I spent four nights in the excecutive suite of the new wing and i was pleasantly surprised by the hospitality and excellent standard of this beautiful resort near the airport, which was not noticeable at all (no planes flying over or near the location). The hotel staff was always attentive, friendly and helpful. The beach was kept clean, the schools of little fish in the water indicating its purity. The restaurant Allegro's breakfast buffet offered a variety of different cuisine to choose from: tasty , fresh, appetizingly displayed. i especially enjoyed the local filipino treats like puto and bibinki. In addition i thoroughly enjoyed my vegetarian pizza at Delfino's and the refreshing thrist-quenching freshly-made juices at the juiceBar. I received two very relaxing treatments by Ms.Aileen at the Spa, with its peaceful and quiet atmosphere. Housekeeper Ms.Rose was impeccable at making sure i always had new bottles of drinking water. Although i did not require her daily housekeeping, my room stayed clean , towels orderly and my laundry was in perfect condition , delivered on time. This beautiful Resort deserves a five star rating in my humble opinion. Bravo and Thank you Bluewater Maribago, i know where i will be staying when i come back to the Philippines in the near future.

I booked for two nights for my son's 5th birthday celebration. I asked the hotel for birthday freebie and, they delivered. They gave a slice of cake upon check in with balloons, cake and teddy out of the towels.
We also got a room upgrade to Sea view. it was beyond our expectation. the breakfast buffet was so good plus we get to experience Gordon's restaurant on the same building. What an experience!
The hotel staff was also so courteous. They all greeted us with a happy smile whenever they see us. Especially the room service, because we asked for additional tea and laundry bags, they gave us without hesitation.
the best part of the hotel was the sauna and the steam bath. We keep on going back because of it. Not only my son was happy but me and my partner as well. We will definitely stay here again.
• The location is unbeatable—right in front of Alona Beach. Ang sarap gumising na literal ilang steps lang, white sand and clear water na agad.
• Their pools are stunning—may infinity pool na overlooking the beach and may swim-up bars pa. Perfect spot para mag-chill with a drink.
• Rooms are spacious, clean, and comfortable. Malamig ang aircon, malambot ang bed, plus may balcony pa.
• Staff are generally friendly and accommodating. Madaling kausap, lalo na sa restaurant and pool area.
Hotel is quite strict on security (albeit a bit troublesome cause need to scan every time you enter), but feels safe! Service by all staff was great. Help came quickly too when we dialled for assistance. Location may be slightly far from attraction, but there’s a mall with plenty of food options 5 mins away by foot, so it’s ok.
Oh! Gelato in the lobby taste really good :)
I came here for white sand beach. But in fact beach is so dirty... during 5 days I've been here all days were so many seaweed and plastic in the water. One day I even couldn't swim. Snorkeling is poor as well.
Hotel is clean and nice. But there some things, I didn't like.
1. No shower at the beach.
2. Security doesn't do anything with annoying sellers at the beach. Literally every 3-5 minutes I was distracted by locals selling something. I came here for peace and calm. This is annoying so much
3. I asked at the reception can I take phone and pocket to the beach, they said NOOOO it's not safe. Keep all your things with you. How can I relax in such environment? What exactly security do there then?
4. The price for this hotel equal to Marriott, but quality is not the same. I feel economy through everything. Very thin toilet paper. Diluted soup in washroom. And breakfast ... First time in my life I saw cheese cold cuts size 2×2 centimeters. Literally. I paid a lot for this hotel and don't want feel economy vibe.
5. Evening buffet doesn't work everyday. Yeah, it cost not much... but anyway meat there was with bones or soooo hard to chew. Again this economy vibe🙄 was it hard to take a normal meat? Not the cheapest one
6. Check out at 11 am.... what? I've been at 25 countries and hundreds hotels. This is first time check out so early. I asked for late check out and what they gave me is 1 hour more. So basically just a normal check out time. Insane
7. The quality of drinking water is very bad.
8. Ice for drinks probably made from tap water. It's too bad.
9. I feel pressure from sign near elevators. ”Using the stair promotes good health”. I've got a knee injury, I can't use stairs. Didn't I pay enough to use elevator? Or again you wanna save some electricity? Why to put this sign? Again this economy vibe...
So faithful for this place is 6.5/10
But any sense to come here? Beach is so dirty...

Excellent hotel! Very clean and have all the amenities provided. Shampoo, soap and conditional has very nice scent. Bed was very comfortable. Room are spacious.
Hotel breakfast buffet was very good, lots of choices.
Can be very crowded during breakfast timing so go at earlier timing is better if not have to queue.

Came here to celebrate our anniversary. We took our 7 month old with us. My wife wanted to be proactive to see if they had a cot and bottle sterilizer on premise. However the reservation agents we were speaking with online would not confirm one for us. All they kept saying was that it’s based on availability upon arrival. Well after several back and forth emails, they finally agreed to let us reserve one. To me that defeats the purpose of reserving one. They made a simple request(yes or no) a very long drawn out process. Anyways, I messaged the manger on duty when we finally checked in and she was way more accommodating and even gave us a little toy for our daughter. Point is, we went for a family vacation, and a simple request turned into a slight aggregation for us.
The property in of itself was nice. Their breakfast buffet was from 6am to 10am. It was well with food. I liked the variety. For their gym, I wish they had better signage on where it’s at. The restaurants were easy to find and they were pretty good. Cowrie Cove is a bit overpriced for me. The other Resturant’s, Buko Bar and Tides have buffet options that’s way more reasonable than cowrie grill. If we go back, we will eat at those places instead. Overall place is 8/10 for me. Good service, they speak English, and it’s clean. Everything is there too and it’s a short trip to the airport. Pro tip, take grab from the airport versus using their shuttle service. Their shuttle service is 4x-5x the price of grab.

The staff were incredibly warm and accommodating, always ready to help with a smile. The amenities were family-friendly, and we truly felt at home.
Highly recommended for families looking for a comfortable and memorable stay. We’ll definitely be coming back!

a quick overnight stay at quest. ian was generous enough to extend a late check-out as ive checked-in late and considerate in providing me with a corner room with a gorgeous view of the business disrict. bedroom was spacious but needs a makeover. it also has the amenities you need - iron and board included. the bathroom had a weird layout. express check-out was convenient and fast. overall, will stay here again.
Conveniently located above a commercial shopping center, Toyoko allows guest elevator access to Starbucks, pharmacies, restaurants, and supermarkets. Rooms have great views of the city and it is a perfect stay for an unfussy tourist.  It is a budget hotel, so don’t expect grand buffets or fancy amenities. It is, however, clean and well maintained. Staff are super friendly, supportive, and go well beyond their way to make your stay as comfortable as possible. A mere 5km drive to the Seaport, Fort of San Pedro, and the Basilica. 
Very Good

TTheo StanI had the pleasure of staying at the Tsai Hotel and Residences, and it was an experience worth noting. From the moment I arrived, the welcoming staff and seamless check-in process set the tone for a pleasant stay. The location is fantastic, offering proximity to key attractions, dining options, and shopping areas, making it ideal for leisure and business travelers alike.
The room was immaculate, with modern furnishings that combined comfort and functionality. The bed was plush and inviting, ensuring a good night's sleep. I particularly appreciated the spacious bathroom and the availability of essential amenities that catered to every need. The Wi-Fi connection was fast and reliable, which was a great plus for staying connected.
The hotel's common areas, including the lobby and dining spaces, were well-maintained and exuded a sophisticated yet cozy ambiance. The breakfast selection was varied and delicious, featuring local and international dishes that appealed to all palates. The in-house restaurant staff was attentive and ensured a delightful dining experience.
What truly set the Tsai Hotel apart was the exceptional service. The staff went above and beyond to ensure my stay was comfortable and enjoyable, always greeting me with warm smiles and a willingness to assist with any request.
While everything was close to perfect, a minor improvement could be enhancing soundproofing in the rooms to block out occasional street noise. Nonetheless, this did not significantly detract from my overall experience.
I highly recommend the Tsai Hotel and Residences to anyone visiting the area. It offers excellent value for money, a prime location, and impeccable service that guarantees a memorable stay. I am looking forward to returning on my next trip!
JJan EstoyaJust 15 mins from the airport. The rooms are very cozy, cleanliness is 10/10. The facilities were maintained. A bit pricey but worth it. The breakfast buffet menu was different from day to day. Staffs were polite and helpful. Tawala is walking distance from the beach also so really worth the stay.
ННаталья ДроняеваOur stay at E L Westensee Resort exceeded all our expectations! This place is ideal for those who are looking for a combination of coziness, comfort and excellent service.
Our villa was simply magnificent: spacious, stylish and very cozy. Snow-white bed linen and impeccable cleanliness created a feeling of real luxury.
The hotel staff are real professionals! Very responsive, sincere and always ready to help. When we decided to rent a bike, it was delivered right to the hotel - new, powerful, for only 500 pesos per day. It was incredibly convenient for trips to Alon Beach (only 7 km) and to local attractions.
I would like to separately note the breakfasts. The food was delicious, fresh and prepared with love. A real pleasure to start the day with such dishes!
We were pleased with the proximity to the street with cafes and restaurants - literally a few minutes walk. This allowed us to try many local dishes and not depend on transport.
Special thanks for organizing an early breakfast before our departure - everything was ready at 5:30, and the transfer to the airport was waiting for us on time.
E L Westensee Resort is a place where you want to come back! The warm atmosphere, perfect cleanliness and caring approach to each guest made our vacation simply unforgettable!
QqualityonheroineI recently had the pleasure of visiting Fili Nustar Cebu, and I must say, it was a wonderful experience. The facility is modern, clean, and well-maintained, creating a comfortable environment for all visitors. The staff members are incredibly friendly, welcoming, and always willing to assist with any questions or concerns.
Their security measures are thorough, ensuring a safe space for everyone. Additionally, the location is convenient, making it easy to access from different parts of Cebu. Whether you're there for business or leisure, Fili Nustar Cebu provides a professional and efficient environment that meets high standards.
Overall, I highly recommend Fili Nustar Cebu for anyone in need of reliable and top-quality services in a secure and customer-focused setting.
FFulgencio PolThey improve much better than last time, had a water dispenser outside the room, had elevator, free breakfast in the plate limited portion but it’s ok, they don’t provide kettle in the room as they said they have water dispenser outside that can get hot water although not as much hot as newly boiled water, I tried to rent one but very expensive php 150/day seems to me it’s very expensive to charge that much. Other than that staff is very helpful and polite, room is clean limited space especially the bathroom but it’s ok.
BBubbleChimpGood for experienced divers but not for new divers, solo travellers, relaxing beach time or a deluxe experience even though it was £200+ a night so I did not think it was good value.
For me it was just the wrong choice and I didn't do enough research. The main disappointment comes down to me basing my expectations on the price instead of the 3 star rating. I haven't paid that much for a hotel before and usually go for 4 or 5 star places so I just don't understand the pricing, maybe that's just how it is in the Philippines. The staff and service are good, breakfast and the room are ok, spa and diving are the good amenities so it might be the diving location which warrants the price.
Lunch and dinner are good. I recommend the honey yoghurt muesli with mango and the chicken salad (with a dressing) for breakfast. Everything I had on the lunch/dinner menu was great - the tom kha gai soup, Dorado, burger, curry etc all good. Small range of beers and cocktails available but cocktails were good too.
The room and bathroom are fine for 3 star standards. There is termite stuff falling from the wood beams and dead moths or similar insects on shelves which did not get cleaned away.
The Swedish massage was good, I recommend Gail. The shiatsu was painful and pinched my skin so she switched to Swedish. The pool is murky and not enticing to swim in, lots of mozzies around it too.
I much preferred the beach and water conditions further down at Dauin. I like to relax on a nice beach and swim etc. that's where the great snorkeling is too. But the water at Atlantis is too rough and windy and the beach too narrow.
Although the dive masters are great for leading dives and probably for the other diving skills, I wouldn't recommend getting your open water certificate here especially if you're at all nervous about it. There were some differences with the SSI videos like being able to practise boat entry in the pool first and using a snorkel that I would have preferred what with the condition of the water there. The beach, water and entry conditions are so much better 20-30min down the beach at Dauin, Bongo Bongo beach. I managed to earn my open water and it was the reason for this trip but it wasn't a pleasant experience and I watched the divers enter at Dauin quite jealously.
Considering you can do 4-5 dives a day here plus a day for Apo island, I think 3-4 days here would be perfect.
The hotel tour prices were a bit more expensive than others I found and they do not arrange joiner tours so as a solo traveller, their tours were prohibitively expensive. For some reason there were no joiner tours available outside the hotel either, I don't know if that's because of the season (jan-feb) or that's usual for the Philippines but it's the first time I've experienced that in my travels.
The tour to Apo Island is good and well arranged. The only thing is as a snorkeler you have to wait until after lunch to get to the shallow turtle area but it was great and a benefit of going with the hotel is you leave on their boat right from the hotel, no need to drive to the ferry.

GGuest UserI enjoyed my stay in Crimson Resort, the room is big and spacious for families, the staff are friendly and well trained, the four pools are huge and fun and the daily breakfast is delicious. We especially enjoyed the foam party at adult pool and Crimzone pool, the playground in Crimsone, the seaweed collection activity, snorkeling and the complete amenities of the room. Cebu beach is so pretty. Big shout-out to Clint in breakfast for his very warm service to me and my daughter.
Cons:
- There was no housekeeping done on 2nd day of my stay which was not informed to me in advance, I think that was not professional.
- They don’t allow food delivery in but the food in the resort is not that delicious to be had everyday (I tried sisig, inasal and pizza).
- You need grab or taxi to go out to Cebu city (and face the jam) as the shuttle only runs 3x a day, so it’s not convenient if you want to explore Cebu.
JJan_SamService is good, food was good and aquapark pool was great. However, water pressure in the room was low and the pool with inflatable wasnt that nice and a little dirty, not worth it. I still recommend the place for its good price and if you have kids who enjoy swimming. Enjoyed our stay, its our 5th time in Solea.
JJann BungcarasI love the modern interiors! The wall is amazing! The room may be small but very functional. The staff are friendly as well. Just fix the elevator Down button of the 5th floor and we are all good! I love it here. And also fix the cable so we have something to view at night.
