Amazing stay at this resort - the grounds are beautiful and the staff will go above and beyond for you. We came for the whale sharks, the hotel organised for a tricycle for us for both days and the lovely Walter drove us around. Walter even came with us to the whale sharks, retrieved our tickets, checked us in, organised the go pro and waited with us to make sure we got on the boat which made the whole experience easy for us, he was amazing. The hotel organised a delicious breakfast box for us to take. Thank you so much!

This is delightful small property just north of “downtown” Oslob. The rooms and property were very tastefully decorated. There’s even a small beach. The food that we ordered was generally good. The staff are very accommodating and nice and will help you make reservations for whale shark viewing if you request it. There is a laundry conveniently located across the street so you can also get your stuff washed! The whale shark center is about a 30min tuktuk ride away. Expect to pay about PHP300 per head for this service (in addition to the price of admission to the whale shark center) but it included the driver guiding us through the somewhat confusing process of actually getting on a boat to see the whale sharks. It’s well worth it and also includes stops for other sightseeing afterwards (but not any additional costs of admission to these locations). We also had a very nice conversation with the owners. The husband is a Nikon photography ambassador and some of his shots are on display in the dining area. My one regret is I didn’t have a chance to chat with him more about photography!
The rooms could use a light comforter on the bed. We’re not used to just sleeping with a light sheet as a cover…

Private access to the beach, lovely seafront view and spacious room. Staff were very friendly and helpful. They also had a nice bar located across the road which had a nice chilled vibe. I liked that they also had clothes racks outside the room to dry any clothes that needed hand-washing (e.g. swimwear).
Water pressure in the shower was a little too low but was manageable. Being a foresty area, it is fair that one would expect to encounter a cockroach or two. We had one in the room early in the morning prior to checking out and let’s just say there was some screaming and a panicked evacuation of the room. So just beware if you’re terrified of roaches like me. Otherwise facilities were super clean.

The staffs are very respectful, friendly and jolly. Our breakfast meal were packed to bring along with us when we went to Whale Shark watching. Overall, we enjoyed our stay.
Suggest to remove the throw pillows placed in the beds and replace with another bed pillow instead to make it two bed pillows per bed.

-Great sea view from all rooms. -Every food was super tasty. We loved fresh Calamari, Shrimp spring roll, and Allio Olio.They were fit with white wine very much.Crub & Cone soup was extraordinary too. -We could enjoy planetarium-like starry sky at night from deck at 3rd floor. -Owner kindly supported our whale Watching tour & fan diving. -All staff were very friendly & always smile. They helped to catch local bus for Cebu city. -You can use laundry service at the laundry shop just crossing road (40p per kg).

We had two beautiful days/nights here. Its a lovely setting right at the water with amazing view. Clean rooms. Nice bedlinen and aircon. Food in the restaurant was good, so during our stay we did not dine outside enjoying peaceful and calming hotel ambience. If ever in Oslob again, we would definitely stay here again 💖 Joanne who assisted us with the booking was amazing.
Bathroom is a bit outdated, the water pressure in the shower is weak and the shower curtain is too short, so the water splashes all around the toilet floor. Also it would be nice to have bedside lights, and brewed coffee in the morning instead of the instant one. But these all are really minor things. There was a bit of confusion communicating with staff in the hotel but they were all friendly and trying to provide best service they could.

Love this place, the owner and crews are very nice . They try their best to provide excellent service to us, in providing transport for the Whale watching. They specially prepared local dinner for our anniversary and with a complimentary wine. Given a full sea view room. Prepared packed breakfast for our early departure for tour.

This resort is just gorgeous. The rooms we stayed in were brand new and we loved sitting out watching the moon over the ocean at the end of the night. It was smaller than I expected, but perfect for us.
The only challenge was that we didn't have enough cash and they didn't take card payments for dinner... same as the restaurant next door, so we had to jump on a tuktuk to get the 8 minutes into a restaurant in 'town'. It's not walking distance to much - but we enjoyed our tuktuk adventure! The staff were helpful in hailing one down and ensuring we were charged the right amount.

Loved the hotel . Very quiet and out the way. Liked the fact the staff didn't bother us much, even considering we were the only guests in the hotel. Staff were very friendly and helpful Room was clean Food was ok Location was in a quiet area. About 30min walk to nearest little village where there is an atm and a small mall Views were amazing. Could watch the sunrise every morning Loved the fact the hotel had its own little beach
Air conditioning is the room was very noisy so didn't want to leave it on all night, but there were no windows that could be left open so we had to leave it on. I bought my earplugs so wasn't an issue for me but my bf didn't sleep well. Could do with some ceiling fans in the rooms just to circulate the air a bit, rather than leave a/c on all night

I had a great time thanks to the amazing staff and the owner who all made my stay special. Very caring, attentive and always so kind! Helped me to arrange trips, suggestions where to go, and good tips about transport. The place is new and everything is fresh and clean. Lovely breakfast, tea, coffee available all day. Drinking water free for you to top up your bottle any time. Quiet, peaceful environment to chill out on the terrace watching the most beautiful sea horizont. The bonus was the sun roof terrace where I could practise my yoga in the morning and evening.
The location is a bit far from everything, but it's always easy to catch a bus or a tricycle right in front of the house.
