We came here to see whale Sharks and while that didn’t work out we fully enjoyed our stay here at Elysia. It’s walkable to the registration office, right on the beach and has a great pool. The property is well cared for and managed. Rooms are very clean and it’s nice to have a small table and stools inside. Front porch looks over the pool and has a drying rack for clothes. Restaurant serves fabulous food and the staff are all friendly. Should we come back to Donsol we would surely stay again. Salamat!

My wife and I stayed at Elysia for 2 nights in April 2024 with another couple. We had picked the place because of its proximity to the Donsol whale-shark watching, although we ended up doing other things instead while we were there. The resort is clean, the staff is friendly and helpful, and the food in the restaurant is good. The rooms are very small and simple, with minimum furnishings.

The room was clean but small improvements are required. Basics are missing like a bedside lamp, box of tissues, trash can in sleeping area, small desk. Airconditiong was noisy. The flat sheet was also the blanket which was disappointing. Add a proper light blanket. Need more hooks or shelves for guest's personal items. No kettle or tea/coffee. Need to pave walkway to the restaurant as it was muddy and slippery when wet.

Amazing gem - BRING CASH
Amazing stay! Super value for everything - I may have won the award for most San Miguel consumed in 2 days. Room was very comfortable and clean. Beautiful pool. Lovely beach. Amazing service. Must have the coconut ice cream - best thing. IMPORTANT TIP: bring LOTS of cash. No ATMs anywhere near and everything is cash only.

Great place to swim with whale sharks
We had a great stay, especially for the price, but the power went out a couple times. It would have been more inconvenient if it were during the summer when we needed the a/c. It was very close to the port for swimming with whale sharks with helpful staff, a good restaurant (we loved the shakes), and tour options. The restaurant had reliable internet so a lot of people just used it like a lounge, but there was no internet in the rooms. It's good to know they don't take credit cards, but there is an ATM nearby.

Family trip to Donsol
The place is quiet, clean with staff that were so friendly esp the one in the information area. It is a basic one story rows of rooms surrounding the pool but with easy access to the beach. Not much activity but its great for people who wants to go & swim to see the butanding. The restaurant serves good food but you get sweaty eating as the ceiling fans were not enough to cool you down. Same thing in the room, ac was in the coolest setting with the ceiling fan on the fastest setting (looked so slow to me) so on mid day I was uncomfortably warm. We were there 2 nights in May 20-22 so I guess the weather was really hot & humid. Early morning walk by the sea shore around 5am was cool & enjoyable with hardly anybody around. FYI- no phone to order or call front desk, no hot water for early coffee or tea. However restaurant is open 6am until 9pm.
