Puerto Galera Hostel

The Location and staff are to slow to serve and/or accommodate us while we stay

Good breakfast right on the beach. I liked My budget room across the road and the cheerful atmosphere on the street. Happy.

If you are expecting 5* facilities then here is not for you. However if you want pleasant clean good sized rooms, Friendly staff and good food this is the place. I spent 5 weeks at the resort convalescing. I found it to be a brilliant place to just chill out and relax. The resort, as described, is split into three sections, 1, Beach, where the reception, restaurant, bar, and typically rustic local style accommodation is situated on the beach front. 2, Garden, set about 100m back from the beach with solidly built accommodation on 2 levels. This pleasant setting is where the SPA bath is situated. 3. Villa, Set about 500m from the reception area with direct access to the beach. I was accommodated in the garden section. My room was airy clean and comfortable with air conditioning, fan and hot shower. The menu in the restaurant was varied with daily specials supplementing the standard. The food was good quality, well prepared and presented Be aware however that the resort changed its name recently so all the locals, including tricycle drivers still know it as Amami!

Although the resort is situated in an exceptionally low crime area, a lack of means of securing valuables/documents I did find somewhat disconcerting.

I love the coziness of this place

The distance from the beach and from the main Resort restaurant.

Spacious, private. Basic but just great for a beach stay. Staff were extremely helpful.

Photos seems promising and tidy but when we arrived, the rooms were not even ready yet. It was late when we arrived yet the rooms and balconies are dirty. The blankets are not the same as in the picture, it looks like we used a very thin curtain blanket. Lack of management, no one checks during check out. The jacuzzi was closed, the rooms are too far you have to walk 5-10mins. The beach front is smaller than what’s in the picture. The shoreline isnt smooth. Just different from what we expect. Of course the price was cheaper compared to others, if you are a group of friends would be fine. If family with kids might not be as comfy. I think the photos were old.

Friendly

Did not know how far some of the rooms where from the beach

Loction was good if you want to be out of the way or hustle and bustle. Food was good. Staff were pleasant. Change in circumstances was accommodated. Feel is rustic and natural

Site was recovering from a recent tropical storm so difficult to know typical look and feel of rooms but smell was of significant damp througout room, bathroom had damp and mildew, shower had continual leak meaning bathroom was always wet. Damp affected a good night sleep and left coughing each morning.
