The serenity and natural beauty of the place are outstanding. All the staff are great! I forgot my laptop in our room after we checked out. I don’t have a local phone number in the Phil. They have only my Toronto cel. number which I use every time I go to the Philippines. On our way home after about 1/2 hour we left the resort, I got a WhatsApp call from the resort reception informing me that I left my laptop in our room. Kudos to all the staff @ The Farm at San Benito.

Breakfast is Terrible with lots of FLIES…!
It was a good start by welcoming us with drinks, well I have no problem with our room Narra Villa at Room 38 and Anahaw Villa Room at Room 25… from service to places to roam around it’s with distinct good qualities but for our breakfast experience It’s AWFUL an open area with lots of BIG FLIES, it’s so disappointing and disgusting because all our food the flies are swarming especially on our watermelon drinks & the way they presented the breakfast buffet is on a low key class covered with plastics, the way I paid for these two elegant deserve a meaningful and memorable breakfast… Why not use a secluded close door restaurant or area like ALIVE (restaurant) where you can enjoy a beautiful breakfast not only the breakfast place I’m complaining about but also the food I hate to say only the brewed coffee is good but the way all The FLIES flying around perhaps they’re (flies) had good day breakfast…! No need to post a picture ..! we stayed on Dec. 13/14, 2023.

The grounds are really still very beautiful and the treatments are consistently good! The staff need to put more attention on the public areas such as toilets in the restaurant and swimming pool areas. Otherwise, it is a lovely place to unwind.

Reconsider if you want to be served good food.
The resort is beautiful with excellent service from the staff. The cost of stay is expensive and would have been justified if not for the food. My wife is a great cook and i was vegan for 5 years. The resort is surrounded by fruit trees and vegetable garden and we could not understand why the vegan breakfast and lunch is so tasteless and so limited in choices. There are so many Filipino dishes that can be vegan and can be resourced from the resorts vegetation and yet it fails to provide the guests with a 4-5 star cuisine. We would rate the food from 1-5 to 1 and if they continue with the same practice, i would suggest to go somewhere else with a 5 star rating of the same price range.

Liked: Cleanliness
The rooms weren't too elderly and child friendly. For one, the stairs are awkwardly design whereby each of the steps is only half of the length and it alternates. Second, there is a risk of falling through the ledge. We were here one year ago. As compared to our previous stay, we find that the staff are a lot more particular about hotel policies instead of simple but warm hospitality.

Hi Darren, we have other room categories that are elderly and child friendly as well like Palmera Suites and Palmera Glass Villas. The Anahaw Family Villa as shown in the Expedia website is loft type set-up with stairs and may not be suitable for the elderly and small children.

Relaxing weekend in a serene farm
The whole place was calm and relaxing; the gardens were beautifull & serene; the room was spacious and clean; the free classes were great - tai chi, aqua fitness and mandala flower arrangements. Did not avail of the spa & treatments because they were too expensive for us. We were prepared for a weekend of vegan diet: some were great (the pad thai, coco jam on bread, vietnamese salad roll, curry); but, some were blah (buckwheat crust pizza, breakfast pancake).

I was looking for a place to relax and unwind and this was the perfect place! Super quiet and private, we loved our villa. 😊 Only things we hoped for were hot water in the pool, too cold for a dip in December. We ordered room service for dinner and we were only provided 1 set of utensils. The water jar in our room was also dripping. However, overall the stay was great and what we were hoping for. We will still definitely come back!
