It’s a bit strange to share this but i must to warn fellow travelers. So I asked the owner guy about booking a trusted driver to avoid scams - then ended up feeling ripped off by exactly the guy he recommended.. It was off in every detail . Driver arrived at hotel ‘to negotiate’ , I don’t even know why he couldn’t have asked these prices straight on the phone… Isn’t exactly this transparency that should be the norm? Anyway As im talking to the driver I quickly realised that I won’t get a good deal. When i told him my best offer he asked the owner for approval - as if to know if he should take it or not. Owner gave the pass. - an interaction that’s been unprecedented since the 10 years I’ve spent on and off on the road. Then took the 30kms ride for 1000 pesos. If this is not bad enough, the driver had no clue where the new accommodation was. In all fairness he seemed more like a dude who has a car than someone professional. After asking around at a local barber (!) then some tricycle drivers, he eventually got there. If i were the owner i would make sure to recommend correct businesses to my guests. Im conclusion, if you are sensitive to being overcharged like i am dont take advice from the staff members or get a quote on the phone before anything else… Photo attachment of one of the ‘driver’ is asking for directions.

Seaview room was a real joy

This was a short time booking, cause I had to find something and was already evening. When I arrived nowbody knew anything about my coming and I had to wait 45min for room cleaning. When I had a coffee on the commom veranda in the morning there came a phillipine girl (not very cute) and asked me to join my shower and give my contact details. It seems she was known by the owner and part of the staff

Very noisy, just along the main road. Traffic never really stops. Beach not a real beach: shallow waters and rocky.

where do I start ! room dirty ( old socks under bed ) had to ask for toilet roll air con broke ( thankfully a fan was working) toilet didn’t flush The hand soap that was supplied, was really smelly. Had to shower in it. Was not pleasant as there was no shower gel supplied. owners stuff, i.e. curtains bedding hanging on the handrail where the guests are ? generally the owners clutter doesn’t need to be seen by guests I need to point out. I have stayed in many apartments and hotels on Booking.com. And I’ve never felt the need to put a review. Sadly, this place has forced me to.. but not in a good way I would not recommend this place. The owners seriously need to up their game . It’s such a shame because it’s fantastic location . Rob ☹️

I liked the location

This hotel severely misrepresented the room we rented. I strongly suggest that Booking.com consider disassociating itself from them to maintain your credibility. We rented what was claimed to be a "villa" but in reality it was a room with thatched bamboo walls baking in the direct sunlight without AC. It was over 40°C before noon and by sundown would have been well over a safe temperature. Also after I booked and paid Booking.com, the hotel contacted me directly trying to get extra money from me. We just took out bags and left, never to return.

Careful Fake pictures , there is no private beach ,the pictures of the house posted is not updated as you can see on my pictures from this week ,the owner rent downstair ,it s a Thai restaurant with terrace. So no exterior to chill. Room no sea view , street view on cimetery with very noisy traffic and only a wood panel to separate both rooms ,no privacy at all, you can ear people as they were in your room. Bonus: you have to pay cash , then when I discovered that the place is not complying with what it is presented on booking.com (like 30min after my arrival ) I informed the owner that due to the fake presentation of this I would stay only 1 night and told him to put straight the room available for the following days and asked to be refunded. He tryed to discuss to keep 3 nights , I said ok I will stay 1 but you keep the money for 2 fair enough for the inconvenience. Rico ( owner) said that my money was in the safe in a desk , that he will give me back the day after, just saving time ... On the next morning, pictures posted has been removed and policy modified , so he said he would not give me back any money ,I can stay or leave . He kept all my money 7000php / 130 euros for 5 nights ,I slept only 1, no breakfast included. This is fake advertisement. I m a very active member on bookin.com , first time in many years I had this situation. Place to avoid

Cleaning room ok

The owner was very kind and accommodating. The place is clean, has a great view, and is located close to a lot of restaurants which is really cool. Very nice for it’s price!
