What guests think
At Dolce Vita Hotel, travellers consistently praise the friendly, accommodating staff and the tranquil, garden setting, while the location is convenient to Puerto Princesa airport yet tucked down a less appealing lane away from the main road.
Rooms are generally spacious and comfortable with characterful decor, but Wi‑Fi can be unreliable and a few guests reported maintenance issues such as hot water or TVs. Guests appreciate the pleasant pool, on‑site restaurant/bar and handy airport transfers, though the gym is dated and poorly maintained according to several reviews. Food is often praised and reasonably priced, though breakfast consistency and coffee quality vary, and one early breakfast was mishandled. Expect a friendly, good‑value base near the airport with convenient amenities and some minor trade‑offs.

Dolce Vita is a beautiful property with large clean rooms. The pool and restaurant are excellent with good service. Food was very good and the pool was cleaned daily. The location is very close to the airport with SM mall and other restaurants nearby. I gave 4 stars and not 5 only because of 2 negatives. First issue we had was with the wifi not being so reliable in our room. Also the road and surroundings leading to the hotel needs improvement. I would still stay here again b/c the price was so reasonable and hopefully the wifi gets rectified.

The amazing staff stood out the most: they were friendly, polite, respectful, and helpful. However, I have two criticisms that should be addressed: 1) The bathroom showerheads need to be thoroughly cleaned. The limescale build-up was very noticeable. 2) I decided to stay at Dolce Vita because they had a gym. However, upon inspecting the equipment in person, it was found to be rusted, dirty, and in poor condition. I strongly suggest replacing everything and maintaining the equipment regularly.

Not in a very safe feeling neighborhood but the property is super close to the airport and clean. The hotel itself is pretty and felt safe. Has security at night. Offers transportation to and from the airport. I got exactly what I expected for the price. Very nice staff. Didn’t answer the phone very often.

We arrived rather late and the staff were so welcoming and accommodating. When I surveyed the gym area it was obvious that the birds had been perching on the equipment. I informed the staff and they cleaned the equipment off so I could get a good workout.

Looks much better in person than photos on website. Clean rooms and facility, staff is friendly and provided excellent service. Would definitely return again as we enjoyed the casual, authentic feel of the mini resort. The roosters at property next door were loud which we were amused by at first and quickly learned to tune it out later. Excellent breakfast too.

Dolce Vita was a wonderful place to stay and I will definitely stay there on my next visit. The hotel had a European atmosphere and was beautifully maintained. The staff was extremely accommodating, the rooms were very clean and the restaurant served delicious food. Additionally, there was a small swimming pool and it was easy to get around Palawan. I really have no complaints. Gary Hamme

From check-in to check-out it was very smooth. Friendly staff. Their rooms are clean and comfortable. Hot water, plenty of lights, Trouble-free Air conditioning, lots of beds (6 beds enough for 8 persons what we saw in our room) two bathrooms. The place is located just 5 minutes from the AirPort - plenty of eating places just within walking distance. They do have a lovely pool and a small yet comfortable restaurant inside. We booked our Underwater River Tour through them, and the tour operators we friendly and knowledgeable. They arranged our pick and drop to and from the air port. Plenty of transport modes just within a few minutes of walking to the main road. A big grocery store is just half a minute's distance operating 24 hours a day. Recommended for Groups, family and friends to stay while in Puerto Princessa - Palawan.

The team at Dolce Vita are very lovely! As with the rest of our trip, Filipino hospitality is unparalleled. We booked our king room without breakfast but ended up having all of our breakfast meals there anyway. It was very convenient, delicious and affordable. I had a traditional breakfast with tocino and my husband had French toast. Instant coffee and cream — would’ve preferred regular cream but that doesn’t seem to be the norm in the Philippines. Our room was clean and well kept. A few things to highlight — they only provide one pillow for each guest, the safety deposit box is tiny, dated and did not work. You will not be able to store your electronics away. Although the place was built in 2006 (if my understanding is correct) the decor is very dated — if that’s important to you. If you’re situated on the second floor you’ll have to go up a spiral staircase which may be dangerous. I’d note this when booking. The pool was nice to cool off — quite literally as the water was cold. The location was tucked away but the tricycle stand was just at the end of the next street so it was convenient. Overall, great value for the price. I would stay here again and would recommend it.

We stayed in a large room that can sleep up to 8. It was spacious but the hot water did not work and WiFi was non existent. Workers were friendly and helpful except for the person who worked in the breakfast area. We ordered for our breakfast to be ready by 6:30am. We got a call that it was ready at 6:20. We arrived to the breakfast area around 6:45 to find our food uncovered and laying out on the table with no fans to keep the flies/bugs away. The person behind the counter seemed upset because he did not smile nor respond to any of us when we said good morning and apologized for being late. After we started eating, he walked away and we were left alone for 20-25 minutes. The alley way to the hotel was dark and scary. Only plus was that the air conditioner worked great.

The amazing staff stood out the most: they were friendly, polite, respectful, and helpful. However, I have two criticisms that should be addressed: 1) The bathroom showerheads need to be thoroughly cleaned. The limescale build-up was very noticeable. 2) I decided to stay at Dolce Vita because they had a gym. However, upon inspecting the equipment in person, it was found to be rusted, dirty, and in poor condition. I strongly suggest replacing everything and maintaining the equipment regularly.

Airport shuttle very good but unfortunately not available before 0800. Food in restaurant is good and reasonably priced. Breakfast pretty good but varied in quality depending on who was duty cook. Location is quiet and convenient for airport and local trikes can take you into town and the baywalk. The hotel staff were great, the room was clean with impressive spanish decor. our stay was very pleasant. Can't fault this place.

This is a nice place, for couples. It’s quiet and remote. Room was nice, comfy bed, ac worked. They have a restaurant and bar, the staff are helpful and friendly. It’s close to the airport too, so it could be good for a one night stay or if you have some excursion planned. Just depends on what you’re looking for because there isn’t any ‘nightlife’ or things to do outside the property. The only negative thing is they offer a shuttle from the airport, but it’s impossible to get in touch with them to book it. I did manage to get it eventually But it took me, searching their website for ANY contact info, I found a marketing manager to forward my email. I tried to message them, email, call, no answers or confirmations. As I said, I did get the shuttle, thanks to Luz the marketing manager but maybe something to work on, should be able to contact the front desk.

Not in a very safe feeling neighborhood but the property is super close to the airport and clean. The hotel itself is pretty and felt safe. Has security at night. Offers transportation to and from the airport. I got exactly what I expected for the price. Very nice staff. Didn’t answer the phone very often.

This is a very cool place. Every room has a courtyard entrance and the yard is excellent and well kept. It's a 100 meters from the road so there's no vehicle noise. Staff is attentive and very friendly. Breakfast is fantastic. Thsi is truly and oasis in Princesa

Location
Very convenient for the airport and easy tricycle access to town, while the property itself feels quiet and tucked away. Some dislike the dark or unappealing approach and a few commented on the surrounding area feeling less inviting.

Dolce Vita is a beautiful property with large clean rooms. The pool and restaurant are excellent with good service. Food was very good and the pool was cleaned daily. The location is very close to the airport with SM mall and other restaurants nearby. I gave 4 stars and not 5 only because of 2 negatives. First issue we had was with the wifi not being so reliable in our room. Also the road and surroundings leading to the hotel needs improvement. I would still stay here again b/c the price was so reasonable and hopefully the wifi gets rectified.

Airport shuttle very good but unfortunately not available before 0800. Food in restaurant is good and reasonably priced. Breakfast pretty good but varied in quality depending on who was duty cook. Location is quiet and convenient for airport and local trikes can take you into town and the baywalk. The hotel staff were great, the room was clean with impressive spanish decor. our stay was very pleasant. Can't fault this place.

This is a nice place, for couples. It’s quiet and remote. Room was nice, comfy bed, ac worked. They have a restaurant and bar, the staff are helpful and friendly. It’s close to the airport too, so it could be good for a one night stay or if you have some excursion planned. Just depends on what you’re looking for because there isn’t any ‘nightlife’ or things to do outside the property. The only negative thing is they offer a shuttle from the airport, but it’s impossible to get in touch with them to book it. I did manage to get it eventually But it took me, searching their website for ANY contact info, I found a marketing manager to forward my email. I tried to message them, email, call, no answers or confirmations. As I said, I did get the shuttle, thanks to Luz the marketing manager but maybe something to work on, should be able to contact the front desk.

Looks much better in person than photos on website. Clean rooms and facility, staff is friendly and provided excellent service. Would definitely return again as we enjoyed the casual, authentic feel of the mini resort. The roosters at property next door were loud which we were amused by at first and quickly learned to tune it out later. Excellent breakfast too.

Had a good time! Only complaints are the walk ways were pretty small in the rooms as-well as the wifi not being usable most of the time in the rooms. Outside of that the property was great and staff were very nice! :) Oh right and you’re next to a hostel so it’s quite loud at night till 11PM then it’ll be quiet
