The hotel was clean and staff extremely friendly!”
I can't say enough of how friendly all of hotel staff was to us during our stay. My friends and I had a mishap in Sabang where we had to stay overnight. The next day we arrived back at the hotel. The hotel staff asked what had happened and went above and beyond to make up for it even though it was through no fault of their own. Although the breakfast time had already passed, they still accommodated us for breakfast, complimentary drinks and pizza. They even waived the extra person charge for our full stay. Aside from that, the ferry service was suspended and we could not return to manila that night. They gave us the best rate for the additional night. The staff went above and beyond their call of duty to make us feel very welcome in their hotel. I definitely recommend Marco Vincent Dive Resort to all future travelers to White Beach, Puerto Galera.

Very Nice and clean hotel”
The best hotel in Puerto Galera. Our room is okay and near the swimming pool. Free Breakfast, you can choose your own meal. The location is 2-3 minutes from the hotel to Puerto Galera beach. We really enjoyed our stay in Marco Vincent Dive and I definitely recommend this hotel to my friends and family.

Best Hotel in White Beach Area”
While the Marco Vincent was probably the most expensive hotel in the White Beach area, it was the best I had seen in several stays in the White Beach area. The price was not high, breakfast and number of choices was excellent. Many items not available for lunch or dinner that were on the extensive menu. Few guests in the hotel due to it being low season, but it made the stay very quiet and relaxing .Two indoor swimming pools, one being a bubble pool. Staff was very friendly. We went on an island hopping tour that was excellent all around.

Dear Mr. Robert, Greetings from Marco Vincent Dive Resort! Thank you very much for your lovely comment. We are very pleased to read that you have enjoyed everything about our hotel. We really hope there'll be another chance to have you here soon. Kind regards, MV TEAM
Excellent service”
The hotel itself is very decent and clean. The staffs are all smiles when they welcome guests. We're in a hurry, running out of time for our 12:30 boat trip from Muelle Port to Batangas Pier that we left some stuffs at the hotel lobby upon check out. If we would go back to the hotel for it then we wouldnt make it to our trip. Then we received a call from Marco Vincent informing as that we left some things and that their staff carrying our things was already on his way to the port to meet us. =) Thank you for Marco Vincent for helping us out even before we ask for it!! =)

Ritz of the White Beach!”
Great, polite and well trained staff. This is the best hotel on the white beach and quite rightly so. Good food too, especially at the aqua beach restaurant. This place was built and set up for divers, they have best dive center probably on the entire Puerto Galera!

Excellent - Staff ever so helpful”
On Dec 25 & 26, the island was all but wiped out by a typhoon - the strongest in this region for more than 100 years. Without electricity on the island, the staff informed guests of the brown outs but accommodated as well as possible using generators. Our holiday was not impacted too much by the inconveniences caused by the typhoon but was certainly enhanced by the efforts of the staff under extraordinary circumstances. Would go back to Marco Vincent Resort in a heartbeat!

One of the better hotels in White Beach”
Stayed in this hotel last March 2-4 for the Malasimbo festival and we had a very good stay. No major complaints about our trip - the worst thing I can say is that it's far from the beach (about a 5 minute walk), and the banana split I ordered for midnight snack was the worst looking banana split I saw in my life :p One thing I can say though is that their staff is well trained and good customer service seems to be a major priority for them. They even took care of reserving seats for us on our boat trip back to Batangas Port! Pros: FANTASTIC customer service. Spacious t&b. Clean rooms. Good security. Beautiful courtyard with swimming pool. Yummy food. Cons: Location - it's quite a walk from the beach. Rooms are quite pricey for Puerto Galera. Considerable noise from our neighboring room (adjoining door was no good). Bottled water in our rooms weren't complimentary (as is usually the practice for most hotels).

One of the nicer hotels on whitebeach”
the marco vincent is quite nice for a dive resort and given that white beach doesn't really have a "nicer" area for hotels this is certainly one of the better ones you'll find. food is average, staff is good and there is plenty the hotel staff can set you up with to keep you entertained throughout your stay.

Love our stay in this hotel”
we stayed at this hotel this december with our 2 young kids. we all loved the room, the pool (esp at night with lights that adds to the beauty of the place),and the food. our son kept on begging to extend our stay but we just can't because of prior appointment.i know we will be going back there if time permits. so far, it's the best place for me to stay when in white beach, puerto galera.

Quiet location on the back of White Beach”
Overall it was a short and pleasent stay, an being located on the back of White Beach, you can't hear the noise of the bars. Still it is only 100 meters away from the beach. They have a big diving shop and great diving facilities, plus a beachfront small restaurant with the dive office. Rooms are not very big, but you wil spend most of the time outside the resort. Bathrooms are clean and modern, a bit small without windows, but big shower space. The room was clean, with very comfortable beds, aircon and flat screen TV. It has everything you would expect from a 3 stars hotel, which is a very positive thing for the Philippines. Recommended for those divers and night life lovers that expect something more in terms of comfort, rather than simply a bed where to sleep.

Kinda Pricey But The Place Was Nice”
Pros: has comforter, free breakfast, unlimited coffee for breakfast, pool jacuzzi with warm water, free refreshment at their beach-side restaurant, diving packages Cons: a bit pricey, was expecting breakfast buffet (less guests means a la carte breakfast) We got a complimentary room upgrade, which was nice. Their pool is huge, and the best part was the jacuzzi! Their free a la carte breakfast has big portions. Would stay here again if the price is right. :)

nice and quant”
beautiful facility inside, wonderful and helpful staff. Its just that I would like a beach and dive resort on the beach not a 3-4 minute walk away. The so called road it is on is basically for single lane passage and if it has rained recently it is more like a lake. Impossible to get through without getting your feet wet. The white beach area is beautiful but the food and entertainment has a lot to be desired. Breakfast at the hotel was always good. Transportation around the town is by tricycle, I am 200 lbs and over 6 feet tall, I just dont fit in those damn things well. The trike drivers are also a lot more expensive at night, double rate is normal if you are a foreigner. We did find a good man there that was honest and willing to earn a fare rate. All in all a great place in a bad location.

An Oasis at White Beach ”
The hotel consisted of fairly standard but clean / well decorated rooms, small bar / restaurant and a nice pool. Leaving the beach you need to follow a small dirty road back about 50 metres to find this gem tucked away opposite some open land. The staff and general ambience were excellent and sitting by the courtyard enclosed pool was relaxing. Considering the lack of beach front location and fairly basic facilities I felt the property was priced on the high side but is for sure the best hotel at white beach. Staff were excellent and being a very regular traveler it was the first time I've ever been called in the morning to check if I was coming for breakfast as it was ending time and they would hold the restaurant open if I was running a little late. Not bad considering it was pre paid and they could have easily just closed and declared I was too late. In summary, if your looking for a nice hotel at white beach you won't find better, if your price conscious other places are cheaper
