I'm unhappy with this hotel. My money was stolen due to their poor management. They didn't help much when I reported it. I didn't find anything to like about this place.

At the hotel's request, we brought cash to pay for the room. However, we were robbed within the hotel, which left us short of cash and forced us to pay our room fee in US dollars. Given our upcoming itinerary and concern for personal safety, we had no choice but to leave. The hotel's dismissive attitude and lackluster handling of the situation left us extremely disappointed.

Great location and beautiful views

Everything.

Eine sehr uriges Hotel welches familiär betrieben wird. Das Zimmer war einfach aber liebevoll gestaltet. Essen wurde immer frisch gekocht.

Leider war der Putzdienst nicht so gründlich bzw. ließ er über die Tage nach. Handtücher wurden nicht mehr gewechselt, Mülleimer nicht geleert, etc. Weiterhin wurde die Rezeption von 4 Tauchlehrern betrieben was manchmal etwas verwirrend war.

Sehr angenehme familiengeführte Unterkunft mit sehr freundlichem Personal & Eigentümerfamilie. Das Resort liegt ruhig und abgelegen. Die nächsten Orte können in ein paar Minuten per Tricycle erreicht werden. Die Zimmer sind groß und bieten Blick aufs Meer - mal mehr oder weniger durch die tollen Pflanzen im Garten verdeckt. Essen ist gut. Bier landestypisch. Cocktails sehr schmackhaft - Empfehlung: Summer Jam ;-) Das Resort hate eine eigene Tauchbasis, die wir rege genutzt haben.

Eigentlich gibt es nichts zu meckern. Man muss halt wissen, dass es direkt vor dem Resort keinen Strand gibt (aber gute Liegen im Garten mit Blick aufs Meer). Die White Beach mit ein paar einfachen Restaurants kann zu Fuß in 20 Minuten erreicht werden.

just check in went well , service staff was friendly and accommodating.

First of all room rate is way too high compared to next door real resort Hale Mana (which we moved to after 3 nights with Blue Orchid). As steep price per night as a 4 stars resort actually is just a 2 stars motel. So you will not get what you pay for because of no amenities such as : Wifi spotty, no coffee in room, no cups, no free breakfast, no safe box, no water bottle daily , no slippers. shower head, faucet are rusty, low water pressure. Family room suite we stayed is just a bare old sleeping quarter built like a medieval circular watch tower with insufficient lighting created a claustrophobic. The property is very small and offers no beach at all, just a seawall and very trashy, rocky short shoreline below. The small swimming pool is for those who come here for diving lesson not for guests who want to hangout to enjoy. Since there is no garden or open space guests just don't know what to do in this limited area and feel suffocating if staying in room for a while. The room rate is high perhaps the of hosting most of European divers (British, Scottish). Non-European guests may not feel the Philippines culture here or South East Asia culture assimilation. The good catch is when checking out, they don't accept visa card which never be mentioned at booking.com but visa info must be provided to get booking complete. The allocution from owner is an long Email with "no visa accepted this time buried in the middle of the email. They should have worked with booking.com on this in the first place when guest is asked for visa card. We feel this is just an entrapment colluded by booking.com and blue orchid. After disputing for a while with the owner(with professional manner), we finally had to gather all the cash in the pocket and shelled out $501USD (included 1 dinner) to settle the check-out process. Guest will be more happier if staying at Hale Manna Resort (Bungalow style, more open space, free amenities, free water sport gears and cheaper)

The whole hotel staff is very friendly. The hotel is in the middle of nature, right in front of the sea, it is wonderful. They themselves offer several tours and bike rental, which is very practical, but the price is a bit steep.

I loved our stay! I only stayed a few days, I wish I could have stayed longer to better enjoy the pool and the bar. Don't expect anything too fancy or sophisticated, but the hotel is very cozy and clean

Everything was absolutely perfect! From the moment we arrived until the time we left, everything was excellent. The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming. We loved the variety of activities that were available, sardine run, snorkelling and diving. Overall, I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a truly exceptional experience. The staff, amenities, and activities were all top-notch, and I cannot wait to visit again in the future!"
