Paradiso Rito — Hotel in Mabini

Paradiso Rito is truly a paradise on its own. If you’re looking for a place to relax, unwind and just simply bond with your family and friends, then this is the vacation spot for you, and it won’t disappoint!||Even though my friends and I had stayed here for only one night, we enjoyed every moment of it. We booked their so-called Forest House, but were upgraded the last minute to their even better space, the Art House, with no extra charge! Thanks to the hospitality and kindness of their host, Ms. Maricar.||We were warmly greeted upon arrival by their other host, Sir Ike. We had checked in early too, with no problem at all. The staff were all friendly and accommodating.||We had four buffet meals included in our package (lunch-dinner-breakfast-lunch), and all were well-prepared and very tasty! They offered a variety of dishes to choose from. They had unlimited coffee and tea drinks as well. ||Also, they even let us experience toasting marshmallows over a campfire that night after dinner!||The rooms were clean and spacious. There were also amenities. We had the whole second floor to ourselves (we were a group of eight), complete with a pool table, foosball, TV, a huge common area and balcony. There were more than enough rooms, each with its own TV and bathroom. Not to mention there’s an infinity swimming pool on the first floor!||With just a few steps away from the sea, we were treated to a wonderful view and relaxing vibe, with truly instagrammable shots!||We also enjoyed snorkeling the morning after. There were a lot of colorful fishes and corals just a few feet away from the shore.||All in all, we really enjoyed our stay there and we won’t hesitate to come back! It is highly...

+++_ Paradiso is has a cozy ambiance, with artsy feels. I really enjoyed the manicured garden with swings and lounging chairs. The pool was just the right size and depth (4 feet deep). The second floor where our rooms were located were clean with cool AC and a working cable. The sala on the second floor was so relaxing and gave an unobstructed view of the sea , really awesome just to sit and relax.The wifi worked better in common areas. We were lucky to come at a time when the other guests have left so we enjoyed the house exclusively for a whole day! This place will give you lots of instagrammable shots.|-- Negatives- We chose the the resort to enjoy the beach and snorkeling. However, there was hardly any beach. The beach front was rocky, no sand. We spotted some tropical fish but there were hardly any corals. The resort also did not have a lifeguard so we didn't feel safe to explore the water. Some plastic bottles and trash littered the shore and no one seemed to be cleaning. Food in the resort was very expensive and left much to be desired. The pancit and kinilaw na tanique were good but all the rest of the orders need improvement. |The staff were friendly, one even offered newly harvested mangoes (thank you!) We requested some help in unloading our bags when we arrived but we were left waiting for a long time so we just decided do it on our own. (We had senior citizen and a 3 year old...

|Our 3 days stay in Paradiso Rito felt like we were visiting a family relative out of town. Wackie, Maricar and all of the staff treated us as if we known each other for a long time. This is what I like best about staying in a boutique resort. ||I am already sold when I saw the view of the sea and the neighboring island. The room is clean and looks well kept when we arrived. Hands down to the resort’s cook as our family has been served a gastronomic full board meal on the entirety of our stay. We ordered ala carte meals for our merienda and it is fairly priced. They also serve a good selection of alcohol and drinks.||Our island hopping activity was well planned by Wackie. It is so thoughtful of him to pack towels, drinking water and cups on our boat. He was checking on us when we left for the island hopping and I saw him near the shore waiting for us as we arrive (define customer service).||Me and my wife could only wish to stay longer. We already miss the comfort, the view and the feel-like close family relative treatment we received from Wackie, Maricar and their staff. ||Thank...
