Very basic room with a comfortable bed. But definitely overpriced for what you get. Breakfast was simple and basis. There were enough choices to pick from. Covered parking was nice since it was raining.
I recently stayed at Samba Blue Water Resort in Olongapo City, Zambales, and I’d like to share my full experience. From the peaceful beach atmosphere to the accommodating staff, it was a stay that truly stood out — both for its strengths and for a few areas that could be improved.
The moment I arrived at Samba Blue, I could tell this wasn’t just another commercial beachfront resort. It had a laid-back, local island vibe that immediately made me feel at ease. The entrance was welcoming, check-in was smooth, and the staff made me feel like a valued guest from the start.
I stayed in one of their rooms and it offered a good balance of comfort and nature. The space was clean, the bed was comfortable, and the room had the essentials I needed for a relaxing beach getaway.
The sound of the waves in the background and the breeze flowing through the resort made it easy to unwind. If you're someone who enjoys a more ”back-to-basics” island experience, you’ll probably love the rustic charm.
The beach area is the real highlight. The shoreline was clean, and there were enough shaded areas and cabanas to relax in. I loved that the resort maintained a peaceful, non-crowded vibe, even though there were several other guests staying at the same time.
The pool area and sun deck were well-maintained, and I enjoyed the acoustic night setup they had on the weekend — it was a perfect way to end the day with some live music under the stars.
They also offer water activities like jet skiing and banana boat rides, which add excitement if you’re in the mood for adventure.
내가 찾아가는 길은 혼자서 베낭메고 갔기 때문에 좀 복잡했지만 차를 픽업하면 쉽게 갈수 있다. 외관이나 시설은 오래되고 노후하지만 바다에 바로 인접해있어서 언제든 해변에 나갈수있는 장점이 있다. 가족여행 오면 아이들은 모래장난으로 시간이 잘 가고 작은 풀장도 있다. 음식이나 물, 음료는 외부에서 반입이 허용되지 않아서 리조트 내의 BAR 와 RESTAURANT 을 이용해야한다. 세븐일레븐 편의점 까지 100미터쯤 걸어가야 한다. 식사는 대부분 300-400PESO 사이에 즐길수있고 밤에 칵테일을 마시며 바다구경이 좋다. 다만 벌레와 모기가 많아서 대비하는게 좋다
Nice staff especially the ***** Woman.
However the Owner is asking ridiculous prices in cash if you wanna extend. While if you just extend it online its way cheaper. This isn't smart in my opinion.
And keep in mind that there is a *** bar in the building. So if your allergic to noice find another place. Also pool is closed. I don't know if permanent. Wifi is fast.
