Dolce Amore Resort

Good location and great vibe

New restaurant and resort, clean and tidy. Fabulous food and staff. The pizza is amazing if you follow their instructions on how to eat. Very comfortable and clean accommodation of only 8 units around a nice pool. Lovely staff. Restaurant is super popular in the evenings so suggest booking

We had a nice stay here and as a couple, we stayed four nights. Overall everything was nice. Rooms: The rooms are basic and clean. The shower is a modern power shower and is easy to use and to get whatever temperature you wish. The windows are privacy (reflective) during the day but not so at night so you need to pull the curtain. The balcony is nice and big with a view of Lee the pool area which is really nice. The bed mattress is comfy. The furniture is minimal and basic but does the job. Staff: We are at the adjoining restaurant two nights, and both times it was nice; one night I had a pizza and the other I had the seafood pasta ‘al dente’. Overall, pretty good Italian food when I compare with Italian restaurants in Ireland or Italy. The staff were very consistently nice and welcoming. They all helped us with any issues/queries or requests we had. We rented a scooter for some of the days too and the staff looked after us with regard to this. Other: The pool area is nice and chill, but could be kept cleaner due to a lot of bugs constantly drowning in it. However, it was still nice. The place has a generator that kicks in a few seconds after every power cut which was very handy and necessary in this island. Areas for improvement: - A safe for the rooms would be good - For the price you pay compared to other more luxurious accommodation, I think breakfast should be included here. It is not much effort for them to provide this, as they are primarily a busy restaurant who does a great trade here. - Pool could be cleaned more regularly - The area for parking the scooters/bikes near the side door should be upgraded to a hard surface like asphalt or concrete for a safer and easier place for guests to park bikes (gets full often and currently is just soil and rubble on a slope). - One small thing was I requested a small jug of milk for the coffee in the room as in Europe we don’t really use creamer much in coffee. I was charged for this. I thought that was a bit mean. - The selection of gelatos we thought was quite poor, but maybe it is tailored to local taste. Usually, a gelato counter has a lot of the classics like cheesecake, forest fruits, cookies and cream etc.

Charming place, lovely people, amazing typical italian food, perfect WIFI and great service!!! I loved everything about my stay at Dolce Amore. Thanks to the team for making my workation so enjoyable. Only thing to improve would be no plastic water bottles in the room, especially as I heard that the island tries to be zero waste! You could put a big dispenser in every room and sell reusable bottles.

We stayed in Dolce Amore during our round trip in the Philippines and we really loved the welcoming staff and the delicious food here! The rooms are modern and high standard, the owners are also extrem helpful and attentive. They make you feel like being at home and staying here as “one big family”. We can highly recommend Dolce Amore for sure!
