We had a great stay at this hotel! We were in a premium villa (not ocean view). It was big, clean, quiet and had a great balcony. We were unfortunate with the weather and it rained a lot during our stay but we still took the paddle boards out, played pool and pongpong which made the days better! ...

What are some of the general tips for travellers to Mindanao during the COVID-19 outbreak?
The COVID-19 outbreak has led to significant changes to the way we travel. If you plan to visit Mindanao, these tips will help you navigate travel's newest challenges:

  • When you go through airport screening, keep your face mask on. You will be asked to briefly lower it for identification purposes. Travellers who refuse to wear a face mask may be fined and denied entry.
  • Rather than handing a TSA officer your boarding pass, place it directly on the scanner yourself. After that, hold it up for inspection.
  • TSA is now permitting passengers to take one container of hand sanitizer, up to 12 oz (350 ml) in size, in carry-on luggage. This will need to be removed from your bag and presented for screening.
  • Place any personal items (phone, wallet and keys) in your carry-on instead of a bin to minimize handling during the screening process.
  • If you're planning to take food through security screening, put it in a clear plastic bag and then into a scanning bin. This reduces the likelihood that a TSA agent will need to touch your carry-on bag or food container for inspection.
