Hotels Near Calaguas Island in Camarines Norte

While en route to Calaguas last summer, my bestfriend and I decided to stay the night at Hotel Formosa to explore the capital of Camarines Norte - Daet. We booked the the hotel upon the recommendation of a friend who had stayed there before. We arrived early at around 1pm but we understand that the check in time is 2pm, which is standard for all hotels. We were lucky enough to chance upon the owners of the property who were very welcoming. While waiting, they offered us a complimentary sandwich and premium options as a welcome drink - from a glass of wine, pineapple juice and a cup of Nespresso coffee. Being the coffee lovers that we are, we opted for the Nespresso. We then proceeded to our room (we booked the superior suite) which we were delighted to see was spacious, spot-on clean and had a balcony that allowed us to enjoy the view of lush greenery. Suffice to say, we had a good night's sleep. The breakfast was also one of the highlights of our stay as I still think about the omelette we had to this day. Overall, a remarkable stay and I highly recommend booking Hotel Formosa if you find yourselves in the quiant city of Daet. Will surely be back!

The place was nice. It is a resort after all. There were two huge pools and slides and the room was ok for group sharing. There was no restaurant services when we were there and only a guard was there to let us in as we arrived around 9pm. Wifi and TV werent working. Wifi was fixed. TV not fixed. The place is 2 km away from city center.
