Siquijor Apartments

Location wise, it is not near the party area which isa San Juan. The hotel is located in Lazi where most of the tourist spots are located but if you are a party goer, the hotel is quite far. But the hotel may call for a transportation. Signal - There is no mobile signal in the hotel. They have wifi but there were times that the wifi was so slow and its a bit frustrating since you have no other access as your mobile data will not work. Room - very spacious. They have mini fridge, a TV and electric kettle. The TV has netflix, YT. They have cabinets. Hot and cold shower is available. Their blanket is not a comforter, it is just plain flat blanket. They provide towels. Amenities - they have swimming pool but it was not warm which is not an issue. You can lounge in the couch while having you tan. Staff - they were friendly and very accommodating. They have this walkie talkie so you can contact them if you have questions or requests. Restaurant - food was great and they offer a variety of menu. The whole place is so quiet that if you want a relaxing stay, this hotel is great except for the absence of mobile signal.

The hotel is located in a peaceful isolated place near the nice beach where you can get only if you stay in one of two hotel there or if you buy a ticket. The road goes through the woods so it is very quiet. You can grab a kayak at the hotel and explore the nearby empty beaches or do some snorkeling just in front of the hotel. The beach is located 3 min away, and there is a small rock with some places for jumping into the water, but the local officer said it is forbidden to swim and jump there. There is a restaurant at the hotel, but it is quite pricey, the nearest place to eat is only bike or tricycle reachable. The luxe room is awesome, a lot of space and light, truly loved the big windows. Definitely recommend if you love quiet places and can drive a bike or a car.

Okay naman kaso walang generator, palagi pa naman brownout

LOVED our stay at Coco Grove. We are not fans of large resorts, but this is an exception. Even though our first 2 nights the resort was full we did not feel like there were lots of people. The property is huge, villas and rooms are spread out amidst lush tropical foliage, there are 3 different & good sized pools in different areas. 3 food outlets. A decently equipped gym. A nice gift shop that doesn’t mark up the items exorbitantly—we found it very reasonable. Very well planned resort. Staff are just lovely—very sweet, attentive and helpful. Everyone. From drivers, front office, restaurants, spa, cleaners, gardeners, guards, lifeguards—all really just genuinely nice. I greatly appreciate how the staff are kind to animals too. Went to the Spa 3 nights for massage—ask for joy—I had one of the best aromatherapy massages from her (2 nights—my first and last; the masseuse I had the other night was mediocre). And if you prefer hard massages ask for a Swedish deep tissue massage from Fretzel, she was excellent according to my partner. We stayed in an ocean villa. Very spacious with a good sized bathroom with separate shower and bath tub too. There are also shelves and closets to hang clothes. Rooms are cleaned daily which we appreciate (if you don’t want yours cleaned daily let them know when you check in). It was wonderful having the beach & sea “at your doorstep.” Our stay was very peaceful. The Sanctuary Villas are at the opposite end, near the spa and in a bit more private area, we’ll probably request that for next time. there isn’t anything wrong with the Ocean villas (which are near the dive center) it’s just there was more foot traffic in the area than in the sanctuary. Internet is good in some areas and weak to none in others. Food is ok, portions are good. Decent selection for breakfast. For vegetarians the vegetable curry in Salanandas is good, Thai inspired better than at the Beach Bar. The fries and the stir fried vermicelli noodles w vegetables at the Beach Bar were better than the fries and the vegetarian pancit (these noodles were thicker) at Salamandas. Don’t forget to say hi to Macky, their rescued Brazilian Parrot We’ll be back, coco Grove is on our list of favorite beach resorts!

We want to thank the owner Gri and staff at this lovely hotel! The warmth and welcome we felt was phenomenal, as well as the service. The highlight of the stay was the gorgeous pool and view. We loved beginning and ending each day with a dip and hearing the waves crash as we fell asleep. Magical! The flowers and trees on the property are stunning and the rooms are comfortable and reasonably appointed. The beds are firm by western standards but being that we are Americans who live in China, we love this for our backs! We ate breakfast every morning and one of our dinners in the hotel restaurant and it is very high quality, tasty food. I especially loved the organic spinach and homemade dumplings, as well as the mapo tofu- YUM! The fresh fruit each day was crisp and delicious and I LOVED drinking coconuts by the pool. Thank you, Cherry! Coffee is for purchase at the restaurant, not in the rooms. The location of the hotel is quite remote, meaning it is peaceful and quiet. I recommend you arrange transportation for excursions in advance each day, or rent a scooter, as waiting for a tricycle can be long. We were told that you can swim and snorkel in front of the hotel but the tide was too low when we tried one day. However, there are snorkels and kayaks for use in the hotel! The hotel is still developing some of the water activities available. The pool is deep enough for diving courses, but check to make sure they are ready, as the gear is still in order as of Oct 2023. There are snorkel and dive spots a short ride away, however, and you can ask for help at the desk to book a tour or connect with a dive shop.

The hotel has a beach, the room has a pot and induction cooker, you can make something to eat yourself, the front beach room is very good, and the triple room in the back room is a big bed, which is a bit embarrassing

Reception is not in obvious place, poor wi-fi and water supply. Some minor problems with interior. Balcony without any access to it. Otherwise, really good location, breakfast, surroundings. Not for a long stay IMHO

Tahanan has a wonderful location with amazing views. Our room was comfortable and quiet and had a beautiful sea view. (And a cute little goat in the garden!) The food is great, with a menu ranging from pizza to to sushi and a good selection of cocktails. The staff was friendly and helpful. We rented a motorbike and the staff gave us great tips on where to go to explore the island. We had an unforgettable time and can't wait to go back!
