Curbs are cracked and missing large chunks or stone that need repairing. The pools were designed without surface water skimmers so nothing is filtered that doesn't sink to the bottom of the pool or removed manually. Food was excellent at both restaurants!

Could have been 5 stars...

A lot of my stay was excellent, and it would have been 5 stars given all the personal touches. Unfortunately, I was price-gouged for a lid to a pot that I accidentally broke. I was charged $50 (after talking them down from $85) to replace an $18 pot (I looked up the price). It was already heavily scratched... Also, I would strongly recommend they extend the pool bar hours well into the night. It was wildly popular compared to the actual bar, but it shut down way too early when there were still bar patrons. They should also sell drinks and snacks in the lobby (dried fruit from Cebu, cookies, nuts, literally anything) 24 hours a day. I would find myself waking up craving a midnight snack or just wanting something simple to bring to the beach. Given how locked down the property is, a mini convenience store or even a simple vending machine is necessary.
