The setting is by the sea, and while it’s a little outside town, staff readily arrange transfers and tours. Some guests noted limited breakfast or menu variety and the absence of an elevator; a few also felt the beach experience was underwhelming. Expect a relaxing, resort-style stay by the sea.

This hotel made my first trip to the Philippines truly memorable. Abby and Deslee provided outstanding hospitality, arranging tours, meals, and shopping during my 3-night stay, which allowed me to enjoy every moment efficiently. The food was excellent, especially dinner, enhanced by live band performances that created a warm atmosphere. Facilities were also impressive—the 24-hour gym, a clean and spacious pool, and fresh coconut juice after swimming were highlights. Overall, the service, dining, and amenities far exceeded my expectations. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a relaxing and enjoyable stay in the Philippines.

Gorgeous, immaculate property and pool in an idyllic setting. But it is the incredibly warm, smiling, welcoming, friendly and attentive staff that especially makes Funny Lion Puerto Princesa stand out. Every single member of their seemingly small army of staff who I interactacted with was kind, genuine and professional. The service and attention to detail at this hotell is unparalleled! Everything, no matter how big or small, from drinks to food is presented in beautiful and perfect fashion. We definitely did not want to leave and will be back again. My congratulations and compliments to GM Mike M. and the entire Funny Lion - PP staff! Thank you for everything!

This was probably the most amazing hotel we've ever stayed at! Service was beyond imagination and everything was very clean, neat, and thoughtfully done. Our flight got in at 7am and they still let us check in, and added a breakfast buffet for us to devour after our tiring journey. The food was perfect, the drinks perfect, and the rooms impeccable. The beds and showers were so comfy too. Also their bakery goods (cookies, brownies, coffees) were the best I've ever had. I looked up the place for El Nido as well, but they were fully booked. I'd give the place 6 stars if I could!

Such an amazing surprise! The whole place has this incredibly restful feel, that quiet luxury you secretly desire, where everything feels effortless yet so thoughtful. The staff are the true STARS here. Their warmth and attentiveness blew us away… they even remembered how we take our coffee and had it waiting at breakfast, and one afternoon by the pool someone came round offering watermelon ice cream! The food was omg amazing! creative local dishes with a fusion twist, beautifully done and the drinks just as good. Free activities like kayaking and archery were such a fun bonus. Overall, we were blown away. A rare place that combines rest, fun, and impeccable service so perfectly. And to top it off, we left with the sweetest surprise… friendship bracelets on our departure! 💖

Staff here went above and beyond to make me feel at home. Could not walk past the staff without a friendly greeting, and a few words food options were good. Pool was clean. Private beach was an easy walk. You can also catch the sunrise in the morning, which was beautiful Room, good size clean and had everything I could want only downside they do not have an ATM on site and it is a little away from town to get to one lots of options to book to do different things. Unfortunately it was raining while I was there so I didn’t get to do much activities , overall five stars I would stay there again hands-down

But it is the incredibly warm, smiling, welcoming, friendly and attentive staff that especially makes Funny Lion Puerto Princesa stand out. Every single member of their seemingly small army of staff who I interactacted with was kind, genuine and professional. The service and attention to detail at this hotell is unparalleled! Everything, no matter how big or small, from drinks to food is presented in beautiful and perfect fashion. We definitely did not want to leave and will be back again.

The food was excellent, especially dinner, enhanced by live band performances that created a warm atmosphere. Facilities were also impressive—the 24-hour gym, a clean and spacious pool, and fresh coconut juice after swimming were highlights. Overall, the service, dining, and amenities far exceeded my expectations. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a relaxing and enjoyable stay in the Philippines.
This hotel made my first trip to the Philippines truly memorable. Abby and Deslee provided outstanding hospitality, arranging tours, meals, and shopping during my 3-night stay, which allowed me to enjoy every moment efficiently.

Staff here went above and beyond to make me feel at home. Could not walk past the staff without a friendly greeting, and a few words food options were good. Pool was clean. Private beach was an easy walk. You can also catch the sunrise in the morning, which was beautiful Room, good size clean and had everything I could want only downside they do not have an ATM on site and it is a little away from town to get to one lots of options to book to do different things. Unfortunately it was raining while I was there so I didn’t get to do much activities , overall five stars I would stay there again hands-down

Close to sea and the staff are friendly. Relatively limited choices of breakfast, better with elevators.

Everything about this hotel was exceptional! The staff was wonderfully kind and helpful and the service was unsurpassed, the pool and the beach were gorgeous, and all the food that we tried was delicious. I love this place and we are planning on coming back next weekend!

Newly opened property, still not at full operation, but I can only imagine how fine a hotel this will be after the grand opening. Little touches of service make this place special. Complimentary airport transfer, welcome drink and towelette, turn down service with local sweets, no charge for late check out. The staff know your name and always greet you with a smile. The food and drinks were excellent quality. They even packed me a to-go breakfast for an early morning tour, and had a beach towel in a branded tote ready to go for me. Wonderful experience in Puerto Princesa!

I think is the best accommodation in Puerto Princesa! They treated us like royals! The resort and the room is very modern and with beautiful design. The location as beachfront is very nice too. The very friendly and polite staff provided everything we asked for. Beautiful bar- restaurant and nice pool too. Definetily recommended!

Personnel très attentionné. Pour l'hôtel, ce n'est que mon avis très perso, fait aimer la couleur grise. A mon goût cela fait très sombre. La plage: quelle plage ? Bon restaurant

Such an amazing surprise! The whole place has this incredibly restful feel, that quiet luxury you secretly desire, where everything feels effortless yet so thoughtful. The staff are the true STARS here. Their warmth and attentiveness blew us away… they even remembered how we take our coffee and had it waiting at breakfast, and one afternoon by the pool someone came round offering watermelon ice cream! The food was omg amazing! creative local dishes with a fusion twist, beautifully done and the drinks just as good. Free activities like kayaking and archery were such a fun bonus. Overall, we were blown away. A rare place that combines rest, fun, and impeccable service so perfectly. And to top it off, we left with the sweetest surprise… friendship bracelets on our departure! 💖

This was probably the most amazing hotel we've ever stayed at! Service was beyond imagination and everything was very clean, neat, and thoughtfully done. Our flight got in at 7am and they still let us check in, and added a breakfast buffet for us to devour after our tiring journey. The food was perfect, the drinks perfect, and the rooms impeccable. The beds and showers were so comfy too. Also their bakery goods (cookies, brownies, coffees) were the best I've ever had. I looked up the place for El Nido as well, but they were fully booked. I'd give the place 6 stars if I could!

Like the location. Food was good, but could need more options; lunch, dinner menu all the same. Rooms very nice and clean. Could use an elevator.
