Guest Reviews

• Stephanie (8/5): Very good - Love the beachfront location it gives. The room is huge and spacious with a well equipped kitchen, a great sized bathroom with hot shower. They also have a little tub outside where you can soak up. The sunrise is amazing! Check out my photo! The bathroom is a bit too dark, maybe they could add a light bulb for those who prefer it to be a little more brighter. I read a lot of complaints about it not being air conditioned, but to be honest, I don't think it needs to be. The sea breeze and fan is more than enough to keep you cool. We came around the end of April, and discovering that Siargao weather is not really that hot after all. What we did not like is it seems to be a bit scary at night as there was only 1 guest other than us and it is located in the quiet side of Siargao, around 15 to 20 minutes from General Luna. There was a CCTV, but it is in the kitchen and I guess if it has audio, they could hear everything, which also means a lack in privacy.
• Tamara (7/5): Nice cottage but beauty is not everything - It is a really nice beachfront cottage with a beautiful terrase. The first thing when you get to the beach from the cottage was huge amount of trash and i went to the receptionist and ask for sacks to clean it. I would expect them to say we will arrange that but no. The cottage has protection for mosquitoes and other animals but not really 100 %. Through the door can easily come insects. The bed is not comfortable. They provide you a blanket, i had to ask for a sheet to cover myself because it is really hot inside. They should provide another fan not the one directly over the bed, because the fan goes in your head. I had problems with ears because of that. The start was not really ready to help you with questions. They cannot arrange anything for you. They tell you, you go to General Luna. I would expect more from receptionist. At night you cannot sleep because of the music and people screaming in the middle of the night.
• Julia (10/5): Exceptional - Perfect Beachfront Paradise! This beach bungalow was absolutely stunning! Waking up and seeing the ocean directly from the bed was a dream come true. The atmosphere was super relaxed, and the outdoor area was perfect for chilling – a comfy hammock right on the beach, soft sand under your feet, and the sound of the waves all day long. Everything was clean, cozy, and exactly what you need for a peaceful getaway. If you’re looking for a beautiful, laid-back place by the sea – this is it! I’ll definitely be back!
• Anna (6/5): Beautiful view, basic accommodation, clean but basic. - Beautiful view from the room Kitchen is on equipped, there was not even a glass or a cup to make coffee or drink a glass of water from. Had to ask for that at the reception. I wasn't planning on cooking but if you rent a bungalow with a kitchen I would at least expect the basics in the kitchen. The whole bungalow is super dark and no table or anything so if you have to work i would not recommend this accommodation. The bungalow isn't entirely closed, when I was there the wind was onshore and makes the bungalow as windy from the inside as it is was outside. The good side of it is that you have a natural fan but it also disturbs the peace and quietness a bit, aspecially at night. Surfingwise it is a great location, close to the boats to some breaks in front and in between Salvacion and Cloud nine.
• Natalie (8/5): Very good -
• Jasmine (9/5): Superb - Great services. They offer a private boat service to surf sports directly from the property (even available in the early morning). Stimpy's, Rock Island and Bumee were all only a 10 minute boat ride from our door. Boards are also available for rental. Direct and private access to the beach where you can watch the beautiful sunrise. We loved that it was a bit away from General Luna (15-20minute bike ride) so we managed to avoid the tourist crowd. The property is located on the main road so it does get quite noisy during the night when bikes and trucks drive past. The shower does not drain all the water so there are quite a few mosquitos in the toilet.
• Kazac (10/5): Exceptional - The location is perfect for both, chilling, watching the sunrise and socialising, it's also close to Ocean 9 which is perfect for beginners and experienced surfers. Wonderful staff will look after you. Big thanks to Pitter for being great manager and cheerful companion:) Love the place!
• Giacomelli (10/5): Exceptional - In front of one of the most beautiful beach in siargao. Conveniently located near general Luna but very quiet. Place to be. Super nice design of the rooms. Cozy place Only two bungalows and one is nearby the road. Be ready to be waked up from street noise. Restaurant is very very slow to serve customers
• Kamil (10/5): Absolutely amazing! - Great private villa with magical view and beach. Friendly and very professional hosts!
• Sergei (8/5): Very good - The landlord is very friendly and caring, responsive. The house is a wonderful place to relax. Breakfast is included in the accommodation. The owner offered to use his motorbike to explore the island. The house is far enough from the city. And there is no way to get to the city except by bike. In bad weather, living can be a little uncomfortable because of the wind in the house. During my stay, the house has never been cleaned. They changed my bed linen when I asked on my own.
