"Beautiful hotels, spacious and clean rooms.
The bathroom is large with a beautiful shower.
The rooms are cleaned every 3 days, you find shampoo, bathroom, chiabats, hairdryer need to be asked at the reception.
We had breakfast included that you had to choose the day before, it is not abundant and a little monotone.
The hotel is near the sea but the beach is not beautiful and the sea is dirty.
To find the beautiful sea you need to make h 1 .15 /1.30 machine or motor.

"Very wonderful!
The location was perfect, with good access to the ocean from the room.
The ocean was also beautifully maintained, and we were able to spend the whole day relaxing on the beach.
The water pressure in the shower in our room was weak and cold, but that was the only thing that bothered us. Other than that, the villa was perfect.
The staff were all friendly and wonderful!
They were quick to respond to all kinds of requests.
We had breakfast and dinner, and both were delicious.
I wish we could have stayed longer.
Thank you very much."
"My experience at Princesa Garden was beyond my expectations.
To be honest, I was a bit worried at first because I had read a review saying the resort wasn’t nice and had many issues, especially due to ongoing renovations. But when we arrived, I was pleasantly surprised—it was actually very nice!
The resort was clean, the staff were incredibly accommodating and helpful, and the overall atmosphere was relaxing. The food was great—yes, it was a bit pricey because of the added VAT and service charge, but it was delicious, so it was worth it.
Overall, I would definitely recommend this place! 😊"

"We always make sure to visit Astoria Palawan everytime we go back to Philippines because we all love the place, its peacefullness,their hospitality and cleanliness. Plus to top it all the AMENITIES. kids always enjoy as we felt relax.."
"Cleanliness: 9/10
The room was clean, nice, and tidy. The pillows, bedsheets, and blankets smelled freshly laundered, and the floor and furniture were spotless. Cleanliness is highly maintained not just inside the room, but also in the hallways and other public areas. They do housekeeping every day, change the towels regularly, and always make sure your hygiene kit is fully stocked.
The only issue I had was on my first day—the room wasn’t prepared according to my request, possibly due to an oversight. I had to be transferred to another room, and while it didn’t smell very pleasant at first, it was still clean overall.
Location: 10/10
If you're looking for a peaceful place with a great view but still not too far from the city center, this is perfect! It’s not far from the airport and is surrounded by restaurants, drugstores are near, small stores for cheap things to buy, nearby malls, and groceries—but then the area isn’t crowded. It strikes a great balance between convenience and tranquility.
Btw, if you are just travelling for leisure (DIY),renting a motor to go around is much cheaper than getting a tricycle
Service: 10/10
I stayed here for 3 nights and 4 days, traveling alone. The staff made me feel really comfortable and were always ready to help with anything I needed—from check-in to check-out. Everyone was so friendly and accommodating. Filipino hospitality was truly evident here (Im a Filipino). Special shoutout to the restaurant staff who served breakfast and other meals—they were always smiling, friendly, and attentive.
Amenities: 10/10
Everything was in excellent condition and worked perfectly. I especially appreciated the free airport shuttle—it was very helpful and convenient. Since I was also attending to some paperwork during my stay, I was happy to be able to relax and enjoy the amenities in between.
Definitely worth the price. I’ll surely come back!"
"We wanted to experience the beauty of nature and be close to the underground river tour so we booked this place. This place is absolutely beautiful and everything here is organic. The breakfast is served on time in your villa and everything is freshly harvested and cooked for you. If you want peace, tranquility and the sound of nature then this is the perfect place for you and your loved ones. This place is 1.5 hours away from the airport but 7 minutes away from the underground river tour. It was well worth our stay and we will be back. The staff was absolutely helpful and did everything they could to accommodate us as our check in time was 2am. Thank you Sheridan Organic Farm"
"Service was great, friendly staff who helped my colleagues and I to book a restaurant reservation at short notice. Rooms were really spacious, great for organising our luggage. Amenities were more than sufficient, and wifi and AC was great as well. The location was close to a bunch of drive thrus (Jollibee etc) and it’s across the street from the mall. Just overall great stay!"
"location was not properly identified. Similar reddoor names nearby the location. Elevator was not working. Room has mosquitos and we requeated insect killer spray, Bed has protruding nail which can damaged. Your legs, bedit spray was damaged."
"Lovely little place very near to the airport. Staff were friendly and accommodated breakfast before our early checkout. The pool was a great little place to relax. The courtyard was beautiful. Room fixtures were a bit dated but functional. Would come again!"

MMarshieGot it! Here’s your revised review, keeping the original friendly tone while clarifying the tour offerings and distance to attractions like Honda Bay and the Underground River:

**A Perfect Tropical Escape – Carpe Diem Villas Exceeded Expectations!**
From the moment we arrived at Carpe Diem Villas, we were treated like VIPs! The staff welcomed us with refreshing drinks and big smiles, instantly setting the tone for a relaxing and memorable stay. The check-in process was smooth, and we immediately felt at home in this beautiful, tranquil retreat.
Our villa was spacious, impeccably clean, and beautifully designed—combining modern comforts with a cozy tropical vibe. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and we loved having a private balcony where we could unwind with a cup of coffee in the mornings or a glass of wine in the evenings. The pool area was another highlight—serene, well-maintained, and perfect for lounging under the Palawan sun.
While the villa is located in Puerto Princesa city (not near far-flung attractions like the Underground River or Honda Bay), the hotel made exploring easy by offering convenient tours to these must-see spots - from city tours to island-hopping adventures, ensuring that we can experience the best of Palawan without the stress of planning. Their recommendations for local restaurants and hidden gems were also spot-on!
What truly stood out was the exceptional service. The staff went above and beyond—always attentive, friendly, and ready to help with anything we needed. Their warmth and professionalism made our stay feel extra special.
If you’re looking for a peaceful, well-appointed retreat with outstanding service and easy access to tours (even to faraway attractions!), Carpe Diem Villas is the perfect choice.
PptrNot my favourite hotel. Good location for those travelling to El Nido. Towels were very old and not nice. The view from our window was terrible with so sort of old, unnecessary items thrown away right in from the window- huge mess!
AAlex.StanThe room was basic, but for the price paid it was fine. The shampoo in the bathroom was empty during my nights stay which was a shame.
My biggest issue was the cleanliness of the communal areas. The tiled floors were filthy and covered in clumps of hair and dead insects. Inside the room, cleanliness was better, but there was still stains and marks on furniture and the walls.
Staff were kind and allowed me to have my breakfast at a later time than I’d booked.
EEKATERINASkyWe spent one night, everything was great. Breakfasts were not bad, it's a sin to complain for such a price. We warned in advance about late check-in, check-in went smoothly. We recommend!
AAnonnJust okay. If you’re looking for somewhere to rest I suggest you find another place. It’s close to the highway and is pretty much noisy all the time. In addition to that, the housing cleaning staff are also VERY NOISY. They start working very early in the morning and I know this by the loud chatter in the hallway every single morning. At random times throughout the night you’ll also hear hear loads of outbursts as well. Just very noisy, almost no peace. Breakfast was okay. The receptionist, the server and the driver were quite nice
KKenDucsWe recently had the pleasure of staying here, and I must say it was one of the cleanest hotels I've experienced in Palawan. The location is incredibly convenient, making it easy to access local attractions. However, there was some noise from a nearby bar late at night. It wasn't too distracting for me, especially on the higher floors, so I recommend requesting one of those if you’re sensitive to sound.
The hotel itself is well-maintained, likely due to its recent renovations. The elevator, though small, was smooth and always clean, which added to the overall pleasant experience. The bathroom was a highlight—very clean and comfortable, although I did find the water heater a bit challenging to adjust.
Each room features a smart lock and a smart TV with Netflix and other apps, which is a nice touch. The Wi-Fi was reliable, even on the highest floor, allowing for seamless browsing.
One area for improvement would be the bedding. While the mattress and pillows were decent, a thicker comforter would enhance the sleeping experience, as the provided blanket was quite thin.
The staff were friendly and accommodating, contributing to a welcoming atmosphere. While this may not be a luxury hotel, it offers excellent cleanliness and customer service, making it a great choice for travelers. I would certainly consider staying here again!
AAnonymous UserThis place is fantastic! Location-wise, it’s really great. It’s very near the city’s commercial establishments and great restaurants - 5-minute drive on average. It’s also near the airport. The neighborhood in which it is in is very quiet and peaceful. So if you want a place that’s very accessible but still in a quiet location, this hotel is for you.
I also would like to commend the staff - they’re all very warm and friendly. They were very accommodating and gladly answered all our questions about our travel.
This hotel has a resort vibe so you really get to relax. It has great amenities, a lovely pool, and a relaxing main reception hall with a billiard table and comfy couches. It also has an in-house restaurant which is great for those who don’t want to go out to dine. Our room was very clean, cozy and surprisingly large for its price.
We would definitely book this place again when we visit Puerto Princesa in the future. Definitely worth the price! 🫶
GGuest UserThere was something wrong with the water heater. Even at the lowest setting, the water was still very, very hot. I told the management, but he couldn't do anything.
There were spiders on the ceiling, spider webs on the curtains, ants on the table, and a piece of soap in the bathroom that was not cleaned up by the previous guest.
There is a swimming pool and garden outside, and the environment is pretty good. You get what you pay for.
EEnrique MiceliThe best thing about this hotel is its beachfront location, offering spectacular views and a charming atmosphere. Although there are a few minor maintenance issues, the hotel is a gem—beautiful and cozy. The price is quite reasonable, and the staff's attention is excellent. I would definitely stay here again. The sunsets and the experience of watching the tide come in and out are unforgettable. I give it a 10 out of 10.
The average price for hotels in Puerto Princesa is AED 208 on weekdays, and AED 210 on weekends (Friday-Saturday).
