Tepanee stands on a small hill that rises up from Logon beach and our territory goes down to our own private sandy beach, an area isolated from the rest of the island from where it’s possible to admire breathtaking sunsets in an area secluded from the rest of the island and where we placed beach umbrellas, sunbeds, a gazebo for massages and our lovely Chiringuito beach bar. In addition, in the hill adjacent to the reception is our panoramic Amihan restaurant. The name TEPANEE comes from the name of the Polynesian frangipani plant, a tropical tree that graces our gardens with fragrant flowers of various colors. Historically, the concept for our resort followed a philosophy of low environment impact. Most of the building materials are natural and local: wood, bamboo and stones used for the main structures, roofs made of a typical straw named kogon. The buildings are almost invisible from the ocean, even if many are built right on the seaside. Opened on December 8, 2008, Tepanee in the beginning was consisted of 6 independent double cottages and one building of two storeyes with 4 triple rooms. We have grown, and can now offer you: Deluxe cottages: independent buildings with a superb ocean view, the best in Malapascua Island, facing the sundown.

Lovely resort which has a marine life protected beach. You can snorkel with harmless sharks, thanks to Andrea’s tip, the helpful owner. Service was excellent. Food and drinks were good and affordable, but for some reasons there was no fresh fish available during our stay. We had to go to the local night market to find it. Definitely a place to check out/stay at.

We came to Evolution Resort on April 7th evening after 2 long days traveling and without our luggage and our diving equipment that did not arrive to Manila with us. The team that was updated by our agent (WildDive) on our situation were waiting for us with a warm and very friendly welcome , they made sure that we will have some new shirts, diving equipment and everything needed for our stay and diving until we will get our luggage. They made all efforts and were in touch with our agent, the airline company and who ever needed to make sure that our luggage is found, safe, on the way to the Island and finally to our room – just amazing! We stayed 5 nights in an AC DBL room that had been great with a nice view to the sea. The dives and specially Monad Shoal and Gato Island were WOW. Food was great and the WHOLE team were AMAZING, everyone did his best to make sure that we will enjoy and we really did. We faced the edge of an unexpected Typhoon including closing of the island by the coast Guard which held us for another day but the great team, again made everything needed for us to feel good. We want to thank everyone for the hospitality, professionalism, solution to every problem and creating a wonderful feeling for every day of our stay. Highly recommended also for a long stay for those who want to relax and forget everything and of course the dives are amazing, special and beautiful. So Big Thanks to Matt and the whole team and hope to come back soon.

Due to a last minute decision, to sqeeze in a few nights at Malapascua Island, the better hotels like Tepanee were already booked out. Pro: + top location at the cliffs at western end of Bounty Beach, just a few minutes walk away from the restaurants + friendly and helpful staff + spacious Deluxe Suite w/ ocean view, overlooking the entire Bounty Beach while sitting on the balcony + fair room rates + arrangement of private car transfer from/to Cebu Airport on request was reliable and at a very reasonable rate +/- simple but ok breakfast Underwhelming: - very sparsely furnitured "Deluxe" suite - not bedside lamps and tables, not bedside light switch, no amenities other than a little shampoo bag and 2 t-paper rolls, kind of careless - bathroom wasn't clean at arrival, crooked bathroom door hinge. Bathroom door cold only be closed by application of force - during low tide very shallow, not swimmable beach Not the fault of the owner is a misleading foto, posted by a fellow traveller, that shows a swimming pool, which looks very nice. The only problem is, that it is from whatever Blue Corals Hotels elsewhere on the planet. But defo not from Blue Corals Malapascua, which neither has a pool, nor pretends to have one. I got trapped by this foto, too. Bottom line: Hotel ok for 3-5 nights, when the price is right, but not sure if I would book again.

Sumptuous local & international cuisine, budget-friendly rooms with sea view, fun-filled recreational facilities such as bar, disco, music lounge, billiards and pool table, internet cafe and scuba diving with pelagic thresher sharks and manta rays in Malapascua Island.
Over a month of travelling around Philippines and this has been by far the most amazing and our favourite place to stay, even though it was during typhoon. From the moment we walked in, we had a very warm welcome and were treated like part of the family for the duration of our stay. The rooms are beautiful and very well thought out, all have balconies or small terrace where you can relax. The main restaurant/bar area is also incredibly welcoming with comfortable tables and beds. There is a pool table, football table and various board games to keep you entertained. Huge choice of food, so you really will never be bored of eating here. I honestly can't praise this place enough!!

Angelina beach accommodation has built in a quiet and relaxing part of the island of Malapascua.We have 2 new rooms of the area of 40 sq.meter. Entire room is well furnished, floor is made of wood and has a sea view balcony. In the beach we have umbrellas and sun chairs to relax too. We have all goods and comforts for you to offer on your tropical vacation.
My husband and I booked at Angelina at the recommendation of a friend. First of all, the night we arrived, we literally walked out of the ocean from our boat onto the beach in front of Angelina. We dropped our suitcases and asked for menus at the restaurant. After traveling for 24 hours, all we wanted was wine and food. The pizza was delicious! (Needless to say, we ate there at least three more times that week.) From the start, the staff was always attentive. They walked us to our room after dinner, where they had already moved our bags and turned on the AC. From then on, our room was always clean, and the staff was always helpful. Our Asia room was lovely with a seating area and balcony. The shower was great, except the drain would clog. We would definitely return.

I stayed there for six nights in the budget room. This hotel is quite a distance from the famous Bounty beach (15 min walking distance) where the most dive shops and restaurants are located. Hotel staff delayed my check-in by almost 3 hours from time scheduled by hotel in Agoda (10:00 a.m.). By the day check in, I was arriving at 10:00 a.m. and being told that room was not ready to check in. After few hours back to hotel I was still being asked to wait for the room as according to hotel staff check-in time in Agoda.com website was stated incorrectly. Room was outdated, broken down, and dirty. The furniture in the room was stains and there was a terrible damp old smell. Pictures of accommodation do not reflect the reality of it at least for budget room. The biggest downside is the water because they use "salt water" for tap and shower. As I understood the water they provided via the tap and shower is actually salt water filtered from the ocean as it is very salty and had weird taste especially had weird taste especially when you’re brushing teeth. They only provide body soap and shampoo and towels for toiletries. There are lots of hidden costs that may confuse you if you are travelling on budget. There is aircon in the room but you are allowed to use it only for extra cost (and this info was hidden in Agoda.com page). They do provide water only at the reception or at the restaurant for ₱20, so you have to have your own empty bottles to refill yourself. Breakfast was very mediocre with an additional cost ₱160. I do not advise to stay in this hotel as you can definitely find better options for this price. Transfer they provided is for around ₱2,500 one way for 2-3 persons. You can do it cheaper as following: Taxi from/to Mactan–Cebu International Airport to/from Cebu North Bus Terminal, PHP (₱): 230-250 Bus from/to Cebu North Bus Terminal to/from New Maya Port or Old Maya Port, PHP (₱): 200-230 Ferry from/to New Maya Port or Old Maya Port, PHP (₱): 100
