-Air conditioner is a bit small for the size of the room, making it a little warm inside the villa (it was cold at night though). -TV was placed awkwardly; the wall blocks the view from the bed (not too big of a deal though). -The shower is so old that the water only goes out in a few holes (makes shower a challenge). -Foam and beddings are not as nice as the other resorts of its kind, but it will do the job to have a comfortable sleep. -They lack light. Yes, it is a bit dark, bahay kubo or bali style. Nonetheless, I would still recommend the sunset villa for it is spacious, comfortable, and its location in the resort. The staff did not fail me as well! (The staff is always a big factor on how I like service-provided businesses, and I would say they are one of the best.) They gave us a ride to the doorstep of our villa with their own “tuktuk”, providing me a Wi-Fi repeater after I was not able to connect to their internet, how they accommodated requests in the restaurant; and speaking about the restaurant, their food is great (a bit pricey though)! Though we only tried the food in the free breakfast buffet, there were a variety of options and they all taste good. The outdoor amenities are also worthy to mention: the swimming pools, billiards (though I wasn't able to try it as I didn't get to find the balls haha, but you can try to ask), playground, outdoor chess, and the private side of the beach. How I wish there was a resort like this in Boracay, with the same price. *I was not able to take pictures of our villa, but the provided pictures in app are accurate. You may also refer to the resorts media for more insights. P.S. This is an honest review solely based on our experience, and no, I am not paid/forced by the resort to do this.

We had the most relaxing stay, the staff was so accommodating and warm. The food was great.

We really enjoyed our short stay. The kids love the pool. The food is great. Highly recommended.

Child friendly hotel. 2 pools, a playground and swings along the shoreline. Though kiddie pool with slide was closed. Food is good especially their lomi!

I thought matabungkay beach is one of the best hotels in lian.. sad to say not. we check in last sun (apr 7 ) and the receptionist said our check in time is 2 pm. we wait until 2 pm but unfortunately, we check in at 4:00 pm. (wasted time)! when we arrive at the room, no available towels, no slippers, no blower, no rug! then we call the front desk and told us its on the way...but then again... we wait!

Rooms were clean and comfortable. Staff were pleasant.

We have a very pleasant stay. The staff was friendly and helpful especially the front desk and the room service. However, I'm not so happy with the restaurant service.

Great overall experience! Will book again for sure.

We checked into a family room which is very spacious. I have a minor issue which is their bathroom, it doesn’t have a bidet. Their food is pricey and whenever we get the bill at their restaurant there’s always a mistake with the bill because of the PWD ID that my son has. I always present his ID before ordering and the discount is not being honoured and if I tell them about the ID again that’s the only time they will redo the bill. I think their staffs are not aware of PWDs/Senior Citizens discounts. Overall my kids enjoyed our stay there.

Great place for relaxation. Employees are hospitable.

Great stay. Room was okay. Huge and clean. CR - no bidet and water stink.

We enjoyed our stay here at Matabungkay Beach Resort. Staff were all nice and cheerful. Food at their restaurant was also good and not that expensive compared to other resorts. The room was clean and big. Location was fine. It’s just that the beach is high tide at the moment of our stay so we barely went there to swim because we have our daughter with us. Overall ratings from me to this resort is 5 out of 5. We will be back here next time!

Over all, our stay was good. But not so much a fan of the food.

Beach is not good. Didn't' have time to swim.

their beds were uncleaned. I got bitten by bed bugs and my hand is very much infected until now. its bloated

Great! Goods not too expensive.

This is a spur of the moment trip for the whole family and I am definitely thankful that I discovered Traveloka. Even if it's a long weekend, I still got the rooms in affordable prices. Surely, there will be more trips booked in Traveloka. Matabungkay Beach has been my family's go to trip way back in the 90's and I am glad that they have slowly renovated to what it is now. We were actually amazed when we arrived because the resort is gated and secured. The lobby is classy and the whole area is just massive. There were a lot of cars in the parking lot but we didn't feel cramped when we were at the beach or even at the pools. I also loved that there were citronella plants all over. No mosquitoes around, yey! Just don't expect anything grand in the beach. It's coral filled and the shore is just about a meter or so. The water's very clear though. There are a lot of fishes swimming. There are some parts of the beach that is very sandy. But when you walk further, there will be plants rooted in the sand. But if your like to walk in the water and go as far as you could from the shore, it's best to do it during sunset. The sky is so clear and the water is just calf deep. You could also enjoy the water by renting a banca, a kayak or a 6 seater manual boat, all these for really cheap prices. The rooms are clean and spacious. But the water in the toilet needs to be improved. And the most special thing about Matabungkay Beach Resort is their staff. Everyone is just so friendly and accommodating. We noticed they were undermanned but we didn't feel any hostility or tiresomeness from the employees. Best service anyone could ask for! We plan to go back with more family members and try their Suites. See you!

My family is. very satisfied in our vacation.
