The staff here are some of the most friendly and helpful staff during our travels throughout the Philippines. They are genuinely lovely people. They even make you a little pack-up bag for breakfast if you go on an early tour! Speaking of tours, you can pay for tours at reception and both times resulted in us getting private tours for cheaper than the group tours were selling for online and in Alona. The drinks were nice and well priced. There's a really nice, chill vibe with the other guests sitting in the bar/pool area so it feels very calm. They organise very cheap trikes for you to get to the nearby town too!
Was too far to walk to the main area, so reliant on trikes or scooter rental. The rooms and pool are good but nothing amazing.

The pool was amazing, and the staff were very helpful to the point of arranging forgotten property to get to the airport on time! The rooms are clean and comfortable and you can organise all activities when you arrive through the front desk.
10 mins walk to alona, which is the main touristy area or a 2 kin toktok ride.
There are a few roosters around.....

El hotel es bonito, el personal es muy amable. Está cerca de la calle principal, andando son 8 minutos, y a la vez escondido de jaleo
las habitaciones no tienen aislamiento de ruido y se oye sobretodo los gallos a todas horas

The pool was great. The breakfast was very good
Maybe the bathrooms could have been renovated

Breakfast is normal which could be even better with more option as it's not buffet breakfast. Pool is clear and spacious for enjoy.
Rooms are spacious and outside have free space for roam around.

It’s a lovely place with lovey staff. easy to move around with the country side feeling although near Alone center. easy to walk to restaurants and even to the beach. if you want to explore around, the staff always help to get a tik tuk to explore the surrounding beaches and the countryside. totally recommend 😊
the shower had a small problem that was resolved promptly 😊

Nice setting off the main road.
Very friendly and helpful staff.
Pool to cool down.
10-15 minutes walk to Alona Beach if you missed the shuttle, which is only once per hour.

Nice quiet place. Ideal for relaxation.
Short lavatory faucet which is not matched to the big lavatory sink. Small thing to notice.

Nice place, lovely staff.
It can use some minor renovations.

Hourly shuttle to Alona beach was an easy way to circumvent the far location. The hotel has a very nice pool (two pools) and rooms, definitely beyond expectations. The hotel staff were very welcoming and very helpful with advice and accommodating our needs.
Mosquitoes are definitely a big problem in the resort and surrounding areas. The rooms were well maintained, but not always timely restocked, we were missing toilet paper, drinkable water, and a cover sheet on one of the beds. But staff accommodated for this very quickly.

Very well maintained, sizable property with a beautiful pool - out of place, in a good way, near the end of an unpaved, narrow neighborhood street. Rooms were clean and a good size. We enjoyed being a bit of a distance from the main beach (Alona) since it gets a bit hectic. Very easy to relax.
We had a pool-facing room on the ground floor so we had to have the curtains closed at all times since it was very easy for people sitting around the pool to see inside to our bed area. Some kind of window tinting for these rooms would be ideal.
9.0
This is a delightful little resort. It’s quiet and rather intimate. The rooms are great! Lots of PowerPoints with fast and reliable wi fi and HD cable TV. Food is pretty good. My room on the 1st floor had a private stairs and balcony which I really liked. There is a free hourly shuttle to Alona Beach.
There was something actually nothing to do with the resort itself. The road/track leading up to the place is long, narrow, bumpy and unlit. It’s really very bad especially after it’s been raining.

Was in the Philippines for a month. This was the best place I stayed.

Nice, well maintained place with beautiful garden. The staff is very supportive. You need to keep in mind the 10min-walk to the beach, but we liked it aswell as the quiet location.
10.0
The place is clean, the staff are friendly and helpful, and the overall vibe of the place is cozy and comfortable. I liked that the place is quiet — a little away from the town’s various sounds. I want to mention too Green Papaya’s pork sinigang, I really loved it — it’s a different take on the traditional dish.

pool was too, shuttle bus to beach was really efficient, food & staff were lovely also would stay again
4.0
Staff were incredibly nice and professional helping us book tours and make restaurant reservations. The hotel is located close to Alona Beach and the hotel provides a hourly free shuttle to the beach. The room was spotless clean which is a feat considering the hotel didn’t have any water for days. Whatever you are paying your staff double it! They deserve it.
Very basic personal hygiene like taking a shower, flushing the toilet, washing hands or brushing your teeth was a challenge at the Scent of Green Papaya. The hotel didn’t have water for days during our stay. By day four, we decided to book a massage at another hotel so we could take a proper shower!!!
9.0
A very chill and beautiful place to stay with two pools and a lot of good spots to sit down. Happy hour is good value so you can easily spend a whole day at the hotel.
They also have a shuttle to Alona every hour. If it’s quiet you can ask for different times as well probably.
Staff is very friendly and helpful and the rooms are nice.
Our lock to the room was not working well and it was a struggle every time.
