Hotels in Samal Island

generally the place is good to stay despite of the absence of wifi in rooms. check in was frustrating 😡 as the lady wanted to show her a proof of payment. that was a bit strange as she was not only accepting my booking number.

I requested our 2 booked rooms (poolside rooms) to be near in the beach and bar, and it was granted initially through call, unfortunately when we check in, the receptionist told us that they were fully booked, and we were given another 2 rooms which are at the end, with very poor tv signal reception!sad to know, during our stay, the rooms we requested were not occupied! it's disgusting that the entire pool side rooms in one building are not occupied! the place was good as well as the staff are courteous..but the problem is the receptionist on duty that time. january 28, 2020.

We had an amazing stay at Hof Gorei. They offer boat transfer from Sta Ana Wharf to the resort. When we arrived, the staffs were very welcoming and gave us welcome drinks. We booked Pinzgau Chalet which is located on top of hill with 217 steps but when we arrived, the manager upgraded our room to beach front cabanas which was super awesome. The room was beautiful, spacious, clean and comfortable. Love the sea view and sunset. Perfect for couple and family. The food was a bit expensive but they have big serving. Fettucini Gregorio is a must try. You can request to set up a romantic dinner. Kuya Teteng, our butler, accommodates all our request and made our stay hassle free. Will definitely recommend this place to our friends.

Nice serene place(unless the guests will start the noise)

Pros - Clean. Spacious rooms. Affordable. Just 10mins from the pier. Has parking space for vehicles. Cons- No hair dryer, electric kettle and telephone in the room. No wifi.

I like the place, it’s quiet and secured. The videoke was up till 10pm. 🙄 Kids enjoyed the pool and beach. One thing I don't like is the rough road, good for 4-wheel drive only! We were not informed about that. And the P200 toll fee for passing through the private lot, we were not also informed about this. Next time, be honest with your clients about the road condition to avoid unforeseen conditions.
