Ocean 101 Beach Resort

“Amazing views!”

I stayed there with my family for 2 weeks. All the staff was very friendly and accomodating. The outdoor area of the hotel is amazing. We have been to many hotels when we were there (to eat lunch) and we agreed that Ocean 101 had the best pool and hotel views in the island. If you are a surfer is a great place to stay as well (close to all the main waves). The rooms are very simple but comfortable.

“A THERAPY PLACE”

If you’re coming to Siargao for surfing or just want to soak in the Cloud 9 vibe, Ocean 101 is pretty much right where you want to be.

If you’re coming to Siargao for surfing or just want to soak in the Cloud 9 vibe, Ocean 101 is pretty much right where you want to be. The location is unbeatable — it’s literally a stone’s throw from the famous Cloud 9 boardwalk. I could sit on the deck with my morning coffee and watch the sunrise while surfers were already out there catching waves. It doesn’t get more Siargao than that. The rooms are simple, nothing too fancy, but comfortable enough. Think island style — wooden interiors, basic amenities, and a cozy vibe that fits the surf culture. Don’t expect five-star luxury, but you’re not here for that anyway. You’re here for the location, the beach, and the sunsets that look like they’ve been Photoshopped. The food at the restaurant surprised me — portions are big (which is great after wiping out on waves all day) and the prices are reasonable compared to other nearby spots. The only thing is service can sometimes be on “island time” — you might wait a bit longer for your food, but hey, you’re in Siargao. Relax. Grab a beer, watch the waves, and remember you’re not stuck in traffic somewhere. What I really loved was the vibe. The resort feels social without being loud. You meet surfers, travelers, and locals hanging around, but it’s still peaceful enough to nap in a hammock. The staff were super friendly too — always smiling, always ready to help. Overall, Ocean 101 isn’t about luxury, it’s about location, community, and that laid-back surf lifestyle. If you want to wake up, walk a few steps, and be at one of the best surf spots in Asia, this place nails it. Just bring a little patience and a sense of humor — after all, if your breakfast takes 20 minutes, it’s just more time to stare at that insane view. Would I stay again? Definitely yes. Just don’t blame them if you get hooked and end up extending your stay… like I did.

This hotel offers a stay defined by stunning natural beauty and some great staff, but it is let down by inconsistent housekeeping, maintenance issues, and unreliable technology. The Good: Highlights of the Stay · Staff in the Restaurant: The service team in the dining area was a definite highlight. They were attentive, friendly, and contributed positively to the meal experience. · Complimentary Breakfast: A solid start to the day. The breakfast spread offered good variety and quality. · Room Comfort: The bed was very comfortable, ensuring a good night's sleep (when the AC wasn't disrupting it). · The View: The sea views from the room were spectacular and provided a truly relaxing environment. This is likely the hotel's biggest selling point. The Mixed: Okay, But Could Be Better · Room Decor & AC: The room decor was just okay—functional but not particularly inspiring. The air conditioning, specifically a window unit, was noticeable. It worked, but the noise level might bother light sleepers. · Swimming Pool: The pool was adequate for a dip, but nothing special to write home about. The Not Good: Areas Needing Improvement · Housekeeping: The room cleaners were inconsistent. There seemed to be a lack of attention to detail in the cleaning process. · Unfulfilled Requests: The staff's ability to follow through on specific requests was poor. This suggests a potential breakdown in communication or follow-through between the front desk and other departments. · Room Maintenance: · Rattling Patio Doors: This was a persistent annoyance. The noise from loose doors detracts from the relaxing atmosphere created by the sea view. · WiFi: The internet connection was a major frustration. It was both weak and intermittent, making it difficult to browse, stream, or work. Final Verdict: This hotel is ideal for travelers who prioritize a comfortable bed and a breathtaking ocean view and are willing to overlook some maintenance flaws. However, if reliable WiFi, quiet rooms, and spotless service are your top priorities, you may want to consider other options or ensure these issues are addressed before booking.

My partner, son, and I stayed at Ocean 101 Cloud 9 Surf Resort for 6 nights and 7 days. We booked two rooms — my partner and I stayed in the Executive Beachfront Room, while my son stayed in one of the Garden Rooms. The beachfront room had an absolutely breathtaking view, especially at sunset, and both rooms were kept very clean. The beds were comfortable, although we often had to request hand towels for the bathroom. The resort’s restaurant serves really good food and delicious cocktails, with prices that were very reasonable — especially for drinks. The swimming pool was well maintained and cleaned daily. Staff were friendly, and the whole resort had a very family-friendly atmosphere. One of my favourite moments was relaxing in the hammock, watching the birds, and enjoying the sunset every day — pure bliss. The resort was fully booked mid-week during our stay, and while we understand the staff were busy, service for other guests should not have been compromised. For example, every time we ordered a mango shake, we were told they had run out of mangoes — something that could have been easily sourced from nearby shops. Despite this, I would happily return and recommend Ocean 101 Cloud 9 Surf Resort to anyone looking for a beautiful, family-friendly beach getaway with unforgettable sunsets.
