Hof Gorei Beach Resort

Hof Gorei Beach Resort is a beautifully landscaped resort in a tropical themed setting nestled in a quiet and secluded hillside terrain of lush foliage southwest of Samal Island. The Resort got its unique name from a picturesque, small dairy farm in the Alps of Salzburg, Austria. What started as a mere hideaway for the owners of the Resort, the Kroelle family, with only a few nipa huts intended for close friends of the family, eventually transformed it into an exclusive beach resort for travelers and tourists.

Since then, the resort has become one of the popular destinations for water sport activities such as, scuba diving, snorkeling, jet skiing, kayaking, banana boat rides, para-sailing, beach volleyball, island cruises, sightseeing tours, and even fish feeding at the floating wharf. There are also board games such as chess, scrabble, or darts which are available upon request.
