The rooms are themed:I booked 3 rooms for my family: El Castillo, and 2 others I can’t remember…depending on your taste, you either love or hate it the room decor, but I love the eccentricity of it, I get the artistic flair. I enjoyed the beach, it’s not rocky, nice to take a walk barefoot.

The intuitivenss of the staff about my situation (injured back) that started with Nazin and Raphael had displayed in making my stay at the resort more enjoyable was very appreciated. I wish I knew the names of all of the other staff members that had a part in my stay. The room was nice and clean, food was very enjoyable, pool was maintained and used, the facilities (view) were kept up and great as well. I will make it a point to come back.

Had an amazing time. Our second time there and the staff was happy to see us again. They are awesome here! Love all the themed rooms. The biggest addition is the opening of the infinity pool which was being finished the last time we came. It is absolutely beautiful and make this THE BEST place to stay in Sipalay! The food was awesome and we were fortunate to witness 3 beautiful sunsets! We will be back again!

This is a fun and uniquely designed resort with fun theme rooms and so much creative detail. My friend and I stayed in the cave (appropriate because I’m sort of a “bear”). The food was great, the pool was nice, and everyone there made us feel so welcome. It’s on a beautiful sandy beach too. We are certain to be back.

Positives: Sugar beach is approximately 5 hours driving time from Dumaguete. The beach is clean, sand is soft, ocean water clear, rock formations are pretty. Improvements: The resort is tired and in need of updates and a complete makeover. The smell of the dogs (walking and laying down in the restaurant) is unappealing. Overall the staff are friendly, however, the ratty and stained towels, 2 star food service and long wait time for any requests is just a bit much. The pool water is cold. During breakfast, we observed the pool attendant pouring chlorine in the pool and stirring with a stick (not making this up). The "resort" may have provided a beautiful experience and served guests well in the past. At the present time, I would take a pass and look elsewhere.

If you like quiet beaches, world class food, and a world class operation, this is the resort to go to. The music in the lounge is relaxing. The new owners took over 2 months ago, and from the new pool to other improvements, that will make the resort even better are on the way. The owners are very nice. My only regret was not booking the resort earlier and having more time to spend there. Fast internet is available, along with cable TV. If you like to relax and enjoy world class food, this is the place to be.

The place is lovely and quiet. Each room in Takatuka have its own theme, which we find very unique compared to the other hotels that we have stayed. We booked the Marco Polo room, which sleeps 5 with a maximum of 6 people. During our stay we were allowed to bring our own food and use their kitchen (and grill) since their restaurant isn’t open yet; however, they do serve coffee and some quick snacks like sandwiches, pizza and sausages. It is about a 20-minute drive going to the boulevard, where you can find several restaurants that closes quite late at night. They have parking spaces outside their gate, but if you want to park inside their property you can do so with a minimal charge. I suggest you call them ahead of time to reserve a parking space inside their property since it can only accommodate 4 cars. The owner and the staff are friendly and nice, the owner even waited for us near the exit to bid us farewell upon our check out.

The room was in great condition and had fun themes. The property is decorated very nicely. And the bathrooms and shower worked very well. Hoever, the WIFI did not work at all in the rooms and was spotty around the property. The property is far from the main part of town and Campomanes Bay, so it would be best to bring your own car, as the tricycle rides can be expensive.

The theme rooms are quite interesting and original. The beach is beautiful and clean.It took close to 3.5 hours from Bacolod by taxi and then a quick pump boat to cross the river. There are only 3 or 4 other resorts on the island so we had not much restaurant to choose from other than the resorts. Luckily though there are a variety of food in the menu. There are a few lounge chairs and huts on the beach depending if you’re looking for shade or full sun. Wifi and phone reception is scarce but that’s not their fault. Make sure to download movies to watch prior to coming to the resort There is a german shepherd that they own and i’ve noted a few spots in the sand with dog feces. I wish they would clean after it. Also, bring lots of bug spray. Large mosquitos around.

Nicely appointed, well maintained beach resort with good food and decent WiFi. They should mention in the property description that the road does not go all the way through to the hotel. You have to take a short boat ride, 15 min max, to th property. As there were boat guides nearby and available, it was not hard to get to the property however older guests may have a problem with that.

Provided me with a unique and smooth experience since getting on boat towards the final destination to where the accommodations are as it’s our first time. Food choices are beyond expectations. Staff are responsive with concerns, along with openness. One of them shared stories in general about the place and it’s people. Good choice if you want peace and quiet, at the same time if you would like to unwind from the city buzz. Thank you Takatuka!
