The hotel was good on this trip, besides the one bartender hitting up on my girl I was with. Also I left a decent tip at checkout but they forgot to check the mini bar. I had drank a couple beers and ended up having to pay that which was way under the tip amount and basically another tip as I didn't have change then when they called and j had to leave with the tour guide that took us to the ferry to leave the island.
Then onto the tour itself. Wasn't bad persay. Lots of activities, not all that was listed when I booked tho as unavailable.
Main problem I had is I didn't know where the heck I was going daily, and during it the guide refused to speak much English to me directly even tho he knew it fluently. So I had to sit in the tricycle not knowing where I was going during and hearing him talk to my then filipina girlfriend the entire time without knowing what was even being said, even when I kept having to interrupt and ask where we were going after he was done speaking where in Filipino. My ex knew English fluently too. Just annoying when you are a tourist and don't speak that language and they keep looking at you as they joke and speak something you don't understand, and act like you do. Furthermore being I didn't know where I was going I wasn't dressed accurately each morning. I could have just went back in and delayed and changed each day but would have been better to know well before hand the expected day activities. They might have said a little prior, but not enough for me to understand with the stress I was already going thru.
Wasn't even able to go to kota beach, which wasn't directly their fault. However they made the problems worse with me and my then girlfriend which caused us to cut the trip short.
Overall 3/5 stars. I wish I could rate higher but the trip was already terrible for me because of the situation I was in, and that tour guide and bartender (not the owner bartender as he was great) wasn't making my vacation any better.

The Tour was wonderful! The manager and his wife are super friendly and all the staff too. The drivers were always on time and from the pick up until the drop off at the end everything was fine. The apartement was clean and everthing was as described. We were able to plan the tour individually and the tour guide was very handsome and kind. We will be coming back next year.

The island is interesting. Lots or recognisable places and foods. Lots of choices for food snd drinks and safe to walk around. Lack of communication on what we were doing nothing explained to us. We did not have a itenary for the days do unaware of where we suppose to be. Island hopping nice although felt like on display most of time due to how busy it was and People just staring at us.
