Miért szeretik az emberek

  • Stunning overwater villas with glass-bottom floors
  • Incredible snorkeling right off the resort pier
  • Sunrise and sunset views that actually live up to the hype

Gyors áttekintés: A visually spectacular private island that is heartbreakingly let down by 'neglected paradise' maintenance issues and airport-priced mediocre food.

Értékelte @thurexxta: I couldn't get over how vibrant this place is—the yellow buildings against the blue sky gave me so much energy. My favorite part was definitely the seaside terrace; it's so peaceful for a morning walk. If you need a mental reset, this spot works wonders.

The hype

Guests are blown away by the crystal-clear water and friendly staff, but consistently disappointed by the aging facilities and food quality.

Reality check

Multiple reports of sewage smells in older villas and 'slab of marble' mattresses that make sleep a challenge.

  • You are an influencer prioritizing visuals over service
  • You are a snorkeler who wants reef access 10 steps from your bed
  • You are traveling with a large family (Duplex Villas are huge)

Tisztaság és karbantartás

7
  • Housekeeping: Inconsistent. Reviews mention 'sheets not changed' during stays and missed trash.
  • Bathroom hygiene: Major red flag. Frequent reports of 'sewage odors,' 'mold in grout,' and 'wobbly taps.'
  • Maintenance: Struggling. Peeling paint, broken lights, and 'boarded up' neighboring villas are visible.
  • Linens & towels: Weary. Towels can be scarce; some guests reported stained bedding.
  • Odors & scents: Ocean breeze mixed with intermittent plumbing smells in older units.

Foglalás előtt

Jó tudni

  • There is NO ATM on the island; bring plenty of cash for tips and incidentals.
  • The gym closes strictly at 7:00 PM.
  • Transfer boats leave Coron town at set times (e.g., 2 PM, 5 PM); miss it and you're stuck.

Mit csomagoljak be

  • Your own snorkel gear (resort gear is often unavailable or broken)
  • High-protein snacks (dining portions are small and pricey)
  • Downloaded movies (TVs are outdated and WiFi is useless)

“I am requesting a Sirakan Villa or a renovated unit away from the main dock to avoid boat noise. Please ensure the room has been checked for plumbing odors prior to arrival.”

GYIK és rejtett tippek

Minden, amit tényleg tudni szeretnél a foglalás előtt.

Is the transfer fee included in the room rate?

No. It is a mandatory extra charge of PHP 4,000 per person roundtrip.

Can I bring my own food and drinks?

Officially no. They check bags. However, discreetly packed dry snacks are rarely confiscated.

Is there hot water in the showers?

Hit or miss. Many reviews cite lukewarm or cold showers due to solar heating systems.

Are the overwater villas safe for kids?

Yes, but be vigilant. Balconies have railings, but direct ocean access means constant supervision is required.

How is the food quality?

Generally poor for the price. 'Mangrove' restaurant is the safest bet; avoid the steakhouse.

Is it worth the price?

Only if you score a deal under $200/night. At full price ($400+), the service gaps are unforgivable.

Insider tippek

  • ✨

    Eat a heavy meal in Coron town (try Poco Deli) before your boat transfer.

  • ✨

    Book spa treatments immediately upon arrival; slots fill up fast.

  • ✨

    The 'glass bottom' floor in some rooms is just a small viewing window, not the whole floor.

5 dolog, amit tudnod kell az utazás előtt

  • 💡The 'sewage smell' in older bathrooms is a recurring, unaddressed complaint.

  • 💡You are a captive audience: boat transfers to town are not free or frequent.

  • 💡The 'gym' is basic and closes early, so no late-night workouts.

  • 💡Room service adds up fast: a simple pizza costs ~800 PHP ($14+).

  • 💡The resort is popular for weddings, which can take over the main pool/bar areas.
