Nice enough resort.
Good snorkelling around the island.
Black out curtains are needed for the rooms as the garden lighting is really bright.
Food is ok.
Good place for a couple of nights.
Very nice relaxing place to visit. Some of the most crystal clear and beautiful waters in the Philippines.
Very nice infinity pool. Great snorkeling all around the island. Also decent hiking trail.
Rooms are really nice, great views and very comfortable.
A bit expensive but well worth it.
The breakfast and dinner buffet was awesome. The staff are so accommodating and will help you with anything and very friendly the sandbar and the beaches. The whole property is magnificent. It’s just a whole different world in Paradise. Would definitely recommend this to anyone beautiful place great atmosphere very peaceful.
First, the island and surrounding waters are absolutely beautiful. Second, like most all Filipinos, the staff was excellent and happy. Third, the rooms were amazing. Very beautiful and very well laid out.

Super disappointing. Didn't deliver on promise
The website gives an inaccurate impression of the island.
On the positive side, the staff were very friendly and helpful.
On the negative side, I had to pay 3,500 PSP to get the boat from the mainland to the island. We had already arranged for a driver from the hotel to pick us up and get us to the mainland dock, but he didn't connect with the 2pm ferry, so we were left waiting until 4pm or pay.
The whole island is infected with ants. They are everywhere, in the bathroom, the bedroom, the resturant.
We paid for breakfast and dinner buffets. Neither were a buffet. Both were a very limited ala carte menu, and some of the items they had run out of.
Beach is crushed coral, not sand.
The hotel closed with 1 day to go on our booking due to Hurricane Kristine and made all the guests leave at 9am. This was a gross over reaction and I think was more of a commercial decision than a safety decision as there were few guests and probably not enough to make it profitable.
Amazing island, all the staff were very kind and friendly and so helpful. I booked 4 days and only stayed 2 days and they even transferred my remaining days to their other resort, thank you so much Bluewater staff

I like the area its very quiet and relaxing, just need to improve the communication when making reservations tried to contact property but no reply other than that we have a great stay
It’s a small piece of paradise! Really liked the infinity pool facing the sea, with a tree in the middle. It’s really peaceful. Staff is great also.
A few mishaps with the transportation back and forth. Just set the rate and apply it consistently.
Staff extremely friendly and helpful.
Buffet especially morning was plagues by birds eating food from buffet line flying into food. Extremely unsanitary

I didnt get offer with the membership! Also you cant really enjoy the island if you arrive later in the day because you have to leave to ride the last trip of the boat which is 4:30 pm. I think they should have A later boat too for the people who arrive late for the 2500 charge day tour!
We were not aware that you had to get to boat ramp by 4pm, hotel policy is checkin at 3 or later, we got to boat location and was told TOO LATE, ask for a refund for first night was DENIED, impossible to talk or find management...DO NOT BOOK THIS PROPERTY IT IS MISLEADING about boat not traveling after 5pm even though policy states check in 3pm or later
The property has stunning views. The staff is very nice. The rooms are very spacious and nice. I saw a few people post about the rooms being out dated, ours was very modern. We had the private pool room and for $300 USD per night it was fair for the room that includes breakfast and dinner buffett. Unfortunately the food is absolutely terrible, ive had 2 and 3 star hotels around the Phillipines with much better food. The other negative would be the price of anything you buy. To give an example a can of coke is $5.50 USD, in comparison just down the road innthe same town, at a restaurant you can buy it for $0.50. We had a wedding on the main land and they only run boats back to the island 3 or 4 times a day. I said no problem I'll find a private fisherman to take us back after hours, they wont allow that, you must pay them $90 USD for the 9 minute boat ride. In comparison i had a local lined up that was happy to do it for $10. Another thing they need to address is the communication, they have a lunch buffett, they dont tell you it's not included or even tell you a price, but when you check out its $30 USD per person and they add it to your room. For comparison an all you can eat buffett style with much much better quality food 10 minutes away is $7. We definitely won't stay here again, we wont recommended this to any of our friends. If you're going to spend this kind of money in the Philippines you might as well go to Siargo or Palawan.
A nice resort, the pool area however is tired and run down and in need of renovation. We spent most of our time at the beach for this reason. Rooms are lovely and breakfast and dinner is great. Very overpriced compared to the rest of the Philippines - we paid US prices for a massage but got equally as good massages elsewhere in the Philippines for 5% of the price here
