Sandra

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
I don't know how this place got such a good rating. Don't stay here- brown water coming out of the sink, the worst beds like a prison, can't even sit on the toilet since the seat can't support weight. This would be a horribly rated hostel- do not stay here. Left early and for 1/2 the price stayed at Marco Polo Plaza in Cebu - way better. Jails in America are nicer than this

Family Holiday in a Family run Hotel

We stayed with our extended family and a person with a disability. The staff are very accommodating. On two occasions we had to leave early for activity and because it was too early for breakfast service, we are provided with other breakfast alternatives. Thank you to the kitchen staff, especially to Joe Marie and Julius.

lying in online add

nice place to visit and great waterland, could have been nice if not lying in the add online coz you cant walk to the beach in 10 min and very poor internet not working most the time. theres a menu in the room to order roomservice but most the time many dishes are not available!!! when ask about taxi back to cebu they ask way to much and was told if you cant afford it just take the local bus!!! we booked the room only coz it said near to the beach and it was not true.

The pool is good here and that’s about it (however it is pretty dirty at times). When we checked in we did not have any basic amenities such as soap or even towels. We had to walk to reception 3 times for towels, and were told “we’ll bring them to the room” but they never came. Our room was not cleaned for the 3 nights we stayed here. The bathroom floods and our toilet stopped working. We have stayed in a lot of hotels in Asia and this was by far the worst (and also one of the more expensive)

Really nice and helpful staff, but the beds were from plastic!!! So not so easy to give the stars. The day with swimming pool and drinks is very nice. The night was awful. Because of the beds I find it overpriced for 100euro for 2 adults and 2 boys (8 and 9)
