I stayed here for 5 nights after having looked at another 15 or so places to stay on this island. The choice on the island isn't great - you either get rooms that are really overpriced or really far from the beach. When I found this place I was really happy with the quality of the rooms and agreed straight... More

We went at a busy time of year, so this was the only place that was available for online booking at the time. The location is nice enough, right on the beach, and the view across the water is stunning. Unfortunately, the rooms are fairly substandard. They are large enough, but the door to the bathroom was hanging off its... More

I got a PHP 1500 cottage, and stayed for 10 nights. They will give you good discount if you do diving with their dive center, which is also good, especially Thanks to Daniela, the instructor/manager. Pros: friendly staff, excellent location, and clean enough. The quality of the cottage, relative to the price, is good. I saw other budget options on... More

My companions and I woke up with multiple bed bug bites on our arms, lower legs and feet. Had we not worn shirts and shorts to sleep, I reckon it would have been much worse! We took 2 rooms, the bathroom/CR of one didn't have a door (just a curtain), and the other one's bathroom/CR door was broken (no knob,... More

Stayed in this place a couple of times and getting the same kind of service. Rooms are of average but location tops since it is has nice and wide beach front. Also, when staying here you don't have to walk far from the docking area of the ferries which is located at the back of the resort. Pros: - location... More

Stayed 4 nights in Blue Water Resort on Malapascua. Hotel is just by the beach and its beach bar/restaurant has an excellent view. Location is very good. Rooms were not that comfortable - clean but musty and toilets simple. Staff were friendly, but it was more like a scene from the Friends than a hotel. There is dive shop at... More

I travel to Malapascua with my wife on a summer vacation. A friendly canvasser approached us on the beach upon our arrival from Maya Cebu. My budget is 1000 pesos per night, however he refers me to Blue Water Resort, which is very close from where the boats arrived from Maya because it is within my budget. Me and my... More
