The epidemic has not come to the Philippines for three years. This time it opened, I couldn't wait to come. The hotel is still the hotel. The Filipino people are still so optimistic and happy.

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.

JIALEThe appearance of the hotel is very good, the room facilities are very old, not as good as domestic express hotels, cooling by fans, window-type air conditioners, and the sound of the refrigerator is relatively loud. On the wooden floor, if someone walks around next door, the pillow will feel vibrated. Also, the smell of oily smoke in the hotel is more uncomfortable! The location of the hotel is still good, as soon as it comes out is the beach, which is more comfortable, that is, the facilities in the hotel are really average, but the hotel on that island is estimated to be about the same.

Love this family friendly resort. Their family room is big enough for us 3 adults and 2 kids. We added an extra mattress so my mother doesn’t have to go up and down the stairs. We feel at home instantly.
There was a typhoon going around in Philippines but the resort has a restaurant and shops are just a 10min-walk. The pool and dive center is just perfect! The crews are fantastic. Special thanks to Joy who helped to check our reservation, although it was paid through Trip.com.
The best part is they are trying to reduce single use plastic by using big bottles of shampoo and shower gel. Better for the environment.

YANGI booked this room without breakfast. You can add an extra bed. It is suitable for a family. The location of the hotel is close to the town.

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.

Номер просторный, отель в принципе чистый, хоть и все старенькое. Завтракт подают вкусные в соседнем кафе. На ресепшен персонал всегда помогает с вопросами. Минус отеля, что нет своей территории, бассейн находится в другом отеле, куда нужно идти через чужие дома. Пляжа рядом с отелем тоже нет. Мы были с байком, поэтому не было проблем ездить на пляж. В номере бывали муравьи. Самое плохое, что имеются проблемы с интернетом.

ziliang_zIt was assigned by Ctrip, and the previously booked room was oversold. This room is on the mountain, it is tiring to climb the mountain every day. However, the store’s service was superb and helped me solve many problems. If it's a vacation, it's not bad if you don't go down the mountain. If you go down the mountain, it will be very tiring. It takes 20p to 50p to ride a motorcycle up the mountain. Sometimes the mountain pass charges a fee, so sometimes it will be more expensive.
