    Rooms were dated with bugs

    Rooms and service very average. What saves this from a lower rating is the excellent food and reasonably priced food. Sugar Beach is hard to get to and nothing special.

    The cleaning around the lounge chair area could be improved. New cushions would be nice.

    Located right at a beautiful beach. Very tasty food, friendly and helpful staff. I would definitely choose this place again.

    The bathroom needs maintenance. We had to pay a parking fee and there's no free Wifi. But they have Peso Wifi Vendo. I think, I paid 20pesos for 5 hours.

    The staff are very helpful and attentive. There's a faucet to wash sand off your feet upon entry to your room. The room is big and has a porch with a huge table. The Beach is amazing and stone free.

    The resto area is gloomy and the tables need replacing. But the food is good. Plenty of other restos in adjacent resorts.

    Great location, excellent food, comfortable room. Its easy to get there these days, no boat ride needed, just drive to parking area and begin your relaxation. The big sandy beach with no rocky bottom is safe and excellent for swimming for the whole family.

    Staff and owner were very friendly, accommodating and indeed hospitable. Since we decided on a very short notice to upgrade our room, the owner was very generous to give us a reasonable price. True to their words, their guest’s health is also their concern. Place is great for relaxation and quiet at night hence we got our needful rest before the year ended. Truly, Big Bamboo has a big heart for its guests!

    we went for island hopping and we were too far from where we went.

    We had a great time! Owner was friendly as well as the staffs. Our requests were granted. We came at a good time coz there was no crowd at all, almost private for us. Low season at that time (went last May)!

    Good basic no-frills accommodation on a beautiful shady beach.

    Outdoor beach furniture looking a old and tired, with no new beach chairs for example. We were a group of ten, but there were only eight beach chairs available. Restaurant was ok, but again the bamboo furniture is dated and needs some upgrading. AC in the room worked ok though it was a bit noisy, but tolerable. Room towels were old and in poor condition. WiFi is very slow, but this is a remote location.

    Great location on a beautiful white sandy beach with calm water for swimming and lots of shade trees. Good food, but service was a little slow at times. Room was comfortable though decorations within the room are looking a little tired. Next to a number of other resorts, all connected with a shady walkway to all the restaurants, which was great. A good place to chill out and relax.

    Dinner service at this place but also at 2-3 other similar restaurants and resorts on this beach was ridiculous. waited once 1 hour before the meal came and no one told me it was going to take an hour…. (orders outside the restaurant were being prepared, all good and well but I was the only restaurant customer who should have been informed about it)… another issue was paying for internet access, via coins in a machine near the bar. it takes a day to learn how to pause the internet access, it’s not told when you purchase it, the pausing doesn’t work anyways so you burn though your time

    where else can you be direct on the beach and share a stretch of 1 km with less than 30-40 people on a weekend? Staff was great and

    I suggest putting up a shower area right before we go back to the resort from the beach to remove the sands in our clothing, we experienced that sands accumulated in our comfort rooms coming from our shorts or rashguards.

    The staff is very accommodating and the resort is clean and organized. It feels like I'm away from civilization. superb.ards.
