“Best pizza in the Philippines so far... Nice beach. Not many people. Great snorkeling. Restaurant and housekeeping staff was excellent. Owners are on site and very nice people. If you want civilization, go to Boracay. If you want to get away from it all, Carabao Island is for you.”
“Close to everything; town, best beaches, nature. The owner is really nice and helpful. They have their own restaurant with great food choices.
The view is really nice from the room.
We love the island itself also. Calm, quite place with nice nature, outstanding snorkel spots and kind people. But dont expect any party places.”
“Wow, what a hotel, I was very lucky as it's run by an English guy called David who looked after me so well.
The hotel was absolutely perfect right on this most amazing unspoilt beech, serving some incredible wines and delicious food.
David was kind enough to organise an island tour on the island new road and if you are looking for paradise then Carabao island is a great choice.
I spent 2 days on Boracay but when you arrive on Carabao island it's like stepping back in time in nature.
Life is good and slow and you can escape the rat race and stresses of your previous world.
The hotel is very upper class with amazing staff and nothing is too much trouble.
I am coming here again next year.”
“The restaurant is amazing though a bit pricey. All the food we had there was on point- good ingredients and a lot of care was put into each dish. The staff and especially the couple that owns the place were friendly and hospitable. They were always ready to help you out and answer questions. Everything was clean, and the pool was amazing.”
“We didn’t actually make it to the property as our travel plans changed. However, I emailed the owner to inform him of this and he very kindly said that if he managed to re-let the room then he would reimburse, which I thought was very decent.”
“The staff is amazing, professional, available and friendly.
The place is amazing. Clean beach, sunset, beers and interesting travelers to meet.
The price is super fair. And despite the low price, the owner, GG (sorry for the spelling mistake ;) ) is investing to improve. I saw the place being transformed during 7 days. And she is still investing to improve.
I could rent scooter, mountain bicycle and snorkelling gears to her cousin, literally 10 seconds away from my Kubo ( little house lets say).
I ate once a day at Kokonut restaurant and is was always very good. A lot of fresh food, cooked on demand. Despite a little bit more expensive than some other places, I always had the feeling that it was a fair price based on effort put to make something tasty. Meat quantity was always above my expectations. Ive tried something like 7 or 8 different meals, one different everyday.
If you are awake before the restaurant opens, there is a place not too far opened with home brewed coffee. Something like 15 minutes walk, where you can also order breakfast. Name of the place is Marinor or something like that, it’s a bit uphill and you can go though the normal path or through and earth path, which is a bit shorter.
Among things i loved is that the house is built without concrete nor metal on the roof, but with bamboos. Consequently you don’t need an AC / Aircond to feel good :) I didn’t even turn on the fan of the week :))
It’s pleasant visually and in terms of confort it’s a no brainer.”
