Hotels in the Philippines

Exceptional couple offering you the luxury of a quiet retreat in a beautiful island. Both Virly and Xavi made us feel at home straight away and have been nothing but lovely for the entirety of our stay there. They are running this very homey resort with a great sense of hospitality, always ready to answer our needs and giving advice or just simply having a chat with them because they really are great people all-around. And then you'll also be able to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the small island village with turquoise water and bird singing and can do a star gazing session while in the swimming pool in the evening. Thumbs up to Virly also for her delicious and homey cooking (we loved the baracuda fish). If you're looking for a peaceful and beautiful place to rest in total simplicity, this place is just made for you.

we loved absolutely everything

I travelled with several family members to Kalanggaman Island and found Bellavista as the closest and nicest place to stay. The front desk manager, Heaven, greeted us and took care of all of our needs during our stay. Mae, the housekeeping manager was also very nice and helpful. The 2 bedroom family suite with full kitchen and living room was excellent as was the king suite.

The place is nice, beautiful and relaxing. And the food is good.

Our stay at this hotel was nothing short of amazing! The rooms were incredibly spacious and provided a comfortable and relaxing environment. Being right at the beach was a huge plus, making it easy to enjoy the sun and surf during the day and watching hundreds of crabs walk along the sand in the evening. The staff were all lovely and welcoming, adding a personal touch to our experience. A special thanks to Macel for his exceptional hospitality and for making our stay truly memorable. We can't wait to come back!

I like the good vibes in the property. The owner/manager of the resort are very good host!

Wonderful! We booked 1 night in this really cool beach bungalow and it was so good that we extended our stay for 3 days (and got a good discount). It was right on the beach and felt like we were on our very own desert island, waking up to the sound of the waves and taking a swim in the fantastically clear warm water before breakfast. We didn’t see any tourists at all on the beach, just some locals taking a walk and kids playing in the water, it was surreal after staying in Boracay with all the crowds and noise! The staff gave us snorkeling stuff for free and David the owner led us out to see the incredible variety of coral, which started just a short distance from the beach and though we saw many varieties of fish, it seems that there were many more before the pandemic, but the locals have decimated the stock as there was no work for them. But the starfish were prolific, we counted 10 different colors including some really bright blue ones, but be careful of the sea urchins, they’re only on the coral, so don’t swim over the coral at low tide. Ely took us for an island tour in this amazing 6 seater off road UTV, it could go anywhere and we took off road tracks to cliff jumps, deserted beaches and caves, this is a must, which you would never find if you hired motorcycles. Now the restaurant on this fantastic balcony (or you can eat at the beach bar). The food my god was soo good, Malou and the other staff were such good cooks, with both local and foreign dishes, don’t miss the yummy spicy spareribs, the stuffed baby squid, the curry, the adobo and of course the seafood; simply delicious! We wanted to stay longer and wished we had come here first and not bothered with Boracay, so sad to leave and will defiantly be back and skip the Boracay stay!

We really love Casa Basa, the design is absolutely stunning, modern and clean. The attention is particularly special all the time. They rented us the best moto in the Philippines, super new! The location was also ok to go by moto or tricycle to town. Highly recommended 😀 exceed our expectations, hopefully we can repeat!

I like the free transfers to and from the airport, and to and from town. I LOVE the cleanliness of the room, the heated toilet seat, the kitchen with complete tools and utensils, and especially the super helpful staff. They are very kind and accommodating, and very prompt with all our needs. The location was GREAT. It's just 3 mins away from the airport and it's like a compound of hotels and restaurants. Finding a place to eat is so easy with so many options. And if you're vegan or vegetarian, you have a lot of choices around the hotel. They serve only vegan and vegetarian breakfast in the hotel, btw. Our room (a loft) is very spacious. Beds are very comfortable. Housekeeping also cleans every day. All in all it was a great stay for our family.

This is a gem of a hotel Staff unbelievably friendly and helpful Room and bathroom excellent for the money Food very good. It’s right on the beach in Station 3 which can not, in fairness , be described as quiet but it’s a lot more peaceful than station 2 Lack of a pool not a big deal A great discovery for short breaks if you live in The Philippines I will 100% be back

Beautiful and comfortable rooms at a very reasonable price! I don't think there's anything like this on the island 😊 And the owners are very cute and helpful and keep a very warm environment in the place!
