We stayed 2 nights at Sumilon Bluewater...
We stayed 2 nights at Sumilon Bluewater Island Resort from Jan 12th. It is a beautiful and quiet place and very nice for relax. Especially for the beach in front of the lagoon. The whole beach is covered with small corallites with different colors. Our four people spent half day there to relax and kayaking in the lagoon. There are no other people there except us at such a long beach in the whole afternoon.
The service in this resort is also very nice. For our last day in Sumilon, our flight time is 12:00 noon time at Cebu airport. So, we were suggestted to leave the island on 7:00 AM. The resort prepared the breakfast to our room at 5:30 AM with no late. The most impressed thing to us is their inspired resort ferry staffs. It was windy that morning and the wave on the sea was very high. So, the ferry couldn't tie up to the dock on the island. The boatman took 2 small boats to carry us from the beach to the ferry. The boat is very small, we sit on the boat and the boatmen were swimming in the sea to push the small boat to the ferry. We were all affected by their behavior. So, we want to say thanks again here for their warmest heart.

the place is exquisite and breathtaking but there ia a need of improvement of the transportation to and from the island absence of reliable transportation woulf ticked you off from going my niece and her companions got stuck in the middle of the sea because the engine of the boat which took them back to cebu broke it took 2 hours. there was no personnel during the night because we could not open the door to our restroom and we were looking for somebody to fix it there was none so we ended up with no restroom that at the middle of the night i was looking for one.
This resort was fantastic for our honeymoon....
This resort was fantastic for our honeymoon. The rooms are large, clean and with great views of the ocean from the private porch. Staff was great and so was the overall island environment. Snorkling and diving is quite good and the sole beach on the island is all you want. Apart from beach and sea, there is little to do on this tiny island - so this is perfect for a romantic vacation. If you are after more activities and night life this is though not for you. Highly recommended!
We liked the fact that it's not...
We liked the fact that it's not a big resort (only 12 rooms). We loved the privacy it afforded us. It's like having an island all to yourself. The rooms were big and clean although dark, wished the windows would open easily to let it natural light. The staff were pretty friendly. We wished the food and service at the restaurant was better. The food takes a long time to arrive and when it arrived it was cold. The Filipino dishes were good but the other dishes were very disappointing. Breakfast were always good though and there's a lot of choices. You have to ask the servers for water. If the resort wants to attract international travellers they have to improve on these.
We loved the white sand beach. The snorkeling on the west side of the island was wonderful. All in all, we had a great stay. We'll probably stay there again now that we know what to expect.

Perfect, thank you very much. Room, restaurant, bar, staff, location, all great. And especially the effort put in by the staff on New Year's Eve. Thanks again.
This resort is very nice! But you...
This resort is very nice! But you might feel bored staying there since you can't find anything else to do, except some outdoor activities such as swimming, diving, snorkeling, hiking...
There is only one restaurant, so food is quite limited. You have no night activities since no shopping centres and markets around... you are like being trapped inside an island... haha!! There is no TV channels as well...bring your DVDs!! Also there is no telephone in your room and no internet services.. so it is not recommended if you need to keep track on your business stuff.. But this hotel is very clean!! Service is excellent!! Nice scenery as well!! So I think this hotel is most suitable for seniors and honeymooners!

Excellent resort, very peaceful and relaxing. I thought the lunch / dinner menue was poor for choice and should be a little more extensive with perhaps some western type dishes. What there was was was cooked well and presented well. I also had a problem with other guests smoking in the resteraunt and I feel that the eating areas should be non smoking
The place is really nice. There...
The place is really nice. There is not much of food choices due to it being an island but whatever they have tastes really great. The cottages have a very beautiful view of the sea. The service is excellent.

We were very impressed with all services...
We were very impressed with all services and the great food. The bath was the best I have seen, with all the amenites needed for a wonderful stay, which it sure was. The ground were always in their best of condition as were all the pools.
There was always something to do, for the young and older visitors, and the trip in the glass bottom boat was a delight. The crew was very informative as to what we were seeing and not in a hurry to return to shore.
Enjoyed the boat ride to and from island also.
I am planning to move to Cebu in a few months and sure will return to the island and stay longer.
The personal care we received was just the BEST of care by all the service personal. The manager was a delight to meet and took time to tell us all about the island and his future plans for it.
" I Shall Return"
Thank you for the great stay on your Island.
