They advertised free Wi-Fi which is one of the critical requirements for me to pick a resort. But when I got there I found out that there wi-fi was turned off indefinitely and they acted like it was nothing. I work a lot, and vacations are really important to me. But because of my business I can't really take off for a vacation if I can't connect via Wi-Fi.

Rooms disappointing and over priced
They couldn’t find our booking, had to change the air conditioning as not working. Shower not working at all. All the bedding was clean but very musty. No free breakfast which was included in the price. Their kitchen was closed. Very disappointed in our room. Apart from that the place was lovely and clean great location. 3 swimming pools each with a lifeguard and the staff very friendly. Just need to do maintenance on their rooms and cleaning. No offer of discount either. We over paid as the costs were a lot cheaper at site.

Not an attractive property
The room had a four panel folding door for the washroom. This door was broken and could not be closed or opened. Maintenance could not fix it. In addition to the door issue, the room was not properly prepared - no toilet paper etc. Eventually we were moved to a better room. However, based on the condition of the overall property we did not stay, even though we could not recover our money.

Good day Mr. Charles! We greatly appreciate your feedback! Indeed we have the greatest view with mystical sunset in town. We are sorry about your food.

We assure you on your next visit that you will not be anymore disappointed with our food. Thank you so much and have a great day! ☺️

I have stayed here many times over the past 5 years now. This is the most fun and relaxing resort in Bacolod. It's not the most luxurious but it is kept up well and the staff is absolutely the best, anywhere! The food is great and well priced. IF you can even book a room here. It stays full on the weekends. My wife enjoy strolls along the property. The kids love the pools. They have weddings and and other events here that make you feel wanted and nice to watch. If your lucky enough Princess (her real name) will be working and great you with a big smile and a welcome. Everyone will great you with a warm welcome.

Noticed it was looking run down, but entering tue room and smelling urine from the bathroom was tue point i realized i messed up. Bathroom had urine on the floor for who knows how long. Beds were not cpean still smelled sex from tue last people who stayed there and perfume and armpits. Every amenity is charged to use it. Taking a walk down the paths led to what looked like tye edge of a landfill. Trash by the ton left on each side even trash in the water. Ate the food second night had no choice and was made ill. Water said to be filtered was not potable. Was the pits of the pits absolutely a never again.

Great if you like old, run-down properties!
Upon arriving it took staff over 30 minutes to locate the reservation. Even after providing a copy of the booking ID and the Booking Confirmation email. The initial room was extremely noisy as the neighbor (adjoining room) had 8 guests in it. We were relocated to a smaller, less expensive room with no offer of compensation.

Återkommer inte till Palmas del mar.
Hotellet har en stor och luftig trädgård med såväl flera pooler som havs bassänger. Anläggningen behöver dock en rejäl upp-rustning för att komma upp i en 4-stjärnig klass som anges att hotellet har.. Rummet helt ok efter tillsägelse om att varm dusch inte fanns och som senare åtgärdades. Restaurangen är förfärlig och endast frukosten kan få godkänt. Varken utbud eller tillagning kan inte bli mycket sämre. Detta hotell är mer en konferens-anläggning och hotellets faciliteter tas i första hand i anspråk av dess deltagare. Hotellgäster får dela på de övriga utrymmet som blir över... Hotellet ligger en bra bit från andra service inrättningar vilket man får ta i beaktande.
