Ticao Island, Bicol hotel rooms at the Independent

"We stayed in 4th floor and the elevator was not working "

"Probably one of the better options in town besides the cherish hotel. The rooms were clean, restaurant had great food and staff was friendly. Would recommend. "

"This was the perfect location for easy access to boat trips out to swim with the whale sharks. This was our sole reason for going to Donsol, and we weren't disappointed. It was a magical experience!"

"Beautiful property in a nice location. Very well maintained and has all you need for a short break. The staff are all wonderful. We had a great stay! "

"I’ve never experienced a better staff than these wonderful people at the Altamar, my girlfriend and I had such a wonderful time enjoying the beautiful scenery, beach, pool and food! The staff surprised us on numerous occasions with a romantic dinner table and breakfast table outside with candles and beanbags! This was my first trip to the Philippines and I’ve never in my life received the wonderful treatment of the staff, thank you for everything! This is the #1 place to stay!! "

"The pool was dirty, the beach was covered in garbage. The room smelled bad and there were ants on the bed. We booked the room then decided to leave. Lost the cost of the room but didnt sleep with the ants. Went to the resort next door instead "
