My stay at Utopia Resort was a mixed experience. The resort is peaceful and offers beautiful views, making it a great place for relaxation. However, noise from nearby parties and the less-than-ideal maintenance of the pool detracted from the overall experience. The food was decent but not as impressive as advertised. Overall, it has potential but falls short in a few areas.

My stay at Utopia Resort and Spa was truly remarkable! The breathtaking views and the serene atmosphere made it the perfect getaway. The rooms were well-kept and luxurious, albeit the hot water wasn’t perfect, but it didn’t dampen my spirits after a day of adventures. The service was attentive, particularly from staff like Ate Lourdes, and I really appreciated the convenient shuttle service to nearby beaches. I found the dining experience delightful with a variety of delicious options available. However, note that it is slightly distanced from the busier areas, though that only added to its tranquility.

During my stay, I appreciated the spacious grounds and lovely views, but the resort itself felt incomplete and somewhat underwhelming considering the price. While the friendly staff made our stay pleasant, the unfinished facilities and limited dining options left much to be desired. Overall, I would say it has potential but needs improvement before I could recommend it wholeheartedly.
