Misibis Bay Resort

We’ve been coming to this resort since I was a kid so we know what to expect and what the resort offers. Over the past few years, the resort has been making changes to their facilities, making these visits more exciting.
|The rooms are newly refreshed. Beds are still comfortable and soft. Most rooms have bath tubs. Resort branded amenities are on offer, and we like the lemongrass scent.||We order food ala-carte, and everything we had was really good. I personally keep coming back for their Crispy Bicol Express and Tilmok, but we found ourselves absolutely thrilled when we asked the chef to cook up something exciting (we keep raving about the Singaporean Chili Crab) with some seafood we bought along the way. Breakfast was a bit limited, but good too.||The newly built recreations center offers exciting new amenities for guests - jetskis, kayaks, and paddle boards if that’s your thing. You can also dive at the resort’s house reef - honestly some of the best conserved in the Albay Gulf area.

While the main beach (close to the resort amenities and villas) is rocky, they now allow access to the area they call the Marina, which is a short stretch of beach with much better sand and better views of the open Pacific Ocean at the western side of the resort. This is also where they do their fish feeding activity. We also booked treatments in their spa, which we loved.||Best of all, their staff were some of the nicest we’ve dealt with. With the service we’ve received, they made our stays here absolutely wonderful.||Will definitely come back.

Top rate accommodations. We had a villa suite and it was complete with every amenity to ensure comfort and luxury. The bathroom was very spacious with Roman tub, shower room and toilet plus a large vanity area with his and hers sinks. Nice dining area which already had a table setting for two. King sized bed with a love seat at the foot of the bed and a sofa by the window. Their television system was updated and allowed us the enjoy our Netflix at night. The grounds were well manicured and the pools were beautiful - an infinity pool and a another pool that run through the villas. The service we got from the staff was warm and outstanding. We were pampered by the staff. Meals at the restaurant was delicious. The waiters were very attentive but one waiter Jayson Valdevieso stood out amongst the rest - he made our dinners artistic with his table arrangements and went the extra mile in service. He would recommend delicious authentic Bicolano cuisine and these never failed to delight us. When Jayson learned that I loved ikebana, he created ikebana centerpiece specially for our table from foliage materials that he got from the resort gardens. Misibis Bay Resort is a destination that will not disappoint.

Amazing hotel here in Bicol! To be honest, it lived up to the hype. Did not really expect that this hotel was on a level of its own. Truly a place that must be visited maybe at least once in your life. The food is great. They will make sure you will enjoy Bicolano cuisine. The rooms are well maintained. There is no funny smell of rooms that reek of cigarette and liquor which you usually experience in hotels in the Philippines which foreigners use. It definitely did not disappoint. The staff are very professional. My kids enjoyed the indoor playground. See you again Misibis!

Well-maintained place, great service and very relaxing. I’m giving it four stars only though because it’s hard to reach from Manila. We drive for 13 hours and the drive in Cagraray Island was a challenge. Not for the beginner driver. You can take the plane though, and arrange with the resort for pickup from the airport.

"A beautiful place, far from the city, with well-maintained cabins and a stunning view of the sea. There's also a bar near the water activity area. Kids will definitely enjoy the numerous water activities available. The food in this resort is delicious, featuring local dishes and authentic Bicolano cuisine that you will truly appreciate. The sunset in the afternoon is breathtaking. Highly recommended for honeymooners, as well as for family gatherings or school reunions. You'll surely have a great time!"

I left my heart in Misibis <3. No wonder why everyone if given the chance would love to visit this luxury resort and hotel in the heart of Albay. 10/10 in terms of communication, whenever I inquire thru their social media page, facebook, they respond swiftly, the manager, Roger, took time to update me thru DMs, 10/10 in terms of customer service, very friendly and the smiles in their faces when they are serving us meals keeps me wanting to go back, way to go to Buen Llanza, super friendly and accommodating, Haysss I'm having a crush on this guy, seriously <3. The food is 10/10, whatelse to say, "MASIRAMON" in bicol means very scrumptious. The ambiance and all, very relaxing, you have a beach and wide pools to choose from and enjoy. Perfect place if you want some peace and relaxation. I LOVE YOUR COMPANY SO MUCH, THE PROMOTION IS VERY COMMON-PEOPLE FRIENDLY. Keep it up guys!!! To more memories with your resort. BABALIK-BALIKAN KO TALAGA KAYO SINCE 2020.

Went to misibis resort as we were driving through the peninsula and wanted to have lunch. We were charged a 988P entrance fee. The food.peice.was ok and food was tasty. The waiter was really good and friendly. The hotel is grand and the place is nice. But they charge you a 500P deposit for towels which will be returned to you in 30.days as per their reception.

Day Tour Package... it includes lunch... we also ordered some drinks and food... The place was relaxing... Since we visir the place off peak season its not that crowded... Not Bad for a day tour trip. All in All Nice Place.

Don't let the Filipino hype about this place fool you. The locals seem to think this place is 5 star...no absolutely not..Just because it's overpriced and most people in PI can't afford it doesn't make it great. The property is not kept up well, seen better days maybe. In the lobby they have Louie Vuitton Boxes and other luxury names used to decorate behind the front desk..if you're gonna go there and claim to be as elegant as the labels you're obsessed with you better bring your "A" game in quality...but you didn't. The good: Great views on the way there, so green. Great views from the beach and the resort looks cute from afar. Cute slippers and robe available in my room. and awesome massage therapist! she was great! The bad: Very basic very average very run down. we had garden views double occupancy, 2 rooms. Cute little pool next to us, but the constant waterfall in the pool could get little loud. The room was poorly lit, no safe available. Large window sofa was stained and so was the small bench i placed my carry on luggage. The bathroom..great division of toilet and shower but for goodness sake CLEAN the glass dividers!! our mirrors were not clean either. Our toilet seat kept sliding back and forth and the door for toilet would not shut. When i left the room for breakfast i requested my room be cleaned..I came back to a made bed but they didn't throw away the left over food from room service the night before. The surrounding landscape grounds are nice in some areas but not all over..the poor Koi are living in green cloudy algae water by the gym. oh the gym! rusty old workout equipment and a bent benching bar. the beach area was cute, but i rented a paddle board and it has seem better days the plastic or paint was chipping like crazy and the rubber falling apart it was a sad paddle-board. We played ping pong and that table was broken and just at its last leg. Staff for the most part was great and friendly. And dining..breakfast, lunch and dinner....sub-par..terrible and most of the stuff we wanted to try was not available! .....So buyer beware if you want luxury...it is not.

Initial impressions with this resort was horrendous due to unpleasant email correspondence prior to booking. Questions in my writing were not addressed properly and led to more confusion. Every attempt at further clarifying my questions were met with copied and pasted answers, rather than actual answers. The resort itself is beautiful. Our room, the Pacific View, was immaculate. Large bed, modern bath, wonderful view, and very comfortable. They provided bathrobes, slippers (albeit of the wrong size and were not usable), and toiletries. There is a restaurant and bar available on site and they served good food but service was lacking. Refer to my review of the Spice Market for details. They have a spa that provides good massages and various water activities that all cost extra if you don't book the package. Service here was lackluster. Staff barely acknowledged me and were quite unprofessional. My experience would have been much better if the staff was more attentive and personable. Payments for all the food and amenities you utilize is made at checkout, so be sure to keep track of your expenditures accordingly. Upon checkout, we found out that you're unable to do so until the person who initially checked you in is there. This policy did not make any sense and delayed us since we had to wait for the same staff who assisted us in the first day to get to work. This policy needs to be revisited since it's so inconvenient. Overall, a great location for a resort but the staff needs further training to make the whole experience better. From start to finish, Misibis Bay Resort failed to impress. UPDATE: The resort made a mistake with our bill at the end. Rather than emailing us, the staff member responsible for our check out messaged us on Facebook. Extremely unprofessional and worthy of my first 1-star review.

Beautiful resort, white sand beach, everything clean and healthy, excellent food, my family was well taken cared of, safe and spacious, I highly recommend your place.

I'll start on a positive note. This place is full of gorgeous views, Scenic walks, a variety of activities, and some great customer service. We stayed in a second floor seaside villa with an absolutely stunning view of the bay and ocean. The room was spotless and clean with no odors. It offered all of the best modern amenities. The resort is well laid out and nothings too far of a walk to get to. It has a game room for kids, 3 different pools a kitty pool an adult pool and lazy river type. They offer all sorts of activities from wake-boarding, wind-surfing, jet-ski's, sailing on a mini catamaran, Trips to some falls and some ATV adventures. The customer service here is some of the best service I've had in most hotels super polite very professional and They take their job very seriously. Onto why I have only given this place two Stars. Firstly the deposit upon arrival. I paid in full $800+ for the entirety of my stay. They charged and held an incidental deposit of $540 or 3000php per night (9nights). Though a wide variety Of activities are offered most of which you can only pay in groups of 6+ people. Meaning if you're there with just your significant other, if you want to do any activities you'll have to pay for six people to go Or walk around the hotel asking other guests if they would like to go so they can split the cost as the hotel will not organize for other individuals for the activity. My third ding will go to the food, while they have a wonderful menu full of options and variety, while everything comes out looking like an artist or a true chef plated it, when it came to flavor, it was completely lacking even in some of the most simple dishes where it's nearly impossible to screwup. I returned most of the dishes back to the kitchen as it was like chewing on Tree-bark. I returned a salmon because they served it to me still raw. There's not a single item on the menu that I would recommend to anyone. In conclusion this place felt more like a trap as it is a beautiful place to be at, full of friendly customer service. It almost felt as though I was stranded on a island as I couldn't leave without paying a ridiculous fee so I waited my time chewing on tree bark food that seems to be prepped by a artist but a complete amateur chef With little to no true culinary skills and asking other guests awkward like if they wanted to share the cost of an adventure that I thought I had paid in full for.

It's a Beautiful place but the food is not good and the amenities are very substandard.
