GT Seaside Inn

Our favorite part was the peaceful setting. GT Seaside Inn is only minutes from downtown, and waking up to the ocean and mountain views was so calming. The staff were attentive and kind, and took care with even the small requests. Our room was clean and well kept, and the beds were comfortable. We also really enjoyed the restaurant, the food was delicious. They arranged excursions smoothly, and were also happy to explain how to do things independently. We had a wonderful stay and would gladly come back.

My partner and I really enjoyed our stay. The room was spacious and had a lovely design, and the food was amazing. It’s close to the beach, and the staff were friendly and accommodating. They can also provide a tour guide. I’d definitely recommend it.

We spent four nights here and loved it. Most nights were quiet, though on one night some other guests got pretty loud. The hotel provides ear plugs, so it wasn’t much of a problem. The employees were attentive without hovering, professional but still friendly. We had dinner at the restaurant every night, trying something different from the menu each time, and all of it was fantastic. The chefs know what they’re doing. After each day, my husband and I liked sitting on the patio with drinks from the restaurant and reading while we took in that incredible view. The laid-back atmosphere felt like being alone in paradise, even though shops, restaurants and bakeries are nearby. It’s also not far from the whale shark experience, Tumalog falls, the monkey park and Sumillion Island. There’s a private entrance to the water too, which is surprisingly hard to find in the area.

We booked the whale shark, Sumilon Island and Tumalog Falls packages during our three nights at GT Seaside Inn. Everything was easy and amazing, thanks to our guide, Send, who made it feel like a fun field trip. The staff were warm and welcoming, like found family, and always seemed to know what we needed. The food was so good that we dropped our plans to try other restaurants and ate there instead. We also had an in-room massage that took away the last of our stress. We came for the whale sharks and ended up loving everything else too. Go for the tours, enjoy the people, and you might be planning another visit before checkout.
