팡라오 초콜릿 힐스 리조트

직원분들도 아주 친절하고, 문제 생기면 늘 편하게 도와주셨어요! 감사하고 좋았습니다! 게다가 식당이 엄청난 맛집이에요… 다시 오겠습니다!!

We booked this hotel at the last minute and still got it for a great price. We are looking for a place to stay for the night and it is possible to have a swim early in the morning. The pool was odd size and not as big as it was in the picture, you wouldnt consider swimming in it. It looks more like a deco but kids can play and swim in it. Instead of walking we drive to the nearest beach. The beach was great, and you were free to swim anytime. As we were running out of time, we only got to swim for a couple of minutes and decided to leave around 10am. Overall, i would recommend this if you are on budget and still want a beach on walking distance. I think the only issue was that the ac was not cold enough, even though we set it on high. May i add as well that there is a restaurant inside, but they only offer vegetarian food, so we ended up searching for somewhere to eat outside the resort. However, there are many resto around 5-10mins drive so you more options.

Decent place, and very affordable for what you get. Air conditioning was very great, size of the room was fairly good. The water heater for the shower was also functional. You can also get an ice bath, which great. There are ATMs nearby, and the place is very accessible. Cons: - wifi is very bad, and cellular reception wasn't good - The bathroom door wouldn't close, so we had to jam a chair on the door (something the resort might be able to fix quickly) - Mosquitoes at night, not necessarily inside the rooms, but in the general vicinity of the resort. - in-house restaurant was vegan, so if you're on another diet you're gonna have to go out and find some places to eat. Generally a good place for tourists, the beach is a bit of a walk (10 mins), but it's a great public beach. The staff was very good, very approachable.

비행시간 늦을 때 0.5박 느낌으로 갔는데 괜찮았어요. 워낙 저렴해서 룸 컨디션이 좋진 않았으나, 직원들이 정말 친절하고 기분 좋았어요.

- Room: Good! We stayed in a double room with a/c, and because we were 3, they added one extra mattress for 300PHP. The room was spacious, the AC worked well, the bathroom had shower and toilet separated (which is great and not common in the country) and we had our own kettle. We didn’t use but there was a big TV in the room as well. - Staff: Very nice and helpful and they can speak good english; - Amenities: Great! The pool is not big and its format is a bit weird but the outside area is nice and cozy so you can chill and relax. They have a freezer for cold bath, which was amazing, so if you are a fan of that, you should try. - Food: great taste, fair price. However everyday they had something missing from the menu and the names make no sense. Ex.: we ordered a chickpeas’ pasta but in fact it was normal pasta with chickpeas 😅 Small difference in the writing, big difference in the dish. Feedback was given so maybe next time you will find it fixed. - Location: Good! Close to Dumaluan beach (15 min walking), which is the best beach in the island. There are also some very local restaurants, mini markets and a bakery walking distance. If you want to scape from the crowds and be close to an amazing beach, that’s your place! - Internet: Very good. It worked everywhere, even insight the rooms. - The only con goes to the drinking water refill that it’s not self service. So every time you need to refill your water, you need to ask the staff to do it for you and after the bar is closed, you can’t get it. I believe that it would be nicer if the guests could refill their drinking water by themselves. We totally recommend this place and we would stay again.
