Jao Island Scuba Diving Vacations

It was a beautiful place! Situated up on a cliff with amazing views of the sea; walked down along

This hotel was amazing, the rooms were fantastic, the breakfast buffet was delicious, but the staff were the best. I believe their names were Joan (there were 2 ladies named Joan) and Shem (I didn't get the spelling), they were the most helpful and nicest people ever at the breakfast buffet. I highly recommend this hotel. The only drawback, they really didn't want you swimming in the ocean - the first time they said it was after 5 and no lifeguard was on duty, the second time it was the middle of the day and they said no lifeguard on duty. There were several groups wanting in, finally they brought a lifeguard and we were able to get in water. They really need to fix that - just let it be swim at your own risk. Snorkeling didn't seem to be that great, clear water but not much to see.

This property has a certain charm, is very atmospheric with pretty gardens, but seems passed its prime. The room we were given smelled strongly of mold, the private pool was too gross to swim in, the small beach was not inviting and everything generally felt decrepit, dirty and in poor condition. After complaining and showing staff our issues with the room, we were eventually moved to another one which was much better. Our experience wasn't great but some may like it and staff was responsive. Seemed very over priced despite private pool.

Too quiet , not ideal place for young people. Facility is clean , very accommodating staff / friendly but the only drawback- road to the resort too rough , even tricycles a bit hesitant to drive you there. The place a bit far from places to eat & Alona beach too !

I like this property because it’s quiet, away from busy streets. Staff are friendly, kind, polite and hospitable. Buffet offered is delicious and lots of variety. The price is kind of overpriced probably because of its location being in Panglao. They have nice beach however I didn’t get to enjoy it because it was low tide during the day and high tide at night. Outdoor activities were limited because of the tide. Their pool wasn’t quite impressive it was small, and highly chlorinated. But the hotel and its surrounding was clean and the rooms were spacious. They were not so strict with visitors and I like that. I would probably stay again in this hotel.

The property didn’t have a hot tub. It was very bizarre but you couldn’t bring in outside food and worst thing is the picture of the beach must’ve been CGI because it was awful but the staff was fantastic. Pool her great Wi-Fi was good and the air conditioning was great.
