    This place is great and I really enjoyed my stay, but it is definitely not for everyone. If you look at the photos and read the description then you should know exactly what you are getting into. Cold nature shower, outdoors, no ac, etc. Staff was very kind. The included breakfast was yummy and so is the family dinner if you chose to participate. They have a small little shop with some snacks on property which is nice. The location is out of the main tourist area, but that’s one reason I really liked it. There is a bus you can take from the main town out to the hostel that is cheap and easy enough to navigate. It is great if you can ride a bike or can find someone who will drive you around, but if not, they do offer tours and tuktuk services. I stayed in both room types. Upstairs is open air, a covered deck, with mattresses on the floor. More comfortable than I expected but it was full when I was there so a little bit cramped. When I extended I moved to the room with the hanging beds. It is enclosed and has an en-suite. I thought the hanging beds were super cool and I was glad I got to try it out. The seating/common space was large. Many hammocks, chairs, hanging benches. The dinners really brought everyone together. Most people staying opted in for that which was really great. Had a nice stay and would recommend this to anyone who is remotely interested. I was on the fence about it, but I’m so glad I chose to stay here!

    Words can't fully express how much I love this place. Even after experiencing a scooter accident during my stay, I received exceptional care from the staff—especially from Fede and Renne, who truly felt like angels, helping me recover in no time. The entire team here is incredible, always ready to assist with a warm heart. Everyone I met was so kind, making this the best hostel I've ever stayed in. I genuinely miss my time there.

    A very special hostel in the heart of Bohol. Location is amazing, in the hills. Value for money is exceptional. The staff are so kind. The family dinner is 200 pesos and easily some of the best food we have had in the Philippines. It is magic to go to sleep listening to the crickets and wildlife and the rain on the roof and waking up to the chickens. Loads of chilling/social areas. Breakfast tasty. Thank you to all the staff, we hope we will be back one day

    Only problem we faced was the very long and frequent power cuts! I think this is an island wide problem so not the hostels fault but it was annoying.

    We absolutely loved this hostel - amazing atmosphere and beautiful nature location with the dorm room open plan, lovely to hear the rain and jungle sounds at night. The ladies running the hostel are amazing - so friendly and helpful. Bike rental was easy and they offer breakfast daily which was great, and the family dinner every night was exceptional.

    Nothing, I extended my stay because I felt so good in this peaceful paradise.

    This place is amazing ! The lifestyle here is very close to nature, without compromise on coziness and cleanliness. There are hammocks in the common area, hanging beds in one of the dorms, a deck to practice yoga or sip your drink while looking at the coconut farm, open air showers,… The staff is very friendly and super helpful. Chickens, dogs and cats move around freely. Nice breakfasts included, lemongrass tea and instant coffee available for free all day, and social vegan buffet dinners for 200 pesos. Amazing sites to explore around the island with the good quality scooters of the hostel, and Juan even teaches first-timers! The place is sort of open air, so dorms don’t get stuffy, but since there are roofs everywhere you can chill comfortably even on rainy days. Thank you Renée, Juan and the team, I’ll sure be back if come back in the area!

    Love the outdoor feel, so green and surprisingly no bug bites. Great places to chill/ do yoga. Amazing breakfast and family style dinners which are also the best value/ local meals we had in a month in the country. Good social hostel so ideal for solo travellers.

    Location was quite remote, not near any restaurants/atms etc. but this isn’t a problem as there’s breakfast and dinner at hostel and it’s easily accessible by bus!

    Super friendly staff who organise lots of activities for guests. It’s such a cute little hostel right in the outdoors, so peaceful and relaxing. The facilities are excellent and kept very clean and there are lots of social common spaces to chill throughout the day. Family dinners were incredible and free breakfast and coffee too was a bonus! Highly recommend!

    This hostel felt like home and made me fall in love with Bohol. It’s so green and beautiful, and it just makes you feel relaxed as soon as you walk in. Location is very convenient to explore the island, and it’s nice that everyone comes together to eat breakfast and dinner every day. The staff are amazing and will help you organize any activity you’d like. I was truly sorry to leave this place and wish I could have extended my stay

    I had a hole in my mosquito and got stung on the forehead but apart from that, it was a good experience

    Nice space to relax hostel it’s like a small family feeling when your there the grounds are amazing and there’s lots of activities to do. The highlight of my trip was walking the dogs which you can do if you ask the owners they are really friendly and loved to have some attention. Also, the family dinner was vegetarian but amazing food probably the best food I’ve had in the Philippines all for a small price

    Nothing! However, I think your time here will depend on the consideration levels of the other guests because it is such a shared space.

    Renee and Christine and wonderful. This place is very special and I really enjoyed my time here. The hostel is very open design which isn’t for everyone, but I liked the camping feel. The vibe was very social which I loved as a solo traveler. The family dinner every night is amazing and lets everyone connect. This hostel will forever hold a place in my heart. <3 I would love to return.

    This place is magical. As soon as you arrive, you feel right at home. All the staff are very helpful and attentive; they offer you plenty of activities like going to see the sunrise, cooking classes, or yoga. The highlight is the evening meal: everything is vegan, organic, and comes from their garden. A real treat! If you love nature, delicious vegetarian food, and animals, this is the place for you. Thank you for everything!
