"i love the view from the 6th floor room though the steps are quite challenging :) they also allow pet which is great though the only concern i had was that they charged me 2K PHP for additional fee on top of the pet cleaning fee per day (which is not part of the fine print) which is kind of weird honestly. they should manage guests of the fees that they will eventually charge for the pets at the onset. apart from this, i dont have any concerns with the property - staff are friendly and location is great!"

"I like the area specially the overlooking of the sea.
Rooms are clean and friendly staff. However, our door knob sometimes was hard to close. But overall, this is good couples or friends who wanted to staycation for a day or two."
"This was an amazing trip! I haven't had a chance to write a review but here it goes.
1. The staff - Super amazing and friendly, always smiling and helpful.
2. The managers - great, caring, funny and always went above and beyond to help and accommodate.
3. Resort - Amazing ocean view and lots of activities, we went back 3 times in a span of 2 weeks. Lol
4. Room - clean and comfortable!
5. Food and drinks - delicious and amazing! One of the best in the Philippines.
I've been to many hotels and resorts worldwide, but this has been the top of all of my stays. The vibe, the friendliness, activities, food and drinks. I've never felt so relaxed and I didn't even need to use my phone. No stress and all good vibes! Waking up to see the ocean with a nice cup of coffee with smooth music, it makes the hours of drive (almost 4 hours one way) to there well worth it.
In my opinion, this was more than a stay, this was an unforgettable experience! We have been through the regular days and also the typhoon days, they have been amazing and helpful the whole time! It was definitely an adventure! Now I'm back in Florida again and I miss this place, but I'm planning a visit the Philippines next year and I will make this my top place to visit!"
"People are friendly, quiet, and you will feel that you are in the province.
Very thankful for the guy who cooked for me and my friend so we could have dinner even though they are already closed.
There are lots of places there to chill.
Also, the number in the app or in the receipt is not updated, you might try to call it but someone would tell you that you dialed the wrong number. So if you would like to contact the accommodation you can try to message them here instead."
"The resort is quite dated it could do with a makeover.
Originally built in 1992, I don't think anything has been improved since then. The breakfast was very good, but some of the mains not so. The staff were brilliant and looked after us really well. As for the location, it is way off the beaten track, but we enjoyed our time there. The snorkelling was a great experience, and the training pool was an added advantage for a novice."
"Great spot but restaurant need big improvement. Tried dinner and breakfast there was very expensive and food quality very poor didn't enjoy anything from the restaurant.
Island tours and boat hire for a day very expensive P8,500.00 for six person. I had to run out to the locals to book a raft to for island hopping for half the price.
Pools closes at 9pm at night. No smoking in the resort you will be fined on the spot.
Traveled all the way from Manila and arrived at the resort by 1pm and had to wait till 2pm just to check in my room. Wasn't quiet happy with the long wait."
"Service and quality of experience was outstanding for a boutique resort in the Philippines.
Food was very good, but I felt the menu could use a few more options. For example, it's fine to offer an extravagant ultra-indulgent double sized burger (which tasted good by the way), but sometimes guests with smaller appetites might like a burger, too."
"Accommodation & dining was mediocre.
However, the diving was AMAZING; facilities and quality of the diving equipment are seriously good and well maintained.
The dive master was exceptional and the dive shop offered great service including all the boat crew.
Would have given a 6 star rating for the diving only.
Beware when booking via trip.com, there were massive issues and the reservation was recorded in the resort's system until I followed up with trip.com - quite a hassle."
ผผู้เข้าพักWe stayed in Porto Novo Anilao Dive & Leisure Resort for 7 days 6 nights. The rooms are very clean and the food in their restaurant is very good. The F&B staff are friendly and the food is yummy. We did 16 dives with them. Thanks very much to instructor Mervin, JM and their dive team. They are professional, very friendly and make you feel like a VIP. They took us to several beautiful dive sites which I never think Anilao have them. I strongly recommend this resort and I am sure I will come back again.
Special thanks to Janet for the Lo Mei, JM for the Mei Hon and Halo Halo. Hope to see you all again very soon.
