"I recently had the pleasure of staying at La Estancia Busuanga Resort and I must say, it was a truly unforgettable experience. The property is nestled on a beautiful private beach, offering breathtaking views and a tranquil atmosphere that is perfect for relaxation. One of the highlights of my stay was the incredibly friendly staff who welcomed me with open arms and made me feel like part of the family. Their warm hospitality truly enhanced my overall experience. I also really enjoyed the flexibility of the dining options at the resort. Being able to eat anytime I wanted was a rare luxury that I greatly appreciated. The food was delicious and the service was top-notch. While the resort is located quite remotely, approximately an hour and a half drive from Coron, the direct transportation provided to and from the airport and to Coron made getting there a breeze. Overall, I give LA Estancia Resort a five-star rating and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway with stunning beach views and exceptional service. It truly exceeded all of my expectations and I cannot wait to return."

"I love the privacy of this property!! We received a warm welcome. Staff very courteous, friendly, and respectful. Check-in process relatively easy. Did have issues with phone not working and major concerns with drainage, especially toilet and shower. Lock to the french doors broke and it took them 1 1/2 days to fix. Need a map for guests to facilitate with awareness of amenities. I did love that they had bikes to use in the island!! Understand the challenges of being on a private island but availability of certain food or drink is a real problem that guests, who paid for this somewhat costly resort, should not hear the phrase “not available.” Every effort should be made to stock up on easily accessible items like mint or ube. Grow the mint. It is easy to grow and spreads quickly. Check-out process not easy. Had to go to the lobby for a second time. Unnecessary. People who can afford this resort would not take anything in the room. Frankly, it’s demeaning to guests."

"Only complaint is that we didn't stay longer! We loved this place!"

"The staff was wonderful. Trasnportation to and from the airport was excelent and on time. When we arrived there were some issues woth our room which was addressed quickly. The resort overall is a beautiful paradise. The food was amazing. We also did the island tour which was amazing. Our tour guides were awesome and so helpful. I honestly could not ask for more."

"We had a beautiful stay here, and all of the staff was absolutely phenomenal. Delicious food, rooms & views! Could not recommend more!!!"

"Fabulous location with spectacular views. Great food fairly priced. "

"Judith is the very best hostess who will go out of her way to make sure you have a wonderful, welcoming experience not only at her guesthouse but the whole area. She's so knowledgeable, kind, and helpful. She scheduled a night boat ride on the Decalachao River which runs through her property to see the fireflies, stars (literally out of this world), and luminescent plankton. I was heading to another spot the next day and she went out of her way to contact the hotel to arrange my boat pick up at the Decalachao pier and arranged transport there for me and my luggage (and on the return trip too). The rooms were very clean and comfortable, the views of the river and surrounding area were beautiful, and the food was generous and delicious. I couldn't have asked for a better experience and hope to return someday soon!"

"Chindonan is located in a remote place and I had no problem getting there after being picked up at the port from the ferry - 45 minute speedboat ride. I came here for the diving and it did not disappoint. The food at the restaurant was tasty and offered a variety, including for vegetarians. All units require many steps to get there so it’s not for those who don’t want or cannot walk distances and stairs. "

"Right in the heart of Salvacion, a small town located 1 hour away from Coron. I was seeking a place away from the hustle and bustle . Great place to chill for a few days. Hotel staff and amenities are perfect! I shall return! Jh"
