Melronz inn

Nice place, right on the water and perfect for a quick dip. About 1km to a few restaurants and the 7/11 but there is a restaurant just over the road. Lots of tuk tuks - easy and cheap to get around. They organised our whale shark day which was quite amazing. If you’re a confident swimmer hire a GoPro! The island trip was okay. Quite windy when we went and coral wasn’t great. The waterfall was definitely worth a visit.

Super friendly and helpful family run Inn. Recommended !!

We loved the family who owned or managed it!!! We loved the sunrise from the deck and looking at the stars from the balcony! We loved walking to nearby local restaurants, the access to the water, and the proximity to the whale sharks and a waterfall.

Having said the above, it isn’t an easy road to walk! Lots of tuk-tuks though!

가이사노몰이 도보로 5분일정도로 가까웠고 새벽에도 체크인 맞아줘서 좋았어요. 수밀론 섬 들어갈때 지프니를 800peso에 불러줬어요. 에어컨이 시원하고 도로 안쪽이라 조용히 잘 수 있었어요.

온수가 안나오고 와이파이가 없는 것. 맥주를 사려고 가이사노몰 인근에 숙박한건데 정작 가이사노몰엔 맥주가 없었던것. 몰근처에 세븐일레븐을 알았어야함.

We need water continuously!

Scarcely need water frequently!

Evelyn our host was extremely helpful and made us feel very welcome. She and her husband organised all our tours and other needs (laundry, food, transport and shopping). There are many other resorts around here but if you’re looking for a balance of service, location and value then this is probably going to be your best option. The mall is 6 minutes walking distance away. There’s a BDO bank there and another ATM machine inside.

Was there only to spend the night before going to see whale sharks and then to Moalboal sardine run. Can recommend this itinerary to anyone, certainly beats getting up at 3 AM to get from Cebu. Property satisfied all our requirements: nice, big room, quiet and effective air conditioner (same model as in my home), hot water running without issues, soft, comfortable beds (memory foam but it's fine), quiet location (heard only soothing sounds of the ocean). We slept very well. Didn't visit the beach or turn on the TV so can't comment on that. Owners are very nice people and they can organize excursions to whale shark watching / sardine run. However, a bit of advice: in reality the only thing you need is transportation. The activities themselves are very well organized and you don't need to book ahead (it's not even possible) - just show up early enough to avoid waiting for hours. We arrived at whale shark site at 6 AM and got #127 in the queue, we waited for 1.5 hours for our turn but it didn't feel like a long time at all, since there are places to eat and drink coffee, souvenir shops, etc. Anyway, the only thing you need is some way to get to these places, so you can book a taxi yourself, it's not hard, or hotel owners can do that for you, they quoted us the following taxi prices: 5000 PHP to get to Cebu or 3500 PHP to return to the hotel (this includes drive to the whale sharks, then to Moalboal, then to Cebu or hotel). We decided to rent a car from Cebu airport for 1 day instead (drive to Oslob, sleep in this hotel, then the same itinerary), it costed us 2900 PHP (2000 for car + 900 for 3 hours late return, you might avoid the latter) and worked beautifully. Do mind that driving in the Philippines is crazy, but for me it was fun.
