3-Sterne-Hotels in Oriental Mindoro

Our stay was truly amazing, made even more special by the excellent accommodation and outstanding service we received throughout our visit. From the very beginning, everything was handled seamlessly, allowing us to relax and fully enjoy the experience. A big part of what made our trip so smooth and stress-free was the incredible assistance from the manager, Ethen. She was very easy to talk to, approachable, and genuinely attentive to our needs. Even before we arrived, she had already taken care of all the important arrangements for us. From organizing our pick-up at the port to ensuring a comfortable transfer to the hotel, everything was perfectly coordinated. What impressed us even more was how she helped arrange all our tours. We didn’t have to worry about planning or logistics at all—every activity was thoughtfully scheduled, making our trip both convenient and enjoyable. Her effort and dedication really made a difference, and it felt like we were in very capable hands the entire time. Shoutout also to their staff Kate for ensuring our boat tickets. The accommodation itself was equally wonderful—clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, providing us with the perfect place to rest after our daily activities. Everything about our stay felt organized, relaxing, and enjoyable. Overall, we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The combination of great accommodation and Ethen’s-the manager exceptional service made our stay unforgettable. We highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a hassle-free and well-organized getaway.

Spotless Zimmer, offensichtlich kürzlich modernisiert - geruchlos, wenn möglich. Bett komfortable Blätter und Handtücher sauber. Beschwerden - kein Kettle in Zimmern, aber in gut ausgestatteter gemeinsamen Küche.. aber niemand will gehen und warmes Wasser für Morgenkaffee. Dann waren wir in Zimmer 301 direkt neben der Küche und einige egoistische Westen beschlossen, in der Küche um Mitternacht eine laute Gespräch zu führen. Anderes als das würde ich zurück gehen wegen seiner Reinigung, aber nicht in Zimmer 301.

The resort is nestled in a quiet harbour within a small village just a short distance from Puerto Galera — you can reach the town in about 10 minutes by tricycle for 50 pesos. The property sits right on the waterfront, with its courtyard opening directly onto the bay. The setting is incredibly serene, cosy and picturesque. The grounds feature plenty of relaxing spots: comfortable chairs, sun loungers and hammocks where you can unwind. We especially loved the chair near the large tree — it was the perfect place to relax! The sea near the resort is a bit murky due to local currents, so not many people swim here. However, this isn’t an issue at all, as you can quickly and affordably reach the stunning beaches of Sabang (I highly recommend La Laguna) by tricycle — or even on foot if you’re up for a walk. During low tide, you can explore the seabed right near the hotel. The resort also has a small swimming pool, and despite other guests staying there, we never had any trouble finding space to take a dip. The rooms are clean and well‑maintained, featuring a small kitchenette, stylish bathrooms and even a bathtub. We stayed on the ground floor, so we occasionally noticed small ants and once spotted a gecko — but they never caused any inconvenience. Please note that the air conditioning is rather weak, so the room might feel a bit stuffy or not quite cool enough at times. There’s both a ceiling fan and a standing fan available, though, and overall the accommodation was comfortable. The on‑site restaurant offers a wide selection of dishes for breakfast and other meals, with prices typical for a resort area. We were very pleased with the food. The staff are attentive, always smiling and eager to help. During our week‑long stay, the resort wasn’t crowded, which made for a truly relaxing experience — you really get what you came for. Occasionally, local guests can be a bit noisy, laughing loudly or singing karaoke, which might disturb your sleep or meditation. However, this is not the resort’s fault, and it’s still relatively quiet compared to other spots around Puerto Galera, such as White Beach. What could be improved: 1) Flip‑flops. It’s odd that a seaside resort doesn’t offer free flip‑flops like most similar places do — they only rent them out here. Even budget hotels usually provide this small convenience. 2) Charge for outside food. Corkage fees are normal, but charging an extra 150 pesos for any outside food is too much. Even though we weren’t charged, the mere existence of such a rule makes the resort look stingy. This rule should be removed. 3) Wi-Fi was dead almost all of the time. Don’t rely on it. Thanks to the Blue Crystal Resort for a nice stay! I highly recommend it.

Sehr gemütliches, kleines, aber komfortables Hotel mit schönem Schwimmbad, sauberen Zimmern und schöner Aussicht (erste Linie auf dem Meer). Obwohl Sie wissen müssen, dass trotz des Titels Sabang Strand Sie hier oder irgendwo umgeben keine Strände finden - nur ein Wasserfront aus Felsen. Wenn Sie den Ort suchen, wo Sie auf dem Sand liegen und dann genießen Schwimmen ist nicht ein Ort für Sie ist ein Ort für Divers, die Boote, die von der Wasserfront abfahren immer. Wenn Sie nicht im Meer schwimmen wollen, dann können Sie dieses Hotel betrachten. Viele Äste und schlechte Soundproofing aber in irgendeiner anderen Aspekte ist es das Geld wert!

This is a very cute place to stay! The staff was very friendly, the room was comfortable, and the stay overall was enjoyable. The room was generally clean, with some details overlooked (like previous guest's receipt on the floor and a few other papers around the room, one of the towels was a bit dirty). The hotel only provides a toothbrush and a toothpaste (and shampoo and shower gel in the shower), but I found the lack of a bar of soap disappointing. The location is great, the hotel is right at the beach, and easily accessible. The hotel cafe is adorable, serves good food, and the staff is friendly and polite. As for the provided breakfast, I could choose from the breakfast menu at the cafe, and coffee was served directly. Overall, I would definitely recommend this adorable hotel to anyone visiting, it's charming and worth staying in!

Das Hotel ist sehr interessant als Mittelalters Schloss gebaut. Es gibt einen Schwimmbad auf dem Gebiet, manchmal live Musik wird um ihn am Abend gespielt. In den Zimmern Möbel aus natürlichem Baum, chic Betten mit Baldachin. Das Restaurant ist leckeres Essen und ein 20% Rabatt für Hotelgäste. Das Hotel ist nicht am Strand, sondern in der Nähe, in einer bequemen Lage im Zentrum. Von den Mängeln: Es war nicht immer heißes Wasser, das Zimmer sicher funktionierte nicht. Einige Zimmer sind hoch, die Treppe auf ihnen zu klettern ist schwer, es gibt keinen Aufzug. Für ihr Geld ist eine sehr gute Option.

Ich genossen meine Unterkunft hier. Großer Blick, schöne Lage.

This is my third time staying at this hotel. And sadly, it just doesn’t get any better. And they even did a remodel since I was here last. Sad, old hotel that is unfortunately the best that Calapan has to offer. The rooms are clean, the pool is good and the staff very nice, but that’s about all I can say to the positive. No hot water, little in the way of amenities and the breakfast included with the room is just pathetic. All of this and reasonably expensive by Phillipines standards. I had just come from the Lalaguna Villas in Puerto Galera, so the contrasts were extreme. I am currently at the Manila Hotel, so again the contrasts are extreme. There are few options for a hotel in Calapan, they host many weddings and local events. But seriously, someone should open a decent hotel in a capital city of 140,000.

Perfekte Ort zum Aufenthalt!

I wanted to express my gratitude for the outstanding experience during our recent visit. Ate Girly, the receptionist, was incredibly accommodating and kind, ensuring that all our needs were met. Her brother, who offers land tours, also impressed us with his great and pleasing personality, along with offering competitive prices. Ate Girly went above and beyond by answering all our inquiries and providing valuable suggestions to ensure our tour and stay were worthwhile. Additionally, they assisted us with transportation from the hotel to the port, which was greatly appreciated. Thank you for making our experience memorable.
