Excellent place to stay if you have plans for the Underground river. Make sure you have shuttle service and they will pick you up from this hotel. The staff is great and the rooms are very clean. They have a great breakfast and dining options. I was not disappointed. I highly recommend this place.

I think that the highlight of this hotel is the staff everybody is so incredibly pleasant and attentive the facility is nice but it needs upgrading this is the kind of hotel that has a huge potential for becoming a high end boutique facility with a cocktail hour and more tour activities the rooms need upgrading badly but overall it was a very pleasant experience

The rooms, the property, restaurant were so pristinely clean. All the towels smelled so nice. The room smelled nice. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The only down side is the property is not near anything walkable but it’s a cheap trip by tricycle to wherever you want to go. I would stay here again.

Loved the ambience. We walked through lush foliage to get to our room. Transportation is needed to get around. Be sure to bring a flashlight because "brown outs"(loss of electricity, which happens throughout Philippines)

Great hotel
Great hotel but a little overpriced for Philippines. Make sure they clean your room since once in a while they forget and give you an excuse that you wasn't in your room or didn't ask for it and didn't leave them the keys.

Godt hotel
Godt hotel med gode priser og super pool! Der mangler meget solsengen, men vi lagde os på håndklæder ved siden af poolen. Ok morgenmad. Nemt og billigt at komme ind til byen med tuktuk fra hotellet. Beliggende i meget stille omgivelser
