Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park

We really loved the hotel! When we booked there weren't many reviews because it's so new (only 4 months open), but it's even better than it looks in the pictures on the website. The room is really really big with an amazing bed. The beach and pool are so beautiful. You can go snorkeling (it's free and there's a lot to see) or kayaking. There is a small beach, like a sand bank you can go by kayak and it's a little paradise. We also booked a private island tour, which was amazing. We didn't think that there would be a nicer place than the Maldives, but this might be it. We stayed for four nights and could have stayed longer! Because the hotel just opened, only one of the two pools was open and not all the rooms. So it was real quiet (which we liked), but if your looking for a lot of entertainment, this isn't the place to go. They don't serve alcohol at the hotel, but they warn you in advance and even last minute you can buy alcohol and take it with you on the island, You can put it in the fridge and they serve your own wine bottles in coolers, so no problem with that!

Pros - A view to 'die' for - New Swimming pool and Jacuzzi Cons - No extras - for everything in addition (extra coffee, water, etc. you have to pay for) - Owner should be less visible and not use the dinner place as his office to keep an eye on the staff - Rooms OK, but need some maintenance. Aircon is like a Fokker 50 engine - We expected more for the price we paid - Pictures on Expedia are well presented
