Ging-Ging Hotel and Resort — Hotel in Oslob

Convenient place to stay in in Oslob. We booked this hotel resort for 2 nights which is 30 minutes away from the whale watching area. Our room was a bit tight for 3 beds but definitely comfortable. There was a window AC which was adequate but it could have been better. It comes with toothbrushes and shampoos for 6 people. The bathroom is separate from the shower room. Hot water in the shower was great. We requested a kettle in the room but they said they don't allow this in rooms and offered to provide hot water in a cup if needed, available in the restaurant area. They are strict with stains in their linens which their orient you with as soon as you check-in on the front desk. Our room was in the ground floor right in front of the infinity pool with the jacuzzis. I love it! The pool and all areas in this place is clean and well maintained by the staff who constantly go around and greet you with a smile. The guard on duty during our stay, kuya Edic even went to help us with bringing the laundry to the laundry shop and back. Their staff are amazing. Their restaurant is right in front of the sea with 2 piers that light up at night where you could also dine. The food is ok. I think there are other places that serve better food but we didn't try eating outside because we have little ones and the restaurant is very convenient since we also swam at night. My kids enjoyed the pool very much, they swam in the morning, after noon and evening. Be sure to bring insect repellent as there is a good amount of mosquito morning and night. The only con is that they have this overflow near the infinity pool that could be dangerous to fall into for someone who doesn't pay attention. The railings that keep you from falling from the shore are a bit low and it is very easy for kids to get over it and fall. Overall, I would definitely stay in this place again and I highly recommend it. Just make sure to always keep an eye to...

Avoid at All Costs – One of the Worst Hotel Experiences of My Life

I travel often and rarely leave reviews, but this experience was so unacceptable I feel obligated to warn others. This hotel completely ruined what was supposed to be a relaxing trip with my family.

We were given not one, not two—but three different rooms, and every single one had serious issues. The first two rooms were full of ants, crawling across the floor and furniture. Disgusting. After complaining, we were moved to a third room. While there were no ants (yet), the problems didn’t stop: • The air conditioning barely worked, making it impossible to sleep comfortably. • Water pressure in the shower was almost nonexistent, and the bathroom floor looked filthy. • The mini fridge didn’t even have power—completely useless. • And when I asked to speak with the owner or management, staff refused to provide any information.

It’s shocking that this hotel has high ratings. Now I truly believe some businesses buy fake reviews, because nothing about our stay reflects the score it shows online.

Yes, the view is beautiful—but that’s not a reason to ignore poor hygiene, broken amenities, and unresponsive management. My stay here was stressful, frustrating, and deeply disappointing. Instead of enjoying our holiday, we spent it changing rooms and chasing basic comfort.

I will be reporting this hotel to Booking.com, Agoda, and other platforms. Places like this should not be allowed to operate. If you value your time, money, and peace of mind—do yourself a favor and...
