早餐服務很好,我們只住一晚,而且隔天要一早趕船班,但還是能提前做好外帶早餐給我們
Location .
Because of our room location - could hear people talking at night .
The staff are all nice!
The bed sheet has some dirt, the light is not bright enough, and the water is smelly
La ubicación, la piscina, el restaurante y el personal. Es verdad que se escuchan los aviones pero no fue molesto para nosotros. El sitio de los masajes que recomiendan la verdad que nos gustó mucho también.
Nos tocó una habitación donde encontré unas 4 cucarachas (la de la foto).Por suerte lo expliqué y nos dieron una habitación mejor y allí no encontramos ninguna. Así que eso lo agradecemos mucho. Fueron muy amables y profesionales.
I loved the location and the stafff at this place. I stayed here while taking a 3 day scuba dive course at Big Blue Divers. It was a nice 5 minute walk to the dive shop. I liked the location being on the edge of town and it was quiet besides airplanes, but that was no bother.
I didn't like the walk to the heart of the city, but if you go in the morning it is just fine.
Great hotel with big and comfortable rooms, proper shower, nice swimming pool. Staff is nice. We could get a massage arranged into our room after a long day. Also could stay by the pool after our check out before heading to the airport. Only small minus points are that it's slightly farther the center of Alona, but nothing really problematic. Also we ate some Filipino breakfast there, and while it still was okay, it was on the low side of silog we had all trip. Transfer to airport too expensive vs local prices.
The room was nice, the beds comfortable and the garden around the pool very lovely and relaxing. Walking distance to the main center is 5-10 minutes (depends where you wanna go). Renting a scooter directly next door was great and getting a tuc tuc to the airport also.
Maybe a bit too pricy as the room itself was a bit older and the bathroom is not a separat room and the floor got wet.
Great location, nice pool
Noise from nearby airport
Comfy bed, clean food, good breakfast and friendly staff. I like every room has an outside hanger for wet clothes. Location is fine.
I booked it because I thought it was a dive Center (hence the name), but it's not. AC is very old and very loud. Also be advised that the noise from the airport is very loud. The hotel cannot really sort any problems or answer any relevant questions. Eg. can not help with laundry and does not know entrance prices for any tourist attractions in the area. The charge hugely overpriced taxies and tours. Don't book any of that here - just go book stuff at Alona beach instead. Theres a couple of dogs at the place. I would have liked to see the hotel taking better care of them.
Very nice estate, quite place, nice pool. The room was good, warm shower. Bed was comfy. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Breakfast with some selections and good taste. No huge portion. Water dispenser.
The room had a bad smell when we came in. Not enough options to hang or lay down things. Some more boards or a wardrobe would be great.
Great central location- really close to restaurants, the beach and general shops. The room was quite spacious, and the beds were comfortable. AC worked well.
The room wasn’t bug proof- constantly had flies and mosquitoes coming in. The shower also smelt like sewerage every time you turned it on for at least a minute or so. We also had a big issue with being woken up every morning to diving instructors using the front of our porch to store their equipment. We werent made aware this would be happening- so It was a big shock waking up to decompressing air tanks directly outside our room. They were there as early as 8am sometimes which isn’t great when you want a sleep in. There was ample room and felt as though they didn’t need to be right on our doorstep. Any attempts at contacting this property will also be ignored- we had an issue finding it initially and they did not answer. Definitely some really nice hotels/resorts nearby for cheaper prices- would stay elsewhere.
Loved the location, a bit apart from the center, but still walkable and the swimming pool. The water is at perfect temperature and it's usually quiet. The room was really amazing, clean and fresh.
The toilet and bedroom don't really have a proper separation, so there's little privacy to do your business. If you get sick while travelling, your travel companion will definitely know.
The staff is super accomodating. I had to do a late check-in and they were super flexible in waiting for me. They also were super kind and offered me a lift to the airport for free! The facilities are new and well mantained and the breakfast is super tasty!
Room was clean and good but there was litle bit small ant at the night. The staff were wonderful and hotel was nice.
We was 6 night and our room was not cleaned during that time, we have to ask new towel and toilet paper almost every day.
The staff so friendly and always looking forward to satisfy our needs.
Many small ants in the bedroom and everywhere. I have never slept with so many small ants around me. They clean them everytime but was useless if you don’t put a repellent for ants.
Very nice hotel with great staff, I really enjoyed my stay with them
It's more quite because it's a bit far from the business establishment. The staff were helpful and the WiFi was good.
No wardrobes
This is really a good location for group. Good food
10-15 minutes walk to the beach but it was fine
everything was good.
giant pool, AC, hot shower, fridge. there’s a restaurant onsite and you can buy water & drinks as well. i was in room 5.
at first I was in room 1 and it got a bit infected with ants so I asked for help and they immediately changed my room so that was much appreciated.
approachable staff and there’s security and camera even in the night.
may be cats or dogs barking at midnight. sometimes there’s smell of smoke in the early morning but don’t know where it comes from.
Comfortable stay. The manager Chris is amazing, a wealth of knowledge of the area and really has excellent advice on what to do, see and where to eat and hang out!
The staff were super nice and helpful! We were so grateful for them, they organized a late airport shuttle for us, a late check out and gave us brilliant suggestions of what to do in the area! The room was beautifully clean and the hotel and pool were so nice! 10/10
Nothing it was great
The rooms were very modern, spacious with comfortable beds and the air con was great. The pool was kept very clean!! and the pool beds and umbrellas were great. The man on the front desk was lovely, helped us arrange our laundry and their dogs are so cute!!
I think the restaurant is separate to the hotel, but the menu could have a bit more diversity (especially for picky eaters) & there could be a fridge in the room to make it even better!
Really friendly and helpful staff. Great location close to Alona Beach but far enough away to not hear the thudding music! You can rent a motorbike from the neighbour which was great! They have a free water refill station and a lovely restaurant on site. Also Alab and Garlic (the dogs) are soooo cute!
Beware of the chickens standing outside your room squawking at 5am! We were initially in room 4 which was excellent, then we extended our stay and moved to room 1 which unfortunately wasn’t as clean, smelt like smoke and had lots of ants!
Very kind people, nice location (calm but close to the main spots) and comfortable room with everything you need.
The staff were so friendly. Chris especially was so amazing, he gave us great recommendations for restaurants and beaches near by, Chris organised our boat trip for us and was so kind and helpful during our stay. Great location short walking distance from Alona beach and the town, but in a quiet enough location. I love that Manta Dream is pet friendly and have two beautiful dogs that are super cute and friendly. The pool was lovely, it was regularly maintained and cleaned.
The most important - the room is clean. It's also spacious. No issues with hot water. It's a cute place. The hotel is considerate to provide each room with a big umbrella, because it is HOTTT! Location - it's only a few minutes away from alona beach and the center of activity. You can easily walk out to the street and catch a jeepney. The hotel also offers a shuttle service which is helpful from 10:00am-17:00pm. The towels were nice and thick, not that cheap flimsy one you get at some hotels. Bohol is known for electricity outages, through no fault of the hotel. The hotel has a generator(s) that kicked in pretty quickly. Staff is friendly. The Owner was helpful in referring a tour guide & organizing to a tour for me.
When the jeepney dropped me off on the side of the road, I was confused. I looked around and all I saw was empty lots, bushes & trees. Theres a small sign that lets you know you're in the right place. You walk down a rocky gravel road to get to the hotel. Whew dragging a suitcase over that gravel isn't easy. Also, as a female solo traveler you may feel apprehensive about walking late at night. The pool is nice but there is absolutely no shade or tree to get a bit of refuge from the sun. Internet connection is really a hit or miss. When the electricity goes out, although the generator will kick in, the internet will be out for several hours.
super friendly staff lovely dogs on the premises large property well sized rooms great value
more veggie choices and larger portions for breakfast would be great
Amazing Staff working there, checking all the time if everything is fine. Wonderfull breakfast and free shuttle to the airport included in price. Nice pool, with Good Space :)! And 2 lovely dogs!
The resort is just out of Alona Beach town in a quiet location. The staff was extremely friendly and very helpful. Especially the manager was great to chat with, helped us arrange a driver, dropped us of at a laundry and even had the driver bring back our camera after I accidentally left it in the car. The resort itself consists of 15 appartements facing a garden with a large pool, the apartments are practical with good showers and Aircon, free water and nice beds.
Actually it is very good value, so no complaints! However, it may be a little hard to find for some drivers as it is on a small dirt road off the main road. Also, the place seems pretty new, so the garden does not have much shade yet, perhaps a few more umbrellas would help.
Very good cooked breakfast included. Free shuttle to the airport.
No mirrors in my room.
