Solea Palm Resort Mactan

I loved that the pool and the beach are just nearby! So many pools to choose from. I also loved the spa experience!

Our shower in the room was broken

Very disappointed with our stay at Solea Mactan Resort. The resort is very overpriced for the quality of experience they provide. The pools were dirty and had a very strong chlorine smell. The rooms were also dirty, old, and very hot, making it uncomfortable to relax. Even the elevators were extremely hot and not functioning properly most of the time. Overall, the facilities felt poorly maintained and outdated. The only good thing about this resort is the beach area, which was nice. But aside from that, the experience did not match the high price at all. Definitely not worth the money, and unfortunately we were totally unhappy with our stay

Leaving

Staff, the waiting , not getting served for ages, price was high for a building that's falling apart, free airport shuttle I thought. I'm totally never going back & disappointed with the place

Disgusting bathrooms filled with mold

The resort is fantastic for families, especially with kids — there’s so much to do that ours were in absolute heaven. The variety of pools and activities kept them constantly entertained, and it really felt like a place designed for fun and making memories. The views are absolutely spectacular, especially from the rooms, and considering the price point, it offers great value for money. Overall, if your focus is on the kids having the best time, this place absolutely delivers.

While the overall experience was enjoyable, the hotel itself does show signs of being a little tired in certain areas. Some of the finer details — particularly in the rooms and finishes — are noticeable, especially from an adult perspective. It doesn’t necessarily take away from the stay, but it’s something worth noting if you’re expecting a more polished or modern feel throughout. Additionally, some of the facilities were closed during our stay due to maintenance, and from what I’ve since read, this seems to be a fairly common theme — which is a bit disappointing when you’re expecting full access to what’s advertised.

Excellent amenities and good hotel service
