Simply amazing
This hotel is absolutely amazing! We booked at the last minute and ended up booking an extra villa because we were blown away by how beautiful and comfortable they are. The grounds are so lovely, the ocean view is incredible, and we had several delicious meals at Paprika. Above all, the staff was beyond amazing. Everyone was so friendly and went the extra mile to make our stay unforgettable. We wanted to stay longer but unfortunately had to leave!
Kayla, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Highly recommend.
First class in every aspect. If you want seclusion, tranquility, and peace then is the place to go. I opted for a villa with pool and was completely satisfied. There is no beach but they do provide free transport to any that you want to visit. No cons here...probably one of the best hotel/resort experiences I've had.

4/10 Fair

The facility is somewhere between 2 and 3 stars. The service is definitely 1 star. The pricing, however, is fully 5 stars. The property is not worth the prices they charge
Greg E, 7-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We stayed 6 nights in the honeymoon suite at this beautiful resort. This beautiful, comfortable and spacious cottage has a private pool that is very nice, and it is just around the corner from the amazing onsite restaurant Paprika, yet far enough away from the 'community' pool to be quiet. The grounds are large and cottages are spaced quite well. The staff was the absolute highlight of our stay. They were so friendly and caring. From the moment we were picked up at the airport until our eventual drop off for departure, we saw so many kind smiles. We had all our meals at Paprika and every meal was very good. We very highly recommend staying at this property.

8/10 Very good

We loved staying at Donatela resort. It is comparatively remote and not as busy as other resorts in Panglao, it was quite and enjoyable. We traveled with our two toddlers and the kids were always welcomed! The only negative thing about our stay was that one night for dinner we arrived on the later end, the hours at the paprika restaurant said it was open until 9pm, we came around 8:15 because our kids had a late nap from our country side tour. The entire time the wait staff was rushing us to complete the order, rushing us to eat, and rushed us to pay for the bill. When we left the restaurant it was 8:50pm. I know different countries have different customs, but typically as long as you order at last call you are not rushed because you are still within the time frame of the closure. I found it unacceptable for the amount of money we paid to be treated like that. Other than that our stay was enjoyable. I would book again, but not loyal to coming to the resort again due to that one experience.

재방문 의사 500% 청결,친절,아름다운 숙소
1. 수질 필터를 끼고 4박5일 사용했는데 전혀 더러워지지 않음. 2. 서비스 카카오톡으로 소통하는데 답변 빠름. 사사건건 제제하는게 전혀 없고 자유로움. 직원들 모두 매우 친절함. 3. 데스크와 카톡으로 이동시간 소통하면 공짜로 셔틀 이용가능.(시원 깨끗 쾌적함) 추가: 알로나비치에서 툭툭으로 10분거리 (숙소레사 불러준 툭툭 기사와 카톡친구를 맺어서 편하게 불러서 보홀 여행 내내 이용함) 4. 조식 맛있고 식당 뷰가 좋음 (식사 시간 외에도 자유롭게 앉아서 풍경 구경하는 등 자주 애용함) 5. 무조건 무조건 재방문 할 예정

모든게 좋았지만 와이파이가 너무 느려서 투어담당자들과의 소통이 늦어져 낭패를 봤다. 직원들도 모두 친절하고 프라이빗한 빌라공간이어서 휴양여행으로 제격인듯
