Venezia Suites Resort Panglao

Not only did both rooms have no pluming to the shower the main entry door was unable to be secured, it would not close or able to be locked. We abandoned this hotel and received no refund. Do not stay there. Rooms with no working plumbing!! How could holets.com list such a place? Very dissapointed.

The room was clean and the staff went out of the way to help me out, even giving me a ride to pick up food on back of motorcycle. I would stay there again

We reserved a room with a pool view. For reasons unknown the staff was rude from the beginning. On the way to the room my partner commented he was wondering why is she angry, referring to the lady that checked us in. We were given a room with a view of the gravel parking lot. The room had a very strong musty odor. To see even a small corner of the pool we had to step outside the room a few steps. When I showed them my reservation was for a room with pool view the man got his phone and rudely said this is your name you have that room. He was not going to give us the room with a pool view that I reserved on Orbitz. We went to the room to discuss the situation. Between the foul odor, not so nice room, not having our reservation honored and the conduct of the staff , there was no way we would be comfortable staying there. There are too many other affordable nice places with wonderful staff, clean fresh smelling rooms in the area to ever stay at this place. For a few dollars more we stayed at an amazing little resort just a short distance away. I travel a lot and on a budget, I didn’t have high expectations for this place but they failed across the board. Even at the price I paid I was disappointed.

Very happy with my 4-night stay at Venezia Suites Resort. I’d booked a Superior Suite (1 bedroom with refrigerator and pool view): a large room with everything I needed plus a good size ensuite. Bed was big and comfortable and all linen was clean with high standard of housekeeping services provided. Property is managed by a husband-and-wife team who were always friendly and helpful. Breakfast was included in my stay and there are a number of choices available of good quality food. Everything I wanted was within a reasonable walking distance and I usually walked to Alona Beach (20 to 30 minutes) but if you don’t feel like walking trikes are plentiful and the trip each way is not expensive. I arranged my own transfers to and from the ferry terminal. The only possible downsides I would mention: • It’s what I would consider a budget hotel, so you are getting what you are paying for • The room had some type of emergency system with LED lights and these are quite bright, which interfered with my ability to sleep • I don’t think the TV works, but this wasn’t an issue for me, as I wasn’t really interested in watching TV • There is a small international airport on Panglao island and I got woken up every morning around 1am…but this could be an issue regardless of where you are staying • The swimming pool is cleaned every day, but I couldn’t smell any chlorine and the water looked a bit cloudy. I was happy to cool down in it for a few laps, but I kept my head above the water.
