I did like the stay, this is mainly list of things where the hotel could improve, so it would be a 9 or 10/10: When its raining, there is a big 15cm deep puddle on the access road, which covers the whole width of the road. The etablisments that are using this road should come together to fix the issue. Manpower is cheap in philippines. The table in the room is not comfortable to work on laptop. My shoulder started hurting. A small ergonomical 1 Person working space inside would be nice. Mosqitoes outside in breakfast area. A spray will help and the mounted fan also helps a bit. When they are cleaning the room, they seem to let door open, always had 1 or 2 mosqitoes inside the room after cleaning. There is some space on one of the walls. A small kitchen work space with some storage and some equipment to prepare cold meals would be very nice. The door of entrance and bathroom is not well insulated, you can see light through and the noise from the neigbours comes through. It also decreases effectiveness of the aircon. There are some cheap solutions to fix that, and increase comfyness of the stay. Water pressure might be lacking, when someone else uses it too.

Of all the stays i had in philippines (9 in total), this was the cleanest one (including the bathroom). Breakfast was basic but good (some more options would be nice - not just rice or bread to the egg). Bed is comfy. Enough storage space for stuff. Everything was working. Shower is hot and enough pressure. Refrigerator. Helpful staff. The split aircon is silent and doesnt smell (i had a lot of dirty smelly aircon in my philippines stays...) nice garden. close to a nice beach. Drinking water station to refill from. Extension cable with several power connections available. TV has HDMI (if you wonder where to switch the input -> the barely visible buttons on the back right) Tips: rent a motorbike at one of the rentals (will be a little bit cheaper then let the hotel organize it). Noone cares on the island, if you have no license. you can visit all the islands attractions freely then. It was a lot of fun to drive around the island with several stops here and there. Everything is much cheaper in one of the other towns of the island - Santa Fe has tourist pricing.

There should be a door bell by the reception in case you arrive and the staff are busy in the other parts of the resort

Skott's is a boutique accommodation in the quiet part of Santa Fe. The accommodation is only a couple minutes walk to one can argue to be one of the best beach in Santa Fe. Uncrowded and clean. The accommodation exceeded my expectations with regards to room size and comfort, cleanliness and most of all the friendliness and accommodating staff. Special thanks to Liza & Jimmy who made us feel welcomed and goes out of their way to ensure our stay is very comfortable and relaxed. These two elevated our stay to a level that makes us want to return to Skott's Comfy Lodge.

The breakfast was the same every day, and while it was very tasty, by the last day of the stay, it got a bit boring.

Great hosts, always ready to help, and accommodate any reasonable request.

We had an exceptionally good and comfortable stay. Virginia and her staff were extremely friendly and helpful; the rooms are massive with super comfy beds; beautifully maintained gardens; inside and out were extremely clean; great and efficient laundry service and support in organising scooters / transfers / taxis; and all of this a 1 minute walk from a great and super quiet beach. Would absolutely recommend to friends. Great value for money.

Maybe they can give the guest a foldable chair that they can bring at the beach since it's not a front beach. But it's not a must, only a recommendation. ☺️

Our stay was really pleasant and the personnel are very accommodating. If you need laundry, they can do it for you. The beach is only a few steps from the hotel.

With only three rooms, this place is quiet. 3 minute walk to beach. What a lovely place!

TV didn't work when we got sick and wanted to stay in. Tour through hotel was bad. Driver tried to scam us by taking us on only two of the tourist spots instead of the 7 that we should have gone to. Only after complaining did the driver agree to take us to all the spots but he was tampo. Bathroom is way too small.

Great staff. Helpful. Very clean room and clean water.

A few mosquitoes but not too bad.

Had a wonderful four night stay at Skott’s. Lovely host and staff. Our room was large and really comfortable, with a nice sitting area/tv and an outside terrace. Wi-Fi was decent. If you don’t mind walking, it’s 10-15 mins to the ferry terminal, and 25 mins into Santa Fe. It you want to explore the island, a motorbike is a good idea. We got ours from the hostel next door (500 pesos/day).

Not much to complain about.

My wife and I booked into Skott’s Comfy Lodge from Dec 22nd to Jan 3rd. We liked it so much we have decided to stay an additional three weeks. If you like quiet, an exceptionally clean place, and welcoming staff, this is the place for you. Virginia (owner)has gone out of her way to make us feel comfortable and even invited us to partake in New Years celebrations with her family. The beach is a five minute walk and scooter rental can be arranged. The wifi is also exceptionally good as STARLINK has just been installed. Wifi speeds are now regularly over 120 Mps. This is a great place for both short or long term rentals if you are looking for a quiet place to chill away from the traffic and noise. We would definitely recommend this as a great place to stay and would not hesitate to return if we ever returned to Bantayan Island. Dan and Grace. Canada

The only negative was the terrible Wi-Fi, but I do believe by the time this review is posted the Starlink will be installed to correct that issue. I sat next to the equipment boxes as I used my laptop in the office where the owner allowed me to hardwire connect to her internet.

The owner and staff are wonderful. The bed is comfortable, your partner can move around, and you don't notice at all. Aircon is perfect, water is hot and plentiful. The entire place is very clean and keep up daily. The breakfast is very nice and is enjoyed on the covered front porch. The short walk to the beautiful beach also takes you past, and to, other resorts with multiple dining options. The location, which is a little hard to find at first, is close to the port and Santa Fe. The walls are solid concrete making is very quiet in the room. Many activities as close as next door. We went island hopping and really enjoyed lunch on the virgin island.

The comfort, excellent staff, and Mrs. Virginia’s outstanding service surely contributed to a positive experience.

The bathroom was a bit tight, considering I'm a small person. Once shower is turned on, water splashes directly toward the toilet even if I tried changing angles. The water pools, and you'll need to keep changing the floor mat if you're iffy about it. The ceiling light placements are weird. I wish the ceiling lights were warmer. Fluorescent lights just change the overall feel of the room and warmer lights could have helped made it comfier. The blanket was very thin (it's a matter of personal preference). I just prefer a thicker or weightier blanket for comfort with great air-conditioning 😅 Cigarette smoke gets inside the room despite the closed door and windows. Experienced this 2 days straight and this came from the room beside ours (and the smoker was on his veranda).

Walkable to Santa Fe beach. Everything was new, with a large room, large bed, refrigerator and hair dryer were a plus! Staff accommodated request for early check-in asap.

Although the rooms are big, the bathroom is pretty small and everything gets wet from the shower. Also there's no shower gel / shampoo.

Nice big and modern rooms.
