Beautiful property and beach, the staff are so lovely, and food at the restaurant was excellent with lots of variety. Dive Shop at the hotel was also excellent. Always felt safe. Public ferry getting to/from Malapascua was a pain... Overloaded on our way there, and they don't run on time (was our experience both ways and then they charged us more because they didn't have enough people for our return). Worth considering the private ferry option for this reason. However, once you're at Exotic, it's great!

It’s a long walk…

It’s 3*, you get what you pay for. The room was perfectly ok. Shower was quirky, but, worked. Bed comfy, WiFi dreadful. Service was hit & miss. It is quite a long slog from what feels like the heart of this area. Maybe 10-15 mins walk along the beach. It may not sound a lot, but, in 30c + it became a chore, u r hot & sweaty before u get anywhere. Other than the service and location, everything else was acceptable.

Great location Avoid Breakfast

Spacious clean rooms. Hot showers cold air conditioning. Beautiful White sand beach quiet location. 5 minutes walk to local shops and street food. On site restaurant has no ability to cook any hot food. Breakfast looks great but cold even though requested hot !! Avoid the restaurant at all cost. Happy Hour at the bar is only for cocktails NO beer so totally pointless that’s why the bar is always empty… Tried to change for drinks we didn’t order or consume upon check out. The cashier Rude and unapologetic. Lacks any customer service skills.

Min pojkvän och jag bodde här under vår vistelse på Malapascua i 4 nätter. Over all, ett väldigt trevligt boende med härligt läge. Det som drar ner betyget något är den dåliga servicen vi blev bemötta med i dykcentret (som ligger i anslutning till hotellet) där vi aldrig fick hjälp med de dyk vi ville göra utan vi fick enbart svar om att ”come back tomorrow”. Tråkigt då det var en av våra huvudaktiviteter när vi besökte Malapascua. Kan istället rekommendera granhotellet som tog hand om oss mycket bättre

Quiet location at end of developed area, “around the corner,” slightly leeward of the prevailing winds. Menu is large but unreliable. Food okay, but grilled fish always over cooked. Breakfast buffet okay, coffee good. Juice is instant. Usually provided sliced mangoes. Water from tap very salty, regular soap provided does not lather, suggest bringing salt water soap. Room AC slight mildew odor.. Bar upstairs nice but empty of patrons. Found more people enjoying nightlife at other resort up the beach. Great area despite locals trashing their place and amazing island hopping. Nice snorkeling. Chinese scuba fanatics I met there rated it at 9 out of 10.

必要十分。

友達と宿泊しました。 清潔でしたが、エアコンのリモコンが動かず、備え付けの椅子をエアコンの下まで持ってきて、直接操作しなければなりませんでした。そして、ウェルカムドリンクは甘すぎて一口しか飲めませんでした。 朝食はたくさんの種類があり、フィリピン料理からイングリッシュブレックファーストまで様々ありました。出来立ての卵料理をいただくことも可能です。マンゴーがとても甘くて美味しかった＾＾ アメニティもシャンプーと石鹸、タオルがついていて、必要十分でした。外に水着等をかける物干しロープがあるのも良かったです。 こちらのホテルで提供しているスパサービスも料理しました。町なかにもマッサージショップはあります。(ドライマッサージ550ペソ、オイルマッサージ400ペソ)ホテルの方がやや高め(ドライとオイルのコンビネーションマッサージが600ペソ)。ホテルのスパルームはバリっぽい雰囲気で癒されました。マッサージ師もベテランさんなのか、マッサージがとても気持ち良く寝てしまいました。資格証明書のようなものが部屋に飾ってありましたので、安心して施術を受けられますね。 ただひとつ残念だったのが、前日に友達と2人同じ時間に予約をしたのにもかかわらず、1人のマッサージ師が欠勤とのことで1人ずつになってしまったこと。仕方ないこととは思いますが…待っている間はそれぞれひとりぼっちで過ごさなきゃならないので、、、ちょっと嫌でした。そのかわりにチェックアウトの時間を少し遅らせてくれたので、まあいいかなというかんじです。 賑やかな場所から少し離れた場所にあるホテルなので、静かで良かったです。ですが、夜ホテルに帰る時に海岸沿いを歩くのはやめた方がいいかも。真っ暗でスマホのライトが大活躍でした。もし晴れていたら満点の星空が見えたんだろうなぁ。
