Your Guide to the Guest Friendly Hotels in Puerto Galera
All the guest friendly hotels stated in this list are located in Puerto Galera, along or within walking distance Sabang’s nightlife and girly bars action with one the exception: the Badladz Resort (which is just a 150 PHP motorbike ride away). These establishments are all very popular with like minded visitors so you won’t have any hassles bringing back a guest up to your room at night as long as you make sure she has some proper ID with her. All offer great value for the money and good service while the rates themselves can greatly vary anywhere from budget to 5 star luxury.
As far as Puerto Galera’s nightlife goes, Sabang is the place to be. You’ll find around 6 or 7 girlie bars (often self-described as discos) along the main drag with anywhere from 30 to 50 dancers each and numerous smaller bars along the beach. While the selection is much more limited than in Angeles City, being near the ocean is a big plus since Puerto Galera has some really nice beaches and excellent diving opportunities to offer for those also looking for daytime activities. Getting here from Manila by bus or mini van takes around 3 hours (boat included).
Girl I picked up in Sabang Puerto Galera bar back in my room
A hotel that is considered guest friendly, bargirl friendly or girl friendly simply means that the establishment will allow and won’t charge any extra to take back an unregistered guest up to your room. Quite a few hotels in South-East have a bad habit of adding a “joiner fee” to your bill and these can cost anywhere around from 10 to 25$ a night depending on their policy. So if you unknowingly book a non-guest friendly hotel and plan on taking a lady back up to your room every night then you’re going to be paying a lot more money unnecessarily or worst outright denied her entry. I have taken the time to e-mail them all personally to make sure about their policy and have given their reply with the hotel description.

Location
Located right on the beachfront and just a few minutes walk to the naughty nightlife
Review
The Atlantis is one of the better guest friendly options in Puerto Galera. The resort is built up on the hill side just along the Sabang beachfront, grounds are immaculate with beautiful landscaping scattered throughout, all the tropical plants and trees are meticulously cared for everyday by the gardeners. Most of the rooms are located at higher levels while the restaurant, bar and dive shop are located right at the beachfront.
The Atlantis is particularly appealing for divers who want to enjoy some underwater activities during the day time. They have a very well run dive shop and 90% of the sites are within a 10 minutes boat ride. Once the sun goes down the girly bars and nightlife are just a 5 minutes walk away. Entire staff are warm, friendly and professional.

Review
The Badladz Beach Resort is a great option for those who want to experience a more relaxed and chill atmosphere during their stay in Puerto Galera with a private beach right on their doorsteps a bit outside of the Sabang nightlife area. Facilities include a swimming pool, great sunbathing lawn up front with loungers and hammocks overlooking the bay and a great Mexican restaurant. Staff and owners on location are genuinely friendly and very professional.
Location wise, Badladz is about equal of distance from nightlife of Sabang and White beach. This is the only property in my list that does require a 10-15 mins trike/motorbike ride into Sabang. Highly recommended for those who don't mind the ride into Sabang at night!

Review
Lalaguna Villas Luxury Dive Resort is located on a tiny strip of sand in a quiet area of Sabang about 10 to 15 minutes walk from the pier and nightlife. Resort is modern and you can notice directly that a lot of money has been spent on the facilities, rooms vary in size but are all of a very nice standard. Keep in mind that Lalaguna Villas is built up a hillside and while most of the facilities are on the ground level, some top level rooms can be a steep walk to climb up to. Facilities include a pool, sunbathing area, open air dining area, dive center and cocktail bar.

Review
The Manarra Seaview Resort is another of the newer properties that have popped in Sabang recently, it's located a bit outside from the main drag so a great when you just want to relax away from the crowds in a peaceful ambiance. The look of the place is quite Mediterranean, definitely a nice place to stay, panoramic views seen from the restaurant and some of the higher level rooms over the sea are stunning. However, as there is no elevator this comes at a price of about 100 or so steps. Rooms are quite big, smallest starting at 40 sqm. The restaurant and staff are 1st class, pool and bar were also great with comfortable loungers and towels. Overall very good for the price as long as climbing stairs doesn't faze you out.

Hotel Amenities:
Location
Located dead close to all the action just a short 2-5 minutes from the beach and nightlife
Review
The Mermaid Resort enjoys an ideal location close to the action but just far enough from the noise so you can get some peace and quiet during the night. It is steps away from public and private transportation (trikes, motorbikes) if you want to explore the better beaches of Puerto Galera such as White beach. The service is top notch with very clean and well equipped rooms: Safe, Cable TV, Good A/C, marble bathroom, very reasonably priced mini bar that that allows actual use doubled by a nice balcony to sit and enjoy that cold one, Wi-Fi is available for free but was mostly slow in the rooms.
Common areas are very clean, pool is great, restaurant serves a variety of local and international cuisine that's good and always served with a smile, staff are all friendly and accommodating, The owners also run Mermaid Diving if you want to do some daytime activities. Overall hard to find much to complain about the resort for the price, be aware the hotel is located right next to the main road so you will hear motorcycles and cars pass by.
Guest Friendly Policy
Guest Friendly policy reply by Mermaid Resort: "Mermaid Resort’s accommodation is basically for double occupancy. If ever you will check-in alone and later you will have a companion, there will be no extra fee for that. However, if there will be a 3rd person in the room, there will be US$10 per night extra charge".

Review
The Mermaid Resort is a small and very affordable eco-friendly hotel with just under 30 rooms. Located is very good, right on the seafront in a quiet area near the end of the small strip of sand that makes up Sanbang beach. The resort, while not new has been completely renovated over the past few years and the new owners have done a really great job.
Rooms have a homey feel and are cozy and clean. The space and the furnishing are really good for the price. The swimming pool, bar and restaurant are all at the beachfront so it's a great place relax and enjoy the soothing sea views. The staff are very friendly and attentive to the needs of their guests.

Located on the Hillside just 5-10 minutes from the girly bar area of Sabang
Review
The Oriental Sabang Hill Resort is a friendly and well appointed hotel nestled along the hills at the very edge of Sabang beach. There are quite a few steps to negotiate before reach the resort but that effort is rewarded with stunning view of the ocean and surrounding island, vibe is very relaxing, lots of greeneries around, every room comes with a private little terrace with table and chairs from where you can enjoy the views.
Pool is small but really nice to have during the hottest hours of the day, restaurant and bar are good value. In terms of negative feedback, the free breakfast is a bit of a joke, just coffee with toast and jam so you'll most likely have to order a real one if you hungry. Water pressure is not great but other than that very little to complain about, good value for money for the views alone.

Review
Sabang Oasis is a friendly little no frills 2-star resort with just 12 rooms, located a short 2-3 mins stroll from the shore and a few alleyways away from the main drag and nightlife. Rooms are simple but clean and well maintained, all the basics are covered: There is a queen size bed, fridge , cable TV, free Wi-Fi, safe and air con that open up on a big shared balcony.
No restaurant served food on site but the staff will be happy to order in anything of your choice, all the bars and restaurants are really just a short walk away anyways. Overall a nice little resort with limited facilities but offering clean rooms, a central area, good service in quiet place.

Review
Seashore Beach Resort is location at the quiet end of Sabang beach just a 5-10 minutes walk from the bars and nightlife of Puerto Galera. The seashore has undergone a series of renovations over the last few years adding some newer bungalows and a swimming pool to their already existing facilities. Rooms are basic but comfortable, all the essentials provided besides the lack of a room safe for your valuables. Depending of the floor you can enjoy a small terrace/balcony outside with a bamboo sofa and table.
Facilities include a nice and refreshing swimming pool opened from 9AM to 9PM daily and a restaurant with a choice of interior or exterior seating right on the beach. Prices are reasonable, staff are both friendly and efficient. Only negative real negative points besides the lack of a room safe was the super slow wifi. Some of the standard rooms also could do with a refurb otherwise not bad value for money.

Review
The Steps Garden is a beautiful, Mediterranean-like family owned resort that is made up of a collection of stand alone bungalows and villas that have been spread through the hillside. Standard rooms are not as fancy and a bit more old fashion than the suites but all come with a porch/balcony equipped with table and chairs where you can enjoy beautiful views over the bay and surroundings.
Very nice little pool/bar, restaurant and common areas. Keep in mind you'll be getting a bit of exercise if your bungalow are at the top level since are about 100 steps all the way up. Staff are very attentive and always willing to help. Restaurant is good but a bit pricey. Otherwise all-in-all, good value considering the rate for a 4-star resort, awarded the TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellence.

Review
Scandinavian Divers is located on Big La Laguna Beach which is a 10-15 minutes walk from Sabang's wild nightlife and girly bars action. I have no idea why this place is called the Scandinavian divers (Now renamed Scandi Divers) as it's owned and ran by an American guy.
Rooms are very clean and comfortable with A/C, Satellite TV, mini bar, WiFi and a good point to mention, the shower never had any shortage of hot water. There is a Bar, pool and eating area down stairs plus another one up stairs, named the Sky Bar which is also open air giving you options to chose between plenty of sun or shade with Music, TV and a Pool table, just great place to relax and chill.

Review
As you first arrive by boat in Sabang, the 1st thing you to catch your attention will is that weird castle at the top of the hill. Welcome to the Tropicana Castle Dive Resort! I really liked the uniqueness of this hotel, most intriguing aspect is it's architecture with lots of wooden furniture and marble wooden furniture.
Most of the facilities are outdated and in need of TLC, The pool however is nice and clean. Medieval theme continues in the rooms, with large four poster bed, old world furniture and big marble bathroom with shower. Location is very central to the nightlife in Puerto Galera.
