Great stay at Marcosas”
Great big family room that was clean and well equipped with kitchen and bathroom necessities. We only stayed one night but wish we could have stayed longer. We had a big balcony with lounge chairs and steps leading out to the beach. Close to restaurants and dive shops. 5 star deal on the hotel. Note on the general area (nothing to do with the Hotel but good to know): The beach in Moalboal although beautiful and clear waters, was not as sandy as I was told and hoped. This area especially, Basdiot, is really a diving and snorkeling/island hopping spot. The beach has very short white sand/beach area and in some spots, rocky. We drove to Basdaku to get better beach but that was still not as white sand beach as I had hoped. Also, holy week was just a nightmare in the overall area.

Do not pay before! Internet non existent, generator to weak, unfriendly and non cooperatitve managem”
Since my wife's grandmother died, we asked humbly to move the reservation for a month into June, but it was denied, on a personal call the management even shouted at my mourning wife! So I had to travel alone there. Checking the calendar for the proposed booking date in June I requested, - the resort would have been empty! Furthermore the rooms are cheaply furnished (bamboo)- the air-con is weak and rattles and comes to a stop with a very loud deep humming sound every hour, the TV signal fades for a few seconds every 10 minutes or so. The included breakfast is "ok" if it would not have to be shared with extremely fast tiny ants. Ants are also all over the accommodation so do not bring any candy or drinks with you. Internet speed is zero to a peak of 00.07up/00.09down rate at best, so I just tethered with my phone which had normal speeds. I do not blame the resort for the blackouts, but for the weak generator that does not allow even TV operation. Not in this price category, all other similar priced resorts have full gensets which allow even aircon operation. Therefore the low rating on facilities.

We really recommend this place”
Really nice staff especially Edith, who was so helpful in every way. We was very happy staying here.. rooms nice, big and clean. Nice pool and area and location was great both if you are snorkling and diving because it's close to water. Only minus was that there were no wifi in the rooms.

OK but not great”
We had unit 1, their only cottage with sea view. It's outside of the main compound; walk about 150 meters on a public dirt road to get from the unit to the reception, pool and breakfast area inside the compound. Unit 1 is spacious and clean, with a little kitchenette. Air con worked fine. We liked the balcony from where you have sea view and steps leading down to the beach. We were less Happ with the uncomfortable thin foam mattress on the bed and the late night noise from the Disco and bars right next door. Next time I would et a cottage inside the compound, closer to the pool, quieter, cheaper and probably safer. Overall: acceptable but there are nicer and less costly places to stay in Panagsama / Moalboal.

Just a one night stay”
Only stayed here one night on way back to city. Hotel is very nice. Big room and bathroom , very clean, staff were nice , very nice pool with slide , although never had time to use . Just a couple of silly things let it down a bit. Bathroom door handle sticking out as fitted the wrong way round, and toilet seat didn't fit toilet properly .But a nice resort and would stay again

Great location, good value, rude staff”
The cottages are near Panagsama beach and walking distance to nightlife and minimart. Great spot for sunset. Rooms are basic but hot water shower and good pool area. Wifi only works in bar area. Guard was very rude about friends who were sitting on our balcony, with no advance notice that this was not permitted. Check out took ages as the receptionist challenged what we were saying and we heard her say something about us being British. I asked about diving and they just told me the name of a dive school, no info or recommendations or directions. Corkage for drinking your own alcohol was a joke. Did not have any good encounters with the staff during our stay.

Good stay”
Close to restaurant/bar area, good pool and great poolside bar/restaurant/staff. I paid 50USD a night, which I think is ok, but if you can get it for cheaper it makes the hotel that much better. You can relax by the pool all day sipping cocktails or hire a boat for some snokeling, and swimming with the sea turtles. The beds here however are not good. I don't know if I could have slept a third night on those beds. Very thin mattress means a sore back the next morning. If they could just invest in some better beds this place would be really really good!
