Hotels near Balicasag Island Marine Sanctuary

"Breakfast buffet is word class. However, the menu is mostly catered to the Korean guests and does not depict the true essence of Filipino cuisine"

"Great private room. Perfect place to stay for budget travellers/divers. Everything was clean, and having 2 pools was a nice luxury. Only negative is that breakfast was quite poor. Would recommend booking the room without breakfast. "

"One of the best properties we’ve stayed at anywhere in the world and best all inclusive breakfast we’ve had anywhere in the world as well!!"

"The property was wonderful, clean, and enjoyable. The staff were very friendly. I would definitely stay here again!"

"A lot of choices for breakfast and staffs are all nice and it was really clean hotel."

"The food was some of the best I’ve tasted in the Philippines. The staff is so kind, helpful and professional. I would go back and recommend to anyone looking to visit Panglao."

"Friendly staff and the room was so"

"Good job for all the staff. I am not a fan of dogs lingering around the resort especially in the dining area and barked loudly every now and then. I understand the resort owners owns the dogs. This is a business establishment, not a kennel resort. Would’ve been nice if they were kept distance away from resort guests at all time. I would’ve enjoyed my stay entirely if not for the dogs. Other than that, staff did an awesome job to make my stay comfortable. "

"It is unfortunate that I have to write this and it does not bring me joy to do so. We ended up leaving a night early to cut our losses because of the unpleasantness of our stay. TL;DR Inhospitable, unclean, and overdue for a renovation. This place is run down and overdue for an audit. Main issues: 1. Cleanliness - bathroom full of mildew, easy bleach cleaning could have solved this. Plastic signage covered in mildew needs replacing. 2. Damaged furnishing - broken cupboards, ceramic wear, faucet, shower. 3. Inhospitable restaurant - after a long travel day we had hoped to dine at the restaurant. They offered, with attitude, to make us pizza.. instead of offering a full menu. After we declined they suggested we use GRAB to order food. We had issues since we had to download the app and add our cards for the first time. Problem on GRAB end, resolved with tech support. But we had to go into town to get dinner. 4. Dirty linens - sheets had stains, upstairs tablecloths had holes, rust spots on silverware, bleach stains on ALL towels provided to us. Things that should have been replaced seem to be in rotation and left a sour taste in our mouth about the rest of the housekeeping. 5. Toilet seat in room 210 was cracked- safety issue! It was also growing brown bacteria from the cracks indicating long term neglect. 6. Missing remote - only one AC remote for two units. 7. Malfunctioning safe - forcing us to carry all valuables Front desk ladies were apologetic. Look elsewhere "
