Been there, it was a good place to start, nice beach when high tide, calming waves, and cool place. morning is great during dawn, if you are coming to this resort, be sure to get a boat and get to vanishing island. its cheap and very good experience to stand in the middle of the ocean, the staff are not very welcoming, but ill rate the place 7/10
To Jie: Well, sorry sa na experience mo sa Marex Villarica. For me naman, It’s a nice place because it’s quit and so relaxing sa beach. Ang problema ko lang dun is yung aircon nila eh hindi malamig. Yung front beach is maganda and it’s fronting vanishing island.
IT IS THE MOST CREEPY RESORT I EVER EXPERIENCED!!!! April 15, 2015 when 7 of us visited this place. I’m with my friends and our group alone is the ONLY customers that day… – they have the WORST service we’ve ever experienced.
Consider these;
-you have to walk over a 100-200 meters away to their grilling station
-when it’s low tide the sea water within their resort area literally vanished…
-then when it’s already night time, the power shutdown twice. It was totally dark like you can’t see anything around you only the city lights across the island. We wonder why there’s no one come to us to offer us anything – an emergency light, a flash light or a candle at least but there’s really nothing. We went to the guard’s house and asked for it but they only answered that they can’t do anything about it coz’ there’s really nothing they can offer – no Candles, no flash lights plus bonfire is prohibited. God! think about it if you were in our shoe that time, it will surely pissed you off!
-Then we asked if they don’t have a electric generator… The guard answered us “Okay lang unta kung daghan mo kay amo i-on” which means they will turn it on ONLY IF they got a greater number of customers that night than us alone! BULLSHIT!!! Imagine that guys.
-It was so Dark, silent and CREEPY Place. The dog’s are wooing… PLUS two of our friends sensed something’s OFF about that place like someone else with our bare eyes can’t be seen… IT WAS SERIOUSLY SOOOO CREEPY! which made us left that place at 1am – (thank God when we texted the tricycle driver to fetch us, he replied a life saving message that he’s coming)
WE STRONGLY SUGGEST NOT TO COME TO THIS RESORT UNLESS YOU’RE GOING TO GHOST HUNT!!! and bring your own flashlight!
If you want proof that we were there I can send some images
