I liked this place overall. There are defintly nicer places to stay on the island but this place was a good compromise. Electricity is only on part of the day and the wifi was never working but you can find it at other places. We had to pay extra for hot water which was fine but it should have been noted in the description.

Nice Hotel for a Weekend Getaway
Clean, Cheap and Comfortable Rooms
8
We had a great stay in this resort. The rooms are clean, with comfortable beds and delicious breakfast that came with the reservation package. There are several surrounding resorts that also offer good food at a cheaper price. You may opt to do some lunch-out/dinner-out hopping on the other resorts. You can roam around at your own pace and explore the island. My friends and I enjoyed the balcony where we spend the nightly chitchat after a day's exploration of the island.

Very disappointing - not as advertised
Good breakfast, beachfront

We were a large group of students traveling to Malapascua. We chose this resort based on the description and pictures provided on this website as well as a few others. To begin with - this is not a 3 star hotel. We spent very little time in the rooms, so it was not a big issue, but they are very minimal - more like a dorm room. Note, no toiletries are provided. The dining service was extremely slow - we had breakfast there daily, and the breakfast is very good - but again, very slow. I would avoid coming here for lunch or dinner - maybe it was because there was one cook, but they brought out the meals one by one - with 10-15 minutes in between each dish. It was a bit painstaking. Also, wi-fi does not work well, and certainly does not reach the rooms. We are students and had to check our emails. We had a bad incident that happened, where one of the waitresses knocked a glass of orange juice onto one of my classmates' laptops. She and the owner refused to take any ownership or even to apologize. The hotel owner was extremely rude and kept pointing out that we were in a thirld-world country and we couldn't have these expectations. My group has been traveling all over the world, in "third world countries", and I've never experienced such poor service. There are plenty of nice hotels on Malapascua for cheap - I would not recommend staying here.

Nice, but could be a lot better
We stayed here because we could not get Ocean Vida. The hotel was nice enough, but the rooms could be a lot better and the food and drink options could also be improved

Just like any stay in a hotel.
6
As mentioned above just like any ordinary stay in a hotel. No internet services is something u need to look into. Not very accessible to the management(owner) even we came to know they were around.Reason for us to access them was to ask for help to access a computer to book hotel in Bantayan island our next stop. I managed to get help.some of the food(very simple food) in the menu were not available.The flight of steps to my room were high and far apart. Very dangerous.

It served the purpose
Location, nice breakfast included, a lot of the owners dogs around to pet
6
It was nice, quiet, cosy and comfortable. Only thing is that it take a very long time to get the food served, even for the breakfast we sometimes had to wait for up to an hour.

Inclusive breakfast, clean room, decent air con

Great location on the beach and near to some nice bars. Breakfast basic but nice. Whilst owner was friendly enough on our arrival, the majority of the staff were surly and appeared unwilling.

Very nice hotel on the beach, good service, big and very clean rooms, BUT very noisy: construction work starting at 7 every morning, waking us up... No chance to have a long morning sleep.
