Stayed for 4D3N in a 4 Bed Mixed Dormitory for S$32.92 (After Voucher Discount).
Pros:
- Room: Clean and decent. Plenty of space to open the bags and pack as need be. - - Laundry: There is a free washing machine & spin dryer (Rudimentary, hence it will take awhile / don't expect your clothes to dry 100%)
- Breakfast: Breakfast is included and decent
- Location: Close to the Main Street but far enough away that the Hostel is relatively quiet
- Front Desk Tours / Bookings: Front Desk can answer all your questions and help with any tour bookings. You just need to book with them the night before
Cons:
- Noisy: The rooms have a ”mesh window” hence if people are noisy in the corridor, you will hear them in the room
- Airflow: Airconditioning is decent but not very strong hence will have to turn on both the aircon and the fan. Once you close your curtains, you won't feel it
- Humidity / Laundry Area: Given the humidity, the items don't actually dry properly in the laundry area. Suggest to bring your own clothes line / hangers and hang them in the room as it will dry much faster
- Hot Water / Showers: There is a shared bathroom (Which was much cleaner and hotter water) than the ladies' only bathrooms (Which had no hot water when I tried)
Would recommend if you're looking for a quiet place to stay
Really nice resort. Clean, modern, several beautiful pools which were never very full and the staff is incredible. They help in any way they can, including arranging for a last minute boat tour for us well outside of their usual hours and seemed happy to make it work (add the guides they work with are fantastic too). It was a very peaceful and comfortable stay overall.
The one issue is the food, they put a lot of effort into it and have a very large breakfast buffet every day, but the food just isn’t that good. There's one restaurant in the resort and there aren’t many (any?) other food options in the area, so it’s pretty relevant. The food is a bit bland or with strange flavor combinations. And worse, it takes a comically long time to get served, even if just a sandwich, and it’s usually cold when it comes. This happened at all 4 of the meals we had there outside of breakfast.
But... It honestly didn't bother us that much. Partly bc we're not big foodies, but more importantly, bc the staff is so incredibly friendly and helpful. Everyone goes out if the way to make sure you get everything you want and then some. I hope they can fix the food issues and this place would be 5 star
Booked a room and stated that we will arrive in roughly 20 minutes. Once we arrived the hotel then started to prepare a room for us which meant a little waiting of roughly 20 minutes.
Room itself is nice ans comfy. The room also had little balcony. As poor design of the doors there was a whistling noise from the wind at all times when the left balcony door was completely shut. No hairdryer in the room.
Pizza at dinner was one from the freezer and before i ordered it i double checked with the waiter if the pizza is made inhouse - which he stated.
Rice dish was plenty and really good.
Staff at the breakfast didn’t care at all about our orders. We had to order everything we ordered at least two or three times. Please have another look also trough some reviews which are already on Google. It seems that we - as caucasians - were not the preferred type of customer.
Conclusion; it’s a nice place but we wouldn‘t come back as we absolutely didn’t feel any welcomed as per the uninterested staff.
Highly recommend hotel, loved every moment of it.
Every aspect of the hotel was truly league of its own, friendly staff, clean, and the location was just perfect.
Location is not as it seems. Every time we have to go to the white beach or other areas, it cost a lot on those tricycle rides. I mean a lot it adds up to more than 2k going here and there in just 3 days. The hotel itself is great, spacious and clean. Service can improve a bit, not attentive at times. The food must improve a lot, butter chicken is not butter chicken, more like turmeric ginger chicken. I expected authentic Indian if the owner is Singaporean Indian. The worst part is the stairs to climb to the hotel after a long day of exploring. Hotel does not allow consumption of outside meals, which is a very restricting policy, forcing you to only buy in house meals, in which so much of it is out of stock and has very limited time frame to order. Book this if you have money to throw here and there, and if you have your own transportation.
We had an amazing time at Oceans Edge. Photos could not describe how beautiful this place really is. The view from our room was absolutely breathtaking. There is nothing more smoothing and relaxing than waking up to sunshine and ocean waves. Same goes for your morning shower. The staff is extremely helpful and professional. The island of Carabao is a true diamond with very few tourists compared to its crowded neighour, Boracay. We rented a scooter from the hotel and discovered the whole island on it. We got a few recommendations from the hotel manager about places to visit. My girlfriend wanted to watch the sunset and so the manager told us about this place called “5 pm” which is literally the perfect place to watch the sunset. The list of good things could go on and on but I am not a good writer. We stayed at a few places during this vacation but we definietly had the best experience at Oceans Edge. In conclusion, Carabao island really provides an authentic experience of the island lifestyle of the Philippines and plenty of natural beauty. Considering the level of hospitality and the 5 star luxury resort experience we had, I am almost sure that Oceans Edge is the top place to stay on this Island.
It was absolutely worth booking this hotel again for my family. We stayed in Villa 102, which had a stunning ocean view that made the experience even more special. The resort also has its own waterpark, where my family ended up spending most of our time. It was a fun and relaxing getaway, perfect for both kids and adults. Highly recommend this resort for families!

We loved our stay at Seda Lio! The staff were hospitable and accommodating especially with our requests since I have a special needs son. It has a clean environment and easily accessible to the airport. Seda Lio has a serene and relaxing environment. It has restaurants near the area too. I would highly recommend this hotel.
I had a great time at Four Points Sheraton Palawan. The location is amazing, with beautiful ocean views. The staff were super friendly and helpful, and the rooms were clean, spacious, and comfortable.The pool was a highlight. However, the food could use some improvement—it was okay but not as good as I’d hoped, and there wasn’t a lot of variety. The Wi-Fi was also a bit spotty at times.
Overall, it’s a lovely place to stay, and I’d come back, but there’s a little room for improvement.
Great

WWinnieIt was fine for an overnight stay. Breakfast was reasonable here with tea/coffee, pastries. The front desk was not the friendliest of people & I was charged 800php for a lost key card , which I thought was pretty steep. Location was quite good as we wanted to be close to Tao Expeditions. The driver that picked us up from hotel did not help us with luggage at all, we dragged it through bumpy /rocky roads from airport to carpark and then to the hotel. Didn’t offer or lift a finger to help. But it had a great view from the breakfast roof top.
VVictoria&JessiMy overall experience is good! I'm the type of person who prefers active travelling, so the hotel is needed literally just for sleep, shower and storing stuff.
My requirements for the hotel were good proximity to the city center and nice room with hot shower. Well, the location is truly good, it's a bit on the hill so to get to the city center you just need to come down. In the same building there is a great cafe DAYO who offer 10% discount per day for the Oceana Bay hotel's guests.
During our trip to Philippines, Coron was the last destination and the 4th hotel we stayed at, and that was the only one with some room facilities issues. When we checked-in it turned out there is no water in the shower, the staff truly tried to be helpful, the receptionist girl offered us to stay in another upgraded room before the problem will be solved. The thing is when one day later we had to return to the room the problem with the water wasn't solved, we had to contact staff all the time which for sure was absolutely inconvenient, especially when water could be cut off during taking shower. At that point nobody cared already, there were no offers to change the room or to offer us a discount. The siphon from the sink was leaking, so every time you wash your hands, the bathroom floor is immediately in water.
The AC is truly loud, but this is absolutely normal for Philippines, as well as the absence of hair dryer. Nice thing that the hotel unlimitedly provides drinking water in the hall. The hotel also offers tours, bike rent, transfer to the airport, but I'd suggest to check it out in the city first, we've found more convenient and better price offers there.
KKurzaThe hotel itself was lovely and the food was good. However, we found the roosters next to the hotel to be very inappropriate and disturbing. We could not sleep properly because they are noisy all through the night. There is no way to block the noise out.
We were able to switch rooms, which helped, but if the hotel is running at full occupancy it will be a problem. About 24 rooms are affected by the noise the roosters make. It is a pity that roosters on a plot next to the hotel causes plenty of discomfort for guests. If I was the owner of this hotel, I would certainly do something about the roosters.
AAnonymous UserWe recently spent a few nights here and overall, it was a decent experience. The cleanliness of the hotel was good, although I did notice that the chairs in our room could use a vacuum, as they had some dark stains. Additionally, the room’s smell could be improved to create a more welcoming atmosphere upon arrival.
On the plus side, I absolutely loved the mattress and comforter; they made for a very comfortable sleep. The location is a major advantage, being right in front of the mall, making it easy to access shopping and dining options.
The staff were generally nice and accommodating, though I found the waiter at the restaurant to be a bit shy. He seemed to lack communication skills, as he didn’t greet customers or smile, which detracted from the overall experience. I think he could benefit from some additional training in customer service.
As for the food, while it was fine, I felt that the prices were a bit steep considering the typical quality and serving sizes.
In summary, while it's not a luxury hotel, it provides a decent stay with comfortable accommodations and a good location. It just needs a few improvements in cleanliness, ambiance, and service training to enhance the guest experience. I appreciated the thoughtful touch of receiving pens upon checkout :)
AAnonymous UserThis place is fantastic! Location-wise, it’s really great. It’s very near the city’s commercial establishments and great restaurants - 5-minute drive on average. It’s also near the airport. The neighborhood in which it is in is very quiet and peaceful. So if you want a place that’s very accessible but still in a quiet location, this hotel is for you.
I also would like to commend the staff - they’re all very warm and friendly. They were very accommodating and gladly answered all our questions about our travel.
This hotel has a resort vibe so you really get to relax. It has great amenities, a lovely pool, and a relaxing main reception hall with a billiard table and comfy couches. It also has an in-house restaurant which is great for those who don’t want to go out to dine. Our room was very clean, cozy and surprisingly large for its price.
We would definitely book this place again when we visit Puerto Princesa in the future. Definitely worth the price! 🫶
CCris RuffoloI went on a 13-day trip around Palawan and Coron was my first stop from Cebu. In Coron, I stayed in Dayon Hostel. I was alone for the duration of my three-night stay in the six-bed female dorm. You can choose to lock the door at night for security. I made sure that I turned off the AC every time I went out.
The restrooms are clean especially the toilets although the shower rooms need to be upgraded as some showerheads do not function that well. It will also be nice if they do a thorough cleaning of the shower rooms and the sinks as they looked dirty and unkempt.
There is a restaurant on the rooftop but the options are limited. If you exit through the back, it leads you the main road where you will find a wonderful cafe that serves good sausage meals. There are also several local options available if you want affordable options.
The price I paid was worth the quality of the stay. The hostel is known by tour operators and guides and so it was not a challenge when it was time for pick-up and drop off.
I loved the staff especially when I had to leave early in the morning to head to the port for my trip to El Nido. They arranged my transportation and made sure that I left the hostel on time.
Will I go back? Maybe not and it's not because I don't like it. It's just that I felt that my next stay should be in a private room for another worthwhile experience in Coron. But for those solo travelers on a budget, Dayon Hostel is your best bet in Coron in as far as affordable sleeping option is concerned.
