Pet Friendly Hotels in Oriental Mindoro

Our stay was truly amazing, made even more special by the excellent accommodation and outstanding service we received throughout our visit. From the very beginning, everything was handled seamlessly, allowing us to relax and fully enjoy the experience. A big part of what made our trip so smooth and stress-free was the incredible assistance from the manager, Ethen. She was very easy to talk to, approachable, and genuinely attentive to our needs. Even before we arrived, she had already taken care of all the important arrangements for us. From organizing our pick-up at the port to ensuring a comfortable transfer to the hotel, everything was perfectly coordinated. What impressed us even more was how she helped arrange all our tours. We didn’t have to worry about planning or logistics at all—every activity was thoughtfully scheduled, making our trip both convenient and enjoyable. Her effort and dedication really made a difference, and it felt like we were in very capable hands the entire time. Shoutout also to their staff Kate for ensuring our boat tickets. The accommodation itself was equally wonderful—clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, providing us with the perfect place to rest after our daily activities. Everything about our stay felt organized, relaxing, and enjoyable. Overall, we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The combination of great accommodation and Ethen’s-the manager exceptional service made our stay unforgettable. We highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a hassle-free and well-organized getaway.

We stayed four nights at Casalay Boutique Villas and Dive and overall had a wonderful experience. The location is truly special – stunning views, beautifully designed villas, a very well-kept property, and breathtaking sunsets by the pool or from the terrace. The atmosphere is quiet and relaxing, perfect for a luxurious getaway. Be aware that getting there can be a bit tricky. Buses from Manila to Batangas City run regularly, but the last ferry departs at 4 PM. Make sure to plan your trip accordingly – we ran into some issues because of this. The food is more expensive than local options, but very clean and easily adaptable to vegetarian needs. While the vegetarian menu is limited, the manager was very accommodating and open to adjustments, which we truly appreciated. There are plenty of activities: a paid boat transfer to Secret Bay, trips to Sabang, diving, massages, and more. Just keep in mind to clarify whether you book activities through the hotel or third-party providers, as prices can vary and surcharges are common. Some small downsides: our room was only cleaned on two of the four days, which didn’t meet the highest hygiene standards, and the beach could be a little cleaner. Still, we had a very enjoyable stay. The combination of friendly staff, beautiful setting, and unique location makes this hotel highly recommendable.

Spotless rooms, obviously recently modernised - smelled clean if that’s possible. Bed comfy sheets and towels clean. Complaints - no kettle in room but available in well equipped shared kitchen..but no one wants to go and get hot water for morning coffee. Next we were in room 301 right next to the kitchen and some selfish westerns decided to have a loud conversation in the kitchen at midnight. Other than that I’d go back because of its cleanliness but not to room 301.

This hotel is very new and somewhat inconvenient. It is high on a hill which was not very accessible by walking as major roadworks complicated the route and also slowed traffic up and down. While only 10 minutes away from the main Sabang area (climbing down), the climb up made it unpleasant and inconvenient either on foot or in a vehicle. The room was simple with limited facilities (no fridge or TV) and not competitively priced compared to other hotels in the area. Breakfast was spam and rice. The pool area was unwelcoming (exposed and bare of furniture). Service and support is pleasant but minimal. The place was empty and a little sad when we stayed (even though the town was busy). We were quite glad to leave. I think the place needs development and is a work in progress and when ready, it might be nice, but not yet.

This was my first visit. The location was excellent, about a 3-minute walk from the beach. There was a tricycle stop nearby so getting around wasn't too much of a problem. There is no reception so check-in may be a little confusing. I asked a man nearby to call the person in charge and then I went to my room. The room was what you'd expect for the price, but there was no hair dryer. If price and access to the beach are important to you, I think it's a good choice!

The hotel room is very clean. They do not provide thick quilts, only a very thin sheet, which will wake you up from the cold at night. The room is powered by solar panels, and the high-power air conditioner is often disconnected at night. There are two swimming pools downstairs in the hotel, which are not very deep and can be used for practicing diving. The hotel's breakfast is okay, but the price is slightly more expensive than other 4-star hotels on the island. The waiters will keep smiling. If you want to eat in the hotel, please note that it is not recommended if you are very hungry, because their chefs are very good at cooking. Slow, you have to wait for at least 40 minutes, and except for breakfast, other dishes are not very delicious, compared to the restaurants on Sabang Beach. The waiters are very ignorant and won't pour you water. Even if you ask them for a glass of water, they won't arrange it after the meal, and they won't prepare paper towels for you. You can find them to go diving in the hotel, but their boat will not wait for you after taking you to the diving spot. This is very unfriendly. If your accompanying companion does not want to dive, he will have to float on the sea first, which is very unsafe. The diving instructor is very professional and patient, which is very good. The last point I have to complain about is that I asked the hotel to help me book the ferry ticket. The 3:30 ferry ticket was a full hour and 30 minutes late, and the one I booked was not a fast boat but a big boat. This was very detrimental to my future travels. friendly. Overall, this hotel is worth it, clean and sanitary, and professional diving instructors. It's just that the hotel's service needs to keep up.

Cost-effective, cheap during the May Day holiday. Internal hygiene is good, towels and other supplies are dehaired, toothpaste, toothbrush and shampoo are charged, it is best to bring your own. Very close to the beach, 3 minutes walk, there are many diving clubs next to it. Surrounding dining is also OK, Korean restaurants are not bad.
