Callachuchi Homestay

I was very lucky to find this amazing and charming place. The house is peaceful and relaxing. The room is spacious and clean, set in a beautiful garden—and how amazing is it to have a private beach! Paul and Mechelle are incredibly kind and attentive, always ready to help with anything you might need. I am so grateful to them for making my stay so pleasant. I will definitely come back here!

I loved it all

The place is just as shown in the photos. It is really nice that you can go down to the beach (rocky) from the homestay. It is a really quiet place and the familiy is really welcoming. They even invited me to dinner and the party of one of the children's birthday. The room is nice, spacious and modern compared to other places in the Philippines. There were some reviews complaining about breakfast. You can have breakfast 5min away walking in a resort and they are building a kitchen to be able to serve meals too, so it would be a really nice improvement. They have a lot of rabbits in the garden. It is really funny see how they jump everywhere. If I comeback to Siquijor, I would love to come back here.

It was not a problem for me, but it is kind of in the middle of nowhere, so if you are not willing to pay a tuktuk to go anywhere or you don't want to rent a bike, please don't stay here. One improvement I will do is put some ant repellents or something similar, because ants get into the bathroom if you throw some food rests in the trash bin placed there.

Very quiet and relaxing location. Close to a local restaurant and small convenience stores. Beach front was fabulous. No crowds and access was easy and very private. Saw several turtles up close while snorkeling. Scuba dive shop was within walking distance. I'd definitely return and stay there again.

The hosts were so kind and helpful with everything, they had their two kids running around who wanted to play with us, same with their two cute 3 month old puppies! The accomodation has a direct access to the sea were you can swim with turtles during sunset relatively unbothered. We saw three on our one swim. We saw the prettiest night sky we’ve ever seen due to the missing light pollution, it was just so perfect We could have stayed a month!

Amazing private self contained building with gorgeous roof top veranda looking out to sea. Loved the clean and fresh swimming pool and beautiful gardens. Own path to sea (rocky) for snorkeling with turtles (at dusk). Hosts were extremely helpful. Great place to chill, we loved it!

Impressed that unit & hosts house run on solar power but this meant limited air conditioning (a little too warm for us) but screens at windows and fan to compensate. For same solar reason no refrigerator so no food could be kept in unit. Kettle and cups provided but all meals have to be purchased outside property. Luckily good eateries in walking distance and scooter hire possible. This did not affect our most enjoyable 3 night stay.

The room is spacious, with many storages. The bed is huge and very comfortable, perfect for couples (also good for 2 people and a kid). The cleanliness is on the highest level in whole house particularly in the bathroom. The whole family is very kind and helpful. You can see many beautiful flowers (for example calachuci, if i am not mistaken) in the garden which makes you feel relaxed. The surrounding area is very quite and peaceful, perfect for resting. The ocean is very near, water is clear and you can snorkel around and admire sea turtles. The swimming pool is also available in the garden. I highly recommend to stay in this house.

This place is the perfect vacation get away! We stayed almost a full week and enjoyed every minute. You‘ll stay in a super spacious and nicely furnished private room with a new bathroom and an incredible view from the roof top. The owner and the family are just lovely and so helpful. Bunnies are hoping through the garden where you can enjoy the pool. On top of that there is a direct access over the cliffs to a snorkel spot where we swam with turtles.

Not one thing to complain about! Even though I would definitely recommend this place for people that looking for recreation since there are few km to drive to restaurants and bars.

Honestly, we loved absolutely everything about this place! We ended up extending for 2 more nights and would have done many more if we had the time! The room was amazing - super clean, bed was so comfy and the room was huuuuge. The shower pressure and temp was perfect - we loved that everything is run on solar power! WiFi was great:) The roof top view was AWESOME for sunsets! You can also go down onto a private lil beach and go snorkelling - we saw so many turtles! They also have snorkels in the room - free of charge, which was awesome! Also they have bunnies hopping around the place, along with cats and the cutest golden retriever. There was also a waterfall pond just outside the room with fish and toads, which we thought was such a cool addition! All of this for such a good price! Most of all though - the family were just the most lovely people ever!! Sooo hospitable, welcoming and friendly - we are missing them already!! Best place we've stayed throughout our whole travelling experience. Honestly couldn't speak highly enough about this place - you definitely wouldn't regret staying here!!!

Absolutely nothing!
