I love Mermaid! The room, the food, the pool, the location.. I love everything about it! Staff are friendly, food is great, pool is clean, rooms are superb! It's a short walk from the port and around it are lots of establishments. They take care of everything! We went island hopping and the boat men prepared our food. great for... More

I liked the reviews I read and was not disappointed. We had booked the junior suite which was lovely, but I wanted to experience the outdoor spa bath outside the penthouse suite so we upgraded for the second night - no hassles! It is a beautiful, clean hotel with super food and excellent staff! We definitely will be returning!

We celebrated our 2nd anniversary in Mermaid Resort. Had the most amazing time. We opted for the complete round trip transportation and penthouse suite. It was perfect. Upon arrival to the Philippines, my boyfriend and I were greeted by the driver at the airport then we were driven to the pier near Batangas and rode on a private bangka. The... More

Want to try something new as a diver? So it can only be recommended to dive with Mermaid in Sabang. Diving in the area is the most fascinating and mysterious I have experienced to date ... forget about 30-40 meters visibility, here it is about biodiversity at a rate so it is hard to understand. Has had 42 dives on... More

I have stayed in many hotels in this area and at the other nearby beaches. This property is superior, well maintained and modern. Very nice private pool and situated in a way to enjoy the privacy you want and convenience of being close to the beach as well. Sabang Beach isn't a white sand type beach and is more suited... More

I spent 4 days over there in order to dive.

In a word, perfect. Breakfast in the morning are the good quantity... More

By far the best resort I had the joy to stay at. Rooms are very clean and well equipped, food was particularly nice, enjoyed everything about Mermaid including the dive operation. Most of all the staff are extremely nice, they seem to work together as one big happy family and make you feel part of the family too

Great Resort in the Philippines. The Penthouse was just perfect. Very clean, cool and roomy. Loved the private terrace. Food in the resturant was great along with such a wonderful staff.
