I have fond memories in this lovely hotel. Lovely because of its gardens, swimming pool, restaurants,and ballroom. Visited Davao to attend the wedding of a relative and stayed in this hotel with my cousin. We booked a standard room with twin bed; we were billeted in the old building. The rest of the buildings are old actually because this hotel... More

Stayed here during the MiceCon 2013 and not so happy with it. Food quality is missing and I could say that the head chef is quite arLocation is the only thing that is good for this hotel.rogant. Location is the only thing that is good for this hotel.

I stayed here last month for a business trip, I found the place relaxing and quiet, rooms are spacious, clean and comfortable. Location is very nice, nice sea view and picture perfect pool area. some "miss" items - not so friendly staff, breakfast closes at 10AM so it is not good for sleepy heads like me. will I stay there...

Correct map position for Waterfront Insular is shown properly on Google maps. JP Laurel Ave, Davao City. By the water. Food here is excellent, pool looks nice. Small beach area. Try the lunch buffet. On the pier nearby is another restaurant, otherwise its some walk to other choices. You can walk to the pier for Blue Jazz resort. Also there... More

The room was outdated, with peeling flooring, a dirty, bathroom floor( which flooded after showering), and the food was average, at best. The last straw, for me, was being told that I would be charged 62... More

I am torn between this hotel and the Marco Polo. The rooms here are nicer, and larger, than the Marco Polo. Also this hotel has a lot of land that is beautiful, which includes walking trails and a private beach (although you can't swim due to pollution). It has several bars and restaurants, including a unique restaurant out on a... More

A perfect choice for business and pleasure. Our suite was just a few yards from the sea so while my husband had several meetings here, I enjoyed sitting on our patio watching the ships, boats, divers, and ferry slowly pass by. Good AC in the rooms, bathroom was superb. Both my husband and enjoyed our walk along the pier and... More

After 15 years, I'm back at Davao City. Of course, I had to see the classic Insular Hotel which is now Waterfront. The place is uniquely serene, perfect for relaxation. This is my first stop at Davao City, on my way to another classic resort- Pearl Farm. I felt quite nostalgic, memories pouring in when I first stayed there late... More
