Top 10 Sarimanok Hotels

This resort is a huge surprise! The premier rooms are exclusive and private with one pool. The balcony is right on top of the river bay but I didn’t find any mosquitoes! Netflix is also a plus with its big Samsung TV as we watched a new Korean series. It’s also very cool at night. The other thing is there’s a big tree surrounded by a lot of fireflies. We didn’t need to take a boat ride to watch them at all!!! There’s also a jogging path very pristine. We’ll definitely go back. The only downside is the service at the lobby. It seems like a family business so the efficiency was not quite as good as in branded resorts. But anyway we were super happy during the stay.

Booked this hotel through agoda. And reason why i use these booking platforms is because i can see the pictures of my desired room. Instead of calling them and booking directly to them. When we arrived, though they allowed us to check in at 12nn, they have given us an entirely different room from the one in the picture. I booked a twin room and they’ve given us 1 double bed room. I booked a room with a window and they’ve given us a very dark lit room. When i complained, they allowed us to do a show room of the twin room. But because we’re all tired of the very early morning flight and we’re all hungry (past lunchtime), we rather chose to settle with the 1st one they’ve given us as we’re too tired to transfer all of our things again. The hotel was very near malls, convenient stores and fastfood chains. I had no problems choosing what to eat for my picky eater 5yr old son. It was along the highway, so we can also ride tricycles right in front of our hotel. It was near the St. Joseph the worker Cathedral. We went on a Sunday and my husband’s birthday so we were able to hear mass that day. At first, When i booked them, i messaged the hotel if they can provide a little something for my husband’s birthday like a mini cupcake will do and i will just have to pay for it. But they did not reply to my request. When i got to the hotel i understood why. It’s just not that kind of hotel. For me, this is just a 1-2 stars hotel. It’s a very old hotel. They’re doing renovations though. I had no problems with my airport transfer, as when we landed their van is already there. But we had to pay 600 pesos for the transfer which is i think is way too much. We could have booked a taxi instead and pay lesser. They’re very accommodating too with our seaport transfer which is free. As we have decided to go to cebu after bohol. There’s not enough legroom for the 3 of us, though the bathroom was big. Speaking of the bathroom, their hot and cold shower doesn’t work properly. I would have suggested for them to change it in a normal water heater instead of having a centralized one. You will end up showering with a very cold water.. that will suddenly be a too hot water after a few seconds then it will turn cold again. I had a hard time bathing my son because of this. Their restaurant were under renovations so there’s no good ambiance while having your breakfast. Their free breakfast is just ok. It’s not good.. but it’s not that bad. The staff were nice except for the ones in the reception area. Overall i would rate this hotel a 2 stars only as it wasn’t really the one i’m expecting in the pictures. The pictures were misleading. I could have booked a much better hotel with the same rate.

Absolutely! A perfect place to relax is like finding an oasis amidst the chaos of everyday life. Our 2nd Team building and Christmas party was held here. The serene atmosphere, coupled with the picturesque surroundings, made it a perfect setting for team-building activities. The facilities were well-maintained, and the amenities provided a comfortable experience for everyone. Will definitely recommend this place for a peaceful experience ❣️

I am happy to have known Hotel Gabriella. I have had a wonderful experience staying in this hotel with my family. The food is very delicious, the interior is great, the pool is just right for my height hehe, the staff are very courteous and accomodating, the room is neat and tidy. It has tv, microwave oven, fridge, and most of all, a safety box for your important docs and stuff. To those who are planning to find a hotel that is affordable and classy, I hope you will include this hotel in your options.😊

I booked a superior sea-view room, but was told not to, and gave a room with three single beds. It is inconvenient to get in and out, it is best to drive by yourself, otherwise the money will be collected randomly when the front desk is called. The only bright spot is that I will ask you what time to eat breakfast, breakfast will be prepared in advance, and you can eat directly at the door.

When you first arrive at the hotel, you notice the beautiful sorroundings, two pools with ocean views, decorated with flowers and plants. Nice decorations and modern looks. They really catfished us with nice pictures of what looked like a dream! However when we opened our room, it was more like a nightmare, 3 beds crammed into a tiny room, dirty bedsheets covered in stains, there was a bug on my moms pillow, and the window with the ocean view that we were promised, had a view of the hotels gym instead. We went to complain to the staff, they wouldn’t know what service was even if it was written on their foreheads. Overall a terrible experience of broken promises, this hotel had potential, but the disappointing service and terrible staff make it a hotel nightmare.

The waiters are very good and the food in the restaurant is very good and very fine. The environment is comfortable and can be said to be a sea-view room. The waiter cleans up the room every day. But the location is mid-level, relatively remote, typhoon is coming, many flying insects, get up in the morning, the ants in one place are very scary, and there are ants in the room.

We stayed here for a night and got very impressed by the size of the room and how cozy it is. The room and comfort room are clean. AC is working but a bit noisy. They have mini ref and a small couch and tv. They have free coffee and bottled water and toiletries. We got the hotel room at a very reasonable price with breakfast. Although we were surprised that they ask for a deposit when we checked in even if the room is paid through my credit card. It was not stated in Agoda, but they will return in after check out. We were expecting that brrakfast would be an a la carte, but it's buffet. But they have few choices only. But overall it's good. I would recommend the hotel. I just got one photo to share. 😁
