The resort is only few minutes away from the port and they offer free shuttle service.
We stayed at the garden room which is just few walks to the beach (if you're in budget and dying to have beach view, this will do). Still a nice place to stay at the balcony, you can still hear the beach waves.
You can do early check in as long as there is an available room (we checked in at 9AM). We arrived at the hotel at 6AM and they have a waiting area, we slept there to get some rest til 9AM before we get to have our rooms.
You can swim at the beach til late at night. The swimming pool is heated.
The resort's beach front is perfect for sunset with right amount of beach chairs.
We rented a motorcycle to tour around the island for 350php only will full tank.
