Secluded 4BD Beach Villa, Fast Wifi, Pet Friendly

We had a great family stay at Villa Banana for three nights. The house was very clean and truly beachfront, just a few steps from the shore. The beach was clean and kid friendly, with shallow water even during high tide and calm waves. The caretakers were one of the highlights of our stay. They were very kind and helpful, and we availed of their cooking and cleaning services for PHP 1,200 per day, which made the trip feel like a real vacation. The house is spacious and comfortable, with aircondition in all rooms, including the living and dining areas. There are four bedrooms with private bathrooms, plus an extra powder room. The bathrooms were modern with hot water, and parking was easy with space for three or more cars. Beach chairs were also provided and were great to have. Communication was smooth and easy, and Charles was kind and proactive throughout. The home is also pet friendly, and we brought our two cats who had a great time and felt very welcomed. Overall, nothing but good things to say about Villa Banana, and we would definitely book again or consider their other homes in the future.

For improvement, adding towel hooks in all showers, an outdoor clothes drying rack, and a small fridge inside the house for beverages would be helpful, especially since the kitchen is outside.

We weren't able to stay in Villa Banana due to electricity problem, but the host was able to offer us an option, which was to stay at Villa Mango. The host was very responsive and easy to talk to. The property's structure is really wonderful, from the furnitures to its care tacker. It really is a place where you can relax. All of us had the same feedback and would definitely comeback. Do not book this place for 2D1N because once you get there, you would want to extend your stay 😅!

Sadly, it was hit by Typhoon Kristine, so we weren't able to see the beauty of the beach because trash was swept onto shore. Overall, the beach is not that bad.
