I had a lovely stay at Bulul Garden Resort, enjoying its cozy atmosphere and great location just a short walk from the village center. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, making my experience even better. However, there were a few issues, like the lack of a fridge and occasional noise from construction, which slightly impacted my overall enjoyment.

The resort has an excellent location, just 200-300 meters from the main village, making it easy to explore local restaurants and shops. Despite being on a main street, it felt quiet and peaceful at night.

I enjoyed dining at the resort's associated restaurant, La Siette. The delivery service to my room was convenient, especially during a typhoon when I wanted to avoid going out. The food was delicious, particularly the French dishes, and I appreciated the 10% discount.

While the facilities were basic, including no swimming pool, the beautiful garden area was a great spot to unwind. I did find the absence of hot water after the first day a bit disappointing.

However, the room I had was quite small and lacked some basic amenities, and the staff were not very interactive. Overall, the resort offers a decent option, but there are many improvements needed.

My stay at Bulul Garden Resort had its ups and downs. While the location was excellent and the ambiance was lovely, the service left much to be desired. The lack of breakfast and ineffective Wi-Fi were inconvenient, and the room, though clean, had some dampness issues. Overall, I enjoyed the garden setting, but I probably won't return. 🌴😕

Unfortunately, there was no breakfast served, and the nearby restaurants' seafood made us sick. While the idea of dining at their restaurant with a delivery option was appealing, I didn't get to take full advantage of it.

Facilities

They offered basic amenities, but there weren't many facilities to speak of. No swimming pool and only minimal housekeeping made it feel more like a budget option than a resort experience.
