Great place to stay in Samal”

The receptionist who assisted me was very helpful and accommodating. She pro-actively offered to send my dinner to my room knowing that i just got off the plane and straight to Samal tour. Food in their area for me is a bit pricey. Included breakfast on the room is okay. Pancake with a slice of mango, corned beef rice and coffee. For the smoking travelers, this hotel is a non smoking facility. So you would need to walk outside their premises to go to their designated smoking area. There is a beach in front but i doubt that you can swim in it. I didnt try though. The room has a comfy bed, hot and cold shower and towels. Better bring your own toothbrush though. 😁 Overall for me, my stay was great! Relaxing view. Oh and the owners offered to drive me back to the wharf upon check out for a minimal fee. Thank you Lorelei Resort!

Nicely Secluded...”

I love this resort. We were the only one booked in during this time, so we had the resort to ourselves. Unfortunately, it was a rainy day so we didn't get to stay by the beach. The room was really nice and spacious which was good to stay in. The staff prepared an excellent lunch for us with a splendid view. They were very accommodating and kind. I think they do need to work on maintaining their beach front though so that it could be swimmable. Although, the time we went there was raining a lot and trash from the mainland may have been brought to shore. Not really the resort's fault. All in all it was a pleasant stay. Thank you Lorelei.

Friendly staffs with nice food and good customer service. The resort owners are very accomodating.”

The resort owners are very accomodating and their property has a great ambience, so tranquil and relaxing. Highly recommended to other guests. Lorelei resort is a MUST visit when in Samal. Would love to come back again.

Very peaceful, great value”

What a wonderful couple of days. The owners were on hand and were extremely hospitable. The food was excellent and reasonably priced. The room was nice with a great view and the grounds were so peaceful. The perfect blend of value and tranquility. I’d highly recommend this resort and will return again...only negative is that you have to use your imagination to locate a beach lol, but the grounds more than make up for the lack of sand. Absolutely loved it.

Perfect for Quiet Moment”

The swimming pool is dirty. The sea is not ideal for swimming area. But good thing, the staff are so much accomodating. I must suggest that they should always clean the area. To be honest, the area is not too much tourist friendly because of I think, some possible security issues. Transportation in and out of hotel is pricy due to limited mode of transportation to go in the hotel or wherever place you want to go in Samal Island. But one thing we liked the most is the staff and the owner of the hotel is so much accomodating. Overall, I can say it was an average rate of stay. Thank you so much for these experiences.

Would have been perfect if...”

Our stay was good. The place is not that crowded. We didn’t get the room that we wanted though. We originally booked the Standard Double Room with Balcony. When we arrived, the manager (I think she’s the manager) gave us the Ariel Room without checking our agoda booking details. The Ariel room wasn’t the room we booked by the way. It’s a big room but it doesn’t have a balcony which we were after since we’re celebrating my boyfriend’s birthday. So I went to the reception area to ask about our room and showed my booking details to her. She then said she can’t check her agoda account for some reason. Mind you, we booked this on Feb. 25. Lol So it probably should have been written on their records or something. By the way I texted them that we’ll arrive late beforehand too (didn’t get any response though). So we didn’t get the room because someone else was in there. It’s a friend of the owner she said and that the room we wanted only has a building as it’s view. I’m not sure if that’s true as we saw a lot of room with balconies facing the ocean.. She was very apologetic though and gave us a discount in our current room. She said she’d give us free breakfast too but the room we originally wanted includes a free breakfast so.. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Anyway, she was very polite and kind to us til the next morning. And we appreciate the gesture it’s just that we’re a bit disappointed about the room blah blah. Our chosen payment method may have affected it? As we chose to pay at the property. If we paid via CC, the scenario would have been different? I’m not sure. I’m just assuming. Lol The place was good. They have a place where you can play volleyball or badminton if you want. The pool has a kiddie pool and has a 5 ft pool. Their bar isn’t done yet but the place is cool. It has like falls infront of it which looks cool too but the water isn’t clean though. The beach doesn’t have a seashore or it was just high tide when we arrived so it seemed like it doesn’t have one? Hehe. Some of the

nice”

nice private beach,nice view,nice stuff service, i leave my bag in hotel after checkout ,they bring it to davao to me.thankfull

Very cool building and grounds. Nice view. Free delicious and large breakfast made fo good value.”

Pros Friendly staff. Nice meals. Very clean. Building not old. Close to ferry. Doesn't face city so nice outlook. Cons Cold shower though our fault for not reading room description. Hot shower rooms available for higher price. Not much beach to walk on. Overall highly recomended.

Simple stay with lovely dinner”

Pros: Family kindness welcome Heart warming welcome if you meet owner. If you asked any support, they answer you very well. For activities, ride for another hotel and boat for Davao, even what to eat for dinner. Pros: Quiet place I choose this place for just relaxing with sound of beach and reading. Pros: Meals are delicious They serve you fresh meals, they may have not much ingredients at moment. So when you arrive at hotel, plan with them what to eat for dinner. They have very good chef, and you will be surprised. Pros/Cons: Minimum amenities Not so much amenities and room equipment and I like it, because I always have my favorite amenities with me, don’t want to waste hotel preparation. However, you prefer full of amenities by hotel, you feel unsatisfied. You will get soap and shampoo with conditioner. Cons: Animals next hotel are noisy That’s not their fault, but depend on room you stay, faces neighbors who own farm animals. May be annoying to you.

Value for money”

Room is very clean, staffs are very good as well. However, looking for the signage to the beach resort at night was a challenge. Suggestion: put up better signages, visible enough to be seen at night.

Nice staff, good food..”

This property is small. Hence, the private feeling when you stay there. We love the white sand beach resort. The staff were very helpful and accommodating. Plus the food is delicious. :)

Relaxed & Satisfied!! Thank you...”

For me, it was amazing getaway with my family! My kids loved the place. It was so relaxing. It's one of the most memorable vacation I had spent with my family. The staffs were very approachable. They gave us a warm welcome & excellent service. We felt like it was our own private resort. Nice view most especially during sunrise!!! It was lovely...

Amazing Relaxation”

Thank you to all the staff and owner of the resort. Everything seems perfect. A place to relax, reflect and refresh. I will recommend to our friends to avail this resort.

short holiday for SemBreak”

This was a really good resort for a short holiday and we both enjoyed our stay here. The staff were excellent and made my wife feel she was special. With just a little attention to detail this place could move to a 5 STAR rating

Exceptional”

If you peace & quiet with pesonalized service this is the place for you. It felt that we owned the whole resort when we went there. The staff as well as the owners are so friendly. Will definitely go back!

Value for Money”

The manager is very helpful. Gave us a free ride to the hospital when we need to go there. The staff are accommodating with our requests. Had a good stay at this resort.

Wonderful atmosphere. Menu was great”

Not all rooms have hot water. I little out of the way to do any walking around. No beach. Great private swim area. Food was awesome

Quiet Place”

Overall, the hotel is nice but the rooms seem to lack a couple of facilities. There is a TV, but there is no cable signal, no hot & cold shower and the AC is not cold that you have to use a fan. But nevertheless, we enjoyed our stay. The place is really quiet and ideal for relaxing. The staff are very polite and the owner is responsive. Easy to communicate.
