Good fresh foods/seafoods

Poor facilities

Hosts were amazing!!! Incredible hospitality provided which you just need to try by yourself! Since you arrive you feel like a part of the family, home-made seafood daily! Everything is possible to arrange, island hoping tour, land tour, food, motorcycle, wifi, everything. Accommodation as such is pretty basic and nothing for fancy people, but kindness and service of the hosts just made my stay unforgettable.

When full of people it's not private and you can hear literally everything from the next door. Toilet and shower a bit rough, but you can expect this since it's pretty remote location.

Accommodating hosts! Ma'am Hemmy and sir Steve are very kind and friendly. They made sure I enjoy my trip and they helped me arrange the tours without a hassle. You can tell that they're truly passionate about making their guests have a good stay in the island. The food is super delicious (although some dishes were a bit sweet to my liking). For only 250 pesos, their seafood dinner and lunch are really worth the price. The room is spacious enough. It didn't have a lot of stuff inside other than the bed, a bedside table, lamp, and AC. They offer free wifi which is a lifesaver as there is no cell signal in the island. Other things to note: they have a number of kids and dogs in the homestay

The shared bathroom had hooks where you can hang your clothes but so little space for toiletries. Not sure if the faucet wasn't working but their helper had to fetch water by the pail for me. Its door was also difficult to lock, so keep this in my mind if you're picky.

Food

The host was very friendly and help us to plan our island hoping, give us some very very nice advice. Staying with their family was really amazing, we had a great time in this amazing place, thank you so much.

the people and their service .... great food ❤️

there's no water in the faucet ....
