    One of the double bedrooms has faulty air conditioner and would be good to improve some of the toilets - sink in the family room with 4 beds and room 1 has water coming through the roof when raining

    Staff was very accommodating. They arranged our boat for island hopping, served nice selection of dinner, helped booked a body massage service and van transport. Beds were also comfortable and clean

    - Room service meal choices not varied or enough (no list/menu). The view shown in the photos posted was taken a walk away from the hotel we stayed at, so it's not right outside of the hotel. - Location is not good for looking for nearby restos/kainan, pasalubong (30 mins by tricycle to travel from-and-to those places)

    - Staff very caring.

    Jane is friendly, hospitable and very accomodating to our needs. We love the eco friendly kubo design with AC esp for summer. It's 5-10 minutes walk to the pick up for snorkeling and can also be driven by car. You can also order food but make sure you bring cash since it's remote.

    The local villagers were exceptionally friendly and went out of their way to assist us in arranging tricycle and dinner upon our late arrival. The room was clean. We particularly enjoyed the stunning beach view right outside the guesthouse. Highly recommended for a peaceful and pleasant getaway.

    The location has not many conditions, as it is far from everything, without commerce, transports, or places where to rent scooters or bicycles. Fortunately, the family has lended me, their own scooter, for a few rides, which I really appreciated when I needed to go to the nearest village to use the ATM machine or purchase something in the local market. There is noise from roosters just next to some rooms and noisy works in the nearby hotel. The beach is very dirty of plastics. In a range if 10 km, there is only one restaurant, 10 minutes walk away from the resort. The nearest farmacy is 10 km away. For a solo traveller is difficult to find other people to share the boat tours, as the place still does not have a lot of tourists. The welcoming familly tried always its utmost to find some solutions for all these inconveniences.

    The disponibility of the welcoming familly was great. They were really kind, helpful, always trying to turn the stay the better possible.

    The location was at a very secluded area from the main city. The accommodations were not very good, infact we were facing issues with basic necessities such as washrooms which were outside the cottage and were very small and dirty. The washroom which was attached in one of the family cottage had ants and garbage in the shower. The breakfast was served cold everyday and overall it was not a nice place to stay. Even we couldn't use the Wifi as it wasn't recharge and because the location was so disconnected from the main city, there was no network.

    Location was accurate on waze, if you think you're lost after following waze, you're in the right direction. It's a beachfront property right beside other accomodations. The caretaker and her family were very accomodating and helpful if you need other supplies for your stay. Do manage your expectations, this is not a 5 star hotel, but it is decent and clean enough.

    During weekends the neighbours might be loud due to the love of karaoke ;)

    I put the 9 not for the cottage, a little basic, but for the very kind host and his family. He has his own boat and did the Island hopping very well and at a affordable price (I was alone). Thanks him I had 3 great days and this was for me more important than the accommodation. The cottage with 2 rooms can be good for a family. Nice surroundings too.

    This is a unique experience close to nature that you don’t get everyday. The bamboo huts are well maintained.
