Best Sumilon Island Hotels

"He went on to say that the swimming pool in this restaurant was not marked at a depth of 7 feet, so a lifeguard came to save people. The reason for this serious review is that I hope you won’t be like us and wasted two nights without seeing a whale. It took more than 5 hours of chartering a car from the Cebu Sheraton to make my head spin, but the result was still futile. Snorkeling for 200 pesos was just average. General. Maybe 90% of the occupancy rate is that everyone is making dumplings and gathering next to the only beach on the island. It's not a bad island, but the price/performance ratio is low and the transportation is inconvenient if you go from Cebu. The food wasn't great either. Whale watching depends on your luck."

"That was the best experience! We arrived by ferry from Panglao to Oslob early morning. Came to hotel. Even check-in time was 14:00, the host took our luggage and opened the room earlier. It was 9 am, so we even managed to go to whale sharks same morning. Shuttle from hotel took us to place, where special guide meet us and guided to boat. Everything was fast, we didn’t stand in a line, no waiting at all. Also hotel organises tours to Sumillon island and Turmalog falls. Exceptional service! Rooms are comfortable, very clean and spacious. Highly recommend!"

"Замечательный отель! Милая девушка на ресепшене. Всё рассказала, где байк поставить показала, на снорклинг с китовыми акулами записала. Гид нас пораньше разбудил, провёл на место, минуя всю очередь посадил в лодку (в очереди все те, кто самостоятельно пришли, без тура. Цена практически такая же, а времени уходит очень много именно на стояние в очереди). Кстати, отель в 500 метров от плавания с китовыми, что тоже очень удобно. Номер тоже понравился: чистый, красивый, удобный, с прекрасным видом на лес (вверху). Единственное, что внизу дорога и ночью большие фуры, проезжающие мимо, нас будили. Наверное, лучше брать вид на другую сторону. Кто захочет остановиться в этом районе острова, нужно учесть, что как стемнеет можно не найти где поужинать. Так что позаботьтесь об этом заранее."

"Overall, we liked everything We rented for 1 day to see sharks There is a kitchen downstairs, we ordered carbonara, after moalboal it is tastier here It is noisy because the hotel is along the road"

"It’s very strategic. It’s near the Whale shark diving and Sumilon Island. The hotel has heater and airconditioning but no hygiene products like complimentary tissue. There is a bath towel but no floor mats so it was muddy after going to the beach. It’s 2 minutes from the beach but you cannot swim there because of whale sharks. Restaurant is also 2 mins away"

"This is a super hotel, so bright with a new renovation. But the most important thing is that the staff are very kind people who help with everything. Kent is a very nice guy, he booked us a queue for an excursion to the sharks at 5 am, we went to get the queue. Then we came back and went to bed. At 6 o'clock our turn came, we returned to the sea. He agreed that only the guys from our hotel, 8 people, were in the boat. We also rented a GoPro through him for underwater filming. And through the hotel we also booked places on a boat to Bohol. The location is excellent, 1 minute walk to the place where you can swim with sharks. The room is clean, the towels are snow-white. In general, I liked everything."

"It is a sufficient facility nearby if you are just to watch sharks. I arrived when I walked about 5 minutes. The shared part of the shower and toilet was clean. The water pressure is not strong"

"Take a 5 pm cargo ship from the LA LANA pier in Tin Island to the LILO-ON pier in Cebu. It's dark at 7 o'clock ashore, take the last yellow bus back to Cebu South Station, and tell the ticket seller the name address, about 10-15 minutes almost there. When checking in, take the initiative to ask if you want to see a whale shark. If needed, provide early calling and queuing services. A 50ps service fee will be added on the basis of 1000ps. The booked triple room has poor conditions and must be mentally prepared. After all, it is only one night. The next day at 5 o’clock, someone called the door to wake up, walked about 8 minutes to the whale shark point after the assembly, and started to watch the whale shark at about 6 o'clock. The first boat set off and the store agent was very powerful in line. The other is their own restaurant. The dishes are very delicious and definitely the most delicious in 9 days in the Philippines! !! !!"

"The hotel is 1 km from the sharks' area, walking. The bus from Sebu has stopped right next to the bakery behind the hotel. Everything you need (including the teapot, the fan and hot water) is there. The bakery works 24 hours a day, next to a restaurant with stunning views on the sea. But the main thing is the manager of the hotel Fin, who quickly booked the time of swimming with sharks, took over and back and took 100 peso for the service! He also organized a transfer to the ferry, pre-specifying the time of his departure on a particular day. Very lucky he was so effective and ready to help! The hotel was noisy from the route, but I am very sensitive to the sounds."

"If the breakfast is not high, it ’s still good. Our twin room for two adults and four children did n’t require extra money and extra bed. It ’s very convenient to bring children. The location of the hotel is very convenient. Parking is also convenient. However, the hotel phone can not be reached because there is no signal or anything, the contact is provided by email, Ctrip service can provide, we are family free. I was relieved by the bus because I didn't know the time until 9 o'clock in the evening, and I communicated with the boss through emails along the way. The boss is a gentle girl who can help buy tickets to see the whale sharks. Her uncle helps to pick up and drop off. The price is reasonable. The hotel is near the road to see the whale sharks. The domestic traveler next door also gave snacks to my children. The people along the way were very warm and friendly. Although in the eyes of Chinese people, it is relatively backward, but people are really friendly."
