"We have family in Cagayan de Oro, and we stay here for usually 10 to 14 days. We have been coming here three times already, and we will always come back as long as we visit CDO. This hotel resort has the right value. That's what matters to me. I do like staying in more luxurious hotels sometimes, but the vibe and service matter more. Apple Tree is a simple hotel, nothing luxurious, but clean, directly on the beach with a nice pool and a good restaurant. Breakfast buffet is included. The restaurant has a wonderful patio with a view of the beach. The food is good and reasonably priced. The best part is the service. We have seen many of the staff since the first time we came a few years ago, and they are always helpful. The staff in the Philippines are actually trained in hospitality, and you can tell. The resort also lets you bring the whole family for the day to swim in the pool (for a fee). We always bring ours, and the kids love it here. We will be back soon!"
