Thank you Jessery Gocotano for making our stay a pleasant one, though it was short however you made it memorable for us.  Thank you for your hospitality, service and smile. The room is clean and they have a nice garden. Thank you Love's Beach &Dive Resort.

Happy with our stay at Love's Beach & Dive Resort, Staffs are welcoming and friendly, clean rooms and with a nice view. Good bre

Wandered in for a drink and to watch the sunset. Staff were playing on phones and service was poor to say the least.
The drink soft drink was flat and no cocktails.
The staff were simply rude and when we asked for a fresh can they made us pay for the flat one.

Worst experience. We had wonderful service and meals else where on our trip.
We left our drinks paid and wouldn’t recommend.

Worst stop off ever! There’s plenty of choice for a nice sunset drink.

Booked a “garden view” room at this resort during the Holy Week and our first impression was how cozy the atmosphere was. The scenery was also great because the resort is being surrounded by trees, and the dining area (restaurant) overlooked the beach. The resort also had an easy & exclusive access to the beach through the side of the restaurant entrance for those who wants to head for a quick swim at the beach. Rooms were also spacious and the bathroom had a hot & cold shower (though please note, pillows were very flat and blankets were as thin as the bedsheets they used. Bath towels don’t smell fresh - they had stains to it). 

However, the resort was not transparent with their room rates. Though you are paying this amount for your room, there are plenty of add-on’s that they do not inform you about prior to your booking/check-in at the resort. Had to pay additional pesos for pillows and a water thermal due to their lack of information (they do not have a mini fridge nor a kettle at the room we stayed). Though we don’t mind paying if it’s reasonable, but we found it very ridiculous to pay this kind of amount when these should have been provided for free by the resort without additional charges (this is coming from us who are well-travelled people).

Besides the transparency rate issue, the resort doesn’t accept credit card payments, they only accept cash. They do not issue you an official receipt as well, just a handwritten break-down of your total expenses at the resort. All customers should be entitled to an official receipt for transparency purposes. 

During our stay in the resort, we also noticed that there was a difference in hospitality towards foreign tourist and Asian/local tourists. Their staff and manager paid more attention and were more hospitable to foreigners - attending to their needs and engaging more with them. However, when it came to Asian/local tourists like us, they lack attention and hospitality. They mistakenly took our breakfast orders, though we specifically mentioned what we wanted to have. We felt very isolated and indifferent, making our overall experience at the resort not as pleasant as we hoped it would be.  

Though we had a great time in Moalboal, we will never book with this resort ever again after what had happened to us.

Great scenery & atmosphere, but no transparency in rates & poor customer service.

Customer service is excellent!!!
Rooms are okay, do not expect too much- it is small but clean. 
You can bring your food and they even offer to cook if you want fresh meat/fish from the market.
Pool is clean and is from 4 to 8ft deep.
Magnificent view of Moalboal.

Small Resort with Very Good Customer Service

This save my family's day yesterday. It is upsetting and disappointing to be transferred from one accommodation ( with poor service experience) to another. Albeit,  they saved my family's distress yesterday.

I never regret my last minute booking at Love's Beach and Dive Resort. They have the friendliest and most hospitable staff. The resort is relaxing with the beach just in front. They accommodate my family which composes of my 2 toddlers and my 2 senior citizen parents with their great customer service. They have great food and the resort is child and family friendly. Highly recommened and will never hesitate to book again. 💯🥰

Accommodating Friendly Staff, great amenities,child friendly, great food, amazing customer service

Really good team with brand new equipment super reasonable price and good the boat is not too big so it’s never going to be overcrowded it was just me and the dive instructor jess (my fiance doesn’t dive) but she was able to snorkel on the boat with us! Highly recommend

Really awesome dive shop and boat

I was pleasantly surprised. The staff was super friendly. A nice quiet relaxing atmosphere. Breakfast is included. Can eat in their restaurant or there are additional restaurant choices within walking difference. No safe in the room, but there is a bolted down lock box. A great place to stay on a scuba vacation. Simple charming and relaxing atmosphere run by friendly staff. I would recommend Love’s and I would stay here again, next time I visit Moalboal. 


Charming and Relaxing 

On the waterfront with good furniture and nice lay-out. Pretty landscaping, parking on site at least for twowheelers.
Food is alright but average menu, no brewed coffee and limited breakfast items for breakfast included. No complimentary drinking water, but sari-sari store is 30 meters away.

nice place with clean rooms and reasonable food

Over the years I have stayed at loves at least 4 times for approx. 12 to 14 nights in total.
The location is good and accommodation has always been acceptable. ( I am not so picky and understand this is the Philippines)

This year I visited and ate in the restaurant. Prices were high compared to everywhere else. O.K. They have a nice location.

I crossed the property to access the beach as beach access is limited. I was kind of accosted by an employee there telling me I can’t use that beach because it is “Private”
She was not nice about it at all.
The fact of the matter is is Love’s does not own the beach. It belongs to all Philippine citizens. 
DENR, (Department of Energy and Natural Resources” regulations specifically prohibit “private ownership” of beaches with-in at least 6 meters of the mean tide line. It may be more.
A lot of their facility is built over the water and much of it is with in the protected zone that is not allowed to be built on.
It is bad for the environment and violates explicit DENR regulations.

Be aware if you stay there you are helping to destroy the environment and promote elitism and the taking of natural resources away from the people and privatizing the natural resources that belong to the people of the Philippines.

You guys have a lot of guts to declare that this is your private beach.
Yes I crossed their private land. But don’t tell me you own the beach.
I ate in their restaurant the day before and as stated I have stayed there often.

I encourage anyone who cares about these issues to boycott Love’s.
Maybe a visit to the local DENR office would be helpful.

They don’t own the beach

Love’s Beach and Dive Resort is located a couple of hundred metres from Noise Central. The rooms here are small, but nice. And the staff are excellent. Although you’ll need water shoes - lots of jagged rocks - to get out to the reef, about a hundred metres from the shoreline, it’s well worth a daily early morning swim.
