One of the best resorts I have ever stayed at!”
I was originally booked at at HORRIBLE resort (HOF GOREI) wherein I experienced a slip and fall. I booked here at Chemas by the Sea and all I can say is that it was perfection. They treated me with respect and courtesy. They cared for my well being from the moment I arrived until I checked out. I was really teary eyed because at that terrible HOF GOREI, wherein HG did not even offered me a Band Aid for my injuries! Terrible staff! Whereas at Chema’s, I was treated with awesome caring and professionalism. Thank you Chema’s aand staff!

Awesome serene place”
The hotel is superb! Balinese type with the Filipino hospitality of staff. They are all accommodating and courteous. The facilities - rooms, pool, bar, beach are awesome and the villas are exceptional!!! Just want to share to everyone though that the food's serving is small, if you are big on food, you may need to add more to your budget. Nevertheless, this hotel is the best for us by far and will surely go back here :)

Best spot in Samal”
Nature spot and resort in one. Bali feels, great beachfront, lovely sunset view with Davao City on the horizon, subtle glow at night. Best on a weekday as there's less people.

Good service and value for money”
The best chemas has to offer is its relative privacy and quiet since they do not accept too many guests to maintain its quiet and tranquil atmosphere

Stylish resort”
Our stay here was awesome. The place was uniquely designed. The staff were great - very helpful and polite. I just wish they had more amenities such as massage, a few water activities would be nice too. Although what made up for it was that the staff helped me contact a habal driver to give us a tour of Samal. Amazing tour! Wish we stayed longer

Very good”
The food was not very tasty at all. Our room had no TV cable service. There were no staff available to make technology repair or service. Several staff from the restaurant tried to help but they had no technology knowledge. We were promised the next morning someone would get our TV available, but no one ever arrived and we were not even given an explanation. Of course no adjustment in room rate was offered like in USA. I will give the staff a 10 for attitude and friendliness. In addition no WiFi available. Are we in 2020?

Nice ”
I wish they serve water for free in their resto. It's a little disservice to your guests if you do not. We cannot just drink 1 bottle in 24 hours right?

Breath-taking resort, stunning views, gardens, corals, and beach... will no doubt be back for sure!!”
An absolutely breathtaking resort on the beautiful Island of Samal. This was an incredible experience for me to stay at Chema's their gardens and the resorts beach/corals are truly stunning. The quality of service here was fantastic, I stayed in an upper garden view cottage (which was truly stunning) and all the staff were extremely welcoming and very hospititable. Filipina are very kind and humble people, this was my first stay and visit to the Philippines and I only stayed at Chema's for one night, as I had my accommodation in the City of Davao for my 25 night stay in the Philippines. However, this was an incredible treat for me to experience more of the stunning island and it's people. It was very reasonably priced with great service. I shall definitely return again - many thanks to all the team... hope to see you all again very soon!!! Salamat po!!! James

THE BEST!!!”
i super enjoyed our stay in Chema’s.. location is convenient from city to samal island and they have their own boat service picking you up in waterfront hotel straight to chema’s, fare is enough for boat maintenance. Our cabana is the best, we dis enjoy the set up, the interior, the room, the bathroom and especially the little cabana where we can stay and chill outside the bedroom. The food is great, you know food resort cost something but it is worth it. The facilities of the resort is perfect, beach front, swimming pool which use sea water, those chairs and beach bed in front of the sea is relaxing. We did enjoy our stay. Just want to mention that staff in Chema’s, they are so nice and approachable. They have this positive vibe that shows respect to their guest and they are friendly. Shout out to Jenny, who welcome us in the boat deck. Shout out to Harold, who take our orders and drinks by the sea. To Irene, who serve our dinner and the pusit request, thank you so much. And of course to the person in charge in our Cabana for 2 night, thank you so much Lalang for the warm welcome, for all the request and query we asked, for the food and for assisting us until our last stay in the resort. I will recommend this to my friends, its kind of pricey if you will stay alone, better bring a group to enjoy the resort. I will be back and definitely come back to Chema’s... SOON!!!

My new FAVORITE RESORT! Drinker Friendly, Pinoy Food fanatics place and Beach Lovers paradise!”
Pros: -Beer was 70PHP -Bar is open 24/7 -You have your own person in charge of all your needs (Literally) -Beach floor is really sandy when hightide, no sea urchins nor big rocks (3PM onwards) -Have their own pool which has salt water (Still like swimming on the beach) -Food is really good and cheap! (I recommend their Pinakbet, Sisig and Lechon Kawali) -Place is really nice, no need to worry about the sun because the whole resort is shaded with trees -Rooms are super clean, good interior and spacious (Their bed gave me hard time to enjoy the resort) -Super near to the airport and seaport (Could be at the resort 1 HR or less from Davao Intl Airport) -Experienced electricity blackout for less than 5 minutes (The resort has their own generator) Cons: -Not good for senior citizens because there are a lot of stairs -No other cuisine (All Filipino food) -Low tide in the morning till afternoon (All in Samal Island is like that though)

Fantastic, It was the best stay I have ever had.”
By far the best money I ever spent, I will return to Chema's by the sea on samal for sure, its super quite, relaxing, and beautiful. The Staff were brilliant, we had our own waitress and she went above and beyond making our stay out of this world, she set up a really nice Dinner setting for us on the sea side which topped of the stay there. I even got engaged and Chema's made it all happen. I have stayed at many places before, this one was by far the best and its unique. I promise you you'll love it and affordable, normally service like this is only available to the rich folk.

Great Weekend Retreat”
I booked Chema's after having searched through Agoda. It seemed good value for money for a mid range resort in Samal Island. Having been to the island a week before for a day trip (Precious Resort), I knew for a one night stay we wanted something more. I took a friend from Europe who was visiting. The boat there took 10mins from Insular hotel Jetty and was V efficient when we called them, (200 pesos each way but didn't mind that price for personalized boat taxi). The cottage was beautiful that we stayed in (cost 4800), right by the beach 20m back from the water. I loved the classic design of the cottage - timeless looking with lots of light coming in and quite romantic. Balcony was great to as could sit, eat and drink and watch the ocean amidst the greenery. Resort provides your bare essentials - nothing to flash in terms of entertainment etc. Staff there always on hand to serve you. Beach is small but well maintained which makes a big difference. Happy to see pictures lived up to expectation as well! Will definitely return for a relaxing retreat to that cottage. Good weather helped to obviously.
