Beachfront vacation rentals in Bicol

We were well accommodated by the host himself. The family served dinner and ate with us. If your looking for a native nipa hut accommodation in the Philippines, then this is the only place that gives you cheap but excellent hospitality. The locals treated us well and didn't take advantage because we were visitors. Definitely a place to stay by the beach and stay for a long time. Their place is not a tourist spot but there's a secret marine sanctuary next to them where you may go snorkeling and do trekking.

Went there but there was a storm, the place was still great for relaxing. Enjoyed swimming in the beach, I think the place would’ve been great if it was sunny. Hence, I will probably return in the summer. Host and staff were accommodating. Food was also good. No smart signal in the area. Wifi signal can be improved. Bring snacks since no supermarket near the area.

Very good destination if you want to stay at Virac, Adja and his family are awesome hosts, they will help you in any matters for you to spend the nicest days in Catanduanes! Thank you very much, we loved Happy island Inn!!

This was our second visit to Yollie and Mike’s home. We enjoyed their home hospitality and beautiful water views on our first trip there that we decided to come back a second time with our family of 18. Their home was as lovely as we remembered it with some recently added renovations as well. Food was superb as usual cooked by Ms. Yollie herself. I highly recommend it to anyone who would like to spend a night or two with great hosts at Subic Matnog. The island hopping and cave swim added to our enjoyment there as well. Whenever the time comes for us to visit Subic Matnog we’ll definitely stay at Yollie and Mike’s home again.

The owner has a nice collection of art from around the world. I especially liked the decor throughout the house and the use of color and natural woods.

Just a few things no mirror in the bathroom which made it hard to shave also no face cloths to wash your face in the morning and there was mosquitoes getting in the Cabana my wife was bitten many times I think you could solve that problem with door sweeps on the entrance doors because of the gaps when they are completely closed all in all very nice place the staff were excellent l would recommend this place top 10.

The place is amazing and very peaceful to spend with fulll family. It has kids play room and kid friendly pool that makes us comfortably safe the whole time. Jorge was very active and responsive for time to time queries and made it all easy. Ate Julie and Kuya Arnel (Caretakers) were very helpful aswell from guiding with the entire home till the local shops nearby. They even arranged for us a very good deal for Subic Island hopping Tour that accommodates my whole family as per our desired conditions. (This is not part of our plan but glad to experience it with their help.) Totally, the place and experience with the lonely home of Jorge was amazingly perfect. Kudos to the whole team!

Great place!

Super enjoyed our stay and the place is perfect because it is also located in the beach front and has own terrace. The internet connection is also super fast specially if you in a work from home setup while enjoying dipping in the beach. Just expect if it is peak month, there will be some noises from other neighborhood because other accomodations are just besides from each other. Luckily, We did not experience super loud music/sounds during night time so our sleep is perfect. All in all, great experience and this place is recommended! Thank you to the caretaker and the host. !

Loved our stay, even though it was a quick one—we were squeezing in lots of activities on a 2-day trip. The beach was peaceful and quiet. Slept like babies^^ The cabins are a short trek down from the road, and there weren’t any lights along the path, so we had to rely on flashlights. We were okay with it, but after a full day, it definitely felt longer. Kinda felt bad for the caretaker too—she had to trek up just for us when we arrived late. Would be great if the hosts could add some path/trail lights to make it safer. It felt more secluded than expected, but it turned out great. We checked in late after stops from Virac, and finding the place in the dark was tricky. (TBH, roads here in general have little to no lighting–don’t stay out too late if you’re not familiar) Tip: download an offline map (I used Google Maps) since most parts have little to no signal. For its price? Definitely worth it. A quiet and restful stay if you’re up for a bit of adventure~
