Nice resort Nice restaurant Nice bar (open until 4am) Big swimming pool Nice snorkeling place front of the resort (they can provide you equipment for free Diving available at the resort Lot of activities as well available at the resort (canyoning/…)

Sa situation, à la fois au calme et très proche de l'agitation de Moalboal, les repas excellents, l'extrême gentillesse et disponibilité du personnel, de fabuleux cours de Yoga avec Sarah et de magnifiques plongées sous-marine avec notre super instructeur Jeff : il nous a sécurisés et nous a fait découvrir de fabuleuses espèces de la faune et la flore sous-marine. Nous reviendrons avec grand plaisir et conseillons absolument cet établissement où nous nous sommes sentis chez nous. Merci à Mickael et à toute son équipe !

This 'resort' is quite a distance from the main area of moalboal. If you are here for diving or snorkeling, you'll probably love this place for the location and access to sea, but aside from those facilities, there's not much here. Pool was cloudy and dogs were swimming in it, rooms are basic and WiFi over our last 2 days was unreliable, with it not working at all in building 1. No tv, old towels. Breakfast not included, but food offering was OK, as were the drinks at bar. If you have no transport and aren't diving, there's nothing to do here. The owner was very amenable, but was out of the country during WiFi issues. No safe in the room, though probably not needed here, but it's nice to have the option of reassurance for storing passports etc. Bathroom door would not shut, door was swollen and needed planing back.

夢幻般的潛水度假村 - 隱藏在美麗的景色中。我們來這裡是因為我們剛剛完成 PADI 認證，並且想做很多潛水（並且聽說了莫阿爾博阿鯨鯊的壞事）。我們非常高興能來到這裡。我們最終和常駐潛水大師 Jeff 一起進行了 8 次潛水。他非常樂於助人、友好，而且知識淵博——他指出了很多如果我們獨自一人的話我們會錯過的事情。有很多很棒的潛水地點，我們就根據他的推薦去。岸潛也很棒，珊瑚也很漂亮。我們看到了很多東西，包括大量的海龜和沙丁魚群。酒店和食物也很棒，還有一個儲備充足的酒吧。我們大部分飯菜都是在酒店吃的，品種還算豐富。附近還有一個很酷的小鎮，叫Panagsama，真的很酷（15-20分鐘的嘟嘟車路程，酒店會安排）。酒店的所有員工都很棒，讓我們的住宿體驗非常愉快，納麗莎尤其如此。我們住在蜜月套房，那裡有一個屋頂甲板和椅子，你可以坐在上面欣賞整個海岸一覽無餘的景色。酒店對電子郵件也非常敏感，邁克爾（酒店老闆）回答了我們所有的問題 - 值得直接聯繫他們並直接預訂。邁克爾也是一個很棒的人，非常有趣！總而言之，這是一次很棒的住宿體驗，絕對會推薦。如果你想潛水，這裡就是地方。有一點，這不一定是問題，手機信號有限，而且 Wi-Fi 速度很慢，所以如果您想稍微工作一下或保持連接，請注意這一點（它仍然可以管理，但不適用於變焦）電話或類似的東西）。如果您想完全斷開連接，這是完美的選擇。

The resort was absolutely fabulous ! Nice and private resort, beautiful set up, incredibly welcoming. The best part was the staff ! Everyone was very kind from the owner, management to the housekeepers. Would highly recommend, we came as a family of 10 and they provided plenty of options for activities. Not to mention the beach and water access were top notch. Thank you so much for the hospitality, Cheers !!!

The Blue Orchid We had the most amazing stay here at the Blue Orchid! Michael and his family are such lovely souls, they go out of their way to make your stay amazing. We got the beach front room. Room was massive, shower pressure was the best we had during our 3 weeks in the Philippines. Food at the restaurant was super tasty, all freshly made, didn't have a bad meal at all 10/10. We did 2 days of Diving with Nathan, Norman and Jeff and they made every dive unforgettable. Very professional and great company, can not say a bad word at all. Thanks also to Rob and Louisa for making our stay memorable and good luck with your future travels. Oh and not to forget the puppies 😍😍😍 they are adorable. This is the place to stay in Moalboal, look no further, we can't wait to return. Thank you so much for an amazing stay.

Came here with my sisters on a short holiday weekend and had an amazing time! The staff were super friendly, helpful and welcoming. We did the Sardine Run/Coral Reef snorkeling adventure and the Whale Shark swim. I cannot recommend them high enough! They were such an awesome experiences that you need to try.

We loved staying here in the honeymoon suite! The staff was very friendly and helpful; it was so easy to book all of our adventure excursions. Make sure you do the canyoneering - it was a highlight of our trip for sure! There is also fantastic snorkeling available right at the house reef. We saw a sea turtle our very first morning at the resort. The food cooked right in the resort was delicious and had plenty of variety from breakfast to dinner. The pork adobo here was possibly our favorite dish we had during our entire Philippines trip. It was also very easy to arrange a trike to go into town for dinner too. We liked Ven’z Kitchen a lot! The resort staff was great about helping us arrange all our transport, including to and from the airport in Cebu City. The only thing we weren’t expecting was that they do not accept credit cards for payment. Every cost at the resort goes on a tab and you pay upon check out. Cash, Paypal, or other wire transfer only. It wasn’t difficult but just be prepared.

We stayed at The Blue Orchid for a week in November 2023. This hotel is remote from Moalboal, which in itself is a 4 hour journey from Cebu city. But the location is very special, and I recommend you stay for a week or more. We started off with a double room, and the kids in a twin, but Michael, the congenial owner, upgraded us to the honeymoon suite which is enormous with its own lounge and balcony. Of course, an upgrade cannot be guaranteed, so I recommend you book this to begin with; it's well worth it. The beds are very comfortable and the staff clean and change everything daily. We ate two meals a day at the restaurant. Both breakfast and dinner were delicious and varied. We only ate local dishes but I noted Western ones were available too. The bar is open until 4 am with a small range of beers and cocktails at (by Western standards) very reasonable prices. The snorkelling at the reef just off the hotel is excellent, lots of turtles and varieties of fish. The resort can take you to the Sardine Run as well which is a 20-minute boat ride. My twin 18-year old daughters completed their PADI open water dive qualification with Nathan, who was an excellent instructor. I dived for the first time in 15 years with Jeff, who was completely understanding of the reasons I hadn't dived in so long and helped me overcome my nerves at diving again. The staff at this resort cannot do enough for you. If you stay in Moalboal, don't look any further than The Blue Orchid. Thanks, Michael, for a great stay.
