The rooms are relatively small but we didn’t mind at all. The hotel resort is in a really quite place, so if you want you’re peace and quite it’s perfect for you. We only stayed for one night but we don’t have anything to complain. The pool are is really nice.

The view was great. Love the honey room suite. We reserved multiple rooms and were a little disappointed with their lower quality room options, would only recommend the 3 rooms with the sea view. Other than that it was a great resort.

Beautiful small resort in quiet area
Beautiful landscaping, nice pool, with small bungalows. For us the air con unit was too loud but we enjoyed our stay. Cangdoki is on the north side of Siquijor, it's quieter there than the south side of the island.

Hidden Gem
Awesome place to overview the ocean from the pool. We had family room, but only for 2 people so it was more than big enough. Sheet were clean and tidy, just kitchen was missing dishes, pots etc. Staff in restaurant was helpful, they sent a guy up the tree to get us a fresh coconut. Staff at the Reception was less helpful. She couldnt get scooter for us or tricycle, saying everything is booked out. We had to walk to next resort and wasnt a problem to get a scooter from there. Place is a bit far from everywhere but great for peaceful stay.

The property is large and in a quiet area. It is quite pretty. However, the rooms are old and outdated. At night, the dogs are barking constantly and someone was burning trash all night long. The fumes seeped into the rooms and made our lungs hurt. We complained to the staff and changed resorts the next day.

View to die for!
Lovely place, still being developed but to no inconvenience to guests. The staff make the place, very helpful, friendly and always around to help out. The room was nice, although the bathroom was a little basic but I’ve found this is common in the Philippines unless staying in a super swanky resort. The pool and views are to die for. Food was excellent and they even cooked some fish we brought from the local market for us! Staff were most accommodating, they put an extra bed in our room, sorted out good mopeds for us and arranged diving at the in house Center (although I wasn’t able to go for personal reasons in the end). It’s a little out of the way but this was fine by us as we like the quieter life and everywhere on the island is easily accessible with mopeds or a tricycle!!

Great value for the money.
We stayed in one of three bungalows overlooking the infinity pool and ocean. Great vistas from our bungalow windows and dining area. The staff was exceptional at this small resort. Very courteous and kind, helpful, and hard working. The dive master was very knowledgeable and professional during the 3 dives I did. Helped with your gear etc. My wife and I enjoyed the food and the hospitality here and would definitely return again. Thx everyone for making our stay so enjoyable.

Thank you for your short and direct review. We apologize for the maintenance and construction work that was on going while we did set that expectation for you that all work as done before 5:00pm of each day. Our construction and maintenance work is part of our commitment to grow and provide more choices as well as improve our services. We would also like to say that your "personal" request to our staff was duly noted and that service is not something we offer as i would imagine not a lot of resorts or resort staffs do especially in our country. Furthermore, we do reply as promptly as we can through other means of communication including, especially online since basic mobile phone services are very limited in our area. Part of our charm is that you get to getaway from cellular or standard phone services so you can relax and enjoy your vacation. We hope you'll continue to have a great trip and cheers!

Never again!
Very disapointing When we arrived at the hotel we were blown away by the amazing views. However the possitive feeling quickly faded. As we arrived we asked if we could have lunch in the restaurant, but they did not know where the chef was! So we were told to go to a competitor instead. The shower gives you 22 drops of water a min if you are lucky, but the overall poor service from the staff was still what surprised us the most. In the morning we went to the restaurant to have some breakfast but they had a fraction of what was on the menu. So fish was our only option so we rented a motorbike to go out and have some breakfast elsewhere. When we returned at 2pm in the afternoon our room had not yet been made. The had apparently forgotten even though there was about 10 staff and we were the only guests in the hotel. Bed had very uncomfortable as it had a huge whole in the middle of the bedframe. So if you want poor service an uncomfortable bed then this place is for you. Can really not recomend

Thank you for your candor and thorough feedback. We will look into your review and investigate the matter. While we are a simple operation with baby steps still infront of us, We take pride in the services we provide as proven through our immense review base from other platforms as well as through this very OTA. As per the general thought of things, our staff appreciates greatly your kindness and well minded manner when things got difficult for you as it was, quite unfortunately the very first time they have encountered the challenges that were afforded to your stay here. We have been operating pretty recently but have well over 1000 guests and we've never been challenged as much. Thank you, we appreciate your review and we can only hope to pay it forward.

Hôtel très accueillant, personnel aux petits soins. John est très sympathique. .les prix du restaurant sont un peu cher et pas assez copieux et avons mangé souvent à l'extérieur très proche .la piscine est un plus indéniable et en avons profité. C'est un endroit très tranquille pour les gens en recherche de calme.n'hesitez pas à demander à mettre en route la filtration de la piscine, car ce n'est pas automatique. Le service lavage des vêtements est top. Resort à recommander. Structure de diving sympa à recommander.
