Wow, what a treat. Mavy opens up her whole home, with guest 4 bedrooms on the top 2 floors & western toilet for guests on 1st floor - everyone shares the shower room downstairs. Water is delivered in tanks so water conservation is very welcomed! Such a warm and lovely lady - I feel like a made a friend and got to really get a feel for the place 😊. Her home is 5 minutes walk to the magnificent Maligcong rice terraces where you can walk through to the other side and the local village proper… there are a small cluster of other houses nearby but that really is it (think nearest restaurants/shops for food/coffee shops -anything bar basic snack hit- back in Bontoc 1 hour away). If you’re lucky, you’ll see the villagers planting or harvesting etc. If you want peace and quiet/ or wonderful hiking in a rustic environment then you’ll love it. For food, make sure you let Mavy know a day in advance if you’d like her to cook for you (which was lovely simple foods) as she’ll need to get it. If you’d like to cook yourself, grab your food in Bontoc before you get the jeepney up, and she’ll let you use her kitchen! She also helps arrange great local guides - absolutely fab. You can do culture tours in around village proper or hike the local mountains etc!

Vilma's homestay was my best and favorite accommodation in the Philippines.
Vilma is so nice, she really makes it feel like home. She's a great cook as well and can prepare meals for you at a very reasonable price. She will make everything for you to enjoy your stay.
You have your own guest house where everything is so comfortable and brand new, cute and cosy wooden furniture, 2 balconies overlooking ricefields 😍 (picture 1 view from the doorstep)
If you are looking for peace, quiet, beautiful landscapes and good food -->> it's the place for you!
Malingcong should DEFINITELY be on your list to visit, amazing ricefields that are every bit as good as Banaue's. But there you will have the chance to discover an untouched nature and authentic charming villages.
The view from Mt Kupapey is stunning, and was my favorite in all of Luzon (picture 2), go there for sunrise.
All in all, I highly recommend this underrated barangay.
If I come back one day to the Philippines I will definitely be back in Malingcong and at Vilma's.
Bonus : on my hikes the cute dogs from the house followed, it was so nice.

Travellers on a budget looking to experience a place like a local will enjoy homestays. This simple accommodation is in a private home, where the host also lives. All facilities are shared and in most cases breakfast is included.
Vilma's place was very clean, comfortable and relaxing. Vilma was very welcoming and friendly and provided us with many tasty local dishes as well as plentiful tea and coffee. The location provided great opportunities to meet with the locals and to experience the Malicong rice terraces during the cool of the early morning or in the morning.
We had a perfect time at Vilma's Homestay. Vilma is a perfect host. Friendly, helpful and trustworthy. She cooked vegetarian dishes for us, which were delicious. She also organized hiking tours for us to Malicgong and Mainit. The room was really cozy. We had a wonderful time, would to book again and can highly recommend the accommodation.
Best to book Rowena's when you're planning to hike to Mt. Fato and Mt. Kupapey in Maligcong as it is very near the jump offs. You can also ask Rowena to book a hiking guide and prepare breakfast, lunch, and dinner throughout your stay. There is a parking area if you plan to drive to Maligcong. It is a homestay not a hotel so manage expectations. Still it has more than adequate facilities, hot shower was a lovely surprise.
Nanay Vilma was so accomodating. Loved the toilet and showers. Food was great- homecooked by nanay, location is so close to the beautiful rice terraces and Mt Kupapey. Nanay can arrange/contact tours for you. This homestay is giving very homey vibes. Would recommend!
It felt like a genuine homestay allowing you to gain a better understanding of how people live in this part of Luzon. Vilma was very friendly and helpful, arranging local guides to facilitate visiting the surrounding countryside and rice terraces. Everything is very clean and good meals are provided upon request for very reasonable rates. It's located immediately alongside the start/end of the steep jeepney ride up from Bontoc.I really enjoyed my stay and would thoroughly recommend Vilma's Homestay.
The hospitality was superb. We really felt at home, we really had home vibes. The tea and coffee was amazing. Home cook food by manang Vilma was great. The whole house was tidy and clean..it was a great experience at Vilma homestay.👍☺️
Best homestay we've been!
Vilma is such a lovely and caring person, she cooked us 3 meals a day (breakfast at 5:45 am) and her dog Tyson guided us through the rice terraces.
Comfy bed, nice little room, beautiful terrace to enjoy coffee and really good food.
Love to visit her and her homestay again!
