The Funny Lion - Puerto Princesa

The selection at the breakfast buffet was good. There were enough dishes that I liked for an adequate selection, and how much should you eat anyway? :) Perhaps another fruit option, but I enjoyed what was available. The banana bread was especially good, and I particularly liked freshly made fried egg over toasted raisin bread. There was a swimming pool and a bit further along the beach front, where they let you borrow paddle boats and kayaks for free. There was also a lifeguard in attendance to help you. In front of the hotel at reception, there were bicycles you could borrow, also for free. There were nice touches like free cookies with the turndown service, free afternoon snack, free juices in the room's mini refrigerator, and a friendship bracelet at checkout.

What an amazing stay at the Funny Lion, Puerto Princesa ❤️ The staff were unbelievably, fabulous, caring, & attentive from arrival to departure they just couldn't do enough for us ❤️. Our room was very clean & spacious, with an extremely comfortable bed & pillows, breakfast & coffee were lovely, need I say more!. If required, food was served throughout the day from a good menu choice. Great value cocktail happy hour, fabulous, don't miss out🍹 If staying 1 / 2 / 3 or like us more nights, we would definitely recommend this wonderful hotel. Hope we can return in the not so distant future 💕, love to each & every staff member (too many to mention), you are ALL a credit to this hotel 😘, Janet & Glenn (217) UK

Everything. The hotel is well-appointed, classy, and very comfortable. Food and service is excellent. The staff is great and service is personalized. The hotel can arrange transportation for you by taxi at a very reasonable rate and their accredited drivers are professional and trustworthy. I loved the complimentary welcome snacks. It was such a relaxing place to stay. Even the pool was heated at night.

I would highlight the staff! Anthony, Daniel, JP, Jeb and I could list everyone we have had connection with. They are super nice proactively looking for how they could help you. The food is amazing, the French-Vietnamese restaurant on the top is a gem. The rooms are super clean and well equipped. The pool area is relaxing and beautiful. The only thing you have to be prepared for is that you cannot swim here in the sea, but we have been prepared for that and for us it was not a problem at all. It was difficult to leave. Highly recommend!

If you have never felt like you've been spoiled before then spend some time at The Funny Lion in Puerto Princesa, Palawan. This community consists of a team that goes above and beyond to make you feel so special. Our stay was so wonderful and we will treasure amazing lasting memories from this resort. You arrive as a tourist and very quickly you feel like you are part of the family; the staff have a very uncanny way of remembering all their guests’ names. Upon arrival you are greeted by so many smiley faces, a cool cloth soaked in essential oils to wash your face and hands, plus a drink to hydrate which is always welcome at the end of a travel day. Our team member, JP, took such good care of us right from the beinging. He showed us to our room and explained the resort to us very thoroughly. At this resort, you receive complimentary fruit drinks and fresh fruit on your first day. You also receive a pool bag and bandana which you get to take home with you. Every day you get two large bottles of drinking water, coffee/tea which you can make in your room. Each evening, they deliver a little treat (cookie) right to your room … what a wonderful way to end your day. The beds are super comfortable, bathrooms are spotless, the rooms smell great, and the wifi works pretty darn good. The entire staff are professional, kind, and so accommodating. If there is anything you would like, just ask. They will provide your request if it is within their means. The GM of the hotel, Mike, and restaurant manager, Junel, are very approachable and welcome questions or inquiries which is something you do not see in many businesses. The breakfast buffet, which was included in our room price, was very good with a diverse menu and we enjoyed our meals overlooking their beautiful pool and the Sulu Sea. Food and drinks are reasonably priced so no need to leave the resort. There are complimentary kayaks for you to float around the mangroves and a floati
