Beach Hotels in Olango Island

Had a great 3 nights'stay at The Reef. From arrival to departure, everything went very well. In Cebu/Mactan their is a large choice of hotels, but i would definetely come back at The Reef, just for the great staff and their sense of hospitality/services. Check-in went super smooth and was done in less than 5 minutes. Had chosen a premier sea view room with balcony. Room is very spacious, good amenities, and of course great view, have added some pictures. A special note also to the housekeeping staff, spotless and clean room, made daily. Breakfast was great as well, plenty of choices for all taste, the live cooking station for your morning eggs is a real plus. Brewed coffee in the morning, good but not wow. Had daily a cappucino and freshly squeezed orange juice at their coffee shop, The Bakery. Here i must say that it is so far in the Philippines, the best cappucino i had, right balance between coffee/milk, well done and congrats to the Barrista. Had 1 time also dinner there, food was good and tasty, i would recommend less sauce for the pasta Alfredo, it was really too much liquid, but not a major issue, just some space for improvement. Had also as take away a Caesar salad, tasty, but would suggest proper fork with take away order, not very comfortable to eat a salad with a spoon, even an hybrid spoon/fork. Had also meals at their regular restaurant The Kitchen, good variety of dishes, tasty food, try the dumplings you won't regret. Beach area clean and safe, use water shoes as there are rocks in the water. Great snorkeling spots, lots of Nemo fishes and other species, a pleasure to spend time in the water. The hotel propose snorkeling material to rent, probably good to rent fins as it takes space in a luggage, for the rest i would say buy your own equipment, mask+snorkel rental is 400 Pesos per hour. Cheap but with all the fishes you can easely spend 4h a day in the water if not more. Tried also their Spa with a 60min body massage.

Excellent location and service

Very nice apartment, really enjoyed staying here. Only downside was we found it slightly difficult to access the beach for free - but other than that it was great

Great area with restaurants, 7/11, Starbucks etc. 16th floor. A very nice welcoming with fruit etc. Also has filtered water which is great. Wifi a bit flaky but that’s not the hosts fault. We had a great 5 nites here before leaving Cebu. It is close to airport.

Clean, tidy, nice views, safe place with absolutely everything you may need. Will return when in Mactan.

Comfortable clean room, great location. Have booked again and will definitely stay here every time we fly into Cebu

Very nicely designed Condo with all the amenities and essential things for a good long stay, just one suggestion should keep an Iron too.

Very clean, good AC, Laundry machine, TV with all the streamings, good shower, Nice breakfast. So far one of the best place we’ve been in Ásia .

Very clean and fully furnished 💯

I like how welcoming the hotel staffs are, all smiles and very accomodating. The beach and pool outside was very nice although very crowded, it's understandable for we went when it was summer. I enjoyed swimming in the pool area because they also have a bar . They also have a pool area inside the hotel but I didn't have the time to try. Location wise, it is quite far if you are there for activities like tours so better choose tours that includes transfer within the hotel area for your convenience. The place itself is secure and accessible with lots of restaurants and markets around it. You can find 7eleven, robinsons and food park nearby. Taxi bay and and public transport is only few minutes walk away.
