Maya hotel rooms a the Independent

"I’m sure it once was a beautiful property, but the maintenance has gone. Also, some of the amenities weren’t even open yet. We actually left the resort to go somewhere else for our day."

"Everything was quite good. We enjoyed the pool and the breakfast very much. "

"We jad a great time. Staff was really friendly. Breakfast buffet was great. They even have a packed breakfast for you, If you go out diving early in the morning."

"Beautiful property and beach, the staff are so lovely, and food at the restaurant was excellent with lots of variety. Dive Shop at the hotel was also excellent. Always felt safe. Public ferry getting to/from Malapascua was a pain... Overloaded on our way there, and they don't run on time (was our experience both ways and then they charged us more because they didn't have enough people for our return). Worth considering the private ferry option for this reason. However, once you're at Exotic, it's great! "

"Very clean resort. Clean pool and daily housekeeping. Rooms were a good size with mini fridge. We asked for a kettle and they were accommodating. Breakfast had many choices and staff very friendly. The on site dive shop is well organized. Really enjoyed the resort and superior room on second floor enjoyed sitting on the balcony overlooking the pool. "

"Love this place. Staff is warm and room upgrade was appreciated. Room have ac, safes, internet, fans etc. and are cleaned every second day. Hotel is right on a beatiful beach. "

"From the outside,looks like a great resort but that was it. Room as big as it was is nice . No seats inside room so every time you want to sit down you have to sit on the bed . Luggage no place to pack or un pack other than the bed. Their is a nice table with a kettle and to lovey cups but nothing to put in the cup(coffee or tea) also no wher to plug in or sit down. Lots of staff but no atmosphere that you get in other resorts. Breakfast included, go else where greasy and cold. Last day stomach was upset from breakfast was in room and threw up a bit again was sitting on bed running to toilet a small stain was on sheets. When checking out charged me 900php and said that if they cleaned them they would have use bleach? My answer was don,t you bleach white sheets anways what about other bodily fluids?? They asked us if we wanted to take sheets with us. Odd question while traveling. Staff were nice but a little thing call customer service goes a long way. Everything you have to ask and their are lots of staff. Second time on the island would i stay here again no. "
