Ocean's Edge Resort

The resort is in a beautiful location, overlooking the sea. The island is quiet and peaceful, ensuring total relaxation. The staff were friendly, professional and helpful. An authentic island experience!

Carabao island feels like being situated on the edge of the world and what's more appropriate then staying in the Ocean's Edge hotel - a piece of luxury surrounded by nature. The hotel boat picked us up from Caticlan airport (get a Motorized tricycles from the airport to SE hotel which is the meeting point). The boat trip is an hour from there to Carabao island. They have two pickup slots 10:30am and 2:30pm. We stayed in the hotel just after the typhoon (december 2019) when all the comms and internet were down. The staff was very helpful and made sure to overcome all the complexities we had after the nature disaster e.g. the electricity was on and off, no communication with the rest of the world. There is not much around the hotel but the staff is very accommodating and if you request to go to town they can drive you there on demand so you don't feel trapped in the resort. The small beach below the hotel is great for chilling out or for snorkeling. Also you can arrange a dive or a snorkelling trip with the Vibrations Dive Center which is located on the beach. Guillaume and Manu are so passionate about what they do and they have lots of stories about the oceans and its creatures to share. Highly recommended! The only comment about the service is that the restaurant staff are very slow, however, during our 5 days stay we have noticed the gradual improvement. The menu of the restaurant is vast and should be chopped in order to speed up the process.
