A wonderful six night stay”

You know it will be good when the proprietor greets you on arrival, and it just got better. We had a cabana, independent and private and great view. Well appointed, throroughly cleaned each day. Very effective aircon and wifi that was good though a little tempramental. The surroundings were well kept, beautiful grounds, flowers, trees, quite idyllic. At low tide you can have a great walk along the beach but bring your shoes! Service was excellent in all areas. The receptionist Archie, the restaurant staff, housekeeping. We ate every day at the restaurant, and most meals were excellent. Our only disappointment was not enough fresh fish - most was frozen. The resort is some two hours plus from the port so be prepared. It is wonderfully quiet and peaceful which suited us perfectly. My wife made her first dive courtsey of a very patient and willing dive centre on site. Great people. Overall and excellent stay and highly recommended.

Great service”

This is the place to go if you want to get away from it all. Somewhat in the middle of nowhere, but civilized enough to have a decent internet connection (though Globe signal is bad). Their numerous photos posted online do not lie. Whatever you like (or do not like) will be there. What stood out for me then was the service. They have a whopping 1:1 staff to guest ratio, at least! Moreso if you count Peter, the owner, who fuss about everything just to make sure you're comfortable. There is probably no food outside of the resort. However, their restaurant is reasonably priced ($20-30 per day per person). They have enough options in the menu to last you for a few days, and their happy hour is generous at 10am-6pm! In my opinion, the beach is too shallow for a swim during low tide, and has a lot of sea grass and sea urchins. But it must be great during high tide. The sand is fine and the shore is relaxing. Their pool is both for leisure and laps; I could not complain.

Very nice and quiet spot to relax”

The Resort is quiet and a bit off from the mainroad and public > this makes it Special peaceful and quiet for relaxing. The cabanas are very nice and clean and well designed & layouted. Especially the Restaurant and bar are in a excellent look (old style wiht jazz music) and the Food and the beverages are also excellent. The beach is very Close and no big numbers of other peoples. All in all Execellent. . . . . an only little negative is, there is no choice to go out in the evening . . in e.g. Anda or Guindulman is more or less only for locals nothing to do. . . . . . But for relaxing is this Resort with its very frienly staff a HOT SPOT >> just fully to recommand.

Beautiful hotel in ANDA Bohol”

Big surprise. The hotel is beautiful. Hotel garden amazing, Accomodation georges, clean, facilities great. The owner of the hotel is very nice guy and he does the best job with the hotel. Great bar and super restaurant with delicious cuisine! The beach is not for swimming, quite low water but you can walk around and find better place for swimming. You can also use the hotel pool which is part of beautiful designed hotel resort. Best place, best service. Most recommended!!!

Ocean front resort with beautiful garden ”

It was my first time to go to Bohol. The trip to the resort in Anda was long but it was worth going there. It was good that the driver arranged a tour visiting 3-4 must spots in Bohol on the way the resort. You will find the quiet, peaceful paradise once getting to the resort. Whole resort is very well designed. The room was just comfortable, all staff were well trained to respect the guest to have relaxing days and the owner Peter was attentive to all guests there. (His story to come to the Philippines and start building the resort was interesting.) He welcomed upon checking in, showed up during the dinner time asking the guests if all goes alright, and gave a fond farewell…. The restaurant has got good atmosphere with nice old jazz music at dinner time. I did not dive but there is a nice diving shop in the resort too. Basically, this place is perfect to have ‘’forget about reality kind of holiday’’, Just walking around the neighbor shows you rural life in Bohol. People there were peaceful and friendly. Especially anyone who are riding motorcycle on the street were happy to show me around if you stop them and ask about Anda. Visiting some caves is also must. My favorite was a Virgen Cave (it was spelled like that but maybe it is Virgin…). I literally did not plan anything during the stay and just walking around, floating in the ocean and laying down on the beaches. I would love to come back to refresh my thoughts and life. Thank you, Peter! Thank you, all staff members!!

Had a very nice and relaxing stay but hard to work because of slow internet”

Place was more beautiful as compared to nearby resorts. Beach front, dining area and pool was all pleasing in the eye. Room was also comformtable and spacious. Bathroom is clean. Staff are kind and very accomodating. The only issue is the internet. Their internet is not that stable so i was having a hard time doing my work. Even the data signal is week for all networks. It was frustrating at some point. If you want to have a decent internet connection you'll have to go to the town proper which is a hassle.

LOOK NO FURTHER!! really!”

We stayed there 4 nights then we where supposed to change to another hotel near because this place was fully booked. We where lucky that someone cancelled so we could come back to this hotel! don't be confused by the old style logo, this must be top 3 in the area. Place is small in rooms but big in spaces, peaceful, with the Philippine warmth and a huge pool that allows swimming and also includes children areas. The rooms are big so you can fit even 2 extra beds in the rooms and you will be fine. So just to wrap up don't look any further...just book here.

Great location, terrific service”

This was the nicest place I have stayed in the Philippines, having lived and traveled in the country and speaking the local language. The facilities were excellent and well kept, the food very good, the view idyllic, a very relaxing place to spend a few days at the end of our trip. Most importantly, Peter has built a culture of customer service among his staff that surpasses anything I have seen in the Philippines... thoughtful, warm, genuine, and proactive. We really felt like special guests here!

Super chilled out, quiet and friendly”

The three nights we spent here were so nice. It was the first time we slept through the night since arriving in the Philippines. It’s a bit away from Anda which makes it nice and peaceful. All rooms seem to have easy access to the beach and it was just beautiful. I’d recommend taking a walk to see the cave pools (about 25 mins walk). We highly recommend this place and would definitely come back when we return to the Philippines

Tranquil Location”

This resort is recommended to those who want to have a peaceful and calming vacation. It is a beachfront resort. You just have to wait for the proper tide so that you can soak yourself in seawater. The sand is very pristine. It has their own bar and restaurant which is very private. It may be a good thing that their location doesnt have good signal so that nobody can disturb your vacation. But, they do provide wifi for your data utility.

Best resort in Anda!”

The rooms are clean, spacious and beautiful, the staff is super friendly and easy to talk to. The owner is very nice and to me, he made a small paradise resort that everyone should visit when they’re in Anda

We fell in love with Island View”

We spent a wonderful 3 nights at the Island View resort. Its a small resort, quiet and friendly, which made for a lovely relaxing experience. The staff were very attentive and catered for any request we had, and the food was delicious with a good range of dishes. We would recommend trying the more traditional Philippine dishes, yum. We will definitely be back.

Paradise Found”

This is one of my favourite places on earth. Brilliantly basic - no TV barely any WIFI (just enough)...off the grid in simple comfort in the most beautiful quiet space with the best staff and most gracious host

Excellent and Superb Hotel”

Very accommodating staff and even the owner Peter. A great place for us couples and even for families or events. Our cabana room is clean and very relaxing. Highly recommended resort.

EXCELLENT EXPERIENCE”

From staff to owner i could not ask for more....the place is really perfect for family, relaxation and communing with nature. Peter the owner was like a father to all...Mabuhay ka... Jenny you are excellent, everything was superb

Best accomodation in Anda”

Highly recommending this place because its clean, friendly staff and owner and ambiance is perfect for couples and/or with children. Thank you Island View Beach Resort

Excellent restaurant! ”

We stayed for 5 nights and ate at the resort's restaurant each evening. The food never disappointed and, for us, it's an important part of our holiday experience. The staff, right up to the owner Peter, were friendly, professional and welcoming. It's the prefect place for peace and tranquility. We hope to go back.

Best Stay in Anda”

If we’re talking about value for money, this us the best hotel in Anda! It’s right in front of the beach and has a tasteful beach vibe. In- house resto is fab too! Super yummy and easy on the pockets. Definitely worth every penny!

Excelent”

Amazing place far away from turistic crowd. If you want just to relax it is very good choice. Very good staff and excelent food and wine in the restaurant. Hotel is very small ( kind of butique hotel) with just 8 rooms. Rooms are large.
