Guest Reviews
- Sead Jenma (8/5): ジュゴンツアーに行く前後は絶対におすすめ - レストランからのリバービューはとても癒された。
部屋にはエアコン1台と扇風機が2台あり、快適だった。室内はとてもきれい。洗面台などは高級感があった。
夜はとても静かに過ごせた。
朝食は美味しかった。ジュゴンツアーに行く日は朝食を包んでくれた。時間厳守で支度してくれていた。
ジュゴンツアーの送迎の桟橋が敷地内にあるので、ツアーに行くのに便利。
1キロくらい山を下ると小さな集落があるので、ローカルフードを食べたり、ドリンクを飲むことができる。 WIFIはレストラン周辺しか使えない。
敷地内は段差が多い。一番遠い部屋だったので、レストランのある棟までの昇り降りが大変だった。
- Bryan (8/5): Très bien, cadre reposant - Le cadre est magnifique, en plein milieu de la nature et offre une vue magnifique sur la rivière avec un beau lever de soleil visible depuis les chambres. Le personnel était adorable et les repas excellents. La communication avec la propriétaire était excellente. La proximité de l’aéroport est un plus. Un peu éloigné du centre mais le trajet est faisable en scooter (30/40min). Si vous arrivez depuis la ville le trajet est un peu cher (environ 2000 PHP). La climatisation dans la chambre ne fonctionnait pas très bien et mettait du temps pour refroidir. Le scooter de location proposé n’était pas super mais suffisant pour deux jours.
- Astrid (10/5): Beautiful views, great food, amazing staff and super close to the airport -
- Erika (8/5): Csak a folyó és te - Kilátás a folyóra csodás, de már csak az étteremből látható tisztán a folyó. A szobából a nagy,fák kitakarják. Az ételek finomak voltak, a személyzet kedves. Dugong túrára,mentünk és motort béretünki 1 napra. Nyugodt hely, csak a csend,a folyó és a madarak vannak. Reptéri transzfer 850 php volt (április) A wifi borzalmas volt. A szobában egyáltalán nem volt, az étteremnél általában működött. Kártyával fizetés utalással működött. Az utolsó kép a valós kilátás az erkélyről.
- Lilian (7/5): -
- Jellonek (9/5): - Sehr gutes frisch zubereitetes Essen, nettes Personal. Roller kann vor Ort gemietet werden. 160 ccm für 1.000 Peso. Shuttle zum Flughafen 800 Peso. Von hier kann man direkt Dugong watching oder Tauchgänge buchen die Abholung erfolgt direkt unten am Fluss ca 5 Minuten. es war extrem ruhig keine Hähne, Hunde oder Fahrzeuge. Mücken hatten wir auch keine dank der Geckos. Ich würde nächstes Mal eher die Zimmer mit Balkon und nicht die im Souterrain buchen da hier das Bad etwas fleckig und feucht war.
- хомякова (10/5): Отличный отель в джунглей! - Отличный отель вдали от шума и суеты города Корон! Огромные светлые номера , большой балкон. Брали байк в отеле и катались по острову, удаленность от города не смущала. Отличные завтраки! Пару раз ужинали в отеле, тоже все было вкусно! Хозяйка Джудит очень оперативно организовала нам шикарную поездку к дюгоням и черепахам! В общем, нам понравилось все! И территория и завтраки на терассе и персонал! Уже есть желание приехать еще!
- Marc (9/5): good stay in this hotel - The quality of the room, one of the best isolated from the philipino usual night noise (dogs, coqs, etc) that we experienced.
Excellent hot water shower and good facilities.
the host welcome and support alll went ok
- Madison (10/5): Amazing !! Would definitely recommend - I liked that it was close to the airport! The aircon worked really well and it had a really pretty view. Na
- John (2/5): Gérante désagréable et propos mensongers sur leur site - Gérante vraiment pas soucieuse de ses clients. Ils ne précisent pas qu’ils ne prennent pas la carte et vous êtes obligé d’aller dans un ATM avec pas mal de frais.
- Piotr (10/5): Super miejscówka. - Fantastyczna lokalizacja, przemiły personel, dobry kontakt z właścicielem, pomocny w organizacji transportu. Jedzenie bez zastrzeżeń. Brak uwag.
- Michimi (8/5): -
- Michimi (8/5): 静か癒しの宿 - マネージャーはじめみんな親切、綺麗だし食事も美味しい。
自然の中の一軒家的なホテル 不満ではないが、足腰の悪い人には階段の登り降りがあり、大変。
メニューに載っているが、実際は無いメニューが沢山。でも美味しかったので不満では無い。
- Chloé (10/5): Incroyable je recommande ! - Les chambres sont super confortables super propres et super bien équipées ! Étonnée de trouver ce bout d’hôtel au milieu de nulle part, c’était parfait !! La propriétaire est très arrangeante et super sympa !! Le manque de wifi m’a empêché de pouvoir réserver mes vols et plus aucun vol n’était ensuite bookable. Je recommande à l’hôte de passer sur starlink car le wifi est inutilisable.
- Henry (5/5): Poor - Nothing No wifi
- Adam (8/5): Incredible views and great base for dugong watching - Incredible views of the river and a lovely place for a quiet, relaxing stay (very different to Coron town). Large, clean rooms and a great balcony. Staff were helpful in organising airport transfers and the local boat trip for an hour to see fireflies and plankton. Very good base for the incredible dugong tours.
- Michelle (10/5): The stay was short but it was easy to get to the airport and over all very comfortable. - The dtaff was very kind and took care of us the whole staying.
- Andrea (10/5): Sensationell - Die einzigartige Lage am Fluss - insbesondere abends die fireflies zu beobachten
Das Essen war großartig
Der Service ebenfalls
- Nathalie (10/5): Petit hôtel familial absolument génial , je recommande ! - Superbe petit hotel niché dans la jungle en bord de rivière. Calme et quiétude absolue ... une vraie déconnexion : slow life
Petit déjeuner copieux et délicieux, bonne carte au restaurant et saveurs locales . L hotel peut vous organiser des activités diverses et on vient vous chercher en bateau au pied de l hôtel, au river pier ... un luxe de partir et revenir en bateau sur cette belle rivière avant d arriver à la mer :-) Rien .. tout était top !
- Henning (4/5): Aussicht vom Restaurant toll, Essen sehr gut, Rest gewöhnungsbedüftig - Ruhe und Natur, tolles frisches Essen Superior Zimmer wie Absteige, Badezimmer verschimmelt, Vorhänge stinken, stickig klamm heiss, nachts Spinnen, Kakerlaken, Gekos zu Besuch, Transportkosten (man ist angewiesen auf das Riverhouse) übertrieben
- Van Wyk (10/5): Our stay at Riverhouse - The view, the serenity and the friendly staff! They also had good wine! Close to the airport. N/A
- Levi (10/5): -
- Chloé (8/5): -
- Joanne (9/5): - The owner,Judith, is very welcoming and helpful in all situations. Don't be afraid to ask her anything. The kitchen staff were fantastic. It's a very peaceful location, away from hussle and bussle, overlooking the river.
It's 15 minutes from the airport, so perfect for a few nights. A car or motorbike is needed to see or do anything as nothing is in walking distance. But don't forget, Judith can help 😁
- Alice (9/5): prima - Super vriendelijk personeel, lekker eten en een mooie plek wel wat afgelegen, maar daar kunnen ze vervoer voor regelen We hebben gemeld dat de douche koud was, daar zouden ze gelijk wat aan doen
- Alexandra (10/5): Book it - great find - Beautiful accommodation with the most stunning view of the river. Staff were all lovely. Food was also lovely. I got a pick up from Coron and dropped off to the airport after in a lovely air conditioned car. Only thing I would say is you cant pay be card. I was able to pay by revolut though which was great
- Marie carmen (7/5): Rafraîchissement à prévoir. - Très bon emplacement, à proximité de l'aeroport et lieu très sympa dans la nature. Personnel souriant et serviable. Établissement propre et repas correct. Prévoir du cash car tous les paiements se font exclusivement en espèces (resto sur place y compris). Possibilité de payer par Wise ou Revolut (quand le réseau internet est stable). Un appareil à CB serait vraiment indispensable.
Établissement méritant un peu de rafraîchissement, les portes de la terrasse avaient du mal à coulisser et ne fermaient pas à clé. Luminosité trop faible dans la salle de bain et pas d'eau chaude.
- Priscille (10/5): - Amazing!! So peaceful and beautiful. Judith is the best host! Thanks
- Mariel (10/5): -
- Matthew (8/5): Nice and quiet with lovely views from the restuarant. Excellent hosts. - Breakfast was included and the menu was pretty good. An excellent view from the restuarant, it's lovely and quiet, beautiful green scenery and fresh air. Juditha and her Mother are excellent hosts and very helpful. It's a little out of the way but to be honest this can be a good thing. You can travel from here to the rest of the NE coast and the airport is only about 10 minutes away.
- Markus (10/5): - Sehr freundliches zuvorkommendes Personal. Ruhige Lage mitten im Grünen.
- Senthan (9/5): -
- Elena (2/5): Esperaba otra cosa tras las vacaciones - Las vistas del comedor y el desayuno incluido está bastante correcto. Sin grandes lujos pero rico. Me pareció en si un despropósito:
-Zapatillas de “cortesía” usadas y con pelotillas ( de las típicas blancas de los hoteles)
- Toalla del lavamanos con unas manchas rojas de sangre u óxido.
- Hormigas (muchas) saliendo del lavamanos hacia el espejo en hilera.
- Bastante suciedad en la habitación, no era una limpieza a fondo sino por encima.
- Obligación de pagar en efectivo y no disponer de datáfono para hacer pagos con tarjeta de crédito, y encima al no poder pagar con efectivo por ser la última noche y no tener, me puso mala cara ofreciéndome pagar mediante transferencia ( con coste asumido por mi) lo hice sin pegas ya que era la única opción, pero no se creía que se la había hecho porque no le llegaba la confirmación del banco y cuando llegó ya se relajó. ( a pesar de enseñarle las confirmaciones desde mi móvil). La dueña fue desagradable durante esta situación.
- Cena cara y de poca calidad
- Uri (9/5): I can't think why anyone would want to stay somewhere else - When you come to Coron and the area this is the best location if you enjoy nature and want to avoid the city noise and pollution. Birds may knock on your window to say good morning. The lively host Judith is there to help with everything. If you decide to take lunch there, the open restaurant can be tough at mid day with the heat and humidity by they provide fan which makes it tolerable.
- Joy (10/5): Quiet and peaceful place , great food , kindest staff! - It’s a 10/10 for us! This is our 2nd time visiting Riverhouse . I came last year with my husband and this time, we brought our 2 adult kids. The place is remote but Ms. Judith kindly organised a driver whenever we wanted to go somewhere. She also helped organising tours , and Riverhouse has the best cook!
Rooms are spacious, comfortable and has jungle feel with all the birds coming around . There will be for sure, a 3rd visit in the future! Thank you for the warmest welcome. Really nothing bad to say!
- Thomas Robert (10/5): -
- Maria Lina (5/5): -
- Jon (8/5): Very good -
- Aldin (10/5): Exceptional -
- Simon-pierre (10/5): Exceptional - The host was an Angel we where received so well! N\A
- Singh (5/5): Average - Beautiful place to be, but lots of bugs in the rooms, dinner was not great and there was a lot of shouting going on in the place. We were told the wifi would only work in the dinning are which we were fine with but it didnt even work there. It was a good place to be to go on. the Dugong trip though.
- Savitri (8/5): Very good -
- Erik (10/5): Super - Everything
- Tamsin (9/5): Superb - We stayed for one night in March 2024 and we had a lovely time, it was great to have peace and quiet after some busy days in el nido and coron. We took out a kayak in the day and it was one one the best spots as there was no one around and we got to see some great things. In the evening Judith organised for us to go out to see the fireflies and plankton, (we didn’t have high hopes for this as other places had offered this on other trips and there was nothing) this was a magical experience as again we were the only ones on that stretch of water and we saw both very clearly. Only thing we missed was fishing, we had seen some mention it in previous reviews but we were unable to go out but we went on kayaks instead so not the end of the world
- Joanne (10/5): Can be better and excellent - I wanted to say excellent BUT the trees were too tall where you do not see the view. And It was too hot coz the AC can't supply enough air according to the allocated room. They have provided extra fan, but no help since its blowing hot air. We did not really have a good rest, except of the tour and the food. Same. But was thankful and grateful for the hospitality they have shown.
- Gijs (10/5): Exceptional -
- David (10/5): Hire a scooter and go explore. The firefly trip from the hotel was amazing and highly recommend - Everything. The rooms, the restaurant,
The food. Nothing
- Anastacia (10/5): 10 - Very well managed and the view and Bird watching is amazing onyl the aircon is not able to reach in our bed but and there is no kittle to make a coffee but its an amazing place to stay Judith had put my daughter in a nice and easy access room as she had an injury on her put. Judith had lookafter us very well! A very well managed place. Judith is a very nice Person whonis willing to help if you need help. The view and relaxing place away from busy town
- Joe (9/5): Stunning (and remote) location. Nice people. Lovely local village. - If you want to switch off from the hustle and bustle, this place is great. The restaurant is great, the food fantastic and Judith was a lovely host. The local tours on offer are really good, well organized and very fairly priced. It would have been nice to have wifi available in the room. Obviously, you can use data but it was patchy and unreliable. Wifi was only available in the restaurant.
- Silvia (8/5): A different point of view - There is an amazing view of the mangroves from up the hill where the restaurant is located The restaurant is yummy and the view is stunning
- Gregory (7/5): Good enough - I liked the food, the staff, the location I thought the room was a little lackluster. it wasn’t as nice as in the picture. TV was small, bed was just okay
- Clarisse (7/5): Good -
- Zheng (10/5): Awesome views and food - Food and location was really awesome. Views was amazing. Staff were the best of my trip in Palawan.
- Michel (8/5): Very good - The quietness and the view That we only had 1 night there 🙂
- Agata (10/5): Exceptional - It's a perfect place to stay on Busuanga. You basically live in a jungle but with a great comfort. We had nice breakfasts included and the manager Judith helped us to organise Coron trip island hopping and scooter rental.
You just need to bear in mind that it is pretty isolated place so getting from Coron town there takes around 50 min by tricicle.
We stayed in Riverhouse as we wanted to do the dugong watching with the Dugong Dive Center situated nearby.
- Daniel (8/5): Very good -
- Adam (9/5): Incredibly professional and warm host. - We were extremely taken care of which was needed after a long day of travel. We had a complimentary drink on arrival and all our bags were taken care of. The area is isolated but so so beautiful and peaceful. Lovely restaurant and rooms. We even had a lovely breakfast prepared on short notice for us to take in the morning for our early flight. Nothing.
- James (8/5): Very good - Very friendly staff. Large rooms. Quiet location. Simple and delicious vegetarian food (from menu).
- Sarah (8/5): Very good -
- Justin (10/5): An Unforgettable Stay at The Riverhouse Coron - Our stay at The Riverhouse Coron was nothing short of magical. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with warmth and kindness by Judith, the wonderful owner, and her team. The location itself is breathtaking—nestled in nature, offering stunning river and jungle views, far from the tourist crowds.
One of the highlights of our stay was our authentic village experience. We had the incredible opportunity to join a local in their daily activities, from fishing in the traditional way to helping build a “bahay kubo” roof with palm leaves. It was a deeply enriching and humbling experience that allowed us to connect with the local culture in a way that few travelers get to.
Another unforgettable moment was the private island hopping tour with Judith and June. Unlike the crowded tours in Coron town, this experience was intimate and personalized. We explored pristine islands, swam in crystal-clear waters, and enjoyed a delicious beachside lunch prepared with fresh local ingredients. Judith and June made the experience even more special with their stories, laughter, and deep knowledge of the area.
To top it all off, we had a magical fireflies night tour with June. Drifting on a traditional banka along the river in the stillness of the night, surrounded by the glowing fireflies dancing among the mangroves, was truly a breathtaking experience. It felt like a scene from a fairytale—one that we will cherish forever.
If you’re looking for an authentic, peaceful, and unique experience in Coron, The Riverhouse is the place to be. It’s not just a stay—it’s an adventure, a cultural immersion, and a chance to create memories that will last a lifetime. We can’t recommend it enough and will definitely be back!
- Mateusz (9/5): Superb - Judith, the host is the best. I can only recommend the private boat tour that they have in offer. Food is delicious. If you’re looking for an alienated spot close to the nature, Riverhouse is a place to go.
- Jody (9/5): Stunning location, friendly service and a very peaceful stay! - The setting is stunning! I’m so glad I stayed here and took a car into town for Island Hopping, instead of staying in Coron. It was a really peaceful and Judith is just a darling! The students were sweet, just remember they’re in training and some patience may be required. The isolation (while lovely) limits dining options, not to say there was anything wrong with the food. And for a solo traveller, the car transfer into town was a fair investment, but that was my problem, not theirs!
- Hanno (8/5): Very good - Lovely staff and manager
- Louis (7/5): Pleasant stay. Good location, Judith great. - Judith is brilliant host. Great communication and lovely. She arranged a transfer and was on hand to greet us on arrival. The food was delicious. Views out onto the river lovely. Ideal location to be near the airport and to head up to Dimakaya. Would have rated 6.5 if there was an option. Property tired and in need of some of work. Loud AC unit.
- Bles (10/5): Exceptional - Staff are friendly and welcoming. Judith was very nice and kind. Location is beautiful and tranquil.
- Zoe (10/5): Exceptional - We had a great stay here, the place is stunning and the food is delicious!
The rooms are comfortable and clean and the staff are so friendly and kind. (Thank you Judith!)
- John (7/5): Decent stay for its price, but the head staff needs better training on what “hospitality” truly means. - The bed is comfortable and the room is clean. Judith was accommodating and nice to us, but the way she treats her staff (trainees) within the earshot of guests is off-putting and left us feeling uncomfortable. Shouting at them, using derogatory words, and condescending tone INFRONT of guests is just too much. Food pricing is also too much for its quality
- Paul (3/5): The place is clean tidy but boring - I wouldn’t stay here again and place is overgrown spoiling the view so pictures on here need updates Nothing to do here, and limited to where you can eat as not much around here ,food I thought was expensive and your limited to eating there
- Ricard (9/5): Superb -
- Nikolaos (7/5): Good -
- Fonseca (10/5): Extraordinary experience - Ate Bing makes everything happen for you, you just need to ask her! Please do the activities they offer you from the house. We did the island hopping, private island hopping and firefly watching. It was simply amazing and you really get value for your money :) Food is delicious and cooked from the scratch, my fav meal was the chicken curry. If the rooms would be renovated this Hotel could easily be a top tier Hotel. Which it is already now.
- Janina (10/5): Exceptional - Judith and the whole team were very kind and helpful. The food was delicious and the view was amazing. We enjoyed the calmness of this beautiful place very much!
- Lena (9/5): Perfect hide away! - Judith and her staff are amazing, so helpful and really kind. The hotel is absolutely quiet and in the middle of nowhere, but perfect for a quick stop to recharge after busy travel days. Our room was clean and spacious, a/c worked fine. Wi-fi is only available in the main area but we had stable reception anyway, so that was not a problem. Food was good, many choices also for vegetarians. The rooms were a little outdated, could use some TLC like a touch of paint. But other than that amazing value for the money!
- Michalina (10/5): Całym place with beautiful view on the river and green area 😍 everything was great, team is really helpful 😍 -
- Svdhole (8/5): Very good - Calm, stunning environment, spacy rooms with terrasse, nice restaurant with very affordable prices Be aware that it's very isolated
- Sanam (9/5): Superb - Was here on the north side to dive. There is a reason everyone mentions Judith when reviewing the place, she is lovely and genuinely loves connecting with her guests and making them feel welcome. Nothing is too big of an ask!
Rooms are of a high standard for Coron, if you can get the room with a river view do it. AC works well and the rooms are spacious and beds super comfortable. WiFi is only in the lounge but that's fine.
Food is really good, home cooked and they do special requests. All the food I asked for take away on dive trips was amazing and packed super well and reasonably priced too.
Stay here even if you're not a diver and just want to experience a different side of Coron Hot water was inconsistent, apparently a special way to get it working I only figured out late in the stay.
Sometimes geckos can enter the room and they're quite loud!
- Nadia (10/5): Exceptional - The Place is absolutly stunning in the middle of the jungle near by the river. Judith and the Staff are super friendly, welcoming and help you to organize everything. We stayed 4 nights and i would come again for sure! The Organisation with the Dugong Dive Center and the Riverhouse was perfect, they picked us up in the Morning at the River and bring us back in the Evening! One of the most beautiful Stay I ever had. Thanks for Everything. Nothing :-)
- Lmbox (9/5): Superb - Perfect for spending a night before the flight to Manila, quiet place, change of scenery, no noise.
Much more enjoyable than spending the night in Coron city and much closer to Coron airport. nothing
- Czarynna (9/5): Superb -
- Babette (7/5): Good - The people are helpful and think along. They assist when necessary. Also the view is very nice and the rooms are big. Because the location is very remote, the power and wifi shut down very often. Also, it is not easy to go somewhere else for activities/diner/drinks. I would have liked that, since the riverhouse has not too many options. Lastly, there is a weird smell in the rooms, I think from the airconditioning?
- Alison (8/5): Great host, great food. Gorgeous gardens and very piece full set up in the forest above the river. - Judith and Bing were amazing and very helpful and hospitable. Helped organise an island hoping trip
Curried crab was amazing and loved the porridge and fruit. Noticed the room above us was vacant and would have appreciated being offered the opportunity to have an upgrade before checking in.
- Liyuan (8/5): Very good - Everything is good, and the most thing I like here is the activity (fishing). Also, the woman who is charged for the house is hospitable, making everything go smoothly. We had a good time here. Will recommend here to who wants to be in isolated places when it comes to vacations. We experienced blackouts three times during our stays. Because of that, we also didn’t have hot water.
- Claudia (9/5): Superb -
- Christopher (10/5): Beautiful area and the staff very accommodating and helpful - Very private and quiet except for the birds singing Power outages for shot periods of time
- Kizzie (5/5): Passable -
- Kirsten (10/5): Ms. Judith and her staff went above and beyond to make us feel at home. Maraming salamat po sa lahat! - We loved the peace and quiet and the view was absolutely beautiful. It was a unique experience staying in the middle of the rainforest and river. The staff took care of arranging our tours and was absolutely wonderful at all times, the kindness and warmth the staff provided is unlike anywhere else in the world. The local firefly and island tours were definitely worth it. Packed lunches and towels were also thoughtfully provided. All the meals we had (whether Filipino or international dishes) were SUBERB! We always looked forward to breakfast. Highly recommend for all travelers to get the real experience of nature plus all the amenities of comfort and cleanliness. Everything was perfect!
- Charlie (9/5): Wonderful place to stay in north coron - Large rooms which were cleaned daily! Also amazing fresh food at the restaurant and an ideal stop for Dugong watching and kayaking! Nothing it was all lovely
- Ollie (6/5): Comfortable and pleasant stay but areas to improve - Staff very welcoming and friendly and helped to arrange a firefly tour for 850 php and airport transfer for 500php - both for 2 persons. Room was a great size, bed was extremely comfortable. Air conditioning was not great, but a fan was provided which helped. Main dinner was not amazing and there are not any other food options nearby which forces your hand to eat at the restaurant. In particular I wouldn't recommend the spag bowl, tasted like spicy BBQ sauce... Breakfast was good though. Location is great if you're going to do a River tour, but not much else nearby. Firefly and plankton tour a little underwhelming.
- Ratko (9/5): Superb - View to the river , silence ,many birds around, nice balcony, nice stuff All okl
- Peter (10/5): Superb - Great food
Rooms were superb
Great contrast to coron town
Serene
Dont miss this
Saw dugong Nothing
- Chris (10/5): Beautiful view & ambience - Amazing view. Greate food. Very well organized & going above and beyond to accommodate wishes and itinerary, and most importantly: our entire stay felt like coming home. Will definitely come back. Just accept that WIFI is only accessible in the common areas.
- Eimi (10/5): Everyone was so gentle and kind ! The view from main deck was wonderful and food was also tasty :) - Gentle, kind, and flexible people.
Great view
good meal
dryer in the room
The owner booked some tours even I will join them after checkout.
The stuff could replace my breakfast into mango <3
Cozy and calm room. There is no wifi in your room, only in main deck. and still slow. enjoy the nature, not smart phone!
- Joana (5/5): Price too high for the quality of the service - We had a good tour to the beach by boat The food was not good at breakfast nor at dinner, very disappointed with the food quality and presentation. The curtains in our bedroom could only cover half of the window so we woke up with the sunlight. AC was weak and could not keep the room cool during the night.
- Federico (10/5): Exceptional - I can only find upsides in the staying. Friendly and helpful staff, beautiful, spacious and comfy rooms, amazing location (ideal to relax and with a beautiful view over the downhill river and surrounding hills) and delicious food. Absolutely recommended.
- Mallory (10/5): Amazing views, brilliant staff and incredible food - The staff were super friendly and helpful. The views were incredible, the food was the best we've had in the Philippines and the location was perfect for diving/snorkelling with dugongs. There's a private pier that the dugong operator (dugong dive center) picks you up from.
It is out the way from everything else but scooters are cheap to hire (and brought directly to the Riverhouse).
If you like wildlife, it's nice for that too. We saw plenty of birds, lizards and a palawan stink badger!
Lastly, hot water/pressure was fine. Would highly recommend. I'd love to go back one day. If I had to be picky.. the aircon isn't the best as it was quite loud but I'm a light sleeper. Take earbuds if you are too.
- Angela (8/5): Very good -
- Ines (9/5): Perfect place for peace and tranquility - The Riverhouse is beautifully nestled in the countryside, away from the hustle and bustle of Coron Town. The airport is within easy reach. Our bungalow was very spacious and modern. The food in the restaurant was always freshly prepared and very tasty. We booked the island hopping tour and enjoyed a wonderful day on really secluded beaches only for us.
If, like us, you are looking for peace and seclusion, this is the place for you.
- Mehdi (7/5): Good - Good place if you want to be out from the town
- Ina (10/5): Amazing stay - Amazing room with breathtaking view and wonderful sunrise that wakes you up. Judith and her sister are just amazing, they organized eveything for us - scooter, transport and tours. We loved it. Everything was wonderful
- Nathan (10/5): Exceptional -
