Stayed here for 5 nights in April 2014, 3 kids, 2 parents, 1 grandad. There is no doubt this was the best place we stayed in th Philippines, especially for those traveling with young children (4 & 6 years, and 8 months), the pool was bigger than I expected and the kids happily spent most of the day swimming. There grounds were as big as described, and great fun for the kids; I imagine some thought had been put into landscaping the lotnge stayed in the larger of the two cottages, and were provided with two small mattresses for the bigger kids, my dad stayed in the other Room, closer to the pool. We were about 10 minutes from the beach, but realized it was best to only venture out after 3 or 4 pm. We were on the quieter and less expensive end of the beach, and unless you are looking for a noisier type of stay, it was more than enough. It seemed fairly secure, if somewhat poor between this house and the petrol/gas station, and from there a pleasant walk downhill to the beach. There was a kitchen with a fridge and gas cooker, etc so there was no need to leave except for dinner, a tricycle ride to d mall was just over $2. Overall a quiet, comfortable, safe, laidback, and very enjoyable stay
