Moalboal resorts

Pros: Everything was more than perfect. The managers are always available and patient. The food is so tasty and not expensive. The sight, the rooms met our expectations. I deeply recommend this resort.

Pros: Management extremely accommodating

Pros: This was not my first stay in Blue Orchid and it was great again. Clean and comfy rooms, staff is superb, willing to help you with anything you want, delicious meals and drinks in restaurant and crystal clear water and first class house reef. Simply, this is perfect place for relax.

Pros: Food and hospitality.

Pros: The staff were helpful and happy to help when they could. The food is well prepared and catered for multiple serious food allergies with ease and treated it with full seriousness. The canyoneering was really good; initially paying 2500per person felt too much but the reliability of Cecil (the recommended) the guide made for a fantastic experience.

Pros: Great retreat right on the sea front. A Diver’s paradise and great snorkeling too. Staff is also impecable

Pros: Having our room overlook the ocean was beautiful. The staff were really friendly and able to inform us about all the activities on offer. We went swimming with the whale sharks, scuba diving, canyoning and snorkelling. The guide for our try of scuba diving was really patient and calming for first timers who were a little nervous about breathing deep under water. Would return.

Pros: We stayed at Blue Orchid two weeks ago for three nights. The management and team were great hosts, incredibly welcoming and great company. The resort had a lovely sunset setting right onto the beach. The rooms were basic but large and have the most beautiful view across to the next island. Although a little secluded it was nice to be away from the chaos and noise of the centre of Moalboal, yet only a short tricycle ride away. The road down to resort needs some repair work but remains accessible. You are also able to walk along to white beach from the hotels own “private” beach. The restaurant on site was excellent the menu had great options and a good variety. We had absolutely no complaints about any of the food or drinks we ordered (partial to the odd cocktail) and the kitchen staff again were friendly and helpful. We also did some diving with Richard. My husband is a Padi but I have only dived once about 10 years ago so was a bit nervous. Richard took us in the pool to do a refresher with Adam and taught me all the basics. This made such a difference whilst out on the dive boat. The whole time I felt completely supported and that Richard was in control (contrary to my last trip), he was great at helping me relax and when ready encouraging me to do my own jacket. I finished the trip absolutely loving diving, feeling like I had learnt a lot and was thrilled to have been fortunate enough to have seen quite a few turtles. We also booked the canyoning tour through the hotel which was great fun from start to finish. Cecil (the tour guide) Was fun, a keen photographer and very environmentally and safety conscious. Contrary to other guides we saw in the canyon, who rushed the tours, didn’t take take safety seriously and was not so respectful of the environment. In summary great, lovely team and excellent tours. Would definitely recommend.

Pros: Great hosts!We only had two days at Moalboal and the staff went out of their way to accomodate us to ensure we got to everything we had planned!

Pros: I had an awesome time at Blue Orchid! I had only planned to stay 2 nights and ended up staying 4. The staff there is amazing. I loved the personalized the experience they offer to each guest. From the get-go, they were always on point, even the little things like sitting down to check you in or having a conversations about booking expeditions felt tailored to me and that didn’t go unnoticed. Matt and Emily went above and beyond to make sure I enjoyed my time there, booking me on last minute expeditions and suggesting experiences I hadn’t considered. My lack of itinerary may have been frustrating to some but they accepted it with ease and made my trip one of the most memorable I’ve had. I must tell you, some of my native Filipino friends are even jealous of the things I got to do. Steven and Michelle also did an excellent job in organizing the dives and interacting with me in the evening hours. Getting to sit down and chat with them felt like hanging out with friends and surely added to my desire to stay at the resort longer. Their knowledge and familiarity with the reefs and surrounding dive sites made each trip seamless and enjoyable.

Pros: Staff was kind but price is to high for Philippines

Pros: Amazing location for snorkeling. We saw so many turtles just in front of the hotel. The dive shop is very well run and so easy to access. The sardine run is unmissable! Side note that we don't approve of the whale shark feeding in Oslob - it negatively impacts the animals' migration habits.

Pros: Pictures look nicer than the hotel in reality. Maybe the only plus point is we always left the hotel way before they start serving the breakfast so when we were there, they prepared the sandwiches, fruits and water for us the night before. However the sandwiches were not very delicious though.

Pros: The swimming pool.

Pros: The bar has games which is fun (the music is not good though), the swimming pool and the bay area. I would suggest the staff to inform guests about the bay area, we only found out after snorkeling the last two days that by going futher away from the bay, the snorkeling experience is completely different: beautiful corals and fish and some more importantly I spotted one turtle after the wall. It is breathtaking and had we known we had to gp a bit further in we definitely would have gone snorkeling every day.
