"Based on the limited selection options for hotels in Talibon, this property was a good selection.
Property was clean, staff very friendly and helpful.
The included breakfast was just right and delicious each morning during our 5 night stay. We also dined in the evening and enjoyed those meals too.
Parking for our rental vehicle was easy and convenient.
ONE KEY NOTE: This property does not have an elevator (Stairs only) so if you are "Mobility Challenged" that could pose an issue for you. (Their staff will happily transport your luggage to the room on arrival and departure)
ROOM OPTIONS:
Our primary stay was in the "Presidential Suite" which had significant space to relax and a full kitchen and dining bar for seating. It also included a private outside deck.
Standard Room: As a family wedding was in the cards this trip, I also rented an additional room for another couple. That room was clean, but significantly smaller and really designed just for sleeping, not getting work done or relaxing.
The incremental cost of the Presidential Suite is well worth the "Splurge" if you are traveling in Talibon and staying more than one night."
"This was a wonderful find when visiting Anda. This property was it's own little waterfront enclave with a private entrance set on a cliff above its own beach.
We had a private bungalow next to the pool, hot tub, and restaurant. The room was well laid out and impeccable. Your own private deck overlooking the water was very enjoyable.
Not a crowing rooster or barking dog to be heard, which is rare in the Philippines.
The king bed was extremely comfortable.
We enjoyed that breakfast was included in the rate and was very delicious. We had dinner the night of arrival and the food was excellent.
Would definitely stay here again in the future."
"The room was wondeful! I stayed in the dormitory that I shared with 5 other people. Our mattres were on the floor which was bamboo. Each dorm was separated by white curtains. The windows had white curtains too. The bed had white mosquito net. The whole effect was calming and wonderful. The staff were very friendly. The vegetations and floweres also affected the atmosphere of the resort positively."
"A lovely place. The staff were very helpful akd kind. Property is well maintained and beautiful. A family run business we are happy to support. Not to mention the food was phenomenal!"
"Beautiful property surrounded by nature. We stayed for two nights and loved our stay. Everyone on the staff treated as if we were family and the dining options were splendid. Resort is located on the river and allow for trips via the river. 10/10"
"This is a hidden gem set along a jungle wrapped river. The staff is super accommodating. If you are looking to disconnect from the hectic world, this is the place to do it. The food is freshly made and delicious. I highly recommend staying here if you are visiting central Bohol. "
"The room was spotless and there was everything we needed from bottle openers to a microwave.
The staff went above and beyond for us. They invited our little family to enjoy a Christmas lunch with their friends and family and it was wonderful."
