This is a wonderful secluded, quiet resort. Great to act as a base to explore the islands. Beach is okay and is really an intertidal zone. Provides interest to those interested in nature but not very good for swimming. I would return.

The room had a great view of ocean and the folding glass doors opened completely sideways to expose the entire room. Food, friendliness and service fantastic. Grounds were manicured perfectly. I stay here all the time, and will be back soon. Everything in the room works and spotless. Bed was so comfortable I had a hard time leaving the room. I can go on and on, can't say enough, and nothing to say on the contrary.

Good place for value

This property is off the beaten path but had security and the tourist police station is down the road. We felt safe walking as 4 adults up the road for meals and massages. We had a 2 bedroom suite. The staff went out of their way to ensure we had everything we needed and addressed concerns immediately. For example they turned up our hot water heater immediately upon calling as we had lukewarm water. 2k of laundry was only 200 peso. Downside is breakfast starts at 7 and the 2 tours we did picked up way before this so we missed out. Also breakfast food was cold but they heated up our plates upon request. Also disappointed that only coffe is included no tea. At low tide, the eater behind the hotel was fun to explore. Nice pool.

This place was very clean, the staff were all very nice and friendly, it was quiet and comfortable. The only negative was all the house rules, it had cooking facilities, but would cost 1000 pesos to use, if you brought a 300 peso bottle of wine, you have to pay 1000 pesos to take it to your room as well as an additional 1000 pesos for any food you bring. I have stayed at many resorts and never experienced that, but the food in the restaurant was excellent, but the breakfast could use improvement. But all in all we had a good experience!

The Nordtropic Resort is a wonderful place to stay. The service is exceptional. I was treated like family. The rooms are lovely. The view of the beach from the balcony is spectacular. I enjoyed interacting with locals nearby and watching fishermen come and go daily. The chefs are outstanding and food affordable. I never left the resort to eat elsewhere, it was all so delicious and made with detail to match my preferences requested. I look forward to returning and bringing my daughter to explore more and play with the local kids. As an educator and author working from home online, the Nordtropic is exactly what I needed. I am forever grateful. ~ Paul F. Davis

The good and the bad

The room was clean but in poor repair. The shower did not work and had luke warm water. There was a problem with the valve that changed from shower to bath, which was a weird set uo since there qas no option to have a bath in the walk in shower. The bed was relatively comfortable. There was only one putlet (for two plugs) in the whole room. They did not have an outlet in the bathroom. They even had a lamp without a place to plug in. So weird. The staff was so nice and accommadating. They got us an extension with more outlets. They got us a ride to the airport. The views were nice. The pool looked beautiful but we did not go in. The breakfast was good as well. So, i wanted to highlight the good and the bad. In my opinion the good dod not outweigh the bads unfortunately. I would try somewhere else next time.

Was actually looking forward to my stay but had to move my travel plans up two days and the hotel refused to work with me. I will be back in Cebu a lot and was not asking for anything extra other than a different night ended up just staying elsewhere as the change fee was more than a nights accommodation. My fault I suppose, but would be smart as a business to work with a guest if no cost was involved.

朝食前にアクティビティに出発すると伝えたら、サンドウィッチを用意してくれました。とても親切です。 When we mentioned that we’d be heading out early for an activity before breakfast, the staff thoughtfully prepared sandwiches for us. It was such a considerate gesture.

Totally worth the money

It’s a bit off, but easy to get around with grab. Room is ok, beds are a bit hard. Restaurant makes good food, but the selection is somewhat limited if you eat there more than 2-3 times. Pool is nice, staff is very helpful. Beach at the hotel is really small but there are good options within 5-10 min with a grab. A grab to Cebu city’s biggest mall (SM seaside) takes about 40 min and costs $10-$20 depending on traffic.
