Discovery Island Resort

Потрясающее райское место. От отель брали экскурсию на озеро Баракай, очень приветливый персонал, разнообразное меню, шикарный бассейн. Провели 2 ночи.

It was a best island and view with great service from Sinag and Fire Fish. Food selections was great at Fire Fish. Sinag staff were friendly but the food serving was slow maybe because we arrived at restaurant and busy. The terrible experience we had was the bed bugs.Our skin is almost wounded because it was so itchy, we end up spending out time outside. We raise our concern to front desk but they just change the blanket and the sheet. So better be careful with the bed bugs it will ruin your vacation. Toilet were clean but staff must orient their guest to the steps elevated at the toilet and it’s slippery. No bath maths at all. So you need to request. They were very generous with the snacks delivered to your room too, complimentary foot wash. Jude service was outstanding from the bar and serve us outside near the beach. Overall we will still come back but we will make sure the Bed is clean up again when we arrive.

The best thing about staying in Discovery Island Resort is that it provides an island-feel, isolated setting from the chaotic urban atmosphere that you have in Coron town which is sadly urbanizing fast and feeling too much touristy already compared 10 years ago , the last time I visited Coron. Here, you can still feel that you really left the city and settled in a more slow life communing with nature and the sea which I believe most people look after when they plan to have their vacation in Coron. The resort doesn't have a Dive Center anymore. The plan to change the business name is on the works. It partners with Neptune Dive Center in town for their guests who wish to experience diving the wrecks of Coron. This place has basic amenities, clean rooms, inviting pool and a fairly wide area to do basic hiking. For me, the most important asset this resort has to offer is the friendly and accomodating staff that took care of me during my entire stay. Shoutout to Rizza, the resort manager, Paul and Ja, the restaurant managers and the boatmen: Noel, Edward, John Rey, Kimson and Tito Nars. Yes, you need to be transported via a banca to go to Lualhati Port in Coron Town and they will fetch you free also from there before 9pm and you can request also to be fetched even late in the evenings as long as you advise the reception desk for a small fee. Overall, I had a relaxing stay in this resort. I am mostly out for the whole day as I did diving and island hopping during my stay here but going back in the evenings to rest and recuperate in the pool was a bliss. The food served in the restaurant also taste good. A perfect setup I could say. This has been a good vacation for me, a great way to start my summer in the Philippines. In case I'll be back again in Coron, I will again choose to stay in this resort.
