Very Good
GGuest UserWe really enjoyed our stay at this hotel. It's conveniently located on a lively central street with plenty of cafes and shops. Nearby is a market and a dock for boat trips on wonderful excursions. Everything you need is there. The staff is very pleasant, friendly, and welcoming.
Special thanks to manager Sharmane for her incredible help and support. Thank you!
VVictoria&JessiMy overall experience is good! I'm the type of person who prefers active travelling, so the hotel is needed literally just for sleep, shower and storing stuff.
My requirements for the hotel were good proximity to the city center and nice room with hot shower. Well, the location is truly good, it's a bit on the hill so to get to the city center you just need to come down. In the same building there is a great cafe DAYO who offer 10% discount per day for the Oceana Bay hotel's guests.
During our trip to Philippines, Coron was the last destination and the 4th hotel we stayed at, and that was the only one with some room facilities issues. When we checked-in it turned out there is no water in the shower, the staff truly tried to be helpful, the receptionist girl offered us to stay in another upgraded room before the problem will be solved. The thing is when one day later we had to return to the room the problem with the water wasn't solved, we had to contact staff all the time which for sure was absolutely inconvenient, especially when water could be cut off during taking shower. At that point nobody cared already, there were no offers to change the room or to offer us a discount. The siphon from the sink was leaking, so every time you wash your hands, the bathroom floor is immediately in water.
The AC is truly loud, but this is absolutely normal for Philippines, as well as the absence of hair dryer. Nice thing that the hotel unlimitedly provides drinking water in the hall. The hotel also offers tours, bike rent, transfer to the airport, but I'd suggest to check it out in the city first, we've found more convenient and better price offers there.
LLeah_Bstayed there for 3 nights. breakfast was alright, got a range of options; international and local. room was decent, included all basic needs and a drying rack outside your door. boat trip info are available at the front desk. however, the hotel is uphill meaning a bit of a walk every time you want to go to town/ main street
IIren_irinka_Upon arrival, we found out that the Ricardo Hotel was fully booked, so we had to stay in a half-empty building next door.
Overall, the room wasn't bad. It had a balcony and hot water. However, there was no shower kit provided. The room description mentioned a hairdryer, but there wasn't one at all. The sink drained very slowly! On our last day, there was no water in the toilet. Tom, a staff member, was very helpful and tried his best to assist us with everything we asked for. Big thanks to him 🙏.
And that rooster crowing at midnight – that's a special kind of crazy! 😂 I think he's ready for the soup pot! 🙈
The hotel's location isn't ideal, but there's a 24-hour McDonald's nearby. Getting from the hotel to the town center and the pier (where boats depart for tours) costs 50-60 Philippine pesos for two people on a tricycle.
The hotel staff booked a tricycle transfer for us to the pier in the morning, for our boat to El Nido. However, the driver quoted an excessively high price, comparable to what we paid for a minivan from the airport. Considering it's not a long ride at all, it was quite unpleasant.
All in all, it's livable, especially considering the cost. We booked our stay not long before check-in, so we didn't have many other options.
GGuest UserThe location is great, very close to the restaurant and the port, the environment is comfortable and bright, the staff are very friendly and helpful, the room equipment is comfortable and tidy, and the breakfast is also very rich, I will stay here again next time
IInbar GeraThe place is really top notch, from every aspect.
Phisically, it is very nice - the room is clean and well maintained, has a working air conditioner and water heating at the shower, and it is very quite at night.
Breakfist is cheap and good.
The stuff is very friendly and available.
Two thing that bought me:
1) Breakfeast is said to be up to 8:00, one day I woke up late and it was offered to me at around 11:00 (it is manually cooked for each customer, so it is hassle)
2) On checkout, i did not remember if i had a deposit or not, the owner enevtually agree to give me an equivalent ammount, even though he did not think i had the deposit (still not sure if i had) just to keep its reputation, it is not going any more honest than that.
Highly recommanded !
GGuest UserThe location is good, center. Nearby are restaurants and cafes.
The beds are clean, the pillows are also clean.
Plumbing needs updating.
The air conditioner is noisy at night, you have to sleep with earplugs.
Breakfast is very meager: no fruit, basic butter, cheese.
Wi-Fi signal is not stable.
A huge negative towards the hotel employee: we had to go to the ferry to El Nido by 7:30 o'clock. She advised arriving at the ferry terminal in 2!!! hours. For what? So that we wait there for 2 hours for the ferry to depart? Are you out of your mind?
It’s good that we didn’t listen to her and left at 6:45. And we all managed to do it. Incompetent employee.
AAfterainnThere are many types of breakfast, you can choose in advance every day. The environment is good, the hotel itself can provide breakfast, lunch and dinner at affordable prices. It's just that the air-conditioning cabinet in the room is loud and noisy. People who are sensitive to noise must wear earplugs. It can be said that there is no wifi, and there is basically no signal when connected. It’s best to buy a local phone card, which is faster than Unicom’s international traffic that a friend bought. There is one issue that has to be mentioned. I stayed for 4 days, only one day I put up a sign to clean the room, and the other days were DND. However, on this day, my AirPods disappeared when I returned from sea. Such things that are not clear inside the room really affect the mood. I hope that all guests who will stay in the future will take good care of their personal belongings.
