Siquijor Butterfly Sanctuary Tours

The staff at Yellow Mango Resort were delightful. A wonderful welcome drink followed by time booking excursions. Rooms were very comfortable - clean, spacious, nice towels and toiletries, fridge, and everything worked (tv, safe, plugs). The main floor terraces with chairs and table were great and the facility was well-groomed (the pool was sparkling clean and the grass was scissor cut at the edges). Breakfast was basic but well-prepared and the staff were very accommodating of my coffee addiction (with milk not creamer). My flight was early morning and staff packed a delicious breakfast for me to take to the airport. Evening snacks were readily available (most were pre-packaged and then heated pizza, spring rolls, etc.) - not the healthiest options but….. The location was great - down a dirt road, quiet (except for the neighbour’s dog), safe and just a ten minute walk to the main shopping/tourist area. It was a good starting point for boating and land tours on the island. It gets my five star rating for a mid-range hotel.

Yes, it’s clean and spacious

This hotel was amazing, the rooms were fantastic, the breakfast buffet was delicious, but the staff were the best. I believe their names were Joan (there were 2 ladies named Joan) and Shem (I didn't get the spelling), they were the most helpful and nicest people ever at the breakfast buffet. I highly recommend this hotel. The only drawback, they really didn't want you swimming in the ocean - the first time they said it was after 5 and no lifeguard was on duty, the second time it was the middle of the day and they said no lifeguard on duty. There were several groups wanting in, finally they brought a lifeguard and we were able to get in water. They really need to fix that - just let it be swim at your own risk. Snorkeling didn't seem to be that great, clear water but not much to see.
