Mindoro, Mimaropa hotel rooms at the Independent

"Excellent location, extremely friendly staff including a wonderful dive crew, and very good food. One of the best hotel stays I’ve had. "

"Staff are very kind and helpful, they made sure we had what we needed. I booked a room for 2 people but I chose a bigger room because I was anticipating to have some relatives coming with us. So there were 4 of us who showed up for the room. I was expecting I would be charged for the 2 extra people but they didn’t charge me. The location is very nice if you want a quiet place to relax. We had the whole beach to ourselves most of the time but not advisable if you have kids because the ocean is deep in this area, but good for diving and snorkeling. Room is outdated and needs improvements especially the washrooms. The place is not suitable to people with knee problems because of the steep stairs going up the road. Overall, we had a good stay 😊"

"Room was beautiful, perfectly clean and smelled nice. The staff was super friendly, bossman even helped me try to fix my scooter when i asked for some tools! The premises are gorgeous, the breakfast was tasty and the vibe was generally calm, relaxing and comfortable. The AC is a bit dated but did a reliable job nonetheless. If i had to critisize something, the water pressure in the shower could be a little better. All in all still a 5 star experience for me!"

"The staff is amazing. The beach is better than the white beach. An experience unparalleled truly."

"Papa Fred's is ideally located to restaurants, nightlife and transportation. They have an exceptionally friendly and helpful staff. I stayed for 11 days and it was a pleasure."

"The staff were great, receptive, courteous and knowledgeable. Quiet and peaceful to say the least."
