Spa Hotels in Daanbantayan

We specifically visited Malapascua to dive with the thresher sharks — which was outstanding — but we were pleasantly rewarded with an amazing stay at Ocean Vida. The staff, food, bar, room, and dive center were all excellent and it was one of the highlights of our travels in the Philippines. Our fabulous bartender, Grace, was a true standout. The level of service and friendship was amazing, not to mention the best cocktails we’ve had in our month in the Philippines. We have no hesitation recommending a stay at Ocean Vida to any divers out there. PS - did we mention diving with the thresher sharks was an incredible experience? Don’t hesitate - book.

1. The room was large and comfortable. I was amazed when I saw the balcony. There is a welcome drink upon check-in. 2. The hotel has its own restaurant and massage service. The Western food is not as good as it tastes, but it is not bad. The price of the food is 45, 671 yuan, and the drink is 20 or 30 yuan a piece. Massage is about a hundred dollars less than an hour. 3. The hotel is located on the beach. It is very relaxing to order a drink and sit in the restaurant by the beach for half a day. It feels like all the worries are taken away by the blue sea, blue sky and breeze. The children went to the beach to play in the water by themselves (pay attention to safety, our children are older, and we even took the diver's certificate here for 2,000 yuan, which is great value) 4. The people here are simple and honest, and there is no such intrigue. Adults and children will say hello to you when you walk on the road. A crew member's daily income is only about thirty or forty yuan a day, which is not enough to earn a living every day. So please try not to take advantage of them. Once, a crew member gave me a banana. I didn’t leave a tip after eating it (he didn’t show any need for me to tip). When I later found out about their income, I always regretted it. They were so poor. They are so generous to us, I should give a tip, they are very grateful for just two or three yuan. 5. However, the tap water on the island is salty, so sisters who love beauty can buy mineral water to wash their face in advance, otherwise the speed of darkening will be visible to the naked eye. The most common people I see here are families of three from Europe and the United States, with many children. The overall feeling is good value for money

If you’re looking for a serene and upscale resort in Cebu that offers both relaxation and adventure, Kandaya Resort is an excellent choice. It’s a place to unwind, enjoy world-class amenities, and indulge in Filipino hospitality, all while surrounded by natural beauty. Highly recommended for those who want to experience a luxurious escape in the Philippines.

Really nice oasis of a retreat, very relaxing. Great service and staff were very helpful. Close to the beach and nice and quiet with lovely veranda areas. It had rained so some mosquitoes but they can't get into the rooms and the hotel helpfully supplies mosquito coils to burn outside.

It's a bit far to walk to Main Beach. The hostel itself is located in a high location, so you have to walk a lot of stairs to get in once ㅠ Instead, the sea view is good :) The room condition is like a modern traditional house. It was good. However, ants are abundant in each room ㅠㅠ No food in the room, walls. Beds. Tables. Toilet. Balcony...It was an ant heaven

The people at Cocobanas were friendly. Stayed at Cocobana superior deluxe) and recommend it for its close proximity with heater and a/c. The clean the rooms daily. Only feedback was a little wait time, but then again you're at a local beach resort and they're not trained to the service standarss of 4-5star hoteliers that we're used to. So its OK for their standard. There is a 24h local breadshop about 7mins walk to market, located exactly where the market is. Its fresh bread and some cakes (limited range) that are very cheap. Had that for light breakfast being going for the thresher shark dives early in the morning. I find it good to eat something small before a dive rather than dive on an empty stomach. Please consider supporting the locals as the earn very little and here I find them honest and sincere. Supporting them means supporting their livelihoods and also their families. Please also considering tipping them generously if you are grateful for their services. Between dives I walked around to explore the village. I found a catholic church named Virgen de los Desamparados (8 min walk from TSD), where the locals believe in Mother Mary's intercession that helped to protect the locals during the 2013 typhoon. I asked a local about it and he shared that during the typhoon, even though there was damage to the homes and structures, not a single person died. How amazing! Safe stay to all travelling.
