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
We had a nice stay here and as a couple, we stayed four nights. Overall everything was nice. Rooms: The rooms are basic and clean. The shower is a modern power shower and is easy to use and to get whatever temperature you wish. The windows are privacy (reflective) during the day but not so at night so you need to pull the curtain. The balcony is nice and big with a view of Lee the pool area which is really nice. The bed mattress is comfy. The furniture is minimal and basic but does the job. Staff: We are at the adjoining restaurant two nights, and both times it was nice; one night I had a pizza and the other I had the seafood pasta ‘al dente’. Overall, pretty good Italian food when I compare with Italian restaurants in Ireland or Italy. The staff were very consistently nice and welcoming. They all helped us with any issues/queries or requests we had. We rented a scooter for some of the days too and the staff looked after us with regard to this. Other: The pool area is nice and chill, but could be kept cleaner due to a lot of bugs constantly drowning in it. However, it was still nice. The place has a generator that kicks in a few seconds after every power cut which was very handy and necessary in this island. Areas for improvement: - A safe for the rooms would be good - For the price you pay compared to other more luxurious accommodation, I think breakfast should be included here. It is not much effort for them to provide this, as they are primarily a busy restaurant who does a great trade here. - Pool could be cleaned more regularly - The area for parking the scooters/bikes near the side door should be upgraded to a hard surface like asphalt or concrete for a safer and easier place for guests to park bikes (gets full often and currently is just soil and rubble on a slope). - One small thing was I requested a small jug of milk for the coffee in the room as in Europe we don’t really use creamer much in coffee. I was charged for this. I thought that was a bit mean. - The selection of gelatos we thought was quite poor, but maybe it is tailored to local taste. Usually, a gelato counter has a lot of the classics like cheesecake, forest fruits, cookies and cream etc.
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

The best value for money on a beautiful white fine sand beach in the Philippines. Plenty of quality places to eat within easy walking distance. Cool beachfront cafes with cheap ice cold beer. Crystal clear warm water to enjoy a swim all year round. Lots of interesting places to visit on a local tricycle. Rooms big and comfortable beds. Free filtered water. Great spa pool, children’s pool and swimming pool. Very helpful and cheerful staff. A perfect place to get away from the huge crowds in El Nido. Coron, Bohol and Boracay in particular. As a travel and tour operator for over 30 years, now retired, this is up there with the ideal family run resorts. Not too big and impersonal. Get there now as it will grow and be ruined by the huge crowds one day.
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!
This resort is a gem for it is not common to have backpacker-friendly places that offer the resort experience. Located right in front of Solangon Beach but when tide is too low for dipping, there is a swimming pool where you can hang out. There are hammocks too if you are in the mood for lounging. There's a restaurant serving food and beer. If you want options though, other resorts are within walking distance and accessible along the beach. Staff are friendly and ready to answer questions about boat schedule, tours and even laundry service (priced at Php60/kg). Most of their accommodation are cottages but one big room is converted into a dorm with shared shower and toilet that are kept clean. Room is well-ventilated but there are stand fans if you have low tolerance for heat. Unlike typical hostels though, they do not have outlets/light in each bed. Siquijor mostly operates on cash but this is one of few places that accept GCash.

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.
