Monreal hotel rooms a the Independent

"A small, but very well put together resort with a beautiful beach, tasty restaurant and welcoming staff."

"They have their own vegetable garden and you get to eat what is currently in season. A stones throw away from the start point for whale shark watching and also Whale shark adventures and tours, where you can do a number of various tours around the region. Would highly recommend."

"I’ve never experienced a better staff than these wonderful people at the Altamar, my girlfriend and I had such a wonderful time enjoying the beautiful scenery, beach, pool and food! The staff surprised us on numerous occasions with a romantic dinner table and breakfast table outside with candles and beanbags! This was my first trip to the Philippines and I’ve never in my life received the wonderful treatment of the staff, thank you for everything! This is the #1 place to stay!! "

"I stayed at the treasure island hotel for one night before an early morning flight. The hotel is in the busy section of Masbate city. The staff was very friendly. I didn’t use any of the facilities except the room. The room was fairly small but comfortable. The air conditioning worked well. The water pressure in the bathroom was very good. They were able to provide me with a parking space which was very helpful. It’s a clean comfortable hotel near the airport with a pleasant staff. "

"Location of the hotel is excellent. It is centrally located so food and transportation are easily accessible for hotel guests. However, the room that I stayed-in needs upgrading. Chipped-off wall and ceiling paints, bathroom doesn't have a shower curtain so it makes the entire restroom wet. The bathroom tiles are old and dirty-looking because of the missing grout on some parts of the walled tiles. Good thing they have a comfortable bed so I was able to sleep despite the hotel's noisy air-conditioning system."

"The pool was dirty, the beach was covered in garbage. The room smelled bad and there were ants on the bed. We booked the room then decided to leave. Lost the cost of the room but didnt sleep with the ants. Went to the resort next door instead "
