Buena Vida is a beautiful resort. It has a beautiful vibe and very cozy and homey feel. The staff and cleaners all made us feel welcome upon arrival and made sure we felt comfortable and that we were free to ask for anything we needed at any time throughout our stay. We were also able to request a romantic package which is perfect for couples. It includes a spa massage, a private jacuzzi and an intimate dinner for two which is perfect for anniversary celebration. I highly recommend Buena Vida resort if you are planning on making a visit to Malapascua Island. We cant wait to be back.

We were very happy staying at Buena Vida. The place was clean and comfortable and to me what made it great was that the staff was so helpful and polite especially the main receptionist we called her “Nelly”. The bedroom was well equipped and the breakfast was delicious, and there is a resting area for own room with couches and a hammock
