Anilao Beach Club

Watching the sunrise here makes you feel alive, and the atmosphere is nice. The food was just right, and despite a few issues, it's still a good place to stay. I really didn't like the room's architecture. The stairs are almost 80 degrees steep, which feels like an accident waiting to happen, especially in the morning when you're still half asleep.

If calm and peace are what you're after, this place feels like heaven. There's a dive center on site, with shore dives that can go down to 300 meters, or boat dives at a range of sites. The food is good too, and rooms are available at different prices to suit different budgets.

Omg, this place was so dirty and overpriced. I didn't even bother taking photos, it wasn't worth my time.

I was very disappointed with the resort where we got married. Before the wedding, all the arrangements seemed clear and went smoothly, including the per-head price, room costs, and everything else we needed for the day. At first, the wedding day seemed to be going perfectly, but problems came up during and after it. The owner was rude when my family asked for help with the tablecloths. We had been promised they would help us and provide them for free because they already had them. My family also didn't get the free breakfast included in what we paid. We were the only customers besides the foreign divers, so I feel they should have known. At dinner, the manager told me the 50 plates were used up and we had to pay extra. Our agreement was to pay per person, not per plate, and there weren't even 50 guests. I asked how that could be, and they said all 50 plates they'd provided were gone. Maybe some people had used two plates, but the deal was per head. It was my wedding day, so I didn't want to upset myself over it, and we paid for 10 more. We ordered a whole lechon from them, but I never saw the whole pig. We ate some, then I asked my family what had happened to the rest. The restaurant staff said they'd cooked and eaten it already. I paid for the whole thing, but it seemed like they'd only bought a kilo or two to serve us. They also overcharged us for rooms that some people used for only half a day. My own calculation came to a little over 200k, but we paid around 350k, which really surprised me. We stayed a few more days. The employees were polite and the place was very nice, even though the beach wasn't sandy like it looked on the website. I don't know how it is now since the owner has changed.
