A Private Paradise on Malapascua Island

It was my first time on Malapascua Island, and staying at Tepanee Beach Resort felt like discovering a true hidden paradise. The hotel is located in Logon Daanbantayan, at the tip of this beautiful island. Although transportation on the island relies heavily on boats, this only adds to the island's mystique. When you step onto the hotel's private beach, all your travel fatigue seems to vanish. In terms of location, Tepanee Resort is incredibly convenient. Whether you want to enjoy diving at Dive Society Malapascua or explore the underwater world at Divelink Cebu, these activities are just a short distance away. The hotel's decor is full of Southeast Asian charm, making it feel warm and homely. The reception staff are very professional, warm, and friendly, and you can feel their attentive care from the moment you check in. The room design is thoughtful, spacious, and bright, with a safe and air conditioning to ensure privacy and comfort for every guest. The deluxe villa I stayed in offered direct views of the sea, and the beautiful scenery was incredibly relaxing. The room was well-equipped, and simply sitting on the balcony watching the waves crash against the beach was a pleasure. The bed was very comfortable, and the pillows were great. It's worth mentioning that every room has a mosquito net, which is especially friendly for those who are afraid of mosquitoes. The entire stay felt like great value for money, even exceeding my expectations. There are many great restaurants near the hotel, such as Amihan Restaurant and Ocean Vida, offering delicious Southeast Asian cuisine. If you want to enjoy a meal in your room, the hotel also provides excellent room service. We particularly loved the pizza at Amihan Restaurant; it was really delicious! Dining there while enjoying the sea view was a real treat. Of course, the resort's pool is also a highlight not to be missed. Fitness enthusiasts can work out in the small gym. For a more luxurious experience, there's a massage room where you can enjoy a relaxing massage and feel rejuvenated. For diving enthusiasts, the hotel is located next to excellent diving spots. One small downside is that although the resort is fantastic overall, the internet connection is not very reliable and often disconnects. This could be a problem for those who need a stable internet connection. However, it's also a reminder to get closer to nature. If you're looking for a place to relax and enjoy beautiful sea views, Tepanee Beach Resort is definitely a great choice. After experiencing a wonderful vacation, I've decided to return to this private paradise next year to enjoy the tranquility and beauty once again.
