Two Seasons Coron Island Resort & Spa

The modern design of the bungalow with AC in front of the beautiful tranquil beach. I did not find any trash around the beach and also no seaweeds, indicating the resort is investing a lot in cleaning the beach. Not many mosquitoes compared to other resorts. We enjoyed the privacy and silence of the resort. The design of the pool is elegant although the size is small. The easy access to the bar from the pool is nice. The hospitality of the staff is good. I generally like the idea of supporting the local brand (two seasons branding is good to represent the two seasons of the Philippines) and of eco-friendly resort to protect the beautiful environment of the Philippines.

The transport to the resort in the storm for 45 minutes would not be acceptable. Without any option, we were rushed to take a single engine boat without protection (uncovered) with a rain jacket. As a result, we were exposed to the storm and the turmoil of the ocean for 45 minutes. We could not even breathe as the wet wind was so strong and we did not get offered a towel or any warm drink until we asked(the manager offered a free laundry and dinner to compensate the horrible experience). If you have an expensive winter down jacket, it will be completely soaked and damaged with salt water so better not to bring or pack in a plastic bag. The weather in the Philippines is unpredictable so the resort needs some backup plan.The port is at Two Seasons Bayside so at least the resort can offer a cup of coffee or tea while waiting for the storm to be quiet or invest in additional covered boats. The price of the resort is more than twice expensive compared to other 4 start resorts and do not include food and drinks. If guests spend $700-800 per night when the rest of the 4 star hotels in the neighborhood are $200-300 and the resort can only provide 3.5 star services, the resort should really consider to decrease the price or improve the quality of the experience. For those who are snorkeling, you can not see the coral gardens so you would have to go to island hopping tour to see the real beauty of Palawan. Would I come back? - probably no. life is too short and the opportunity cost is so high.
