SEE-KEE-HOR Cafe and Hostel

The properties are authentic and unique. The rooms are beautiful wooden huts. The room we stayed in had a lovely seating area outside with a washing line and a decent fan inside. We ate in the restaurant and the food was amazing. Staff are happy to help and offered to arrange motorbike hire for us.

Whilst the huts are lovely, because they are wooden they are very open to the elements. In the dorm people had found spiders and geckos as the sides of the building you can literally see the ground out of. The first private we were put in had no lock on the door, when we asked the staff about this they assured us it was safe. We explained we weren’t comfortable not having a room that locked and they moved us to another private. No mosquito nets are provided. The area is very noisy with dogs, roosters and other animals.

Cool houses amazing view

The Bungalow was cutie and rustic

We didn’t have water multiple times (shower, sink, toilet) I took a shower on the shared facilities which wasnt the end of the world (5 min walk through the bushes) but I paid for a private place. The shower wasnt strong enough AND JUST COLD WATER. Also the shack seemed to been built over an ants nest or sort of it because the bathroom was full of them.

Starting with the positives, the location was amazing as it was right on the beach, which made it very convenient to enjoy the beautiful views and take part in water activities. The food was also exceptional - I particularly enjoyed the local cuisine they served. Additionally, the fact that there was a scooter rental service available on-site was very convenient and added value to my stay.

However, there were a couple of drawbacks to my experience. Firstly, the accommodation itself was quite basic and didn't provide much in terms of amenities or comfort. Secondly, the staff didn't seem particularly interested in providing a welcoming atmosphere or being attentive to guests' needs. They were often absent, which made it difficult to get assistance or ask questions

The bathrooms are super clean and beautiful. The Cafe has really good food would highly recommend.

The rooms could use a make over and a cleaning (mostly the floor). My bed blanket (which is only a sheet) did not smell good so I changed it with another fresh one. That grossed me a bit.

the only good thing is the price

dirty. there is a dog that is always hiding under one bed. dark ans dirty. not really nice to meet other travelers. no common area. no toilet paper

location is next to nice beach and food is ok, not as good as made out, menu quite limited

On arrival the staff not welcoming, looked at me as if I wasn’t supposed to be there when I had a booking. i then ordered something off the specials menu, and when the bill came I was charged 70pesos more and was told this was the ‘new price’ even though it wasn’t on the board at that price - when I returned later it was a new price of 30 pesos more so I was charged more for no reason. Small bamboo hut that is open, no mosquito net provided so we were eaten alive, cold low pressure shower, no lock on door and loud with animals at night. not bad for the price but was looking forward to staying here due to the high rating and I do not think it is deserved.
