The hotel offer airport shuttle which is great. Front desk are courteous and helpful to inquiries. The room bathroom and toiletries needs better offering. Towels given daily were not consistent. One key card given and extra card will cost you 500 pesos deposit. I agree with others that the restaurant food and tasting lacks flavor. We were there for a whole week and breakfast buffet is almost same and not very tasty. Also I honestly don’t know why most staff in the restaurant loves to chat and flirt/tease each other around hotel guest to hear rather than focusing on their job or keeping it professional. We decided to eat out after breakfast. The hotel resort overall was great and very clean, we lived the beach views and to walk around after breakfast. Another thing that employees needs training is to consistently greet the hotel guess whenever we walk by them, There were some who says hi and then some awkwardly stare at you or walk pass you without saying anything, again we were there for an entire week. In Manila we stayed for 5 days, every employee there stood and greet the guests whenever we walk by them. The new lifeguard was great btw. He’s been there for a month and used to work for Red Cross I think. He’s very knowledgeable and even assisted us during low tide when my young son wanted some shells. He made our hotel experience better! The beach area and pool is great for kids to enjoy, Massage hut by the beach needs better cleaning but the massage itself was great.

Reception Staff need Customer Service Training
Bad start to stay when power would not turn on in room with entry card. Reception staff refused to believe it was faulty instead insisting we were not inserting card correctly. Eventually maintenance person sent who needed to rewire the power. Would have been nice if reception had taken our concerns seriously when first mentioned. Room was also full of mosquitos as a door had not been closed - reception ignored our concern. Remainder of stay when not having to interact with reception staff was excellent.

The staff were very friendly, but they do not display the level of service in the restaurant we are accustomed to. For example, they did not clear away dirty dishes during meals & never asked if we wanted anything else. The buffets had limited options & empty dishes were not filled again.

Stay somewhere else. Book somewhere else
Hotel was dire. Room cleanliness appalling. Smelly fridge not cleaned in years. Linen dirty. Food - tuna sandwich without tuna. Tv without remote control. Issues brought up with reception AND hotels.com poorly addressed. Shower required a dancing act to get wet. On returning home. Chat with Hotels.com left everything to be desired. Request for complaints email was met with we don’t do that. So this review is now about both hotels.com and the hotel. Both a disaster. Request for chat transcript promised but not received.
Dirty and smelly fridge.  Also linked to the no electricity circuit.  So when room key out. No fridge.  So essentially useless
Tv remote

Lovely resort hotel - pay only a small amount extra for a pool room. Patio doors lead to your own balcony with steps down into the pool. Buffet style breakfast and we also enjoyed a grill night on Friday with singing duo. Reasonably easy to reach town using the motorised tricycles and the hotel offers complimentary airport pick-up and return

Resort costa palawan was quite beautiful!’lovely grounds and swimming pool ! Rooms are big and sleeps comfortably! Sound proof ! Hotel staff is very friendly and helpful! Love their exotic plants and flowers ! Hotel is tucked away on the beach ! Breakfast is excellent lots of options and local dishes as well ! Pool closes at 10 pm ! The beach is not nice ! Water looks brown and always low tide till 1pm that’s when the ocean will reach the shoreline! Check in is quick and they accept cash and credit cards ! Very relaxed and quiet resort! I had a great time ! Their food and drinks are excellent!

The room was spacious, the staffs are friendly. The foods at the restaurant are tasty and well priced. The included breakfast was filling, selection was ok. I had a massage and it was really good. My only comment was the toilet rolls, they give us tiny rolls every day which I find odd. Other than that, I highly recommend this hotel.
