Nature's Embrace by the Sea

lush settingtwo large poolsexcellent buffet
My three-night stay included daily swims in their two large pools. I swam half a kilometer with just a few laps instead of many. The hotel upgraded me to a larger room on the third day. The new room had an even better view of the ocean (it was amazing!). I enjoyed swimming and snorkelling right off the beach a couple of times. I easily saw lots of beautiful fish just a couple of meters from the shore. The service at the beach center was great. Evelyn, Julie, Argen, and Stewart provided snorkeling gear and fish food. They pointed me to the best areas to see fish. I saw thousands around the platform. The excellent buffet breakfast offered excellent variety and quality. All the fruit juices were freshly squeezed, and I indulged in the ube ice cream daily. I even got a coffee to go from Jomer? at the ice cream station. Such a sweet treat. I had a great stay. I definitely would return.
I noticed that the gym did not have a full set of free weights, a little disappointing.
Facilities

Location

The hotel beach is just steps from the main building. Snorkeling is available directly off the beach. Transportation to and from the airport is a short, convenient drive. The hotel grounds feature palm trees and gardens.
Service

The staff at the beach center provided snorkeling gear. They also offered guidance on the best spots for viewing marine life. Staff members were generally attentive and helpful throughout the hotel (a true delight!).

i loved the exquisite and varied food at the hotel. it catered to all tastes. the service was attentive and friendly and live performances created a vibrant atmosphere. each dish was beautifully presented.
the indoor play area was only available by paying per hour, a shame. a lot of 5 star hotels provide some form of kids play area at no extra cost. the breakfast was a large noisy affair. i found it pretty meat heavy.
