Tepanee Beach Resort

Location convenient close to pier, and with beaches both sides. Value for money. Breakfast may be improved but generally all good. Would stay in cottage house next time (closer to sea, and more unique)

Nice place, the shark sanctuary was great!

Abbiamo soggiornato presso il Tepanee beach per una settimana. Non volevamo più andarcene. I proprietari, Silvia e Andrea, oltre ad essere delle persone estremamente piacevoli con cui conversare, hanno creato un piccolo paradiso a Malapascua, con un occhio attento al buon cibo, all’atmosfera tranquilla dell’ambiente e al rispetto della natura in cui hanno investito tante energie. Al Tepanee si trovano tutti gli elementi per potersi rilassare senza annoiarsi, per riscoprirsi nella natura, nella lentezza e nell’attenzione ai piccoli particolari, tra cui una piccola libreria multilingue da cui attingere meravigliose storie! Un caloroso abbraccio, ci rivedremo sicuramente

Das Tepanee Resort kann eigentlich weiter empfohlen werden: - schlichte aber saubere Zimmer. Leider sind sie etwas hellhörig und man muss einfach Glück haben mit der Vergabe. Es gibt Bungalows, deren Terrasse komplett auf dem Weg liegen ohne Aussicht - was im Gegensatz zu anderen einfach schade wirkt. - ein schlichtes Frühstücksbufett, was leider erst ab 08:00 Uhr angeboten wird und somit für aktive Taucher, die dann schon auf dem Boot sind, verschenktes Geld ist. Hier sind die filipinischen Gerichte oft gut, das Obst und Gemüse aber arg lieblos angerichtet. Auch auf Nachfrage kann hier nix vorbereitet werden. Vor Allem wegen der tollen Lage würde ich das Resort gerne weiter empfehlen, weil es an einer sehr schönen und geschützten Bucht liegt, die vor Artenvielfalt nur so strotzt und ein Rückzugsort für junge schwarz spitzen riffhaie bietet. Hier kommt nun jedoch das Aber: - der Preis für die Zimmer ist mMn zu hoch - die Bucht wird vom Besitzer und den Angestellten kontrolliert und es wird darauf geachtet , dass schnorchler sich gut verhalten. Was an und für sich gut klingt, artet jedoch darin aus, dass über die Bucht oft geschrien, gepfiffen und mit dem Megafon gesprochen wird. Eine Absolut absurde Situation, in der der Inhaber des Resorts vermeintlich keine Lösungen findet, in Problemlage geratene Anfänger im Schnorcheln zu helfen (z.B. mit schwimmenden Ringen, an denen sie die Maske richten können/ die Betonklötze sind bereits am Boden) - sondern lediglich auf sehr ekelhafte Weise rummotzt. So wurde sogar von schnorchlern und Inhaber hin und her geschrien in der Bucht. Einfach unangenehm. Mein Tip: Nehmt ein preiswertes hotel und zahlt die 200php eintritt um vor Ort in der Bucht zu schnorcheln. Die Bucht lohnt sich, das Hotel mMn nicht.

The nicest Resort we’ve been to in the three weeks spent around Philippines by bike! The resort really cares about the environment, included sea life. They succeeded in protecting the beach and the sea, in fact we could swim with so many sharks, such an emotion!!! Fishes, corals, everything lives in front of the resort! Not a single plastic thing found in the sea or on the beach, also the sea is very clean!! Of course, they’re Italian so the food is the perfect mix of Italian quality and philippines ingredients! Thanks again Andrea and Silvia, you did an amazing job with the resort and we wish you all the best luck for your future!

Very good location for the resort. Rooms are on top of a small hill and commands great views of the sea and sunset. It has a small private beach which is very good for snorkelling. A good Italian restaurant is just next door and the most happening area of the island is walking distance from this resort. Staff can be a hit and miss, mostly a hit. Recommended.

I stayed in a Deluxe Cottage , absolutely amazing location with stunning views . Extremely helpful staff . Nice quiet location . Everything you need is standard in the room :- Kettle , Drinks , Fridge , A / C , Fan . I would highly recommend this Resort

We loved this hotel as the location is beautiful with a fantastic view over the blue sea and the clear water. The little beach is protected which means, you can only go to sea for snorcheling which is fantastic as this hotel makes a big contribution to keep the seaworld as much protected as possible. Who does not like this or wants a place to swim and play in the water should choose another ressort. The rooms are beautiful and the food in both restaurants are delicious with a fantastic Italian focus. The manager Andrea is always there and you can see that he is putting all his effort in this wonderful resort. We had two dinners at the restaurant and really had excellent dishes. We will come back!

the hotel is very nice, probably located in the best spot of malapascua island, to view sunset and swim with baby sharks., the problem is that it is not adeguate for divers.. if you are a serious diver who wants to dive 3 times during the morning and do a night dive, it is definately NOT IDEAL as the diving is not located in the facility. Having personal equiment, it was stored by the diving company, never washed for a week, covered in sand. i could have brought my styff back but there was nowhere to hang stuff in the balcony and the hotel had steep stairs, so not vey confortable to carry your stuff every day. also as i dived every day (dives start at 5 or 6 o'oclock) i never ever had breakfast in the hotel and it was a pain to ask the staff the night before if they could preprare something for me. some breakfast is offered on the boat but it is usually very heavy food, not adeguate for repetite divers. also you are not allowed to have electricity in the room while you are not in the room so you can't recharge very easily your cameras, and lights.
