Guest Reviews

• Verified traveler (8/5): - Gite étape pour trip familial aux Philippines. Bon emplacement et bien tenu.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Es un sitio tranquilo. Nos hicieron la habitación. Calidad precio bien
• Verified traveler (4/5): - The shower barely worked. The toilet was very cheap. There was no tv in the room. No porch light. Very deep in the alley and quite a far walk to the tourist area and Alona beach. The road/alley going into the place was not paved. I would not recommend.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - It was very affordable. The free trip to Alona Beach was a real convenience.
• Verified traveler (2/5): The first time I regret my choice - This is the worst hotel I have ever staying.There are so many bad parts. 1.The building was unsafe, the wooden stairs were cracked. When we walked on it, you can feel the shaking of the building.also you can feel the shaking once someone passed by the stairs. 2.The floor bowed just by standing on it and when even in our bed we could feel our neighbour walking in their room. 3. When plugging in my phone charger the walled bounced. 4.the door was not fitted properly ,it always left a crack big enough for a big gecko to get in. 5.We had several time of power cuts. 6.the water there is also shut down once,and the tap cannot close to, drop a lot of salty water. 7.the wall is made by thin board,so we can hear our nearby breathing. 8.we cannot bear to stay there anymore,so just stayed two nights,asked them to refund us,but they just put that duty to HOTELS,and refund nothing,we lost 9nights fees 9.the first day we went there, there is no cloth to cover your body, any one sheet to cover the bed. Don’t looking forward you staying here,even it is recommended by Lonely Planet,but sometime they will make mistakes too!
• Daniel (10/5): Great stay - Great place a little off the beaten track. Still walkable but the hotel will pay for a tricycle to and from the main strip between 18.00 and 22.00. GREAT aircon
• Anna (8/5): Cute bungalow, has potential but basic - Short walk to town, good to stretch legs but you may feel uncomfortable as a solo traveller as it is on a back road. Having said that they offer a free ride in the evening. The staff were friendly and the bungalow basic, but rustic as expected. The view from the veranda of coconut tree was pretty however having a leaking sewer on the garden next to us was fairly gross!
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Cadre verdoyant à l’ecart De la station balnéaire Excellent petit déjeuner Gentillesse du personnel
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Nice garden, nice rooms, jungle feeling with that beautiful plants, friendly personal
• Ryan (8/5): Good place to stay - Good place to stay. 7/10. The location is what let’s this accommodation down - it is about a 15 min walk to the beach and down some dark alleys/paths at night so could be scary on your own. They do offer a shuttle service to and from the hotel to the beach for free, between 6-10pm which was great and really handy. Make sure you say to the trike driver it’s to chill out, and they pay there - as it seemed only some drivers were willing to take it on. The room was good, comfy big bed, good A/C. No reliable WiFi, only slow and intermittent. Bathroom facilities also good!
• myriam (8/5): Bien au calme.... - Hotel sympa à l écart du centre 10mns à pied Chambre confortable, bon petit dejeuner
• Joe (6/5): Moldy room, nice location. - Friendly staffs, nice location. Room smells moldy. To the point that you hardy breath!
• Verified traveler (2/5): - Very basic room which is fine but the room looked at a concrete fence with jagged glass on top... no breeze and only a fan with no window to open for air circulation. Felt like being in a steam room but without any of the enjoyment. I wanted to peel my skin off. We promptly went in search of another place to stay and forfeited our money.
• Vienna (6/5): - 職員很友善及helpful, 有次碰巧職員下班, 他主動車我們出main road。 房間有簡單及基本設備, 不是裝潢得很舒適那一種。供電、供水及廁所水也不穩定。我們住5晚停了兩次電, 也有兩次停水。房間隔音差, 外面或樓上樓下有人說話或經過會聽得很清楚。
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Staff was very helpful. Food was good with many local dishes. For an overnight stay, it provided most of what I was looking for in a budget guest house.
• Wei (8/5): - It's very thoughtful of them to provide free tricycle rides to and fro Alona Beach after 6 p.m. even though it's fine to walk. The wooden room is comfy and has all the basic amenities we need.
• Viktoria (8/5): Prisvärt! - Ljust rum med mörkt trägolv, balkong med liten soffa. Trevlig trädäck med växtlighet runt om som leder mot rummen. Gatan utanför är dock mörk kvällstid,men inte otrevlig. Vänlig personal! Ca 10 min promenad till stranden.
• Joshua (10/5): Great quiet stay - Great place to stay near Alona beach. Beautiful surroundings and lovely rooms. A little off the beaten track and slightly hard to find, but really quiet and away from the main beach. Only took 15-20 mins to walk to the beach, and between certain hours the staff will pay for a motorbike taxi to take you to/from the beach. Staff were incredibly helpful and friendly, and the premises always had staff on site which made it feel very safe. Would highly recommend!
• YuCHing (6/5): - 價格便宜，不過離海灘有點距離，且晚上很暗，不太適合單獨的女生
• Claude (8/5): Séjour agréable - L'hôtel est à 15 minutes d'Alona Beach et profites de ce fait d'un environnement plus tranquille. Petit déjeuner copieux.
• Verified traveler (4/5): Nothing like expected - Knew I was getting a low rate and was expecting some inconveinces but, got to the hotel, was told I'd be put in another room til mine was ready, next morning ask to stay in the in the unassigned room, it was denied and I was told the couple who was staying my room would be moving out and as soon as it was cleaned I could move in, they double booked the rooms.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Bon accueil, jolie jardin, bien situé, prestations complémentaires complètes, menu du restaurant un peu en deçà
• Verified traveler (4/5): not with Kids - not suited when travelling with Kids. ok for backpackers or singles
• JINGJING (8/5): - 员工态度很好，酒店所处地方安静，但是就是离海滩有点距离，特别晚上回去路很黑要坐摩托车。客房都是木质结构，所以旁边走路说话都听得到，有点影响睡眠，总体还是给好评吧
• Bernarda (10/5): Angenehmes Guesthouse weg vom Trubel - Im chill out Guesthouse habe ich mich vom ersten Augenblick an sehr wohl gefühlt.Sehr lecker waren die Crepes zum Frühstück.Das sehr freundliche Personal ist auch auf Spezialwünsche eingegangen.
• iga (8/5): Spokojna okolica,dobre sniadania,pomocna recepcja - Jedyny minus to nieudana wycieczka island hopping, naciągaczami okazali się przewodnik i właściciel łódki, którzy wmawiali ze w cenie zakupu przez chill-out guesthouse nie ma transportu do wybrzeża i zwiedzania pewnych atrakcji, nikt nie poczuł sie do zwrotu, recepcjonistce było niezręcznie, pozostał niesmak
• Borja, Miha (8/5): Confortable - Tranquilo, buen servicio y bien situado si te gusta no estar cerca del jaleo,
• Verified traveler (4/5): N'y allez pas en famille, ou emmenez votre tente - Cette chambre m'a été vendue comme pouvant accueillir 4 personnes ("lit supplémentaire disponible"), or ce n'était clairement pas le cas... Nous avons dormi à 2 avec ma femme sur un matelas 1 place posé à même le sol (pas de sommier) entre le pied du lit et la porte... Chambre pour 2 uniquement !!! Le matelas supplémentaire, stocké sous le lit, était très poussiéreux. De manière générale, le ménage de la chambre était plus que moyen (poussière, vieux bâton de glace sous le lit, etc...). Les serviettes de bain, au-delà d'être vielles, sentaient l'humidité... L'établissement est correct (accueil, services, pièces commune, etc) mais un peu loin d'Alona Beach (un bon 1/4 d'heure à pieds).
• XIN (10/5): 干净整洁 - 位置有点不好找，WIFI信号还不错，比较干净整洁~
• CHUNG CHI (8/5): - 環境很好，但房間有小蟲
• Verified traveler (2/5): 보홀에서 휴양을 즐기고 싶다면 여기는 절대 안되요 - 두번째 방문인 보홀에서 보다 저렴한 숙박을 위해 예약한 칠 아웃은 말그대로 아웃이다 첫날 저녁시간 두번의 정전과 노후된 전선의 합선으로 불꽃이 튀고 같이 간 일행이 겁을 먹고 다른 곳으로 옮길려고 부탁해도 노 .. 체크아웃 하겠다고 해도 노..환불이 안된단다 그래서 오늘 방값은 빼고 환불을 요구해도 노.. 방값을 포기하고 짐싸서 나왔다 입구에 꽤 괜찮은 리조트로 다시 옮겼다 그냥 최악이다 미안하다는 말도 없다..좋은 기분망치고 싶지 않아서 돈을 푀기했다 누구라도 더 이상 이런 피해를 입지 않기를 바란다..
• Adam (8/5): Nice guesthouse, a little off the beaten path - The guesthouse is quite nice. The rooms are decent. The floors are a bit creaky, so it can get loud but it never influenced my sleeping. The only real issue with the guesthouse is that it is a bit far from the main street and beach. The road at night is a bit long and dark, but the hotel will pay for any transport back after dark. Overall, its a great deal for the price.
• Emanuel (6/5): Just okay :-/ - Overall just okay. The staff is really nice and do everthing they can to help. Happy hour is great! Beds are uncomfortable and very noisy. We woke up everytime one of our room neighbors went to the bathroom.
• Sean (8/5): Quiet guesthouse near Alona Beach - Chill-out Guesthouse is quite closely located to Alona Beach, the main touristy beach in Panglao. They will arrange (and pay for) a tricycle taxi to pick you up and take you home after 6 p.m which is a great service. The rooms have wi-fi but the signal isn't very good. The staff are friendly and helpful. I would recommend staying here if you want to be close to Alona Beach but far enough to not be disturbed by the crowds
• Steve (10/5): Great secluded hideaway an easy walk to the beach - The guesthouse is a super chilled out quiet little place set in a leafy garden. It feels off the beaten path, but it's only a 10 minute stroll to the main street and a couple more minutes to Alona beach. It's a very simple place - there aren't a lot of options for food from the small kitchen (the fresh mango juice is great), but the staff are all extremely friendly and helpful. The room was basic but extremely clean and comfortable. The only small issue I had was being in a room with a fan only and not having any windows that opened to let in a breeze. Would definitely recommend to others looking for a quiet, relaxing place that has everything you need for a great price.
• florin (6/5): Nice hotel Clean Quiet But far away from the main - The hotel it's far away from the mAin road and far away from the beach Sow you need about 30 minuts walking to get acces to the beach! Most of the parts of the beach are Privat sow you're not alowed to pass there
• Verified traveler (8/5): Friendly and helpful staff - staff at chill-out is very helpful and friendly. the environment of the guesthouse is also nice, comfortable and relax. However, water pressure and soundproof are a bit worse. It is not close to the beach but one return shuttle to alona beach by tricycle is provided from 6pm to 11pm =)
• Thomas (10/5): Staff always willing to help - Great staff (special thanks to Krissy!). They ensure that you are having a good time.
• Verified traveler (10/5): Great value, great place! - Great value! The guesthouse premises are nice (nice garden) and the rooms are clean. The verandas outside the rooms are a nice touch. The bathroom in the room we stayed at had a broken tile, but other than that, it was functional and fine. The location wasn't too bad at all. Had to walk ~10 min. to get to Alona beach, and at night the guesthouse reimburses up to a certain amount for a trike/tricycle ride to and from. Hotel staff are extremely helpful and friendly--they arranged our scooter rental and our tours! Oh, and they provide mineral water to refill your bottles, as well! Internet, unlike other places we stayed at in the country, worked really well. The service level was superb--I felt cared for at this place. Awesome!!
• Verified traveler (2/5): Not good - I had stayed the guesthouse for 4days. Far from beach, there is nothing but local house around this hotel. The air is always smoky because the local guys burn woods for daily life. The room was humid, smells bad. The bathroom doesn't have fan so air just stuck inside. You can find much better hotel along beach at reasonable price.
• Steve (10/5): A great place to 'Chill Out' - A great place to chill out - fridge in room handy for cold drinks, no tv in room so encouraged more chill out time, beautiful garden setting and friendly helpful staff. As is a short 5 - 10 min walk to town/beach they will pay for your tricycle back from town in the evening which was a nice touch. Room was spacious and cleaned daily - a great place for your Bohol getaway.
• Travis (8/5): Great place, great staff and rooms were...ok. - Overall I had a good experience. This hotel is for the person that wants to spend time on the beach, in town or in the common area meeting people from around the world and just need a good enough room and bed to recover from the fun. The room was not amazing and had several things that were wrong with them, but did not ruin my stay. It had my major requirements of running toilets, warm showers and a descent bed. I have been in the Philippines on and off all year for work and vacation and these things are hard to find sometimes even in the city. The staff and the owner were great and the food they served was good and for a very reasonable price.
• Waldemar (8/5): Fine But Simple Hotel - Best point about Chill Out Guest House is the friendly, helpful service from Chrissy, the manager, and her staff. The hotel is quiet, clean and simple. Most of the other guests were young European travelers. There is an adequate, open air restaurant. The rooms are clean. Hotel is not on the beach, but there is no problem getting there as they have arranged pass-through with one of the beachfront resorts. Chrissy can arrange all tours, plus they will reimburse trike fare when you return from town. I had no problem walking everywhere day or night.
• Akos (10/5): Great Guesthouse - The staff was really friendly and the whole chill out experience was great. I would totally come back here.
• Verified traveler (8/5): Great value and close to the beach - The guesthouse initially seems to be a little out of the way but once you see the benefits the distance is minimal its only a 5 min walk to the beach and the guesthouse itself has a great atmosphere, very relaxed and tranquil which is unexpected but very welcome. It may not be the cheapest but its great value for money, staff are super friendly and helpful and was impressed with the room standard especially considering past experiences with rooms in Asia.
• Deborah Michigan (10/5): Best value for money on Alona Beach - The hotel is 5 minute away from the beach, 10 minutes from commerce and restaurants. The room was comfortable even with a fan only. The service is really good, cleaning our room everyday, the staff is nice and friendly. They help us arrange our transportation effectively. The food quality is nice (I only tried the breakfast) and at a reasonable price.The only drawbacks were that the toilet could'nt flush during our stay which made us avoid going to toilet and the WIFI was sometimes not working properly. Despite these last points, I still highly recommend you this location if you want to travel for cheap yet at a comfortable place. We tried to walk in into other hotels and guesthouse to compare the prices but couldnt find better value for money rooms. It was either much more expensive and cheaper rooms looked and smelled bad.
• djc (10/5): Fantastic service - I booked for one night, ended up staying for five. The staff are welcoming, friendly, very helpful. The room large, airy and clean with a balcony. The location is 10/15 minutes walk to the beach through the town, if this is too much for you they will take you on a bike.Excellent stay
• Maaike (10/5): Nice and quiet place - I really liked it! the rooms are located in a peacefull garden. The staff was really friendly! Only 'problem' is that it's not located directly on the beach, but it's a short walk. bring a flashlight when you walk at night.
• Verified traveler (10/5): Super staff - Very pleasant stay. Super friendly and helpful staff especially Chrissie who runs the ship, knows the answer to every question and deals with everything in such a professional and friendly manner. Location is a little bit from the beach but it's quiet, has security and does very good breakfasts and lunches.
• Robert (8/5): Cill out at Chill Out - Very nice and friendly staff. Very helpful. Good food at the restaurant. It is located away from Alona Beach area, but a 20 min walk or a short motorbike ride and you are there. Rooms are clean and comfortable, but water pressure is an issue. You needed a bucket and scoop to get the toilet to flush. A/C worked great!
