A Paradise within the Metro”

I cannot think of anything that they can improve further; the hotel staff really went above and beyond to make sure we are settled in for our last night in Iloilo! From: - perfectly executed my surprise birthday dinner and cake for the boyfriend (even Kuya Guard helped keep the secret until its time for the reveal!) - free upgrade! - got the pool and the whole hotel to ourselves for the night! - even though we are the only guests, the staff made sure all the available facilities can be used! (music, pool, all lights are on) very cozy, very clean, and very relaxing! They even kept our bags when we had a last minute flight change. Kudos to Miss Quincy, Pam, and the whole team. A 5 star experience, indeed. :)

Service Extraordinaire ”

An oasis in the city of Iloilo. I’ve stayed in a number of places in Europe and North America, well known hotel chains such as the Marriott in Paris. The personal service we experienced from the staff of Urban Sands is extraordinary. From the guard, to the ground personnel and the manager Quincy, we received quality service. We had a great time and made our trip to Iloilo a memorable one.

A real gem”

Urban Sands provides a very relaxing resort atmosphere in the city. Rooms are sized just right and are equipped with the essentials: clean and comfortable bed and plump pillows, A/C, mini fridge, cable TV, and Wi-Fi access. There's a safe for valuables as well. The best feature is it's layout where all the rooms lead out to the resort style pool area which gives the entire place a very relaxed and tropical vibe. Breakfast is included as well and the selection is good. The staff are very warm, hospitable and helpful. The hotel is a relaxing experience by itself. I will not think twice about staying here again...and again.

An unexpected paradise retreat in the middle of the busy city of Metro Iloilo.”

This hotel resort is a hidden paradise that i didnt expect to be located in the city of Iloilo. Being in the hotel takes you to a paradise that makes you feel you’re in a different island. The ambiadn decor is so relaxing and the kids totally enjoy the pool. The staff are so friendly and accommodating. I would definitely comeback here always if I visit Iloilo. Be it for family and work related reasons.
