Great hotel for diving
Stayed for four days with friends on a diving holiday. The rooms were comfortable and the hotel is situated right on the beach next to where the public ferry drops you off, can't get more convenient than that! The dive centre was top notch, great guides and good quality equipment. Would definitely stay again.

A very pleasant resort close to Bounty beach.
We stayed in room #17 Super Deluxe. It was clean and comfortable. The aircon worked. The hot & cold shower worked. The fridge worked. It was a 2 minute walk to Bounty Beach. Room #16 is also a super deluxe room but next to the dive centre so it gets noisy. Flat boat to big boat P20 + they charge P20 for luggage. Boat to Malapasqua Island is P100 + again P20 for luggage.

Not bad
Overall was good. Only issue is wifi doesn't reach the room. Fan rooms are also noisy because you need to leave windows open and the dive shop is right outside and starts very early around 4am arranging gear etc.

Whilst Malapascua is primarily a diving and snorkeling resort, and the Little Mermaid Resort provides excellent services in this regard, it is alo a great place to relax and unwind if like me you dont dive or snorkel. Everyone at The Little Mermaid were very friendly and accommodating and its such a small island you can walk around it in comfort and safely. The white sand beaches are wonderfuk to stroll along and are exceptionally picturesque. I highly recommend The Little Mermaid Resort and the island to all.

Very comfortable room but I would consider their wifi no wifi because it doesn't work well. If they get better service they will get better wifi

Super nice
Super friendly and helpful staff. One of the nicest places in the Malapasque, but be aware of the roosters... They tend to start day super early

OK for a short stay
Didn't have a record of my booking when I arrived, took a while to sort out. Fan room was very hot whereas my previous hotel had been fine so I would recommend aircon if you get too hot easily. Good size room, clean but noisy as the bathroom just had a mosquito net over the window space so all the noises from the locals at the back were heard, banging, chickens etc including loud music from 8am. Breakfast was good but the cheese was green mouldy - not a very nice sight when you're eating! I thought for the price, the other hotel I stayed at was much better value.

Nice and relaxing hotel 15 meters to the beach
Very pleasant stay. We were given high quality service and could try scuba diving with a nice team of professionals.

Decent Value Hotel
Good price for a small island. Everything is not that far apart so location is great, no beach view but beach is walking distance in front of property. Food ok but not great. Many other options just down the road. Rooms in decent condition for the price. They felt clean. Neighbors in the back burning trash so was not very comfortable one of the nights, however management responded accordingly and gave us a different room to switch to. Diving available at hotel, however we dove with another outfitter.

The facilities were too terrible.
I think the hotel's facilities were bad. First, the receptionist arranged the room which was re-paint one day ago, the smell was super terrible.Second, the toilet was hard to control, you must emphatically press the button after you use it, otherwise, the lavabo will spring up a lot of sand, that was very inconvenient.Over all, we won't the hotel again.

More private. Not on beach front.
Stayed for 4 night in october 2014. we took the fan room as a couple. It was ok. I ddnt take the scuba course with them but i liked the fact that scuba suits are not rip here and there for the students to use Base from my observation. Ddnt look cool having a ripped scuba on the photos from the famous TSD where we took the course. More on private as they dnt have a beach front but just half a minute away from the front beach.

4/10 Fair

ビーチがすぐのロケーションはグッド。 部屋もシンプルだが、シャワーはお湯もでるのが良かった。 ただ、受付が最悪。チェックインのときから、無愛想で笑顔のひとつもなし。タオル交換に50ペソかかることも聞いていないのに、説明したの一点張り。とにかく、こちらの話を聞かず、まくしたてるようにしゃべる。非常に不快だった。チェックアウト時も現地語で他のスタッフに指示していたが、待たないと行けないのか、去っていいのか、不明なまま。チェックアウト後、Thank youと言ったのに無視。マラパスクワにはまた行きたいが、このホテルは絶対利用しない。

Härligt . Underbar personal dock kunde ägaren kanske kunnat hälsa när vi mötte honom. Prisvärt . Låg precis på stranden så närmare vattnet än så är svårt att bo . Kan tänka oss att bo här igen . Håkan och BRITT MARIE
