    - Front desk/information is very accommodating - Swimming Pool is clean - Cave is fetid. Ammonia odor is present - Food is good. However, we waited for an hour for our lunch & when you request an additional order, it take some time like 30 minutes. - The sea, it is not white sand as you expect from other beaches in the island. - Entrance fee is too expensive for the amenities & inclusions. - Crew service, I'll give them satisfactory rate. We ordered additional food after our lunch there. Those foods were just for "something to eat" after swimming or whatsoever. We waited for almost 2 hours. We made a follow up & we found out that our foods were already ready for quite a while. No one informed us! - Overall, nothing else in Ogtong aside from the cave that gives extra attraction, that's all.

    Staff are not good at handling problems and customer concern. 200+ for entrance fee day tour Cave was small but beautiful Pool was not that really enticing to swim like its not maintained well or what. But its 9ft deep. Access to calm swallow beach is nice Ambience is greeny vs other resorts

    It's a small underground cave. You have to pay 225 pesos entrance fee per one adult to enjoy all their amenities. You can swim by the beach, or their pool, you can also dine in their restaurant. Entrance fee is kinda pricey just for the cave.

    If you will only visit Ogtong Cave, the entrance fee of Php250 is not worth it. Better to have your accommodations in Santa Fe Beach Club. Hindi na kami nakapasok sa cave sa dami ng turista. Most of them stayed for so long just taking pictures. So for us na hindi naka check-in sa Sante Fe Beach Club, 250php entrance was an overkill. So for you to make the most of the entrance fee, there is a nearby Santa Fe beach na open naman to public. White sand rin naman. They also have pools pero when we went there, ang dumi na ng tubig even if it was around lunch time. We tried their food, for me it's 3/5 too. We visited it last May 2022 so it's a peak summer month.

    Nice place. For the quite up there price of 225 php you get entrance to the cave (which is not accessible separately), pool and beach. Nice place

    Old rooms, reception is not helpful nor has good customer service skills. Too expensive entrance fee for day use. Restaurant is not accomodating.

    We went there to check out the cave as it was a "recommended" place to do in Bantayan. My daughter who's turning 14 in 2 freakin' days was denied entry as they have policy of not allowing anyone below 14 to go into the cave. We went there as a group for crying out loud. How are you expecting people to like your location when you're denying entry? And don't get me started on your Php225 fee, does it go directly to the personnel's pockets? Does the owner even know that even if you don't do anything inside their compound? Lastly, if you have little kids with you, just stay away from here if you don't to see them disappointed.

    Ogtong Cave is their selling spot to enjoy. The beach is just ok. It is different from other beach resorts. Their resort is in the rocky spot.

  • 3/5 Patrick De los R. 1 year ago on Google
    a bit pricey if you’re only after the cave. They have exclusive access to their own beach and a pool but I doubt people would go to ogtong for both of those. (the beach can’t match others around the area, and the pool is - for kids I guess. The cave is cool though. pictures don’t do it justice

    We just had a day use part of the tour. Nice place for family and friends. Good garden view to roam around. But the cave was crowded that time when we visited.

  • 4/5 Philip B. 11 months ago on Google
    Good place if you wanna explore capturing photos in a dim light area, the water and lightings go well with your pics. Cool waters, though i think it is stagnant.

    Ogtong Cave was one of our stops for our Day Trip. Was curious with this location because I wasn't able to go here on my first trip to Bantayan. There really is an underground cave inside that resort. You just pay a small amount and you can use the facilities. The cave, the pool etc. The cave is a small one with lukewarm water. They closed off a portion so that people will not go further because according to our guide, the cave runs so much deeper and they have not discovered the end. There is also a lifeguard who looks over just in case. There a staircase that will lead you down and there are big smooth rocks where you can lounge in the cave if you want to stay longer. What I also liked was there was a long flower wall near the entrance with lush flowers. Used it as a photo wall. This was late April.

    Ogtong Cave Resort nestled the very famous Ogtong Cave Water in the pool inside the cave is somehow cold. Perfect for dipping and chill. Children are not allowed inside the cave. Lifeguard is always around. Entrance Fee P285 The Pool is nice however no shade that can protect you from the sun. You also have access to the beach. They also serve meals and drinks 1 Tricycle ride (P70 from Bantayan proper)

    Ogtong Cave is one of the gem in bantayan and a must visit especially their cave. Unfortunately, for their swimming pool the last time we visited it is really hot and lots of chlorine and their is a saying that the water from the swimming pool came from the cave itself. But we haven't assured it yet.

    Super friendly & accommodating staffs. 3-in-1 Resort cave, pools, beach. Breakfast not included although, if you look at the positive side, it gives you the freedom to choose on where to eat💖

    Sadly we did not anjoy this place for several reasons na nasayang yung entrance fee namin. Closes at 4:00 PM . Swimming attire strictly enforced samantalang the pool is filled with all sorts of impurities including sands. The beach was not also good for swimming, very muddy. And when you want to go to their front desk for inquiries/ clarifications, you will encounter the signs- wet clothes not allowed, which for a place of water activities, di ba ? how odd. Hindi ka pwedeng pumasok sa admin building pagkatapos mong magbayad kung basa ka na. Also, 14 yrs old and below are not allowed inside the cave. This could be for safety purposes BUT we've been to other caves and our kids were allowed with adult supervision. I could have scored this zero kasi we we're not able to use any ameneties kaya lang walang ganung option 1 as a rating is too much for the stress we had in this place . My Senior mother, all 3 children and all my teens were so dissappointed . All 12 of us were not able to enjoy any in this place since in most areas may restriction to one or two of our companies and seriously it felt like we were scammed.

    Crystal clear water. If you've been to Enchanted Cave in Pangasinan you'll get the idea. Avoid during weekends coz this little cave could get crowded. In my opinion, this place is not for those people who are claustrophobic.

  • 3/5 Kris E. 1 year ago on Google
    it's a nice place, but they lack in many areas, we arrived at 1:30pm to be told the restaurant cut off for lunch is our arrival time and it does not open again until 5pm, they have early cut off times for swimming pool 5pm, beach is 6pm, cave is 4pm. This resort seems to be run for the convenience of staff not guests. For the price of rooms, I would have expected fresh milk offered for our morning coffee, but again only creamer available. Very few guests and I understand why, this resort needs to drastically improve to be successful. Rooms are average, bed was comfortable, but the 2 other places we stayed on previous nights were cheaper and on par with this resort.

  • 4/5 Lindley M. 1 year ago on Google
    A good place to enjoy if you want to experience a cave, swimming pool, and a beach in one setting. They also have a restaurant if you want to grab a bite.

  • 4/5 Russell D. 1 year ago on Google
    Visit for the cave, the beach and swimming pool are not worth the trouble. It's good to visit in the afternoon when the weather is a bit hot, it's refreshing to take a quick dip in the cool water around the cave.

  • 5/5 Angel Lyka J. 1 year ago on Google
    We were there to swim and see the Ogtong cave, unfortunately we didn't book a room ( next time I will surely stay there). The employees were very accomodating, from the guard, front desk, even the lifeguards, who kept reminding us the depth of the pool which was surprisingly deep. Hehehe

  • 1/5 Hans W. 1 year ago on Google
    We visited as an outside guest for the famous cave. The cave is ok-ish for 5 or 10 minutes max. Quite small overall and not suitable for standing up right in the water, let alone swimming. The pool is a mess; full of dirt, sand and even saw a kid defacting in it. The lifeguard acts like a gestappo agent for not allowing shorts nor shirts. That rule seemed random as well. 10 Minutes later people were allowed with shirts again.. The beach is non excisiting; poured concreted staircase up unto a stone base near the water. It takes at least 50 meters to get even knee deep. The small stretch (~ 10 meter ?) of beach is full of dirt as well. The no pet policy is also a joke with constantly 5 stray dogs roaming around. The 225php entry is far overpriced for the non-quality and non-quantity of entertainment offered. For some reason there are a million of signs, in Filipino, Korean and Japanese, but barely in English.

    Natural waters inside the cave. Quite small and can only accommodate a few swimmers. Suggest you wait your turn since some of the tourists are rowdy and loud. The place has a pool with standby life guard. Beach here is a no go.

  • 4/5 Merrillinen C. 1 year ago on Google
    It would have been nicer if the pool is available for night swimming even for guests who checked in like us only. Swimming pool hours is from 8 am to 5 pm only. The cave is very nice also, which opens from 8 am to 4 pm only. But nonetheless it's a great place to stay.

  • 2/5 IzzlyProvoked 1 year ago on Google
    Their kiddie pool is dirty.. 200php entrance for a muddy beach and their oogtong cave aint that much impressive small capacity.. just fresh water but perfect for some couple to have some sexy time but impossible to do lol

  • 4/5 Dino Karlo T. 2 years ago on Google
    Ogtong cave is one of the best spots in Bantayan Island. The resort itself has a small beach, a pool, and the cave itself where you can swim as well. The only thing that I think is bad is the price to enter if you are not a guest at the resort. 200PHP is too much in my opinion. Should be atleast 150PHP below but it is still worth a try to visit.

  • 5/5 itsmejamlim 1 year ago on Google
    Great place. You can do so many things in one place. Very nice feeling swimming in the cave whete salt water mixed with cave water. Very relaxing and refreshing.

  • 3/5 Almario B. 1 year ago on Google
    Ogtong cave is great, actually. Ogtong cave only. Beach? dirty. Pool? somehow boring. Place? just usual. Price? not even worth it. They should assign a price for each swimming place. I only like the cave. There's even a diaper floating at the beach. So ogtong cave is good only if you'll go only to the cave.

  • 5/5 Mark F. 1 year ago on Google
    Came here just for the day, and we got in free since we stayed at Santa Fe beach club. The resort is beautiful, clean, and right by the water with their own beach. The cave isnt large, but is clean and refreshing. The pool there is clean and nice as well. They also sell Sebucha milk tea here as well. I'd highly recommend coming here, since there is much more to do here besides the cave!

  • 3/5 James A. 1 year ago on Google
    The place is amazing. A lot of trees which I really love about because it gives fresh air. The pool is big enough, the cave is small so it was crowded when we went there and only few minutes we get out from the cave because there many tourist want to get in to. You can also access to the beach however, there are garbages on the water and the current of the waves are a strong. So, we can't swim on the water.
