What the reviews say
Women who arrive for two days and leave eleven later point to the hosts and the waterfront setting as the reason. The one honest trade-off: thin mattress, cold water only, and a loud window AC unit that reviews name without exception.
- One reviewer stayed a week and highlighted strong wifi with zero issues, a motorbike rental in excellent condition from the hosts, and direct access to a walking beach on the waterfront.
- The hosts are notably kind and helpful, with one describing the staff as loving and the overall atmosphere as peaceful and quiet.
- One reviewer arrived for two days and ended up staying eleven, offering no further explanation beyond recommending others see for themselves.
- A reviewer noted the beach is not ideal for swimming but is natural and worth watching, and that the property sits right at the seafront with a private feel.
- The smaller room has a thin mattress, no hot water, low water pressure, a loud old window AC unit, and opaque windows that block the view unless opened.
- Scooter and motorbike rentals are available directly from the hosts and described as being in good condition.
- The property is large, sits on the waterfront with a garden, and is spaced far enough from neighbours to stay quiet.
- The guesthouse is on the north side of Siquijor, which reviewers described as quieter and more remote than other parts of the island.

Where it is
Siquijor Circumferential Road, Sandugan, 6225, Larena, Siquijor, Philippines
The guesthouse is on the northern, quieter side of Siquijor, directly on the seafront with a walkable beach. The area is remote enough that a scooter is considered near-essential for getting around and exploring.
