This is a report on a private island. Resort was very natural. Restaurant and bar service was good. Many food choices and all food was good. The pool deck needs to be refinished as wood was splintering. Very friendly staff and beautiful scenery. We enjoyed the stay at this property.

Honestly the most incredible holiday experience we have ever had! My husband and I holidayed with our 3 adult children and daughter in law! From the moment we arrived we felt as though we had been dropped into a luxury movie set! Too beautiful to be real! Gobsmacking natural beauty of coral reef and lush rainforest and the most perfect beach. The staff have clearly been hand picked to work here. Easy communication with English. Incredibly polite and accommodating with everything! The one and only restaurant was big and welcoming but also romantic for those wanting exclusion and privacy. There was a wonderful selection of fresh food and an extensive menu for all tastes. The bar was fully stocked with all spirits and beverages from all corners of the world and the cocktails were incredible. We stayed in the Bayview pool villa that was perched a steep 4 minute walk from the resort pool and restaurant. Phenomenal views. Our own private pool. We will be back most certainly

You will want to stay for more!!! Definitely one of our best stays in a resort. I can confidently say that this resort is of world class caliber. From pick up to departure, their team and staff always made sure that everything is facilitated and taken cared for. The attention to detail is impeccable that the whole experience is very personalized. Nestled in an isolated area, Cauayan resort guests can enjoy tranquility, peace and be one with nature. Complimented by the top notch service from their team and staff, there is nothing you can ask for but to wish that your stay could have been longer or that the experience will not end soon. The amenities are good and enough and I am sure could be better but the quality of service you get is what makes it standout and special. My words can not give justice to the whole experience so you must try it!!!. Shoutout to each and every member of their team for a job very well done. Special mention to Ms. Jen Taduran and Mac for making our stay extra special and for leading a team worthy of recognition.

Paradise!
Like no other place we've stayed before, this place is a paradise island! Beautiful location & villas, friendly staff and the most amazing food (this coming from a vegetarian - the veggie and vegan menu is extensive and absolutely delicious). To top it off we did kayaking, snorkelling & paddle boarding off the beach of the hotel and saw a sea turtle amongst the coral! Highly recommend the spa too, watching a shark in the sea below whilst having a message is an experience I won't forget. The whole stay was perfect
