We loved the location - hidden away from plain sight, yet right on the main road. Very walkable to food and easy to catch a tricycle to travel deeper into town. The staff is amazing! Being a smaller resort, we received great care and attention throughout our stay. Angel and Lyn were the some of the most welcoming office staff we’ve ever experienced. They helped us arrange airport transportation, recommended tours, trusted surfing instructors, and lots of daily food and party recommendations. Nikki, Gemma, and Karen were also very helpful and made sure our stay was comfortable. And despite being a low key spot, the guard Arnie was around after hours to make sure we got in and out of the property easily after a late night. The rooms themselves are perfect for a couple. Just the right size with ample storage and a large bathroom. Easy access to power outlets, lighting, and AC. Since it is a beach town, you should expect a little sand to make its way into the room, but the staff will tidy up daily. The resort itself features a very pretty pool and surrounding gardens with soft grass and fun sand paths that lead to each room. There is also the main lobby/common room which serves as a great place to lounge and work. Plus there is a full kitchen for all guests to use it should they feel the need to cook or heat up leftovers.

The Wi-Fi was probably the only real negative feedback I’d have. I know not expect very high speeds in Siargao, however the actual connectivity was very spotty in the room and the lobby, so handling remote work wasn’t always reliable. Maybe adding boosters or a switching to a mesh network would help? Since there are a lot of water activities around, it would be nice to have additional hanging hooks in the bathroom to accommodate drying. There is a great drying rack by the pool, but we happened to be staying during a rainy week in Siargao. Additional storage in the bathroom would also be a great upgrade

I like the location of this property. Everything is a stone’s throw away, that includes shops, restaurants, ATMs, and of course the night life. Hubby and I did a lot of walking at night exploring the streets. I also appreciate the fact that there is a security guy at night making sure guests are safe. They will help you book for your transport to and from the resort if you have not booked yet, same with the tours.

I wished there was a television set for the downtimes that we chose to stay in our room. I was told the owner did not really intend to put one. Maybe in the future, you can also offer breakfasts since you guys have a very nice common place.

the resort was within reach on all restaurants and important stores you will need in your vacation. its like a hostel but with much more class and warmth and relaxed atmosphere, they have a main space where in you can hve a coffee, cook or even just work for the whole day. nice 10 inches hotel bed and very soft pillows.

its not that i didnt like it but they dont have a television, but who would want to watch tv when your in an island as beautiful as siargao. we had a problem about there security on duty about visitors but, it was resolved properly and they even went over in making up for the issue we had. kudos to the management to that.

Love how serene the place is. The facade was a bit sketchy but the moment we went inside it was like a paradise. Perfectly designed villas and the pool as well. Everything was perfect. Also, the location is the best. Literally surrounded with restaurants, cafe, stores and bars which was the best. And the hospitality of the staffs. Greeted us with smiles and very accommodating. We came in a bit early and they did their best to check us in. All the staff are great but Ate Langlang did a great job with everything. already arranged pickup and drop off even before I ask. Helped us the tours. Made sure we were comfortable. Thanks to Ate Nikki as well for taking a good photos for me and my friend haha Palaka Resort exceeded my expectation!! Will definitely recommend and will go back for sure.

The staff were amazing and very accommodating! They made us feel welcome as soon as we arrived and were there this answer any questions. They made booking tours and renting transport so easy! Really allowed us to just enjoy our beautiful holiday. The rooms and amenities were beautiful and clean! The pool is sooo nice ! And in terms of the location, it’s perfect! Nice and quiet but also in very close vicinity to all the excitement! Very safe location, they even have a security guard to look after you after hours!

Have absolutely nothing bad to say! Everything was perfect

Location — Close to all the establishments we wanted to visit, had a nearby sari sari store too so that was a plus! Staff — So attentive & hospitable, greeted us every time they saw us, attended to our needs (ie towels, etc) Room — Spacious for 2 people, bed was big and comfortable! Had a ref so that was so helpful for our take outs. They also cleaned our room everyday. Bathroom — Spacious, clean and well lit

Aircon could’ve been colder but this didn’t bother us too much!

A place I would like to visit again when I am in Siargao. It is located near the bars and restaurants. It's nice and quiet so you won't hear the noise from outside when you enter the resort. although there was a swimming pool we didn't make use of it. The pool is also made for diving which is cool for divers. The staff was always friendly and helpful. Also the shared kitchen/lounge area is a nice feature of the resort which is a nice way to talk to people who stay there.

Everything was good no complaints.

- the room and the whole resort is beautifully designed with a lot of plants (but there was not a single bug in the room!) - bathroom is huge and very clean with a huge rainforest shower - big and very comfortable bed - good AC and fridge in the room - free water all day - great and clean pool - the staff is very helpful and cute!! I was ill and they offered to drive to the pharmacy for me and get me medicine. They helped with the organization of tours, scooters, surf instructors and airport transport - staff offered to clean the room every day

The resorts location is on point. Many restaurants are near the resort. The room we stayed at was clean, and the AC was working well. There was a small ref with cold bottled water. The staff were awesome in explaining the details of our room upon check-in. And we liked the shared kitchen because we were able to heat up our food, refill our water, and get coffee before we headed out for our tours.

The Wi-Fi connection was not functioning well during the time we stayed at the resort.

Palaka Resort has fantastic staff who helped us to organise all of our transport needs (taxi and motorcycle rental) and graciously helped us when we had a blocked toilet. The room was simple but was clean and had had all of the amenities we needed. Pool was also clean and because there are not too many rooms, was free to use almost anytime we wanted. We were a little weary that the proximity of the pool to the rooms could cause a bit of noise but we had absolutely no issues there. Location is good, nice and close to some good restaurants and only a short ride to Cloud 9 and other surf spots.

Nothing.
