    great view
    chill atmosphere
    low water pressure

    Perfect little escape!

    We loved chilling by the pool with a drink from the bar! The staff were super friendly, making us feel right at home. We even took out a kayak and explored the area a bit. Just wish there was better water pressure in the shower. The food at the restaurant was pretty good too, especially the packed lunches for our day trips.

    What makes it worth it – and what doesn’t

    The beautiful pool and breathtaking sunsets, along with exceptional staff service, created a tranquil escape. The resort's isolation offers unparalleled serenity, even with Coron town just a short boat ride away.

    Clarification on room amenities is critical. we assumed air conditioning was standard. A few maintenance issues diminished the experience slightly, from basic cold showers to the absence of mosquito nets.

    delicious local cakes
    spacious rooms
    power outage annoyance
    dog poop issue

    The local cakes at breakfast were an absolute delight, and the secluded island gives you a perfect vibe to chill. Plus, the spacious rooms offer a cozy hideaway away from the hustle of town.

    While no sandy beaches here, and power outages can be a nuisance, the beauty of the island still shines, even if dodging the occasional pup’s droppings adds a bit of adventure to your strolls.

    stunning view
    clean rooms
    meal wait
    remote location

    The stunning view was the highlight! 🌅 Clean rooms & helpful staff, but beware, meals can take almost an hour if not pre-ordered. Definitely a remote getaway worth returning to!

    Needs improvement
    5.0

    The native island cottages offer a cozy stay, and the free boat service to town is a convenient perk. They have kayaks available for rent, letting you explore the surroundings at your leisure.

    The rooms could use some attention. I noticed a lack of proper closure on several doors, and the insect situation was a bit messy. Expect the food prices to be inflated considering the portions served, and the pool definitely needs some re-tiling. The location requires a tedious trek through the forest or a boat ride, so you might want to plan your trips accordingly. coming back at night over an unlit bamboo bridge isn't ideal. Plus, the shower pressure leaves much to be desired.

    gorgeous views
    exceptional staff
    small pool
    remote location
    limited dining options

    The beachfront sunset villas provide breathtaking views, stepping right onto the soft sand. The staff are exceptional, making sure every need is met, while the restaurant's offerings, including delicious bagels, are delightful throughout the day. The location is remote yet breathtaking, with options for snorkeling and island hopping, though the proximity to town presents a more isolated feel than expected. The pool, while nice, could be larger for those seeking more swimming space.

    clean room
    great pool
    free kayak
    lack of beach
    limited water activities

    Discovery Island Resort was an incredible getaway! The rooms were clean and tidy, offering a spacious retreat with a wonderful view. The swimming pool was perfect for a late-night dip, and the free boat service to Coron town made exploring super easy. Plus, I loved the option to use kayaks at no extra charge!

    The lack of beach wasn't ideal.
