Reviews of Martins Ocam-Ocam Cottages

The location was stunning, a very serene place to stay! A really nice quiet get away into nature. Host was really friendly and helpful!

Not many accessible food options - but you are paying to stay out of the way so that was expected. Roads to get there during rainy season were rough, so trying to get a rental scooter through would be difficult. Rooms were quite small.

Amazing place right at the beach.

Very quite place , beautiful beach You can have tours organized by jayson and its amazing

Its better to have scooter to go arround If you need to go to airport or come from coron try to find your own transport or public one otherwise prices are crazy from this hotel to airport its 2500 minimum...

Beautiful, secluded, authentic. Getting away from other tourists! Great place to do it. Got to know some locals and had memories for life. Im not a karaoke singer, but they may be responsible for having broken me in... A Filipino custom. Lots of nature noises at night may seem unsettling at first, but its totally safe. And as someone who gets eaten alive by mosquitoes, I applied my OFF at dusk and hung out outside all night and didnt really get bitten (May)

I guess Im tall, in an Asian Country? Huts aren't built for 6'+ people, but you manage. Host is around, but our communication could have been better, which can be tricky with limited cellphone services in remote areas.

Martins has a great asset being on the side of the bay, makes it exclusive with beautiful gardens. Jayson goes out of his way to help people reach their objectives and dreams . Went on a lovely sightseeing trip using his boat..

Some people might not like the fact that the shower is not finished yet ( may 2025) For me, it’s not a problem

The place The staff The bed and pillow The clean bathroom

Only 1 fan for 2 bed

The location, the view and the wild experience itself.

Nothing

Super friendly and helpful staff, you essentially have a private beach, with very cute restaurants and food choices (albeit somewhat limited in food options but very good and decent prices). Black island tour is worth going to for the beautiful schools of fish and sunken wreck snorkeling.

Worth to travel a bit further! Very nice, with nice quiet beach cottages. The place has only few of them and owner with the crew great! The even gave us ride to Coron city after our stay. Thank you Martin!

None

If you like a remote Place , is this the Place to be. The Owner Cliff and his Manager Jason are fantastic people. We got every Day a fresh coconut , and if you have a Problem they try to help you and solve it. You should know that the huts are very Basic, but very nice. The Bathroom was always clean.

Located on the stunning Ocamocam Beach, the three wooden huts provide you with a glimpse of how early human settlers lived in these areas. Although the small wood and straw hut only has a bed, a fan and a light, it's sufficient and leaves you with the wish to discover the area and enjoy the beach. It may not be suitable for more than a night or two if you are a fussy traveler but it's an experience on its own, for sure. The host, Mr. Martins has a great personality and is very much involved in the local community so everyone around knows him. He is there to advise and help with any inquiries. We even arranged to visit the Black Island through him and that was one of the highlights of our Philippine expedition. Great authentic restaurants around so food was not an issue.

The beach is great for those that look for experience that is outside of the regular tourist route, i wish i could stay their for 2 weeks

It is a secret paradise in Corona. Just wou!

It's a beautiful tranquil place to really rest and relax for few days. The bungalows are right at the beach with beautiful views and night sky full of stars:) it's a very simple bungalow, but clean. Same goes for shared bathrooms. There are mosquito nets & you will definitely need them.:) The location is great if you want to be surrounded by the locals. There is a nice restaurant at the beach that serves breakfast, but few others are also accessible by foot or scooter. It is however far from Coron (something to keep in mind if you planned any expeditions ..) Another star goes to the staff. Jayson, the property manager, is such a kind and genuine person!:) we had a lot of clothes to wash and dry and he offered to bring them to his mother to wash it for us for few pesos and even hang a rope behind our bungalow, so we were able to hang our towels etc. The owner Cliff was also kind enough to drive us to the airport early in the morning for 3000 pesos. We appreciated it, as the place is remote.

It is more a note for fellow travellers to know what to expect: - This is not a luxury stay place. There is no running water, so you will need to use a good old bucket to wash and shower (and bring some soap with). -The way to the place & the property itself is also dark at night, so you might have to use a flashlight/torch on your phone. A big advantage of it is however that you can see a lot of stars at night. -The sea level at the beach is low, so it's harder to actually swim, but you can soak in the sea nonetheless :p

The location is the best especially if you go to Black Island.

Comfortable hut, almost ocean front. Cell service was good. Comfortable beds.

Mosquitos in the bathroom were horrific. They should have some kind of screen

Thanks to Jason who helped us organise a boat to Black Island as we wanted to camp there the night before we stayed at Ocamocam B Martins. 2500-3000PHP for the private boat per direction. Can highly recommend a night on Black Island: about 500PHP pp to overnight on the island. About Ocamocam Beach Martins: all you need but basic - roof top bungalow with mattress on the ground, fan, bedding and towels. Shared bathroom is clean and big except that they don't have running water yet. Staff is very friendly and makes you feel like friends!

Shared bathroom doesn't have running water (yet) but the place is clean and not smelly at all. No wifi (I think) but Globe had really good signal at the location actually.

Jason and brothers were awesome. Black Island a stand out was beautiful great snorkeling

Beautiful place close to nature and beach. Very helpful and nice host Jayson. Thanks

Really nice hotel located at the OcamOcam beach. You can not find 5star facilities, but during night we were lulled to sleep by the sound of the tide and waves which is much pretty for us. Bungalow is small but beds are perfect. All is done in nature-friendly style. Jason helped us a lot with boat tours to the Black island and dugong watching as well as with transfers. Just a few meters from bungalow and you are in a boat racing towards the charming dugongs. Strongly recommend!

Perfect location, very friendly host.

Quiet small cabin
