Beach Hotels in Central Luzon, Philippines

Tv has western movies but had some corruption to signal top of screen. Hotel generally very clean, were some dead cockroaches in common walkways, but at least they were dead. Room was very clean, shower was good, bed was good. 2 small free bottles water.

Reception staff professional polite and friendly. While waiting for my room to be ready ( I was early) a large group of locals arrived and very demanding, in particular one lady who felt she was entitled and blaming receptionist for booking hic up, nt caring others where waiting. Receptionist handled the situation extremely professionally. Once they left she advised me that my room was ready and I thanked her and congratulating her for dealing with the situation calmly and professionally which she appreciated. Pool is small, with no shade, only a few tables, the bar area being small. A couple of tables near by and area to eat inadequate once again lacking tables. Breakfast was adequate yet basic. This group, previously mentioned, just took over with no consideration for others, in recreational areas Beach was closed to stingers. Location was good however I don't think I stay here again due to limited amenities.

I stayed here for 3 nights with my child and chose a beachfront room. Overall, it was a good experience — easy access to the beach, spacious room, and fast internet. Breakfast is not included, so you have to pay extra. I came by public transportation: you can take a jeepney to the main road and walk in, or take a tricycle from the city for about 250 pesos. The atmosphere was nice, the staff were friendly and helpful, and there was security on-site One downside is that there aren’t many restaurants nearby, so dining options are a bit limited. .

I have stayed previously hereon a few occasions, finding it convenient. It is in a good location close to restaurants and bars money changer. I believe it's good value for money despite limited amenities. Staff are friendly. Direct access to Sparrows Cafe is good where locals & foreigners eat.

Amazing hotel and service no complaints. Have been staying a central every time this was my first time trying ABC and I will Be coming back again.

Our stay is memorable and we enjoyed the view and calmness of the place also the food is great! The service is amazing! The staff are friendly. I highly recommend this resort to anyone who wants to experience one of the best resort in zambales.

The pub part of the offer was outstanding, Magners on tap, real British pub atmosphere, best calamares I had in decades. Nice seats watching out on the bay. Could not be sny better in England. The rooms were rather soso, and I don’t mean the size or rudimentary furniture. There were small ants all over so I kept my suitcase closed. There was a loud fan in the room and a rattling a/c in the bathroom window. The shower fittings were adventurous and the water flow very low. And the rental requirements did not make me feel really welcome, read yourself to make your own opinion. I had a quick dip in the water in the morning and left a day early. In general, I would rather pay 10 bucks more and have a decent shower and a/c and no bugs in my room.

Very comfortable location, very private space, relatively large room, bed and sofa are very comfortable. The waiters are all very enthusiastic, and the most attentive employees are probably the two young men from the restaurant in the outer area! There are also many shortcomings, the bathroom supplies are too old and are in a broken state; the TV is too small and the space is too different from the original room, and the waiter is difficult to find. What frightened me the most was John, the service staff at the front desk. Seeing the different attitudes towards each other and being particularly difficult with Chinese passports, this caused me to bury my head in the dark about this store!

The way I went to Benang by myself, so it was a bit complicated, but it's easy to get to the car. The exterior and facilities are old and old, but it is right next to the sea, so there is a advantage to go out to the beach at any time. When you come to family trips, children go to sand play and have a small pool. Food, water and drinks are not allowed to be brought from outside, so you should use the bar and restaurant in the resort. You have to walk about 100 meters to the 7-Eleven convenience store. Most meals are enjoyable between 300-400PESO and have a cocktail at night and have a good sea view. However, it is good to prepare because there are many bugs and mosquitoes

I recently stayed at Samba Blue Water Resort in Olongapo City, Zambales, and I’d like to share my full experience. From the peaceful beach atmosphere to the accommodating staff, it was a stay that truly stood out — both for its strengths and for a few areas that could be improved. The moment I arrived at Samba Blue, I could tell this wasn’t just another commercial beachfront resort. It had a laid-back, local island vibe that immediately made me feel at ease. The entrance was welcoming, check-in was smooth, and the staff made me feel like a valued guest from the start. I stayed in one of their rooms and it offered a good balance of comfort and nature. The space was clean, the bed was comfortable, and the room had the essentials I needed for a relaxing beach getaway. The sound of the waves in the background and the breeze flowing through the resort made it easy to unwind. If you're someone who enjoys a more ”back-to-basics” island experience, you’ll probably love the rustic charm. The beach area is the real highlight. The shoreline was clean, and there were enough shaded areas and cabanas to relax in. I loved that the resort maintained a peaceful, non-crowded vibe, even though there were several other guests staying at the same time. The pool area and sun deck were well-maintained, and I enjoyed the acoustic night setup they had on the weekend — it was a perfect way to end the day with some live music under the stars. They also offer water activities like jet skiing and banana boat rides, which add excitement if you’re in the mood for adventure.
