Buena Vida Resort - Malapascua Island

Ordered a delicious vegan pasta al arabiatta. But when the table was put, there was cheese on top. That was okay for me, but still on the menu it was considered vegan and on the ingredient list it did not mention cheese. That was a little weird.

All about the resort Buena Vida is fabulous. Personal attention to detail and hospitality is the second to none. When my wife, who followed a vegan lifestyle, we were very worthy of the gestures made by the staff for us. The rooms are beautifully furnished in the quiet jungle setting. In addition to the accommodation there is a wellness spa, yoga corner and breakfast dining area. One of the best places where I've ever had the luxury to stay.

We stayed at the resort for 5 glorious days and found everything to be perfect! The staff is welcoming, friendly and extremely helpful; the rooms are beautiful and very comfortable; the spa is... And what really to celebrate is their ability to vegan, you serve meat and milk for breakfast, but there are many vegan options such as vegan pancakes, fresh fruit and overnight oats. The staff will also make happy lunch packages (large if you are on a diving trip). I could not recommend this place very much. I know I was just one night back and dreamed of coming back one day.

I and my friend went to the spa for a few massages. We choose oriental massage and facial treatment. They only use organic oils and promote environmental friendliness. Every sex and sexuality is also welcome. We both had a great time in the spa. The staff is professional and welcoming. For the Philippines of course you can get a cheaper massage for 1/4 the price, but not with this environment.

I ordered a tasty vegan Arabiatta pasta, but when it was brought to the table, it had cheese on top. It was fine for me, but according to the menu, it was labeled as vegan and the ingredient list did not mention cheese. That was a bit odd.
