Club Tara Resort

The pictures posted at Hotels.com is totally different from the real or actual picture of the resort. The bridge is collapsed, no water in the swimming pool, no power or electricity, no backup power, limited food, rooms not well maintained, rooms not safe, jacuzzi is rusted, overall rate: worst hotel or resort. We can’t cancel our stay, we just left and get a new hotel to stay. Club Tara should not be operated and should be reported to Tourism or city because it’s really unsafe. Hopefully I could get a refund.

The condition of the toilet is terrible (it’s very hard to call it a comfort room). It’s very smelly and unclean. There’s plenty of cockroaches everywhere. The table in the dining area was not wiped. We even saw remnants of food from our previous meal. There is a lot to improve in terms of cleanliness and orderliness. Being an old resort is not an excuse to be untidy. We can tolerate the dilapidation but not a dusty room. If you want to thrive, you need an overhaul.

Beautiful scenery. If you don’t mind being in a secluded environment with tons of wildlife around, then this is the place for you.

Absolutely beautiful location. The view ia amazing. Staff could not have been better. Food was good and reasonably priced (escpecially considering how remote). The boat ride there and back was a bit expensive (private boat is all that is available). The cottages are nice and clean but could use some maintenance.

Staff was phenomenal! The selling point is the beauty and the area.

Its a good place to be with friends.

Stunning views! Could use an update. Fruit shakes and dinner is delicious & resident dog is the cutest!

What a great place,. The staff went above and beyond,. I arrived sick from food poison,. They were helpful to get things to make me better,. I proposed to my future wife there and she said yes,. There's lots to do,. Or just relax

Best at peak season December not ideal low tide and the place need lot maintained work. Not suited for who want four star resort it’s one star. Good for backpacker who want rough but for 70 dollars not worth it for us we were disappointed wasted our travel expenses hard to get refund back still waiting

First of all this place is picturesque. However its in desperate need of maintenance. The jacuzzi tub didn't have hot water and when I ran the motor it smelled like rotten water. Also upon checkin there was no power and we didn't get power til 10pm, they did provide battery lights and the food service still worked. The staff was very friendly. They only accept cash since they are in a very remote place. Also if you get sea sick the boat ride there is really rough

There are so many things that need to be fix. A bit expensive while the service is poor. Lack of maintainance as well. The place is amazing and the staff are nice. I hope they'll fix everything so their costumers can stay conveniently.

Originally we booked the dormitory type of room but we were disappointed to see the condition when we got there. It was an old smelly room with rusty doorknob and broken door. Since we were the only guests of the hotel during our stay, we decided to upgrade (with corresponding charge) the room for us to have a more comfortable vacation.

Beautiful isolated And peaceful place to stay. Enjoyed being able to use the kayak outside the resort area and explore.

Generally, maintenance and upkeep is very poor. Room air conditioner was at floor level, so just a waste of energy. Patio door almost impossible to open & close. Door lock difficult. Water is salty, in shower and faucets etc. Spa pump was very weak. Pool was always empty as they could not get the pump to work, but kept trying, producing only smoke & noise. Jetty was rickety and looked like many boards were about to fail. Staff were friendly and as helpful as they could be under the circumstances. Food was well below expectations. For somewhere peaceful it is a very nice place, but the accommodation and food needs serious attention.

This resort should be rated 1 star but you pay 5 star

Since we are living in Davao City, we took the car to the pickup point. The communication was good and the banka boat was there as promised. We decided to have the resort to arrange the pickup despite it was overpriced. We arrived in the resort in heavy rain and needed to walk in the same. No umbrella available. We got the announced welcome drink, which was a powdered ice tea. From the club house to the room, again no umbrella and we arrived soaked in the room. The waterfront room was spacious and had even two computers. We never figured out the purpose, because there was no internet and the power plug didn't fit in the wall outlet. All bath fixtures was corroded from the salt water and partly painted! No shower curtain, used bathroom toiletries. Since we were already wet, we planned to use the jacuzzi. When I opened the faucet, deep brown smelly water came out of the faucet. Even I let it run for an hour, it never provided clean water and the pressure was even too low. Since we had no hot water the next three days, we couldn't give it another try until the last evening. It took 3 hours to fill it up, I plugged in the power cord for the jets, since the power button was not more working. Again brown water blew into the tub and made a nice bathing experience impossible. The provided food was overpriced and limited, always something was not available, even a simple coke or eggs or something else. The resort is on a remote island and there is literally nothing to do.

We feel cheated!!!! Our room is full of cockroach, it is opposite from the picture we see before we booked there, when we see the place it is terrible! Dirty, messy, plus expensive! The only good thing is the food. I will never go back in this resort!

Супппппер отель, место куда хочется вернуться и не один раз, райский уголок!

Just don't
