We took the family room and paid 1300 pesos per night for six nights (about 27 USD, which was 9 USD per person per night). Were we three male friends and the room had 3 separate beds, one very larger on the mezzanine and two doubles below. The place is clean, well serviced, which is what we were looking for.... more

We booked a holiday for next February and pre-paid. We had many questions to ask and Janet (from Daves Straw Hat who also owns Arwana) dealt with them and these were always done promptly, politely and thoroughly, irrespective of how many queries or what they were! She went to a lot of trouble to ensure we booked the room we... more

Thank you for your review, it is appreciated. Also, thanks for using our free wi-fi when writing it. Even though your picture with the review looks very happy at our ocean view patio, I am very sorry that you had problems while staying with us. The rate that you were given by email, prior to your arrival, for the room...

Arwana Hotel is situated on the better (quieter) end of White Beach. The friendly staff were nothing short of fantastic, more than willing to help you out when needed and happy to leave you in peace when you just want to relax. The food was excellent, so much so, I actually ate at hotel more often than not. The rooms... more

My friend and I stopped here at the end of a month-long journey across SE Asia... I saw that it was highly ranked on this site (Dave's Straw Hat Inn) and the price was right, so I booked. We also opted to pay for transport from the airport to the inn itself... This is probably more expensive than doing it... more

I started by sampling the place by staying two nights. After staying the first night, it was a no-brainer to stay. Their excellent personalized service was to par with chain hotels in SE Asia. The staff instantly recognized and called you by name as you leave and return the facility. The hotel also included broadband internet connection made contacting friends... more

Firstly, the hotel is difficult to find. The tricycle driver had to use my cell phone to call the hotel to get directions. On arrival we were greeted with a drink and shown our room. It was reasonably spacious and clean. The bed is a let down in so much as it is a flat plank with a cheap 75mm... more

Thank you for you input, it is appreciated. Just a couple of points, we are front beach and on the front beach path, where tricycles are NOT allowed. We will meet all incoming guests who do not utilize the offered nominal fee transfer services on the main road or wherever dropped by the tricycle at no cost. Thank you for...
