We were looking forward to experience the Cebuano BBQ buffet dinner but apparently it’s closed for the whole month of September. I was just informed through e-mail on the morning of my booking. Nonetheless, our Benjarong Restaurant experience was excellent. They happily accommodated my request—to sing happy birthday to my mom. They also gave us a complimentary cake, which was a really cute chocolate bear cake. The food was exquisite and very healthy. We swam at the infinity pool. The lifeguard was really attentive. Overall, everyone in the staff were courteous and attentive to our needs. We’ll definitely come back soon!

Its good enough for its price. Decent room with working AC. You will only be given a roll of tissue paper as complimentary. No toiletries, no hot water ( Athough there is a heater machine but its not working). Near some fast food and one jeepney ride to the market.
