I stayed for 3 nights at Buko resort, in one of the standard rooms. Me and my wife chose this resort based on traveller images, style of the hotel and location. This resort is located close to Lio airport (Air-swift goes direct) and a short tricycle ride away from the local town/from other beaches. Getting there was easy and was something the hotel was able to easily arrange for us, in the form of a pre-booked minivan (tricycle option available). Despite being located alongside other hotels, you really don't get the sense it's crowded. Sitting in your room, by the pool or in the restaurant, you don't know how close other hotels are. Its very peaceful and quiet! The room itself was one of their standard rooms, but the pictures don't do it justice. They're beautiful, 'native style', rooms, built of bamboo. They're clean, comfy and very spacious. The outside shower/bathroom is really lovely too. Rooms also come with (worth noting) mosquito nets, a katol (mosquito coil) outside and plug-in mosquito deterrents in the room, so they've taken a lot of care to keep mosquito's at bay. Food in the restaurant is outstanding. I've eaten a lot of filipino food (home-made and from restaurants) and can honestly say the dishes we had here were the best we've eaten. Lumpia, Leche Flan, Bicol Express, Pancit, all were amazing! Burger was probably the best I've had too. Looking at the service provided, we cannot fault the hotel on anything. Staff were incredibly helpful and tentative. Everywhere was clean. Given the small capacity of the hotel, the friendly staff knew which room you were in so never had to ask. We charged everything to the room and paid on checkout and this was no problem at all. I could keep writing more but won't. I will end this saying we will be returning and have recommended this hotel to everyone we know.
