Absolutely loved the 4 days we spent there. Good place for relaxation. We got a sea view facing the east, sunrise from the balcony was absolutely splendid! A little far from the city, but the stay is well worth the travel and a perfect retreat from the hustle and bustle of the city.

Ok, so this is a top end elite resort. Although I will still give 5 stars, there are few things you should know; 1. No nighttime entertainment at all. I was there Friday, Sat, Sunday. Lounge was empty. If there was even just a piano player it would have been nice. Also nice for their business. 2. You are pretty much stuck in hotel. Sort of like a compound. Area around is island life. City is a hike and much traffic always. 3. If you plan on doing the Whale Shark excursion,sardines, sea turtles, do know that you will leave 3am, 3-4hour ride there, 5-6 hour ride back. The ride is not fun. 4. Same menu every night. Food was good, but again you can walk to anything. Otherwise, pools, view, rooms, beauty, service are all incredible. This place makes for Instagram Billionaire photos.

Stayed for 4 days, most of it was pleasant. The room was comfortable and clean, the pool was great (as a result chairs are hard to come by during busy hours), and the breakfast spread was good as well. Gym was pretty well equipped as well, although it gets quite hot in there. My main gripe was that the wifi in my room was basically unusable, and I had to rely on my phone data.

Very comfortable room, bed was firm, wifi was fast, and the buffet breakfast was probably one of the best we’ve had in our stay in Philippines, especially when wife is part of the Astoria group. The Bakery’s tall layered chocolate cake is amazing!

Staff extremely friendly and helpful. One of the most beautiful hotels I've ever been to. The view alone is to die for! And the pools are pristine! The buffet is delicious but the dinner menu is even better. The place is newer, I believe so there are nooks and crannies that are still under construction. The hotel is in a private secluded area but that shouldn't be an issue if you are searching for peace and quiet. The surrounding areas leading to the hotel is a bit sketchy but once you get into the hotel, it is definitely worth the trip.

The hotel offers beautiful seaview the moment you step into the lobby. The staff were always around to help even with the smallest of requests. All staff were polite and extremely service oriented. The king bed is very comfortable and the room is clean. What we didn't like was the half hour limit for the use of the recreation room and that use of other facilities like the kayak was payable at high charge. Usually resorts offer these amenities as part of the room charge. The breakfast spread is sumptuous, and the pork adobo deserves special mention.

We had an excellent, albeit short, stay at the Reef Island Resort. Although we were only there for a day between flights, we wish we could have stayed longer. The hotel and grounds are beautiful with many nice places to relax. The food in the restaurants was some of the best we have had in the Philippines. Our bed was so comfortable and the air conditioning was top notch. The view from the pool was beautiful. We enjoyed chatting with the helpful and friendly staff, namely Kyle and the two Kens. If we are ever back in Mactan we would definitely stay again, and would recommend this hotel without hesitation to anyone looking for a relaxing and rejuvenating stay.

We really enjoyed our stay here at the reef. The staff are great and looked after us. The menu is expensive. The slippers that come with the room are not appropriate attire for the hotel, I slipped twice and hurt my wrist due to the wet floors. There were also no wet floor signs at the time of me slipping, no one was around to help me, it hurt alot, I cried. Only wear the slippers in the room. The breakfast had lots of options but the overall vibe was not good, people overfilling their plates to the point of greed. You should charge for wastage because people did lots of wasting. The breakfast area was busy and not cleaned it wasn't very appealing.
