Nice resort near beautiful White Beach in Moalboal. Perfect for people who like lounging on the beach, diving, and/or want a stress free vacation in a resort. It’s about a three hour drive from Cebu City and about an hour away from the typical tourist attractions in Moalboal (hence 4 stars for location). They provide basic soap and shampoo so I’d suggest bringing your own toiletries. It’s better for the environment!

We stayed for a few nights and enjoyed our stay a lot. It‘s only a short tricycle ride to the bar and restaurant area where we went almost every night. The food and drinks in the restaurant were good and reasonably priced. Service was great too!! And our room was clean and spacious. I would definitely recommend this hotel.

I loved my stay at Dolphin House. The facilities are great and staff are helpful and friendly. It is perfect for a family vacation and there are loads of activities to do. Hotel transfer is a lot more expensive from here in comparison to other accommodation in surrounding areas but I understand luxury resort prices. Overall a lovely place.

It was great!! However, I was a little sensitive to the smell of iron in the tap water, so I washed my face with bottled water.
My friend said it was fine!! The view was so good that I wanted to stay there. The outdoor area is right in front, so there are some bugs outside, but
There was no problem at all when I was indoors, and all the staff were so nice.

We did not stay in this resort. Went for an evening meal. The place looks very pleasant, some of the accommodation is older than other parts and it shows. It is a large resort with a lovely pool, just as well as the beach is non-existent. It is possibly the most expensive place in Moalboal, and it shows when you consult the restaurant menu. There is a daily per person fixed price choice of starters, mains and deserts. You can opt for how many courses you want and choose from the restricted choice for each course. Prices may shock some, we had 2 Pilsen beers, a pizza and 2 very ordinary banana split deserts, for P1600. I do think that charging P120 for a San Mig Pilsen is a little greedy but it was served cold in glasses. Stay-in guests may be on half or full board basis in which case the meals are included. Food was acceptable, service good and cheerful.

Very nice resort with wonderful staff. The resort is located close enough to things you want to do or see, but also a calm and quit and you have the feeling of "privacy" from the surrounding. It's a large resort with more than enough space for all the guest. The founder and owner of the resort, Rudy, is always present and he's a very friendly person with many interesting stories. We had a wonderful week staying at Dolphin-House Resort.

Dolphin house was really a nice resort with plenty to do, very good diveshop and away from the hustle bustle of a city. Loved spending time there and soak in the phillippines beach holiday feel. The food was awesome and the portions wholesome and the bartender whipped out very nice e cocktails
Response from Property: Great to hear you liked your stay. You know where to find us for the future. :-) Thank you so much also on behalf of the bartenders and the rest of the staff.

staff in restaurant was very good and friendly food very good and that is where the room was good clean, but the CR/ toilet/ shower was bad and i mean bad the shower was flooded we reported a number of times and no one even came to look at it the shower could not be used. zero room service, as for swimming pool very little to no maintenance it was dirty water we could not use it, i would not recommend this place to stay, its a shame with a little management you could put this place on the map

Overall, we had a great time! The staff was amazing. The property is very nice. The rooms were ok, the beds could be better. The main issue was the owner. He was not very nice. You would expect the owner of the hotel to be more hospitable. More concerning was his treatment of the staff, it is obvious they don’t like him. Otherwise, we had a great time. The food was pretty good. I would stay there again and just ignore the owner. Grumpy old man!
Response from Property: LOL ! Flattering, were you the little group of young spoiled brats that went out swimming in the ocean with our ambarellas.? Next time I'll have Grumpy kick your b...!

This resort is one of my favorite places when I stayed in Moalboal. Reasonable price, friendly staff and clean facilities. It's very accessible to white beach which has some fun activities to do with such as playing netball, snorkeling or having a massage if you fancy one. The Local Cafe is also nearby. I think it is a great spot if you would like to spend time with your loved ones and friends and be isolated from the crowd. I would definitely come back to this place.
Response from Property: Thank you so much "Journey" for taking you time to write a little review. Your first review on TripAdvisor from what I see. That's a special honor for us! Always welcome and warm regards from all the "dolphiners"

Beautiful location, peaceful and quiet but also very easy to get into the village by motor tricycle where there is restaurants and shops. The hotel has a lovely restaurant with set menus with local produce & a happy hour, plus down the steps there is a beach where you can snorkel and enjoy the beautiful sunset with a beer. The nearby beach is great for snorkelling where you can get up close to sea turtles and you can hire equipment from the hotel. Staff are very friendly and welcoming. Would highly recommend to anyone travelling to Moalboal.
Response from Property: Thank you "163ammys" unfortunately we don't know who is "136... Thank you for the recommendation and accurate review! It will be our pleasure to have you again. There's always a little surprise for repeaters, just contact us in time!
