Best Place for Rest/Recreation/Retreat :)”
My family and I went here last week. Weather is as beautiful as the place. Sunny but with cold winds! We had a lot of fun, just strolling around the resort, eating at their restaurant, and admiring the view from their deck. A bit sad lang, since my niece was expecting to avail of the horseback riding activity, but there were no personnel that time to assist us.

Location Location Location !!! ”
Commanding an excellent view over the countryside below, this is really an idyllic get away. The cool mountain ambiance of the place set it apart from any beach resort and in a class of its own. The Flora and Fauna are in abundance, but its the staff that add the icing on the cake, friendly, courteous and just add that something extra. I regret i only stayed one night, enjoying a good value for money meal, before relaxing from my long drive. Highly recommended and would most certainly stay again.

It was a great stay”
We had a great stay at this hotel. The place is so quiet that you can really relax in the view of beautiful mountains. I also love the room and its coziness. Thank you so much La Vista Highlands! :)

Beautiful view”
The view of the mountains was incredible! But I didnt like the less access of showers and bathroom for 8people. For us 8, we have to share just one bathroom and shower. Upon checkin, we were not provided with house slippers, contrary to the signs posted inside. Also hated climbing the staircase (60 steps) going to the restaurant and to where our car was parked. We didnt park close to our villa because the area was too steep and scary to climb up that our pickup was sliding. Have to find a rock to provide traction in order for the stick shift to climb up the incline. The staff were so helpful, courteous and very friendly. Kudos to you all!! And thank you. I guess, we just have to adapt to the multiple ants, staircases and steep landscape considering being on the mountains. Overall it was a memorable and pleasant stay.

Bad Start but Good Service”
The rooms (Africa) that I booked via Agoda takes 102 steps via stairs to reach, and it was really inconvenient since I had my mother with me. I was willing to pay more for the convenience of my mother, but I did not know about it when I booked the rooms. This inconvenience should have been raised by Agoda upon booking. One of the rooms assigned to us was not cleaned up and prepared when we got in. There was still a plastic of trash outside the room and the blankets were still not changed. Good thing one of the staff accompanied us so he was the one who walked to the front desk to have our room replaced. When I booked the room, I specified additional 2 persons; however, I still had to follow up the extra beds, and it was already 5PM. Service in the restaurant was good though. All the staff were very courteous as well. The 3 orders of pork barbecue I ordered were not hot anymore when they served it to us. Food in the restaurant was pricey given that the place is a resort.

Beautiful views from dirty rooms & pool”
It is cold after sunset and during rainy days. Bring jeans & warm jacket. Be sure to request comforter for bed as they won't offer it at check-in. Unless you enjoy being cold! Check the shower for warm water as it likely will be very cold. Give them time to repair hot water if it even exists. Large black ant infestation everywhere look. Cob webs and large amount of dust with sucker bugs all over room. Bed & pillow hard so don't expect good sleep unless you prefer that. Pool cold all day so better make sure Sun is shining to warm you up. Windy cold location so if want to zipline wear jacket and pants. Food is mediocre and pricey. Staff smile and attempt too be helpful. Never saw a manager on duty. Family garden villas are a long walk down stairs and it appears lacking maintenance outdoors near there. Extra comfy and romantic large couch with overstuffed pillows under a roof was very peaceful as we gazed at mountain and hills. Just look out for gold long hair fuzzy worms.

Nice area but the facility needs some updates”
Pros: + Great View, also from Room + Nice Zipline + Good opportunities from there Cons: - We had to ask to clean the room again - Cabinet was smelly - The balcony door was not working properly - The shower door was not working properly and we almost got trapped in the shower - Moskito nets at the windows are not tight In general, the maintenance of the rooms is not sufficient. - Food not very good, especially for vegetarians. Fish and fries are ok. - Staff not really knowledgeable about bus timings to cebu.

Worst hotel stay I've ever had (part 1)”
Hotel grounds are crawling with ants everywhere, the room we booked originally was down a large number of stairs (this was not advertised at the time of booking) and so unsuitable for us with 3 young kids, so we had to upgrade, we chose the Zen Villa (as it also had air-conditioning - the only room they have on the whole site that does!). When we got into our room (after we waited for them to prepare it) we discovered several issues, most notably when opening a cupboard and going to get an extra pillow out of a drawer, an ants nest within the drawer and the pillow covered in ants and now the floor of the room had a large number of ants crawling over it. We immediately reported this to reception, but nothing was done until we chased it up with them over 10 minutes later.

Be prepared to climb 125 every time you want to swim or eat.”
Beds are small- fillipino size To many steps and have the worst ice cream ever. End up not even sleeping there... no one to help you at the bar

Chaotic”
Things were so-so until 20 blood sucking bugs coming out from the pillows in the middle of the night, totally gross! And when we complaint next morning, nobody offered any help because the front desk (who is also the manager) has day off and there was only one guy in the entire resort on duty, but he was clueless about everything, not even trying to apologize or offer to clean the room immediately. My daughter wanted to do the horseback riding, the guy said yes sure and asked us to wait. After one hour he told us that he couldn't find the person in charge of the horse and there was nothing he could do. So yes, basically the only good thing about this place is the view, that's it. It is under-staffed and lack of maintenance and cleaning. And whatever activities they were advertising were not available because the person in charge was always missing. Not to mention there was always nobody around the front desk so it's very difficult to find help if you need anything.

Wonderful hotel in a beautiful location”
I wasn't actually expecting such an experience as we booked La Vista Highlands Mountain Resort. It is a wonderful hotel in a beautiful location, with amazing rooms and fantastic bathrooms, the pool area is beautiful and has nice little bar; it is hard to describe how wonderful this place is. There is a calm and beauty that is remarkable (except when loud outside guests with day passes arrive at the swimming pool). The views are wonderful and the gardens are extremely well kept, walking the grounds is a dream. Great breakfast, all the staff very friendly and helpful - excellent service. The owner’s sister Boot volunteered showing us around Bacolod for a whole day (watch out: they don’t have spare keys of the rooms, so make sure you leave your key with the hotel staff when you go out, allowing them to clean your room while you are out). I can recommend this to families as well as couples looking for a relaxing and very romantic break.

Say hi to Boots for me”
A fantastic short stay at La Vista Highlands. Boots your host is just one fabulous outgoing and friendly people you will ever meet. Great food Fantastic views from EVERY POINT. One of the longest zip lines across the whole mountain loads of fun. Definitely one of the best value for money resorts I have ever stayed in. (Inexpensive)

Great View”
Serenity and the breathtaking landscape are the biggest selling points of the resort. Also ridge villa rooms are artistically designed and well furnished. The staff are polite and helpful. Outdoor activities are available for the outdoor afficionados, like horseback riding and zipline rides. The temperature is comfortably cool and one may see early morning fog surrounding the resort and the valley below. Rooms are a little pricey, but well worth it.

Stunning views”
Excellent for relaxation and the benefits of a cool breeze.Superb views. We stayed in one of the 4 bed villas on "Ridge Villas" - well appointed and good views. Quite a drive up from Bacolod - many hairpin bends. Roads are Ok but advise against it if your car isn't in good order for steep inclines! The car-park at the resort is laughable - like a steep mountain track. Unless you back in, which would be necessary from the road entrance gates, you then have to turn around within the narrow confines of the car-park. Most unsatisfactory which is odd, since so much attention has obviously been give to the design of the rest of the place. Restaurant - average. Mostly Filipino menu. Would have liked to see some Western dishes! Staff service generally good, although restaurant staff a bit slow.
