Avis Northville Beach Resort by Cocotel

Excellent service

place was clean and quiet. I didn't mind the resident cats except one which got mean a little when i stopepd her from fighting other cats haha. the entrance from the main road had a sudden, substantial drop that gets rough and rocky. needs to get fixed

Had a pleasant stay. Not luxurious but nice enough location wise. Close to Kota Beach and wharf as well as food central area of Sta Fe.

We stayed at the neighboring resort before staying here, and the Bantayan huts are a much better option. At similiar price. The biggest problem we had with this place was the non-functioning shower.. totally loose to the wall, a bit amazing that they rent out a place in this condition. Wifi was slow or non-functioning. Could also do with some more soundproofing. They had a cute fish pond. .

DOABLE First glimpse: - tv didnt work - Bathroom smelled nasty- it was mainly from ventilation. I kept the window open and it was fine after a few hours - Mosquitoes inside the room- window screen not sealed, no wonder! I covered the holes with toilet paper and it worked. - Electric outlets broken, only one was functional. Not end of the world, i guess. - Bed uncomfortable with bed bugs, so i slept with my pajamas and longsleeves on. The AC was strong anyway and gets really cold! - Blankets and sheets smelled unclean - Tiny roach, little worm in the bathroom- I smashed them both and nothing else showed up - Water faucet slows down to fast drip rate at night. Pros: - staff were nice and sweet. - strong AC - The garden has big Neem trees, which naturally repels mosquitoes. - Strong toilet pressure - Pretty and kept clean garden, nice koi pond! - Beach front and pretty quiet, although not the cleanest beach. - Has own restaurant - Near strip of restaurants and shops Conclusion: - overall, this place was doable and definitely “livable” especially after the bathroom smell was aired out. This will be comfortable for low maintenance / low budget people- definitely not for high standard fancy crap type of people. I can be of both so I was ok about it after a few hours. We booked last minute and this was the best i could get that time for a big group. If you expect anything more of the service, you’ll be miserable. I chose not to. So it was overall o
