Hotels With Pool in Central Visayas, Philippines

It's a decent hotel, with everything you need inside. You can stay for a long time, as there's a kitchen and everything you need—a water cooler, kettle, refrigerator, air conditioning, even dishes and a coffee maker. However, there are some drawbacks: - The room was very stuffy and humid, and the grout in the shower wasn't cleaned. - The washing machine didn't work, and I only stayed for one night, just so I could do some laundry. - The balcony wouldn't open at all, no matter how hard I tried to open the door, and it was on the first floor, right next to people splashing in the pool. - The shower gel and shampoo aren't individual sets, just two bottles shared by everyone, so who knows what guests might mix into the bottles. - The renovations are frankly shoddy, with the slats held in place with tape, the paint in the bathroom peeling in places due to the humidity, and the walls are crooked. The bathroom has a small ventilation duct (without an exhaust fan) that opens into the hallway, through which you can hear every footstep and conversation, as well as everything going on in the bathroom. - The air conditioner is aimed directly at the bed, which is uncomfortable and can cause a cold, and turning it on is not an option as it's very hot and stuffy. - The room has a terribly strong-smelling air freshener that gives you a headache. - The refrigerator rattles like someone's hammering something; it's impossible to sleep with that noise. Overall, it's a good option for a 2-3 night stay. It's conveniently located near the airport; a taxi ride costs 160 pesos.

Was looking forward to our stay with the rebranding of Belmont to international chain Mercure. GOOD: 1. Staff is great, friendly and helpful. Diane at the check-in counter was helpful. 2. 6-7 minutes walking access to the private beach and outdoor pool shared with Savoy Hotel. 3. There are many good restaurants within walking distance. 4. It also has an indoor pool, gym, and spa. COULD BE IMPROVED: 1. For a 4-star hotel, Pulo's breakfast was average with nothing special or memorable. The food selection for the buffet is plentiful but not premium. The service of the attendants is lacking. Once seated, no one approached us to offer water or coffee during breakfast. Spread is a decent size so you'll find something to fill you up. 2. There is sewer smell in the lobby of our floor and inside the elevator at times. One staff admitted that the building has plumbing issues in the basement. 3. Elevator security system is faulty. Would not accept my keycard so could not go to our floor. Had to approach the reception desk THREE times to have my keycard checked. Eventually a staff had to accompany me to the elevator to tap my floor.

Honest review2 for our 2 night stay: *unlike other airbnb, They don't provide basic shower needs. No free bottled water as well upon arrival. *fridge are not clean before our stay. *sink and stove are not cleaned as well. * not exactly same as posted. The place is still good if you're not that sensitive with all the things mentioned above. We still managad to enjoy our stay. 😊

Here's my hotel booking advice for traveling with seniors and a little one. A large resort is ideal because it's not suitable for a baby to go island hopping. During the day, we mostly spent our time at the various pools and the beach within the hotel. The direct-access pool room was my baby's favorite; they carefully walked down the steps one by one, eager to learn how to swim. We even happened to be there for Chinese New Year's Day, and the hotel provided a complimentary buffet dinner for all guests. The buffet was excellent, and the performance was fantastic. This hotel is impeccable, and I'll definitely stay here again in the future. I also booked a two-night villa at another hotel. While a villa might seem nice, it was actually quite impractical. The small pool in the villa couldn't satisfy my mom's swimming needs; she didn't even get in. It was also dangerous for the baby to play in the yard, walking around the pool. We originally booked it to cook our own New Year's Eve dinner, but we couldn't even buy seafood locally in the end [crying face].

The room was clean and spacious enough for the three of us, and the service was good value for the price. Access from the room to the pool was very convenient. The swimming pool is large and suitable for both kids and adults, with shallow areas on both sides for non-swimmers and deeper sections in the middle for more confident swimmers. Breakfast was plated and reasonable for its price. The room tended to be a bit humid, and the pool had a strong chlorine level, so using swimming goggles may be helpful. Overall, it was a comfortable and enjoyable stay.

We had a really pleasant stay at this place. The unit was clean, cozy, and comfortable, and it matched the listing description well. The amenities were a nice touch and made the stay more enjoyable. The location was also convenient and easy to access. The host was responsive and helpful whenever we had questions. Overall, it was a smooth and comfortable experience. We’d definitely consider staying here again and would recommend it to others looking for a relaxing place to stay.

We had a wonderful stay at this resort and truly appreciate the exceptional service provided by the staff. The front desk team was incredibly helpful—when my husband thought he had dropped his wallet in the car during our transit from the pier, they went above and beyond by checking the CCTV to help us track the car plate number. With their help, we discovered that the wallet was not left in the van. Eventually, we realized it had been dropped in a Grab car during our journey from Cebu City to Pier 1 Cebu, and we were able to successfully recover it. We are very grateful for their effort and support throughout the process. From the first day we checked in, the front desk staff noticed that my son was not feeling well. They kindly informed us that the resort has a nurse available and encouraged us to reach out if needed. On the third day, my 4-year-old son’s diarrhea became more serious, and the staff once again showed genuine care and concern. They arranged for a nurse to check on him, who provided helpful advice and referred us to a clinic doctor the next morning. This gave us great peace of mind as parents. The room was very nice, clean, and comfortable, and we really enjoyed the pool—it was excellent. Overall, the warm hospitality made our stay even more memorable. We also enjoyed the buffet breakfast at the resort, the purple yam porridge is very nice. All the staff were very kind, helpful, friendly, and warm. We would definitely come back again if we travel to Bohol. One small suggestion would be to add a gym room for guests, which would make the facilities even more complete. Thank you again for the wonderful experience!

This place was one of the best. We had everything we needed in the house and more. Even shnorkels and life vests, we rented the car stright from the owner. They have pool cleanner on a dauly base. We will be back.

We stayed at Savoy Hotel Cebu and overall the experience was just okay. The room was smaller than what was shown in the photos, which was a bit disappointing. The toilet was also quite small and did not feel as dainty or well-designed as expected. Another concern was the breakfast policy. We booked the room with breakfast for 3 pax, but only 2 breakfasts were honored because my daughter is already 12 years old. This was not clearly explained during the booking, so it came as a surprise. The hotel is decent, but clearer information and more accurate photos would help manage guests’ expectations better.

We had an amazing stay at this resort, especially the breakfast. There are many pools and a calm beach, and the gym is very good. The entire staff was incredibly friendly, helpful, and always smiling. However, there are a few things that could be improved: 1. The Wi-Fi access ends at 11 AM, which is quite strange and inconvenient. 2. You are not allowed to use the pools after your checkout. 3. You are not allowed to use the sunbeds with umbrellas after your checkout. 4. The beach is clean, but there is still a lot of “water grass” and the water is not very deep for swimming.
