Momarco Forest Cove

Very nice place in a forest. The staff are very kind and helpful. Good money for relaxing in a quiet environment. Our breakfast was served under a very big tree with lots of birds humming. All meals are delicious and beautifully served. I recommend this place for couples, family, friends and a group reunion.

We thought the room we reserve was within the hotel for its price. We discovered later on that it was a simple room, no TV, no hot shower, no intercom, and very far from the main lobby and resto. Dismayed, we call the front desk thru cellphone but i took time before someone answered. We inquired if we can transfer to better room. Then the line dropped. We called again to request a transfer. No one answered. So despite the distance, we just walked back to the front desk to request. A few meters from the desk, we decided to call again, and as we approach the desk, three staff were just chatting, ignoring our call. Wat if the call was an emergency. We are about to upgrade our room and the staff was ignoring our call. If only it wasn't getting late we couldn't have just moved to another hotel.

We are a family of 6. Stayed here overnight with my Mom (Senior Citizen) and a nephew (who is PWD: Person with Disabilities). Me and my sister are 'Balikbayans' who travelled from London, UK. This stay was a bday present for my mom. We have chosen this hotel for peace and tranquility as the website says! I booked the '2 bedroom villa'. Obviously i read the accommodation details and it states that it was 'Senior friendly'. As soon as i saw the accommodation, there was the last 10 huge steps before you can reach the villa! My mom struggles to reached the last 10 steps. So i requested for a changed of accomodations in the main hotel building. We were so tired after arriving from a day trip. So we settled for an early night. However, little did we know, that the tranquility and peace was short lived! We were awaken by a loud noise, people shouting and probably drunk. It started around 10pm till 3am. We politely asked them to lower their voices, as my mum was having a rest and recuperating from a day out. Also, my nephew (PWD: Person with Disabilities) has been deprived of sleep. And the rest of our group (including myself who travelled all the way from the UK) - got no sleep at all! Obviously the walls are not noise proof - as we can hear everything! I was hoping that the hotel staffs will tell them off as they were disturbing other paying guests. I will NOT and will NEVER recommend this HOTEL.

great buffet breakfast --delicious dinner -- hidden gem in Rizal __Calm and very into nature --fantastic views at every point --the piano player in the lobby was incredibly talented, and the front desk was very friendly and informative. Highly recommended!

our family stayed for 2nights in casita unit during the holy week Pros: - huge resort, relaxing ambiance - around 2 hours away from Manila - spacious outdoor parking space - friendly staff - room rates are reasonably priced, including breakfast - live band during our stay - playground - hot/ cold shower Cons: - outside food not allowed - reservation was not able to modify our stay dates, good thing the unit is available - limited choices of food at the restaurant; even menu cards are not presentable. - lack of manpower (resort staff) during Holy week but too many ojt/ trainees around - Our pre-ordered dinner taken by their ojt was not relayed properly to the kitchen staff.. Food was cooked in a hurry at the time we picked it up. - buffet breakfast time at 6:30am but the restaurant opened at nearly 7am. - few food selections on snack bars and sundry stores; most items are unavailable. We are hoping they can offer more options since we are not allowed to bring in food. - room/ casita can be improved, stained bathroom glass, clogged sink.

This pet-friendly forest resort boasts of a wide swimming pool with a deep-end (4-6ft) and a shallow-end with some fun sprinklers for kids and kids-at-heart to enjoy. A man-made lagoon with falls surrounded by greenery offers shade from the sun while enjoying the water and some instagrammable shots, if you like. Momarco offers daytours and it has many cottages to accommodate guests. Despite this, one does not get a sense that the place is overcrowded. The pools are well-maintained. At night, the bar (1 of 3 restos) becomes a karaoke place where overnight guests can hang out, have a feel of community, and take turns singing while drinking booze. I thought that was a nice touch. Breakfast at the main restaurant is good and filling. Their arroz caldo stands out for its taste. Our dining experience was underwhelming, though. Food was served quite simplistically (no sides to make the dish look good or more inviting) and taste was average. The staff were courteous and helpful. Momarco has a small spa "hut" which externally looked more like a karaoke place. They also tended to play instrumental pop music loudly that I had to request for the volume to be turned down. They lacked storage for their towels and blankets and a relaxing scent was missing. That said, their signature massage was surprisingly good! Given the uninviting exterior and ambiance, I did not expect to get one of the best massages I've ever had. But I did. Ask for Belle. In the morning, we explored the property and found many delightful things. The property runs through a stream, but the area around it is undeveloped. Its forest is a DENR protected area but can be developed crudely for some recreational hiking. They have a basketball court and a tennis court. I did not inquire, but hopefully, they have a trainer on call, should a guest want to play. Their website mentions that they have a zoo but maybe because of the maintenance cost during the pandemic, most of their animals had already been donated. We stayed at the hotel and found the room to be spacious. The comfort room is also spacious and modern but lacked towel/hanging racks. Momarco is a huge resort with wide open spaces and many nooks and crannies to relax and commune with nature. For its price, the many items for improvement can be forgiven.

I liked the expansiveness of the place with the green landscape. The swimming pool is huge. My children never got tired of swimming in the pool. Buffet breakfast has a lot of choices bt taste was not good for some. They should provide a longer line for hanging wet clothes outside. I liked the Casita where we had our own detached unit with the luscious garden outside.
