Resorts in Mambajao

I've never experienced a more welcoming staff, everybody was amazing. The location, the people, the food and the atmosphere were perfect!! 10/10

Our stay at Balihao was the highlight of our stay in the Philippines: the luxurious villa with a private pool, the restaurant (one of the best meals we had in the Philippines), the breathtaking view, the overall atmosphere... Honestly, we hesitated at first because there weren't that many reviews, but we are so glad we came. We stayed for 4 nights but decided to extend our stay because we loved it so much. Thanks for the memorable stay; we wish we could have stayed longer! And special thanks to the great team that made us feel at home!

Nice facilities good food friendly staff

Fantastic and professional staff. Beautiful resort made with a lot of love. Very friendly owner and super friendly hospitality. Everything was just simply perfect.

Big, comfortable room with porch, good breakfast. You can also have other meals in this restaurant and the food was good. Nice and maintained property. Nice location on top of the cliffs. Very nice sunset view. Staff is helpful and friendly. And the owner (Frank), who also lives there, went over expectations helping us with the situation when ferry from the island was cancelled on our departure date. (At the end the best option was to wait for next day.) You will need a scooter or a car to explore the island and Frank can organize it for you (pick up and return at the property). There is not much traffic on the island which makes selfdriving enyojable and google maps works just fine. Some other info: in feb 24 white island (sandbank) was P550 for a boat, good for 4 people + P50 pp for environmental fee. Starts at 5:30 am. A lot of parking space there. I was the only one searching for the corals there with not much success. :( Mantinique island: 750 for boat (up to 6 ppl) + 75 pp. And +75 pp for snorkeling in the marine park on the island payable on the island - a lot of fish there, the reef is 2-3m deep, so corals are not that close. But it is nice. 3 hours are more than enough. Giant clams sanctuary is still closed. They are waiting for the government approval. You wont be able to swim where the clams are, but the beach narby has quite a good corals (but nothing special). Try the cold and hot water pools on the island, there are many and all maintained quite well. Entry fees 50 or 75pp. Check Beehive restorant some 5km down the road for a drink or dinner with the sunset view in a Gaudi inspired environment :) If you plan to visit the island mainly for the snorkeling, I would pick some other destination. Beware that there are limited options to get to the island or to leave it. Ferry to Jagna(Bohol) can be cancelled any day. So you can buy a ticket only at the port on a departure date...

Such a nice place and perfect view so far

The view was absolutely stuninng, waking up everyday with the vast sea in front of us was healing for the soul. The area near the location was full of life and vegetation and there was a hot beach just nearby. The staff was as helpful as can be, very quick and very understanding. The resort catered to our every need.

Friendly staff, great food and amazing location. The sunset on the front is stunning and the photos just don’t do it justice !! Would 100% stay again

Really nice place, the staff is super friendly, the place was clean and super quiet. You could hear the ocean from bed. They have a good vegetarian option in the menu and good breakfast. We did a yoga lesson in the morning and was very nice. We would love to back.

the room was pleasantly clean and despite the lack of AC, it was not humid at all! I love the food too and the staff are great and friendly (shoutout to Oshiii)
