Pico de Loro 2 BD Garden Loft with Lagoon View

The property is so clean and very relaxing.

None, everything was perfect during our stay.

This is the 3rd time I went to pico and this experience is totally different from the last unit I rented. Unlike other rooms we rented before, this time it has everything its like a hotel experience. Complete with bath towels, toothbrush, etch. Kitchen has everything. If I am to come back i would rent the same place. Also wifi, boardgames, tv with internet. you will not get board when you stay at Miranda G01B

Stove took so long to heat up. Maybe try induction cooking?

location, facilities

very expensive to eat at facilities

Cleanliness, the unit owner being exceptionally accommodated and great location as well.

The property is a well-maintained unit that comfortably accommodates a family of 6. The location is convenient for a beach getaway, and the host is very accommodating.

Nothing

This 2BR unit was indeed a condotel, a cross between a condo and a hotel.The facilities were better than some 4-star hotels where I have stayed. The unit was hygienic clean and neat. There were hotel frills like even-temperatured hot water in the bathroom, hotel-like bed fittings, free toothbrushes, slippers, shower soaps, drinking water, coffee, some snacks, smart TV, excellent Internet connection, curated furnishings and a well-styled apartment. The only thing missing was a breakfast buffet on the first floor and room-service and this would be a full-blown hotel! The host and the staff of the unit and the neighborhood were top-notch. Very accommodating, helpful and quite endearing really. Even the security guards, receptionists and shuttle drivers were very helpful and courteous. The condo location is excellent. It is nestled in the first floor and among lush greenery. You could sit in the balcony and enjoy the nature and the view of the lagoon around you. The neighborhood is very beautiful, very clean with well-manicured gardens. The gardens were decorated with Christmas lights as it was December. The beach if about 500 small steps away. The beach is shallow, clean and quite lovely. You can swim then relax all day under the parasol and just enjoy the serenity. The beach sand is fine and light grey. There were plenty of black and white striped fish to tickle you. They even sold bibingka and puto bungbong by the beach as it was December. As a bonus, there is a lovely, air-conditioned chapel that celebrated mass plus misa de gallo in the evening. Overall, if there was a good supermarket closeby and I could retire here, life would be perfect.

The only thing I didn't like was the limited dining experience. The big hotel in the neighborhood had a good breakfast buffet but I prefer the food in the country club if you could get a table. Unfortunately, you were practically railroaded to opt for the expensive dinner buffet because the whole indoor dining area was reserved for the buffet diners.

The place is relaxing and homey. Clean and great for a family with kids. We loved having coffee in the morning on the porch. The place is closer to the beach than the club house but both places are walkable. Cynthia, the owner, was very kind and met with us before we arrived. Her caretaker, Lorna, made sure we had what we needed.

The unit was very clean. The place smell good. The bathroom was nice and had toiletries. The kitchen had complete appliances for cooking.

Overall property and its decor. Amenities provided were well thought through and made available. Host was super engaged and did everything possible to check our comfort during the stay. Location of property is very good, beach and the club house with pool was at walkable distance.

This is little personal as may not impact other, but we got worried during the stay. We experienced small red ants in the hallway/living area and on couch as well. Food options not much for non-filipinos and grab/foodpanda does not deliver.

The place is pristine, very clean, and comfortable for our party of 6. There’s a water dispenser in the property which was very convenient. The beds are very comfortable too. It’s so close to the beach and the shuttle service was very convenient.

None

The apartment was perfect. Very close walk to the beach, and the apartment was like staying at a friend's house, it was very homely.

No fault of the apartment. The restaurants were ok, but not amazing. Value for money was not aligned with the food compared to the price. For example food price was similar to boutique restaurant in Australia, but the food was not at that level. 30 to 40 AUD Main Meals. In hindsight we should have brought food with us, as the apartment had a full kitchen. And it was nice to have meals with family in the apartment.

Clean, peaceful home near beach.

The accommodation was nice, and it was better than expected. It was spacious, and it had a complete set of amenities to make our stay comfortable. It was also a walking distance to the beach, which made it easier for us. All of the appliances were working, and it was clean and well-prepared. The host was super nice, informative, and easy to reach, and the caretaker was also pleasant. I would recommend booking this place if you were to visit Pico de Loro, and my family and I would certainly rebook this place when given the chance.

This is a very minor detail, and this did not highly affect our stay in the room at all, but I hope another rug would be placed outside of the first-floor bathroom.

The property is beautifully furnished bringing the beach theme into the apartment. The lounge area was super comfortable and well equipped with board games and magazines. The kitchen was adequately stocked with utensils. The host was kind to leave us banana chips and some souvenirs for our stay. The property is very clean and well maintained. The aircons were fully functional and effective.

There’s nothing I can complain about. I will definitely recommend this place to others.

Clean, interiors

None

Clean and has a big space

I like it

1. The host was very informative with relevant messages sent in time through Booking.com. She was kind enough to receive us at the check-in area and explained the things around the resort. Her caretaker helped us check-in and was also available during check-out time. 2. The condo was aesthetically designed, with adequate amenities. Kitchen was well equipped with relevant utensils and appliances. 3. Rooms were spacious, comfortable with clean linen. 4. The overall feel of the unit was homely, with a nice view of the lake-side area covered with lush green surroundings.

The following points should not be taken against the property. That was excellent and worth the money. These points are for the Pico de Loro resort. I am elaborating since they are not available in the fine print and people should be aware that they will be paying up for each activity they do there. 1. The parking was not available at the site as some construction is going on. Actually, construction is going on in the entire resort area, which causes some inconvenience. I had to park a little off in the open/elevated parking area. 2. However, the biggest drawback of the entire process is the fine print. The property, Pico de Loro, charges for everything. There is a registration fee, which is steep for the services provided. At the beach, they don't provide you with towels, available for rental, water sports, yes understandably are also charged per sport. At the pool, again the towels are available for rental. It was quite crowded, being a weekend. 3. Lastly, the food. It was absolutely not up to the mark. Limited options at the beach restaurant, limited options at the hotel restaurants. And the biggest let-down was the breakfast buffet!

super comfy place for a family

This is a lovely holiday home. It’s thoughtfully decorated and furnished with everything you’d need during your stay, including in particular, drinking water so you won’t need to think about that. The place is spotless and the linen are of good quality. The hosts are warm and accommodating. The whole area (Pico country club) is beautiful, clean, and safe.

Nothing about the property itself. If anything, (perhaps I missed it from the listing?) it’d help to state more clearly that additional (minimal) fees would need to be paid to use the club’s facilities. I was familiar with this requirement before booking but maybe not everyone would be.

My family and I have been to pico Sands Hotel for soooo many times. This was our 1st time to stay in a condo, just so to experience its vibes. At first, I was hesitant to book a condo, but when I saw Ms. Cynthia's property I did not have any doubts, I immediately secured her property. When we got there, Ma'am Cha was with us to accompany and assist us in checking in. I thought it would be difficult to transact at the country club (because we used to always check in the picosands hotel), but it went well. After which, we headed to the condo, available covered parking for 1 guest car only then another car can park nearby the condo. Then, when we got inside, it was a beautiful, clean, very homey vibe with complete setup, from pantry with utensils, cookware, up to the condiments, Ma'am cha even gave us a complimentary snacks, starbucks coffee pods and a souvenir notebook. 😊 (super thoughtful!) 👌 The rooms were also clean, hotel-like beddings and piilows with tv and working area. The bathroom on the upper floor was complete with shampoo, conditioner, body wash, toothbrush, toothpaste, fresh towels, and a hair blower! Oh, did I say there was also complimentary lotion perfect for after bath. The whole bedroom, living room, veranda, patio, and full kitchen were perfect for the whole family.

location was perfect between the beach and the pool...shuttle was great

unfortunately the people renting on our last night was too noisy moving furnitures and the owner was a huge help calling the guard

The location is perfect. It’s only a few minutes walk to the beach area. The property is very neat and well maintained.

One of the a/c unit started leaking.

I am grateful to Ms. Cynthia for being very accommodating, very kind, and understanding. There are so many freebies, and she gave me a gift on my birthday! The house is very beautiful, very clean, and close to the beach and swimming pool. Definitely, my family and I will come back. Very satisfied here.

My family and I liked and loved everything about this place. It is modern, clean, spacious, elegant and the host was very responsive. Best experience in a condo in Philippines.

Liked everything

Very clean, well-organized and the place has complete amenities. Perfect for families! The place is a few minutes' walk to the beach and is also a comfortable walk away to the pool area and restaurants. The owner is very nice and easy to deal with. This is our second stay at this accommodation and standards were kept high! It was a very relaxing stay.

None to be honest.

Very comfortable unit. Clean and well kept. Great location.

None

This place is kept with care, clean and very nice. Feels like a family home not a rental.

None.

very clean and cozy designed condo unit with complete equipment/ utensils…strategically located near the beach with great veranda fronting the lagoon.

None

The place is near both the beach and the country club. It is very clean and complete with all your needs for a comfortable stay. The host has been very helpful as well.

Wifi (as in the rest of the island) is not as strong so plan not to do anything more than light browsing and streaming.

clean and organized

poor internet connection

It was very clean and the place was very spacious. Owner was very accommodating!
