I had a wonderful stay at Gjes house !
The place itself was clean, comfortable, and in a great location, but what truly made my experience special was the owner. She went above and beyond to make me feel welcome, always kind, attentive, and ready to help with anything I needed. Her hospitality made me feel at home, and I’m truly grateful for her warmth and generosity. If you’re looking for a place with not just great accommodation but also a personal touch, I highly recommend staying here!

This place was well run by well trained staff and they were always happy to help, with a smile.

Palmera Palma was a beautiful stay in Moalboal. Perfectly located being very conveniently close to the main strip while being very quiet. Joanne was extremely helpful in organising day trips like canyoneering and the sardine run. Would 100% stay here again

**Location & Accessibility:**
The hotel is located down a bumpy, rocky dirt road that’s difficult to navigate, especially without a private vehicle. Catching a taxi or ride-hailing service is nearly impossible, so transportation is a major hassle.
**Room Conditions:**
- The room is cramped with no wardrobe or storage space for clothes.
- The door lock uses a tiny, flimsy key that feels unsafe for securing personal belongings.
- No air conditioning—prepare for warm nights.
**Noise Issues:**
- **Wildlife sounds:** Tokay geckos (tắc kè) call loudly at night, which might startle you awake.
- **Early morning disturbances:** Dogs barking and roosters crowing as early as 4-5 AM will disrupt your sleep.
**Verdict:**
This place is only suitable for those who:
✔ Aren’t light sleepers.
✔ Don’t mind *very* basic, no-frills accommodations.
✔ Want an "authentic" countryside experience (with all its challenges).
If you need comfort, security, or quiet, avoid this hotel.
Warm and welcoming guest houses are ideal for travellers who prefer unfussy accommodation with a personal touch. They are usually family-run, and your host will provide local recommendations and optional meals. Often cheaper than regular hotels, guest houses can also feature a cosy living room and a garden.
Great location close to Kawasan Falls, and you can book your canyoneering (and many other South Cebu tours) through the resort. Rooms are clean and well maintained. Staff are friendly and helpful. High quality and reasonably priced food in the restaurant.
Our host Josephine was very nice and helpfull with booking when we needed it. The House is located in a charming garden far from the noice of the city. Great value for the money.
Great place to be. Nice room, nice staff, nice host. Every meal was delicious. We really enjoyed our trip.
Perfekt breakfast options and the pool was just lovely.
Good location with gated parking and very good service.
Just near lambug beach. Staff was very accommodating and friendly. The room and bathroom was spacious and has a mini fridge. Fast wifi and pool was great.
The resort has 6 rooms which was great if you just like peace and quiet and wants to relax.
Tours and activities offered.
Bear is amazing host. We were welcomed with some fresh water and few fruits. They were incredibly helpful and they provide us many information of what to do in Cebu. The last day my friend became intoxicated and he was the same one who offered to go to the pharmacy to buy medicines, very grateful for everything he did for us. Very good energy and good people in that place. Highly recommended
Exactly what we’ve been looking for. Quiet, beautiful nature, super nice hosts and team, high quality in every aspect. Very reasonable price for all that beauty. Superb restaurant with lots of veggie options. Highly recommended for everyone in the Moalboal region.
Very nice host, very friendly and very quiet place. Not far from the canyoneering. Very helpful with everything (buses, tours etc)
Beautiful place with their own kitchen where you can cook and a massive gym where you can train. Very close to the beach too
