Zia Homestay

The hosts were lovely and welcoming. They gave us fantastic recommandations for things to do, see and eat! The location is in a beautiful small town with a real community feel, with lots a great places nearby to visit. We loved the location and Zia’s Homestay!

Had everything we needed!

Nicely done rooms, even though very small and toilets were so tight. But there's hot water in the shower, and there's a water dispenser with both hot and cold drinking water. There are sitting areas outside, with electric fans, and in the garden. The kitchen is so well equipped and more than complete, there was even an air fryer and a blender. We weren't able to make use of it but it would have been nice to prepare meals there, especially considering there are at least two stalls selling fruits and vegetables nearby, a meat shop across the road, and the fish market is within walking distance. The homestay is centrally located in northern Siargao, with short travelling distance to Algeria Beach in the north, and Pacifico Beach and Magpupungko to the south. There is a nice beach, as well, just a block away from the homestay. There are also many eating places nearby, although most of them were closed at the time we were there. But we had good grilled dinners at Beshie's. We were taken around by Jonathan, one of the owners, in his bao bao, who was a very able driver and tour guide. We were able to see many places in the area in just one full day.

Not the homestay's fault, but it's a bit difficult to get to and from Burgos. Public transportation is rare, so you are at the mercy of tricycle drivers who quote very hefty fares. But I'd like to return to Burgos, which is very, very laid back compared to General Luna, and I would want to book in this homestay again.

nous avons tellement aimé cet établissement ! tout était absolument génial. Il y a une terrasse aussi qui est à disposition pour les chambres et qui offre une belle vue lorsqu’il fait beau. Du bon café, de l’eau chaude et froide. Tout était merveilleux et l’hôte et son frère étaient vraiment gentils. Merci beaucoup !

The property is located just as you come into the Burgos village, it's a very quiet and relaxed town with some good food places to eat (Beshies!) and everything is within a 5 minute walk of this homestay. The owner was there to welcome us when we arrived and the room was WAY bigger than we thought it was going to be. The bed was HUGE and comfortable and had an extra bed that we didn't use. The aircon worked well and we also loved having the fan too. The room had a fridge freezer and water dispenser and a kettle to make your own coffees. The owner let us use the washing machine and there's also a 'communal' kitchen to use (we didn't use it). We were very happy with this stay and would definitely come again.

Couple of small things- the WiFi was abit iffy and went out at times. The bathroom had gaps to the outside so we had a fair few bugs in the bathroom. And the room was lacking an indoor sink. Apart from these small things we highly recommend this homestay and we thank the owner for a lovely stay 😃

Everything was perfect. The room were nice, and I had hot shower and aircond for a really good price. The terrace and garden are lovely ! I felt at home and it was really cozy. All of this for a very good price
