Luxurious Villa Experience

My husband and I stayed in one of the villas with a private pool and it was magnificent! The villa was massive and beautifully designed, featuring luxurious amenities like a spacious bathroom with two wash basins and a large shower. Plus, the decor was stunning, with plenty of USB ports to keep our devices charged. I loved the seamless communication through the tablet provided for ordering meals or arranging activities, making our stay incredibly convenient. We had such a nice time enjoying the private infinity pool right outside our door.

Culinary Delights

The dining experience at Kalinaw Resort was great! Although the restaurant was closed for renovations, the butler service provided us with delicious meals directly to our villa. We were particularly impressed with the breakfast selections, which were prepared to our liking even if we made special requests. One evening, we enjoyed their fantastic cocktails, particularly the fresh coconut shake and banana daiquiri. Each meal felt like a culinary adventure, and the food quality was superb!

Spacious and Elegant Bathroom

The bathroom in our villa was a highlight of our stay. It was incredibly spacious and beautifully appointed, featuring a large tub where I could relax after a day of exploring. I appreciated the dual wash basins, which made things easier for both my husband and me. It was more than just functional; the bathroom was a little slice of luxury that enhanced our overall experience at Kalinaw.

Blissful Spa Services

We had the delight of experiencing spa services right within the resort. The massages were heavenly and if you have the chance, I recommend trying one of the outdoor treatments to enjoy the beautiful natural surroundings. The tranquility of the resort's environment made it the perfect backdrop for relaxation. We also loved lounging by the infinity pool, enjoying the serene views and lush gardens, which truly embodied leisure.

My stay at the resort was absolutely fantastic, offering a great level of luxury and privacy with just a few villas. The amenities are top-notch, and the service was outstanding. However, I felt that the dining options could be better, especially for early risers, as I wished there were more variety available for breakfast. Overall, it's a perfect getaway location for relaxation, but there's some room for improvement in dining service.

My stay at the resort was absolutely magical! From the moment we arrived, the breathtaking view and modern villa design took my breath away. The service was exceptional, with staff who genuinely made us feel at home. I loved having a personal pool and easy access to beautiful beaches. The only downside was that some amenities were still being worked on, but it was hardly noticeable with the attention we received.
