Bluewater Sumilon Island Resort

Truly beautiful Island rooms were huge and the service was fantastic

This property are quite and great customers service

The website gives an inaccurate impression of the island. On the positive side, the staff were very friendly and helpful. On the negative side, I had to pay 3,500 PSP to get the boat from the mainland to the island. We had already arranged for a driver from the hotel to pick us up and get us to the mainland dock, but he didn't connect with the 2pm ferry, so we were left waiting until 4pm or pay. The whole island is infected with ants. They are everywhere, in the bathroom, the bedroom, the resturant. We paid for breakfast and dinner buffets. Neither were a buffet. Both were a very limited ala carte menu, and some of the items they had run out of. Beach is crushed coral, not sand. The hotel closed with 1 day to go on our booking due to Hurricane Kristine and made all the guests leave at 9am. This was a gross over reaction and I think was more of a commercial decision than a safety decision as there were few guests and probably not enough to make it profitable.

The breakfast and dinner buffet was awesome. The staff are so accommodating and will help you with anything and very friendly the sandbar and the beaches. The whole property is magnificent. It’s just a whole different world in Paradise. Would definitely recommend this to anyone beautiful place great atmosphere very peaceful.

Very nice relaxing place to visit. Some of the most crystal clear and beautiful waters in the Philippines. Very nice infinity pool. Great snorkeling all around the island. Also decent hiking trail. Rooms are really nice, great views and very comfortable. A bit expensive but well worth it.

I like the area its very quiet and relaxing, just need to improve the communication when making reservations tried to contact property but no reply other than that we have a great stay

I didnt get offer with the membership! Also you cant really enjoy the island if you arrive later in the day because you have to leave to ride the last trip of the boat which is 4:30 pm. I think they should have A later boat too for the people who arrive late for the 2500 charge day tour!

Diving

First, the island and surrounding waters are absolutely beautiful. Second, like most all Filipinos, the staff was excellent and happy. Third, the rooms were amazing. Very beautiful and very well laid out.

We were not aware that you had to get to boat ramp by 4pm, hotel policy is checkin at 3 or later, we got to boat location and was told TOO LATE, ask for a refund for first night was DENIED, impossible to talk or find management...DO NOT BOOK THIS PROPERTY IT IS MISLEADING about boat not traveling after 5pm even though policy states check in 3pm or later

It’s a small piece of paradise! Really liked the infinity pool facing the sea, with a tree in the middle. It’s really peaceful. Staff is great also. A few mishaps with the transportation back and forth. Just set the rate and apply it consistently.

Staff extremely friendly and helpful. Buffet especially morning was plagues by birds eating food from buffet line flying into food. Extremely unsanitary

Amazing island, all the staff were very kind and friendly and so helpful. I booked 4 days and only stayed 2 days and they even transferred my remaining days to their other resort, thank you so much Bluewater staff

The ambiance and rooms

Had a weekend romantic get away in Bluewater Sumilon. Got a premiere room with beds facing the sea. Beautiful and spacious room with a swing and table outside. Lots of activites to do like trekking, kayak and biking. Had fun doing the bike trail. Food is delicious and worth the spend. I especially love the sand bar and infinity pool. Will definitely book and stay longer on the next visit.

. Seamless delivery of modern day comforts in a remote island setting., it was a beautiful beach resort with interesting natural features. Rooms were tastefully pit together. Staff attention to detail is unparalleled.

The hotel is quite a ways from the airport, approximately 3.5 hours. We opted to hire a driver for the day to take us to the hotel because we wanted to stop at many places along the way. The price was the same as what the hotel charges to take you there in the shuttle so the extra flexibility was nice. The hotel is a quaint group of bungalows in a extremely wonderful setting. There are massive coral mounds just outside the shallow waters of the hotel. The hotel lives up to its name with beautiful blue water everywhere around. The food was good. There were many things to do on the island. I would recommend this place to anyone although by Philippine standards it is somewhat expensive. From the hotel we did the swimming with sharks and two waterfall excursions. Lunch at the hotel is not free so we took the ferry across to the mainland every day and ate at the Choobi Choobi bar, which has a great atmosphere and a wonderful ocean view. I would recommend this hotel in the area to anybody, however you don’t wanna stay too many nights because you will eventually run out of things to do in the area. I stayed five nights and was very happy with that

The island is amazing. Staffs from lower levels to managerial were all friendly and engaging. My family had a great time. Will come back again.

The service and stay was overall amazing. It was a honeymoon and they stayed at one of the villas. They were treated like VIP’s. Good job!

Very nice and beautiful place. wish we could stay more than 1 night there. However, due to nature environment, there's a lot of insects so bring your insect repellent along
