Loon Homestays

We were there to scout snorkeling locations. The owner showed us around and arranged a boat for us to visit the sites we were interested in. He was very nice, friendly and accommodating. It all looks very nice and seems extremely well maintained. It's all very recent construction. There are plenty of deluxe details. Big beds, super quiet aircon, great wifi, one way glass in the front windows of the rooms! The kitchen at the restaurant is large and very well appointed. It was the chef's day off but food was procured from the resort next door. The waitress was not well trained but was a 10 visually. I'm told the snorkeling was a paradise on Earth prior to Typhoon Odette. Now it is only average and will take many years to regain its former glory. The soft corals are starting to recover but the hard corals are down for the count. We did see some large sea turtles. The hardcore freedivers in our group said that it's still glorious at depths of 35 feet and more, so scuba divers will not be disappointed.

very bizarre trip as the hotel was undergoing some maintenance and we were literally the only people staying there. a nice place all the same but very remote

Wonderful place which also caters for families :-) Erwin was an excellent host and gave us tips / planned trips for us etc. The resort is nice and it has a cool restaurant with reasonable prices. The pool was wonderful and it has a shallow area for little children. The only drawback is that you cannot swim directly at the beach at the resort. You would need to go to a different location. But that is also easily organised.
