Our 4th visit
We have stayed Al Faro 4 times now and always found it to be excellent in every way. The staff are all extremely friendly, welcoming and efficient. The hilltop position is stunning and the pool fabulous. Food is always very good and varied. Being picked up and dropped off by speedboat always makes it special too. Rooms are very comfortable and have stunning views.

Great for a getaway
We spent 3 days first in Al Faro then 3 days in the town and were suprised by the stark contrast between the two. The former can be a little quiet, if you seeking to relax and admire the beautiful views, but can be too boring as you are isolated. The latter is chaotic and dirty but you have more access to services and attractions in the area, bar/ restaurants, bank, boats, hot spring etc.

Lovely setting
Great range of excursions available. Really enjoyed the snorkelling. Views of sunset are unsurpassable. Food cooked well. Friendly and helpful staff. Could do with slightly more communal space around the pool/bar/restaurant if large groups staying, but veranda by bungalow helps make up for that. Very popular location with plenty of people choosing to spend an evening there even if they’re not residents.

Beautiful scenery, friendly staff, few amentities
My husband and I visited Al Faro for one weekend. The island was beautiful and the staff were friendly and accommodating but there were fewer amenities than we expected: WiFi was only turned on from 6 am to 10 pm and available only in the dining area, no air conditioning, no hot water, and no conditioner (shampoo only). When the WiFi was on, we still had trouble connecting. Overall, it was a nice, relaxing weekend but we would have enjoyed it more if we knew what to expect. Also, expect to spend a lot of money once you do arrive at the hotel - you can visit nearby islands during the day but it cost about $40 a trip, exclusive of island fees and meals. There isn't anything walkable around the hotel either so the only food option was at the hotel. It's also useful to know that you can settle your bill with credit card but they add a 3% fee.

Beautiful hotel with stunning views. Room with separate terrace with day beds and hammock was brilliant. Great food and staff. Lovely pool and massage area. Nothing we didn’t like but it would be good to have some flat sun beds around as well as the shaped ones? Would also have been nice if the bar could have stayed open later.

This place is one of the best hotels I have ever stayed in, and I've stayed in many beautiful hotels like London's The Shard and Bali's Ayana Resort. This place is amazing in a non-boujie type of way. It's simple, yet breath taking. The staff is extremely accommodating and the ambiance is so relaxing. There is no wifi in the room, so be prepared to be in the moment and enjoy everything technology-free. The way up to the reception area is a bit of a trek, so be ready for some daily exercise! The staff was kind enough to upgrade us to what they call the 'honeymoon suite' and as soon as I got a glimpse of the view, I had to stop and think 'what did i ever do to deserve this -- to wake up to this everyday for the next few days...' I am so grateful to have experienced this hotel. I definitely plan on coming back. Maraming salamat po, Al Faro Cosmio 💖

Not bad
We had a 3 day stay at Al Faro. Unfortunately the weather wasn’t great and we couldn’t relax by the pool, but we felt that the hotel didn’t really provide any sort of entertainment. A bit boring as the hotel is located on a peninsula from which you have to arrange a boat if y want to go somewhere... at some point during the evening we were rushed to go back to the room (Only just after 8 pm) as there was not other guests in the restaurant and staff was making us feel they are waiting for us... so we felt a bit uncomfortable and decided to have an early night. In regards to rooms... those are mainly bungalows. Not great for people who don’t like insects... as there are holes everywhere and once you put the light on there is a mass of flies mosquitoes and other little creatures.... the only thing that may u feel better is that the bed can be covered (check the picture) and there is a fan inside too so you can actually breathe.. no air con in the room, and no tv... WiFi is also very weak and works only in the lobby.... ohhhh and no hot water! If u dislike cold showers like or me you will also struggle a little. The food in the restaurant is good but quite pricey... we went to many good places in Philippines in which we paid much less, but again I guess it’s because you are only left with that optiin Over all the place needs some technological advancements to be fair.really cool place to relax, in the middle of nowhere really, so perfect if you want to disconnect ;)

Simply amazing place to stay!
Simply amazing place to stay! Well designed from the heart and great attention to service. This is one of those places that makes getting away from it all real. Exceptional rooms and comfort, great views from the hilltop pool and food that was just delicious. The staff went beyond to ensure your comfort levels were met and arranged activities according to needs. Despite no air con, no hot water, poor wifi, this place really ticked all the boxes in terms of high level of comfort and service. I'm so happy I stayed in such a fine place that has a soul.

Highly Recommend!
Great food and views, but soooo many bugs. Ecolodge, so they don't spray anything down. No amenities aside from small pool, a set of steep stairs for exercise & the restaurant. Great massages daily for only PHP 500/person. Happy hour drinks PHP 50. Manager Sharon was great.

Unique hotel in Coron
It's an amazing experience to stay at Al Faro. Stunning view over the water and surrounding islands from very comfortable and private bungalows. The hotel, food and service are outstanding for the price as evidenced by the low availability compared to other more expensive resorts nearby. Would come here again as it surpasses any accommodation we have had in multiple trips to Philippines.

Fantastic relaxing hotel
We had a great stay here, the bungalows have great views and nice reading areas. You mostly eat at al faro as it is quite remote but the food was very enjoyable especially the pizzas which are top class! Overall excellent one small complaint is non residents who come to eat at the restaurant should not be entitled to use the pool for their kids _ a little bit annoying when trying to relax!

No air con but great place to stay with excellent food and very helpful staff. Nothing was too much trouble. Terrific value for money if you can stand the lack of air con. Only downside was the arrival of blow ins from Luke's backpackers nearby who weren't staying there and took over the pool and bar with totally inappropriate behaviour. Run for your room if it occurs again

Heaven in Paradise.
This was the best hotel we could ask for. I got into a motorbike accident and the hotel staff did EVERYTHING they could to take care of me. They went to town and got me gauze/medicine, constantly came down to my room to cater to any needs, one of the staff members, Sharon, even would clean/rewrap my wounds... NO CHARGE. The service was impeccable and the views from the rooms, common area, pool.. (Gosh just about everywhere) was impeccable! Town is a bit far away but the hotel has an extensive selection of food to choose from and every meal was beyond delicious (if that's even possible). They also provided excursions so a trip to town was not necessary. All of this at more than fair pricing. The people there are happy and seem like a family. The energy of the hotel was beautiful. I will miss it dearly. If you're looking for a nice getaway from it all, look no further.

Very nice!
Very nice hotel and very friedly and helpful staff. The balconies of the rooms are great for relaxing. The view is amazing and the pool-area great for relaxing. You can do dive and snorkeltrips, but you have always to arrange it by the hotel, because there is no more infrastructure around.
