Discovery Samal

非常感謝，就是餐廳可選擇的飲食少點，希望可以再添加適合寶貝，和長者家可以吃的食物謝謝

一般吧，住的房間不在海邊，在後麪的房間，電瓶車有點不方便，門口還在修修補補

The hotel is just so-so, the amount of money you spend is not worth it. My family had a long wait in check-in which is a minus! Better spend this amount of money at Okada hotel.

I would not recommend this hotel at all. The woman at the port was rude and dismissive, saying, “The boat is leaving” while I was simply having a conversation with someone. She even made a face as though I’d done something wrong. Now, let’s talk about the swimming pool. Typically, you’d expect the entrance to a pool to be either a ladder or a proper set of stairs. At Discovery Samal, they opted for stairs, but the first step isn’t a step at all—it’s a downward-slanted, submerged tile. The reflection of the sky and sun makes it blend in with the water, so when you step on it, expecting a stair, it’s incredibly slippery. I lost my balance completely and fell hard, injuring my shoulder and other parts of my body. To make matters worse, the only handrail is partially blocked by artificial grass and a warning sign—an ironic choice that defeats the purpose of having a safety feature there. When I reported the safety issue to the staff, they couldn’t have cared less. Their response? Blaming me for slipping on a nearly invisible hazard. Service by the pool was equally disappointing. I waited on a lounge chair for someone to take my order, but no staff were in sight. I had to go inside the restaurant to track someone down and practically beg for service. The building itself already feels run-down despite opening in 2023. At night, the lighting is inadequate. I nearly tripped on the stone stairs in the garden because the floor lights are spaced five meters apart, leaving the stairs poorly illuminated. The property is cluttered with unnecessary stairs and yellow-and-black hazard tape everywhere, giving the impression of a construction zone rather than a luxury hotel. Overall, this hotel is a nightmare. If you value your well-being, avoid Discovery Samal at all costs. The staff are unfriendly, unprofessional, and the construction is subpar. I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone.

Samal Island is just a few minutes boat ride from Davao City. Discovery has its own charter speed boat to the property. Upon arrival we were escorted to the main lobby. Main lobby u will see the beach front ( white sand but not that fine). There is also the restaurant Haribsr and Morning Catch. We were then escoorted to our bedroom using golf carts . The bedroom is has the view pf the olympic size pool which has a view of Davao CITY. The property also has a floating chapel, convention center, villas with designated pool. Bedroom is big, with own terrace. Overall the resort is very nice. Only a year from opening, the staffs are very nice accommodating and well trained. Special mention to one if the staffs who took care of is is Sir Ching. He went the extra mile to find us a room with king size bed facing the pool. Thank you!

環境還不錯，上島都有專門的車和船接送，就是度假村整體比較小，餐廳和玩的地方都不多，這個價格有些偏貴了，性價比比較低，不過菲律賓整體的酒店性價比都要比其他東南亞國家低。
