Find Places to Stay in Bantayan on Airbnb

I had a great stay at Arman’s apartment. Everything was amazing. They are great hosts . I recommend highly this place to future guests .

One of the best stays I had! :) Kuya Arman was really warm and hospitable. He was always a little extra! And their doggos Pretty, Princess and Scottie who welcomes us every time we come home and stays with us too. Such lovies! 💕

Best value!

Thank you Kuya Arman and Ate Nesthea! Super common sense and caring, everything we needed was provided, and if any additional, very willing to help and give. Thanks also for the local tips on eating and for the tour. Very welcoming and definitely best place to stay in Bantayan for a homey feel.

Superb stay! We will surely come back here for our next Bantayan visit.

Great place to call home when you're on holidays! Quiet, super clean, great amenities, comfy beds! Everything you need to recharge for the next day!

Very clean; the hosts are great! And responsive!

The place is great for people traveling in groups, you can cook and tambay in the house. It's just one ride to bantayan town proper, and from there you can go to the terminal to go the beaches. Everyone was very accommodating, we really had a great time in Bantayan.

The room is very clean and comfortable, easily reached from bantayan by jeepney for 10 pesos and they have a small shop on the doorstep, with food and products, at a very good price. As hosts they are wonderful, the family is great and they help you in everything, one of the best we have known in 7 months in Asia. Thank you so much for everything!!!!

Superb

This place is a nice place to chill after a long day in the beach. Very laid back and serene. Kid friendly too. You can star gaze in a hammock at 5 in the morning. Upon checking in you will be greeted with 3 friendly pups (scottie, pretty and princess). We were very much thankful for the owner too for being such an awesome host. This place is recommended if you've never explored the other side of Bantayan yet (other than Sta. Fe).

Very nice, open-minded, lovely hosts. Totally helpful and caring. Alone for that reason lonenswert because you feel right at home. The location is a bit far from the center, but with the super scooter, which you can also rent directly there in about 15-20 minutes to reach. Thank you for your commitment

The room we rented which was the nipa hut is very comfortable and clean. They are very hospitable, friendly and responsive to request. We had a great stay. I highly recommend this place!

I would highly recommend the place. It's clean and most especially the host is very accomodating. We have a great experienced staying in bantayan.

A super clean room and comfortable bed make all the difference after a busy day doing business!

It was all so good the place is perfect for unwinding. But the place a little bit far from the toursit spots. But its accesible and good Hoping to come back soon

Our stay at Batiancila's Apartelle was wonderful. Very comfy and very quiet ang place. Although the place is a bit far from Santa Fe, Kuya Host was able to attend to our needs naman when it comes to transportation. As for the host, very accommodating si Kuya, palaging nakangiti which is the kind of service I like. Two thumbs up!

Awesome experience staying. Too bad the owner is not there but overall the experience was great. There could be improvements on the AC since it didn't cool the room that much and the pending repairs on the doors as well could have been completed.

Best choice for your Bantayan escapade! Truly a home away from home.

One word: perfect! One word: perfect!

Nice design. House is good and host is kind. I like baby chicks and dogs. Eggs are fresh and delicious.

Great quiet place..

This place has a beautiful vibe. Everything was clean and perfect and the hosts were amazing. Arman even came to save us when our scooter had a flat tire in the middle of the night. He drove 40 minutes just to come help us. I highly recommend this place!

The place is very nice and clean, perfect definition of "a home away from home". Perfect place to relax after spending the whole day exploring the island. The advantage of staying here is, they can bring you to a place where you can buy very affordable and fresh scallops, crab, shells, fish and more. They also have convenience store right infront of the apartment, everything we needed was there. Kuya arman and his staff was very helpful, they always made sure we were okay. Thank you again.

Great location

Reymando was a great host and there was no trouble for me at all and helped me very well if I had questions. The place is lovely, it's literally on the beach and a bit away from the bigger crowds but still very close to everything you need. It's all walking distance but I can also recommend renting one of these older bicycles nearly everyone on the island owns. The best thing about the stay was that the small outside terrace in front of the flat is the perfect place to chill. read, or just watch the sunrise. Very recommended!

I liked very much the location, close to Santa Fe pier,Supermarket, restaurants,Kota beach. I'm very,they gave me to use a bicycle for free and could go around. Great communication with Reymondo,smoothlycheck in.I had nice stay there.

Amazing location right by the beach with a lovely outdoor area to take it easy or read a book. It's also right in Santa Fe so easy access to anything you need.

I rate it average but my wife loves it so I'll rate it high... Because happy wife happy life...sad wife...pain and misery the rest of your life. 😅

The host is accommodating and friendly. We accidentally locked the door and forgot the keys inside but the host helped us. The place is priceless. Though it doesn't have all the amenities you expect from a house, the view at the beach is beautiful! That's priceless!!

Nice place on the clean beach, close to the Restaurants and Bars. 10min walk to beautiful Kota beach.

Best host! accommodating!

Very nice and lovely family, a accommodation is really good, very good atmosphere! Thank you Armand and Nishtrea

Batiancila Apartelle was overall a great place to stay while venturing through the beaches of bantayan island. They have basically everything that we needed. The caretaker was also kind and patient enough to accommodate our needs. Kudos to the caretaker. I do recommend Batiancilla Apertelle if you plan on going to bantayan island.

Stayed again same outstanding service

Nice place to stay

I was so grateful for being clean and kind :)

You can look forward to a really clean apartment that is always conducive to unwinding after a day of business. Great shower and bed!

Arman and Nestea are a relentless kindness ... always smiling, available and warm. When we arrived they took us to the center of Bantayan, showing two three utilities; we found this very convenient and super friendly! The apartment is immaculate, by far the cleanest we have had during our month of traveling to the Philippines! They are always available to answer our questions, to exchange a few words ... We received hot water in a kettle (very convenient for coffee of the day :) and all our requests were accepted, they are very kind people! Their dogs are adorable, they made the happiness of our daughter who never tired of joy with them constantly. The location is top not in the center but 5 minutes by scooter from the central pad where you can find everything you need. If we go back one day to Bantayan, we will undoubtedly try the adventure at home!

We had an amazing time in Bantayan much because of Arman! He’s a wonderful host who does everything to make your travel smooth and nice. I would love to go back there some day.

Very nice house, very nice homeowner. The second time I lived in his home, due to the severe pneumonia in China during my stay, the booked air ticket was cancelled. Contact the homeowner for a few more days. The homeowner did not hesitate. It was temporarily added for another 6 days. The additional 6 days of motorcycles offered us free use. The neighbors are also very kind and without any discrimination. very touched! Highly recommended! !! !! The transportation is very convenient. No one can ride a motorcycle. There is public transportation to and from Bantayan (30P1 people). There are so many local crabs and they are cheap! About 40 yuan per kilogram. There are many types of seafood. Eat in Bantayan! !! !! The house is right by the sea and the shallows are very long, making swimming easy and safe. There are many interesting hermit crabs and beautiful non-toxic jellyfish in the water! !!

Would recommend highly to stay here . Beach is right behind the place.

The place is nice. About 20 mins from the market. The problem is there is no wifi. The caretaker said that it got broke due to previous renter. But overall, it is okay.

The landlord is super good. Take us to buy seafood. Help us. Very good stay experience,

Me and my group had a great stay at Kuya Leonardo’s house. They are very hospitable and very accomodating. We arrived a bit early and he allowed us to leave our bags so we can start exploring the island. On our second night, there was a blackout for about ~3 hours and Kuya Leonardo came to check on us to see how we’re doing and even let us use the karaoke for free! Yes, there’s karaoke! The house is a bit far from where most things are so I definitely recommend renting motorbikes. It just makes going around the island way easier. All in all great stay, perfect for big groups.

Though it’s a bit far from Sta. Fe where all the tourist spots are, place was exceptional!! We really had fun at kuya Leonardo’s place. It was quiet and peaceful. We enjoyed all the amenities. The caretaker was very accommodating and friendly, too. Thank you so much, kuya Leonardo for answering all my queries! You were very patient. We’ll come back soon ☺️

My family had a great time in sir Leonardo's place, just perfect for us, he visited us during our stay, his kindness and hospitality make us feel more welcome, and gave us also useful local tips, ate Cecil is very nice and friendly too, kuya Rolito too..thank you so much

The house is a great place for a big group of people.

Great location and so cozy. The beach and the sunrise is perfect!

Great location, a perfect place when you want to get away from the busy touristy area.

We really enjoyed our stay in your little Studio. Thank you Irwin and Jason for your hospitality. We felt very comfortable.

Great place to stay. Beautiful view!

Very private, safe and so close to the sea. You can taka a dip whenever you feel like it, or just chill out and feel the cold sea breeze. I also appreciate the super fast responses from both the host Irvin and caretaker Jayson. If you are hungry you can just walk to MJ Square or ride a tryk for just 10 pesos per person. Irecommend JZea seafood - its cheap and food taste good. There’s also Nuat Thai if you want to have a relaxing massage. Overall, i highly recommend this place for a relaxing and stress free break. Thanks again for hosting us.

Great for chilling this room. I had reluxing time during staying.

The location is great. It's really in close proximity to the shore line which for sure is what you came to see at Bantayan. The host and the caretaker were also very accommodating and helpful. What we truly loved about the place was the sense of privacy. You get to have your much needed peace and quiet at the comfort of your home away from home.

Great location.

Ma’am Joan is a great host, very nice and accommodating. The place is good and worth the penny. Everything is nearby, Kota/Budyong resort for example.

Nice place, good location, and very responsive host. We will definitely come back.

We enjoyed the stay at the little cottage very much. To cook our own meals, sit and eat on the terrace and enjoy the sound of nature, animals and happy people. The house is just perfect for a couple, not too small not too big, with everything you need. Wish we could have stayed longer:-)

Thanks comfy little house it was a great place to stay very relaxing.. The place is close to beach & restaurants.. They are also helpful in motor rental.. Lastly.. I love how soft their pillows I had a good sleep.. Thanks again.. We really enjoyed our vacation., 😊

Great place!! Will definitely come back again...

My son and I really enjoyed our stay. The house was very clean, on a quiet street with nice landscaping, great plumbing and solid wifi. You can't beat it for the price.

Excellent value for money- It is a nice little house, small, with kitchen, bathroom and a nice patio with a table. All very comfortable and very well located. They went to look for us at the port. Excellent wi-fi- All great! highly recommended!

The place is good, and they were responsive to our queries. They have a service tricycle with driver that could drive you around. They could also arrange tours for you.

Had a great overnight stay at Johanne’s Summer House. Great that the house was just a few steps away from the beach, we did not have to go to another area just for swimming. The area is also located within a local fishing community and we were able to buy fresh seafood for our lunch. A lifesaver indeed. Hope to stay here again next time. 😊😊

Worth every peny. It's not just a destination of choice but a destination anybody can call home. Highly recommended!

If you prefer a cozy little house over a crowded resort; if you appreciate being surrounded by nice neighbors, being a minute's walk from a sublime beach, having a small garden, taking hot showers, having a super-available host who asks you every morning if everything is fine, etc. , this is the place for you. Close to restaurants (on foot) and especially in the heart of a really cool little neighborhood. Johanne arranged everything: tricycle waiting at the port, then with whom we organized all our trips on the island for "normal" prices. In short, a - real - little paradise (and I could compare a lot of Airbnb in the Philippines).

Awesome place, Clean and spacious, owner is very kind and hospitable.

Everything was great about the stay, Literally, our home away from home.

We chose this place for its location (a hundred steps from the beach) and its great outdoor space. We were six travellers and Johanne was kind enough to accommodate an extra guest for a minimal cost. We came with four bicycles and the outdoor space of the summer house is more than enough to accommodate our bikes - it is even more than enough for us to pitch a tent but we didn't have to - Johanne provided us with extra mattress so that we were able to sleep together in the summer house. During our five day stay, we mostly hung out in the Cabana - we played Catan there, we ate and drank wine there. Jelly, Johanne's caretaker lives next door and was very helpful. She helped us find island hopping and land tours, offered catch from the local fishermen, and found us a local to do our pedicure. Communication with Johanne was very smooth - I was very busy before the trip and was unable to check on my airbnb account, Johanne was very kind to reach out to me and provide check in and other details for the trip. If ever we would cycle in Bantayan again, or even for a family trip, we will surely drop by and once again stay at the Bantayan Summer House.

We had a great time staying in this place. The ambiance is so inviting and homy. I recommend this place for travelers who are on a budget because you can cook your own meals. The place is very secure and it’s just less than a minute walk to the beach.

We were honoured to be Johanna and Morse's first ever guests at their Bantayan Summer Home. They described it accurately in their listing as "Inspired by minimalism and eco-friendly living". Morse met us at the ferry terminal, and provided us with transportation to their summer house. He gave us a complete orientation of the property, introduced us to the neighbour lady (who also became our friend) who generally looked after the daily maintenance of the property. We met most of the neighbours in this little micro community, all were very friendly and helpful. The bed was comfortable, the shower always had warm water when needed, and Alexa provided every song request that I threw at her. (she would also tell us the time in the middle of the night when I was too tired to open my eyes, and she told jokes on command!) The white sand beach is indeed close, and the water is clear, warm and inviting. You can walk the beach all the way to the ferry terminal if you wish, or stake your claim to your favourite spot anywhere in between. There were never any crowds to contend with. We had only one small problem with the water (it ran out) but that was due to the fact that the place is new, and the cleaning lady misunderstood the process. Morse showed up promptly with a repair man, problem fixed, and since we were out for most of the day, we hardly knew there was a problem. I recommend Bayan ng Santa Fe to anyone who wants a simple and relaxing time that offers the local Philippine island-living experience while still enjoying the comforts of "home". We loved it!

The bungalow is clean and arranged. Mitch's area is also secured and near to the beach. You can also buy stuff nearby.

Will choose this place if ever I visit bantayan again. ❤

This bungalow is nice, new and clean, it is a short walk to the beach and the main restaurant area

The place was much better than we expected, the house is very well made, the air conditioning works well, the hospitality was wonderful. The house is bigger then it appears on the pictures. The place is located near the beach and near the restaurants. The neighborhood is clean and safe. The hosts helped us with the transportation from and to the ferry, also the they made the arrangements for the scooter rental. Highly recommend this place!

I was amaze during our stay together with my partner. The house is simple, i like the style it feels like you are in a cottage but nice inside. I can say we have a beautiful stay. We even cooked. The place is quiet. Close to the market, beach and grocery store. And thank you maam Mitch how I wish we had a 2 day stay on the island. Overall I love the place.

Highly recommend. Clean place near the center. Thanks Mitch!

The bungalow was so clean, well laid out, close to the beach, shops, restaurants and town centre. We loved the privacy, beautiful green space and sense of a home away from home. Mitch was nothing but accomodating and assisted with local tips, directions, currency exchange which was super useful as all the ATMs were offline or out of funds! Would definitely recommend and sad to leave. Thanks, Mitch!

Highly recommended place to stay!

Nice

Had a great time here. May mga kukang lang like basahan when you enter the room and no cabinet where you can organize your clothes before leaving. The breakfast is good pero mejo malangaw sa dining area. May complimentary drinks sila na coffee and may free service din. Overall rate is good.

This was a really nice stay. The location was perfect. Really near the beach and local shops and restaurants. It was clean, quiet and comfy. The free delicious breakfast every morning made it even better. Staff was also very helpful.

When I arrived at the dock, I helped pick up. The room is clean and the location is 2 minutes from Kota Beach. 5 minutes away from the city, it was easy to eat. Wi-Fi is very well connected in the room Breakfast was delicious. I also connected to the Virgin Islands Tour and it was available for 1,000 pesos. Overall, it was satisfactory Airbnb. However, the bald guide, who is not related to the owner, bought us 300 pesos because there was an entrance fee to go to another island.

A nice apartment in a great location, within a short walk of the restaurants and the beach. The caretaker was very helpful. And it was great value.

Thanks for the nice stay! The place is walking distance to lots of restaurants and the WiFi in the building works very well. There was a blackout for about an hour on our last night there (1:30am), but the lady there offered to give us a flashlight. Overall, it was a nice stay. ☺️

The staff is really nice and a hard worker. The bed and pillows were better then most places in the Philippines. I enjoyed the this place.

Thank you Ate Flor for our wonderful stay! She provides tips on how to get into the island. Breakfast is also superb! More importantly, the unit is very clean and equipped with heater!

House is nice and clean. Hosts are welcoming and helpful. Unfortunately, on our second day, there was a brown out. We just swam on the pool to cool off.

In order to better describe this house to more Chinese people, please allow me to use Chinese description. The location of the house is very close to the dock, about 2 kilometers. But the urban area is far away. If you like lively city life, then this is not suitable for you. The room is a large, open-plan room with a full range of cooking tools. It is difficult to have a separate air conditioner. Most Filipino homestays are window machines, which is noisy. This is very good. There is wifi in the room, but it cannot be connected during the day because of the power outage of the base station, but the signal is very good from 20:00 to 9:00 in the morning. There is a small swimming pool, my son loves to play here and makes good friends with the host's children! From here, renting a motorcycle and booking the Virgin Islands are very convenient and cheap! The landlord is a very nice person who also adopted Filipino orphans and looked after them to give them opportunities to go to school. Because when I went to live, it happened to be a serious domestic epidemic. Although I lived in Beijing, not Wuhan, and have been playing in the Philippines for a while, the landlord has not looked at the Chinese differently, and because he has been to China, he is now facing China. I am very concerned about the epidemic situation, I wish Wuhan, China, through the difficulties. We talked very well. Although I have some restrictions on spoken English, I can still feel their enthusiasm. Thank you very much for the three days here. If I bring my family to Bantayan next time, I will definitely choose here again!

The room est perfect. Aircon without noise Good beds Good bathroom Farina us really Kind and helpful

We had a blast staying with ate Carina. She is very accommodating and very hospitable when it comes to her guests. She gave us tips on how to get around in the island. She even gave us hot rice since we forgot to brought any. They also have a boat rental good for 15 persons and motorcycles that is very cheap! All in all We enjoyed our stay and will likely to stay again if we come back to the island

We had a very nice stay with Carina and her family! It was the perfect place to stay on Bantayan. We loved how Carina made us feel welcome by giving us advice on where and what to visit on the island and helping us with the transportation. She was always attentive to our needs with a very good mood and a big smile. The house was perfect! It was very large, very clean, and very cozy - basically the perfect place to stay on the paradise. I highly recommend it to everyone and if I could have put more stars I would have done so. Thank you very much again for everything Carina. We will see you again very soon for sure!

Really clean place. Nice hospitality. Away from busy sta fe but only 8min drive from there. Will recommand it.

Host was easy to communicate with and the place is a bang for the buck. Room was spacious and clean and has everything you need for long stays. The place even has a pool! Would have stayed longer if not for our work in the city haha. I highly recommend!

Loved,just loved it. The owners are always smiling and welcoming. The place is sparkly clean, comfortable beds, spacious, kitchen with all supply to cook, fridge, free water unlimited.. and it's really close to santa fee and pier but far enough to be quiet.. you need a scooter to travel down there or tricykle. Pool was fun😊 Thank you for an amazing time!!! We will be back!

Very nice, clean, and cozy space. Everything was as advertised. Nice location and a good value.

The room is correct, has air conditioning, place to leave things and is very clean. Great attention and they are very friendly

Great place! food is good.. staff are warm and hospitable.

The place is totally worth it. We were really satisfied with the stay we wouldve stayed longer if not for other schedules. The place is a minute away from the best restaurants and the beach. Their cafe had healthy options and had island merchandise. The vibe is what you look for when retreating at a tropical paradise. The crew was amazing, they were hospitable and helped us with our planned trips around the islands. Definitely coming back!🤙🌊

The house and their room is very clean also the bathroom. We had breakfast and lunch at Every Sunday Café and the foods are good and affordable.

Quick responses from the host and has a stylish interior design. I love the vibe of the place. It is both homey and beach-like. We were the only guest at that time which makes it feel like we own the whole place. Their cafe serves great and healthy foods as well.

What you see in the pictures is what you get. It is really forty steps away to the beach. 😊

Mai was very accommodating given that my booking was of short notice and they're very responsive as well. Everyday Sunday provides you that chill vibe providing you with that weekend homey feel. It is strategically located along with different establishments making your stay hassle-free. Top it up with choices of healthy meals provided in their cafe at your convenience. Definitely, I'll stay again here.

Very nice apartment! Everything is clean and new, fully equipped kitchen, nice balcony! 5 minutes walk to the beach. For such money, just a godsend!

It is just like the photos, good location and quiet

Enjoyed staying in stellans place tho I havent met him only his wife sister who catered and took care on everything we need. We enjoyed and will surely be back soon again!

The place was better than what we expected and all appliances were fully functional. But there was a minor confusion going to the place as we were brought to a different “Juanita’s” but eventually found our way to the right place. Overall, would definitely recommend this to our peers! Thank you! :)

Very comfy and safe as well.

Expect a clean and comfy place to stay. Complete with all the kitchen needs for your vacation. The place also has a decent wifi connection and cable tv. It is also near the beach which was very convenient for us. Ate josephine was also very accomodating, even changed the towels on our fourth day. :) thank you!

Bantayan island itself is a great place. This house is very pleasing. The place provided gives you a lot to do with utensils for food, a refrigerator, a functioning television with shows to watch. The host is responsive and its location is really great. It’s near to the beach and the eateries. I highly recommend this place if you’re visiting the island

Clean and stylish space. The host is very responsive to our queries. Their kitchenette is complete. You can cook anything. Ate Josephine was very kind and hospitable. The place is also near from Kota Beach - a plus! 10/10!!!

We had a pleasant stay at Moonage Daydream. Booked 4 nights there. Everything was as shown. Clean, spatious, quiet, close to the ocean with a wild and uncrowded beach, one close restaurant, aircon and wifi worked well, bath with nice design. Had the generator up when there was a short power outage. Host was great providing us with directions and contacting for transport when needed.

Moonage daydream was an absolute beautiful place. We stayed here for 2 nights and were very happy. Spotless clean, great amenities. Hospitable host and it was in a good location, few minutes from town but in a nice remote area next to the cliff jump. Would definitely recommend.

We stayed in the place for two nights, and we can truly say thay Moonage Daydream is a dream and a rare find. The location to Patrick's home is remote enough to enjoy your privacy but close enough to get to the town proper, where most of the activity is. This beautiful home is also by the cliff side, which also gives you a wonderful view of sunrises and sunsets, and a private spot for a dip in the sandy beach below. The place is spot-clean, and we love the simple intricate touches and trinkets that adorn the home and the open space of the balcony on the second floor. Patrick is a very accommodating host, and he goes out of his way to make our trips in Bantayan island more convenient by helping us sort out our transportation needs. Will definitely be back when the opportunity once again arises!

We had a great stay! A special access to the beach in front of the and a very cozy place!

Loved this beautiful place! Having a breakfast at the veranda while taking a sip of my coffee is the best. Patrick's place has the best view and calmest air in Bantayan. Will definitely recommend it to my friends. Thank you for the hospitality and for suggesting us with your tricycle driver :D

A great place to stay in an island full of bliss! great host, clean place and a very exquisite view! 😍😍😍😍

Patrick is a wonderful host who is very kind and sweet. His hospitality made our trip very memorable. The place is sparkling clean and it is so quiet. I think its the best spot in the island to think. The decor of the place captures the laid back vibe of the island so well. Just relaxing in his terrace will calm down anyone. The view is spectacular I can argue that the sunset and sunrise in Moonage especially if viewed from the terrace is the best view in the island. We would always go out in the morning just to stand by the cliff and drink coffee because its so tranquil. I loved the location of the place. Its a little far from the town proper but with kuya Ricky it wont be too much of a hassle going into town because it only takes around 10 mins. A little walk from the property you can already see the The Ruins which is a famous tourist spot in the island and you can cliff dive there as well. What I loved about the place is it has its own private beach when its low tide. Even if its high tide if the waves aren't that strong you can swim near the cliff and it looks like your own private lagoon. The ambiance of the place is so serene. If you want the local experience booking this Airbnb is definitely what you want to do. Going home to a house like this feels like your living on the island yourself. Also just booking everything through kuya Ricky or the numbers Patrick provided will give you a cheaper rate compared to the hotels. Really great value for your money!

We had an amazing stay, sir Patric was an awesome host, he value privacy so much and the place is spot on. The place is near the best destinations in bantayan, so near that the ruins is just literally around the corner. He has his motorcycle guy if you need one and we got an awesome deal since he knows the guy personally. Great balcony view. Got an amazing spot just outside the house where you can go for a quick dip. Highly recomended.

Michal and his family were really polite, helpful and kind, his village was trully experience for us in Bantayan.

Super man !!! Excellent reception, good value for money. Great homemade meals with fresh produce. Scooter rental. Spacious and clean accommodation. I recommend without any hesitation.

absolutely outstanding thoroughly enjoyed my stay it's a fantastic experience. Michael and the family were great hosts. Thanks my friend

Michael is a host full of warmth and friendliness; always listening and great availability ... It allowed us to discover not only his island but also to live great moments of sharing with his pretty family in the countryside far from the urban tumult ... At home we feel like home. Filled with delicious meals both during breakfast and dinner (fish seafood vegetables ... a wide variety ...) every day different ... Very good value for money So book quickly at Michaël to appreciate you too ... and discover the authenticity in all its simplicity.

It's just an experience that I want to have in Airbnb. Michal is so nice, passion, kind and welcome. Stay few days aren't far far not enough to explore the beauty in Bantayan island. The room is really unique, so nice and clean, it don't need aircon cause the natural wind is so much better. It's really stay in a small village, you can sew everyone knows each other and so welcome. Michal takes me to the local market, it's so crazy, lots of different kind of seafood, decently try some of them. He also told me a secret beach. When I arrived, there is nobody there. I enjoyed snorkeling alone in the sea. It's amazing. You only need few minutes to ride a scooter to the downtown in Senta fe. So good. Definitely will come back to stay for more days.

A fantastic and authentic AirBnB experience. Michal and his family are incredibly hospitable and welcoming and couldn’t have done more to make my stay a memorable one.

Michal and his family are brilliant hosts: friendly, welcoming, helpful and extremely caring. It is a small place with simple, but cozy rooms, a super comfortable hammock and located in a a charming garden. They are equipped with a outside kitchen, washing machine and also rent out motor bikes. Auntie Bibi's meals are very delicious and the night fishing with Papa is a unique experience. If you like interactions with locals and want to experience and learn about authentic Filipino culture, it is your place. Thank you, Michael and family, for a wonderful time on Bantayan Islands!

We stayed first 2 nights at Michaels place. The surroundings are incredible. The beach is only a few meters away and it is an absolute unique place to enjoy a local experience. Michael and his family are absolutely adorable and they make you feel like family. Michael is so helpful and you can also join his father in law for a night fishing experience or a healing massage from his mother in law. There is a kitchen for use and a washmaschine. This home stay is one of a kind and you should not miss it! Thanks for having us Michael! :)

It was such a good stay! We enjoyed to stay with you guys! I could ask for nothing better then this stay! Thank you!

We enjoyed our stay so much. The host were very accomodating and hospitable. They made sure we are okay. The place is clean and nice. I highly recommend this hostel. Thank you so much.

Tita Loudette is very accomodating and sweet to her guests.. She make sure we are comfortable during our stay. On our way to their place her husband sir Sammy is picked us at port as their additional service to their guest...The place if clean and spacious and also very serene a perfect place for vacation.Most recommended place to stay at Santa Fe Bantayan :)...

We had a great stay at Casa Cielo, it feels like Im still at home because there's a kitchen, dining area and a room which a hotel cannot offer. The bed is really nice especially if you'll rest after exploring the Island and the place is well ventilated you don't have to worry much. Since the island is also known for cheap seafoods, you could also cook at Casa Cielo. Hosts treated us like their own family, they have been communicating to us about our needs or any help they could offer, they give you a tip on where to explore too and we weren't disappointed by their recommendations. They also fetch us going to their place from the port v/v. All in all I would definitely be back renting their place since we had a great experience with the place and the hosts ❤️

Value for money. This place is really awesome if you want to have a quiet place. Although the unit is a bit of a walk but its worth it. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!

Place is nice at a very affordable price. Host is very accommodating. Will definitely book here again on my next visit to Bantayan.

Hey guyz! If you want to have a great experience on your stay in bantayan island, I recommend Casa Ceilo. Maam Loudette is a superhost, the place is great and clean, you can cook, you can chill at the roofdeck.. Amazing..

Loudette and Sammy were the most outstanding hosts, of the type that make airbnb an amazing community. The house is beautiful and brand new, located outside of the city centre, but within easy walkable distance to it and the beaches. The house has all you need for a confortable stay, with a myriad of small details for confort. The hosts made us feel welcome, were always available and caring for our stay. They even picked us from the port and cooked us a home meal! We recommend this place for a confortable stay in Santa Fe.

Very pleasant stay. Carina is a very attentive and kind hostess. She was able to give very good advice and be attentive to needs. Address highly recommended!

Perfect!

Lovely apartment, European standard. Loudette and sami are very helpful. Quiet, next to jungle, so lots of birds and animals. Recommended!

Clean, quaint, private, and peaceful. We really appreciated everything the host did, from trying to meet us at the pier, to talking with us about the areas we could go to. Would book a room here again for our next Bantayan trip. Thank you again po!!

Very nice person, she does everything she can to help you have a good stay

Very welcoming, helpful staff, big clean room, we really enjoyed our stay!

I had a good experience staying with Lorife's hub. The accommodation is good and her team was very helpful. To have a better feel of being local, try renting a motorcycle to roam around the island and enjoy their view. Lorife's team will be gladly to help you in finding one.

Our stay at Tita Fe's house was like staying in our own home. We were welcomed like we were a part of their family. Rooms are spacious and clean – definite worth the price we've paid for. What's memorable for us was, she was happy to cook us packed lunch (for a small fee) for our island hopping. Thank you!

Great value for the price

This was a very nice place to stay. The hosts were very nice and made us feel like we were family. The next time I visit Bantayan Island I will definitely be staying here.

Excellent host. Very nice and service minded. More confort than expected in the place. Very Nice and strategic location. Near the beach as well. Thanks Gina

The place is clean and spacious. Walking distance to the beach and the market/establishments. Highly recommended! 👌🏻

Good location.

Clean and affordable place. Good location, right next to the center of Santa Fe Bantayan Island. Quite and full of friendly animals :)!!

Good place to stay in Bantayan. Ate the caretaker is kind enough to offer us a tour and motorbike.. I enjoy our stay here. Also the place is near in the market.

Ate Gina and Ate Christina were very welcoming to us. They provided us a contact with the motorcycle we used. The place is also located near to the beach and places where you can eat. Thanks for a great stay ate Gina.

Friendly caretaker, and specially to Ms Gina, she gave all the instruction before we get there, They helped us for our Island Hopping and Land tour, Very accessible to restaurants and the beach, the room was so clean and nice to stay where you can cook your food inside and if you are looking for a nice and cheap room in Bantayan Island Gina’s Tourist Inn is Highly Recommended! Thank you so much!

Was a good unit with good views. The hosts and the caretaker were helpful and responded fast. Would consider staying here in the future. Thank you.

superb! excellent... hopefully we can go back again soon! best place!

If u visit Bantayan, i highly recommend you staying here. U can cook bbq at outside and enjoy the night of here with ur friends or family. House is so beautiful and perfect!!

The room has a perfect view day or night, at the comfort of its own veranda just outside the room. It will never fail to make you stare in awe of God’s creations. Ms May and Sir Kenneth were the best hosts! Everything has their own personal touches - from responding to our queries when we booked the room, to picking us up at the port, and even cooking our food! It made us feel at home instantly! Manang and kuyas helping around were as hospitable as Ms May and sir Kenneth too. Overall, we had our most amazing 4 days and 3 nights staying at this place. We already miss the view!!!

May was the best host i have ever had. We felt that we have got another mom in our stay. I highly recomend this place with the beautiful view for the sea in the morning from the bed and the delicious meals what she done. The best choose in Bantayan for stay and eat is this place! She was very kind and helpful!

Hi Ms. May, thank you for accommodating us in your lovely home. It was such a paradise for us because the place was very calm and the view was very stunning. The room is clean and really comfortable to stay. I want also to commend your great food especially your own baked bread. It's perfect. Until next time! We really had a good time. Appreciate too your being hospitable to us. :)

We had the best stay at May’s abnb. She and her husband are such wonderful hosts. They offer pick up and drop off arrangements to and from the port, May offers free breakfast and prepares meals for lunch and dinner which she cooks herself, the room is also very clean, and the view from the room is absolutely beautiful. It’s not near MJ square or the other restaurants but like I said, May prepares lunch and dinner and all her meals are delicious. If you enjoy a little bit of quiet and privacy, May’s place is absolutely it and more.

Hands off to a very spectacular host during on our stay at Bantayan. Place is superb clean and nice for such a wonderful cozy place to sleep during staycation. May’s cooking is much more better than the restaurant we ate outside and good things is t’was prepare by so much passion of love in cooking and the food was absolutely delicious and healthy. Breeze every hour makes us more felt comfortable like we are at our own home. So much hospitality from the couple and even for the guy who’s assisting May’s concern with our daily assessment. All in all is so much magnificent. Will probably be back soon and highly recommended to all our there. Thank you 😊

Maywas a great and helpful host! The location and the room are perfect for couples who are looking for quite place on Bantayan. For those who want to visit Santa fe you can do it with tricycle or motorbike (10 mins). You can eat there or at Mays place. P.S. May is cooking much better than the restaurants in Santa Fe. I hope to see you again. Salamat po!

This is a very beautiful place right on the white sand beach. The room was very comfortable and sparkling clean. There are facilities to lounge in or out of the sun. The meals that May prepares are the best food around. She really has fantastic culinary skills. A motorcycle was arranged to explore the laid-back island. This is truly a great relaxing and refreshing place to stay apart from, but convenient to the village of Santa Fe .

Hands down- the best host we’ve had! Our stay in Bantayan would not have been as amazing as it was if it werent for her. Not only was the acoomdation fantastic, her hospitality and food were also tremendous. The mango shake, adobo and homemade bread were as fresh as they could get. 20/10 would very highly recommend !!!

Max place is a home away from home. It has a kitchen and a super nice balcony where you can relax and have a sumptuous meal.

When we first stumbled upon this Apartment on AirBnB, it seemed almost too good to be true. There must be a catch! But everything was as perfect as it seemed online and it was even better. Max is the most thoughtful, gracious host. He provided us with all the information we needed and showed us around. The flat is just perfect! Kitchen is compact and contains everything one needs. The bed is very big and comfortable, bathroom and terrace are excellent. Location is incredible. Max had excellent recommendations and was of great help. He went way beyond to make our stay comfortable and memorable. Thanks Max for a wonderful week! We will be back, Tom & Ana

It's a nice place a bit away from the beach. Max is a great host.

Thanks Max for having us in your place. You're are so wonderful host. You didn't mind going out to find us when we got lost in the area. Thank you for keeping us safe.

Max is great!

Thank you

Very accommodating. Nice location. Will definitely come back.

The host was very patient with us and very friendly. The space was large enough to accommodate us. I'd stay here again. Thank you for the warm welcome.

Everything was perfect. Amazing hosts, very quiet and peaceful. The food & drinks offering were great. The dogs were a lovely surprise (Panki & Bongo, bark like real guard dogs but little softies really) If we go back, will be booking back here!

Johannes, Richie and everyone are accommodating. The ambiance of the place is very relaxing. Accessible to beaches by motorcycle. Perfect if you want to escape the busy city and embrace the nature. Room is spacious and comfortable. Comfort room is clean. Richie and Ate Riza are good cooks. We enjoy the breakfast as we are also full before exploring the island. Definitely, will come back.

Hans and Richie are very attentive and smiling. His accommodation is amazing, full of relaxation and privacy with nature. Everywhere is very clean and tidy. Richie is cooking delicious pancakes! You can easily get to the beach by bike or when you reach the road you can take the rila for 25 pesos (if you do not drive the bike) in the evenings you can relax in a hammock on the terrace, from where an awesome view of the starry sky opens!

Han’s place is really nice and clean. Friendly atmosphere with a beautiful place tucked away from the busy highway. Not far from Santa Fe, nice beaches, or the local lagoon. The food is delicious as his wife Richie knows how to make western food as well. The best part has to be his adorable niece Jewel who greeted us every morning! A must stay on Bantayan.

Nice family resort, located by the sea in a fishing district. Clean and secure. You will be greeted by a friendly team who will do their utmost. No restaurant on site but the possibility of having breakfast or having a beer. Nice place!

It was great! Quaint, private and comfy. A little bit away from the bustle of the main activity area, but we rented out a motorcycle to be able to travel. Also very PWD friendly.

very clean and the host were hospitable and very respectful.

The place is so nice. Better than i can imagine. The staffs are very friendly, i even want to have breakfast with them bec I was alone. The tropical, island vibe in this resort is awesome! The host is very accomodating too!

Really great folks

The room is so cool, I like the design. 😊 I run out of cash and all the ATMs are offline but they allowed me to check out trusting me that I will send my payment thru palawan. Thank you so much! I just hope credit card will be accepted in your establishment in the near future.

All good

The place was great, it's very artsy if you want to try a different experience. The caretakers/housekeepers were very hospitable, fast, hard-working and very friendly. They even offered to clean the room everyday. Although, Bantayan Island is covered in natural abundance that includes insects so naturally you won't avoid bugs and the likes. All in all, St. Bernard is a great place to stay if you are in a budget because it's a 5-min walk to the port through the beach and a 5-10min ride to town, and 10min to some private beaches in bantayan.

The location is perfect. A few steps from restos with good food. Few minutes from the beach line. Place is clean, comfortable, secure, and the care takers are hospitable and very friendly.

Nice and very affordable place to stay! Best location! Very near to the beach and MJ square! Quick response!

Nice and clean rooms, near to Restaurants and Beach...Bella and Dodong are really nice and always helpful....

Great place to stay with! Room is specially made to relax and chill 💗

Great place and people

Overnight was very good

Solid place to stay in Santa Fe. Close to plenty of food options. WiFi was pretty slow.

the place is great. very accessible to MJ square and other restaurants. and also walking distance to the beach

Adrian's place was much better than I expected. The location was perfect, it was just a walk away to Santa Fe's beaches, hubs and restaurants. Overall, the experience was awesome. It was truly a great stay. Good job Adrian!

The place is very cozy and the host is very hospitable.

Adrian's place is one of the best bnb i saw in bantayan island, He is very accomodating and very helpful on giving tips about where to eat and to go on the islands.He even pick is up on the port for free. Highly recommended if you would like to stay at bantayan island.

Good location easy to access to nearby tourist spot

Adrian has been a great host. He was very helpful with all our questions about Santa Fe, and just about everything. He shared our home with us, welcomed us with great hospitality. Highly recommended! Also, Adrian helped us get us the best motorbike rental rate during our stay!

Very accessible. Host is very accommodating.

The place is amazing. Especially if you want a peaceful and quiet environment. You also have the whole house to yourselves. Totally worth recommending

Excellent service. What you see is what you get. We had a very comformtable stay and we will rebook in the future. I recommend this place.

Nice place near fishing community! The locals are very kind and hospitable. The place is clean and very good beach facility.

We enjoyed our stay here in the AC room. The huts are set within a community so you get an insight into into island life. Staff were friendly and helpful. Only downside was mold in the bathroom, and the room smelt damp. To be fair it's hard to manage humidity in the tropics!

Great place to stay, really close to the beach, and very helpful staff.

Nice and clean big Room with balcony and aircon. We will book again.

Super close from the beach and really not far from Santa Fe town. Mini mart close by, beach at 50 meters and clean. Room super clean and comfortable. We really enjoyed our time here

A great place to relax and unwind. I enjoyed my vacation in here and it's worth it.

Great place directly at the beach. Really nice and helpful staff. They can help you to organize nice daytrips on the island and provide good food at the restaurant

This is the place where you can relax.

Absolutely lovely place to stay. We loved everything about it. The beach, the food, the cleanliness and the hospitality and helpfulness of our hosts. We extended our stay and warmly recommend it.

The place (Resort) is much better than we expected. The host is very much accommodating, just like we owned the place. A place where you can find Tranquility and peace, simply you can relax. Thank you Meryl and to your husband for being so kind and hospitable. God bless

Room is clean and the place is near the beach.

Nice clean old style room Shared ok bathroom Cool location and great terrace Very nice host Recommend!

It's a pretty decent place. 👌

Nice place for the family away from the village center

The place we have stayed is much more than we can ask for. Mr Jun was very accomodating and took really care of us. As a first timer to be in Bantayan, he even help us out with the tour around the Island. I would highly recommend this place. Its near the beach too. Such a good find.

I’m sure you will surprise everything you wii experience at this place. The house owner, Jun, has a great kindness and hospitality. He always takes care of us and help us. He arranged everything we want to, like island hopping, seeing around island,and taking us great restraint. Everything we experienced here was amazing. I highly recommend you should book this house!! オーナーの方は凄くいい人です。満足のいく旅行が出来ました！

We had a great time here. Jhun, Vilma and Roxan were great. Very hospitable and kind. Jhun took his time to pick us up from the port (without us asking). This was impressive - a true Filipino hospitality. Jhun showed (drove) us around - that was awesome since we were not familiar with the area. Jhun, Vilma and Roxan helped us make our homemade meals. I am impressed of the hospitality. I can go on and on and on..... :) The place is very clean, homey and near the beach. I love love love my morning walk still in my pj’s (whooops, TMI). Thanks again guys for your hospitality.

I don't know how to express my gratitude about this trip, the house has surprised me a lot with complete facilities and clean environment as well as the reasonable price. we were seven in total which is beyond the limit six, whereas kuya and ate still gave us extra bed without any complain! I was always saying thanks to them because of their kindness, patience, and hospitality. they aided us too much so that we had an awesome experience and avoided troubles! I would literally recommend this house to all group tourists cuz I know you guys will have a good time as the same as we did!!!! I truly wish I could go back again some day!!!!! love ya!

I loved this place and recommend to travelers for short or long stay. I was there for 30 days and enjoyed the whole stay. Fantastic hospitality and wonderful neighbors. The roof is an incredible place to chill and get a tan. The beach in front of the house is not optimal for swimming but there are plenty of nice beaches on the island. Jun (landlord) was available and was quick to fix small problems that appeared during my stay. We had seafoodparty on the veranda and even sang kareoke together. Good times! There is a small shop about 100m from the house where you can buy simple/basic things. Quite close to the house on the road there are also good BBQ options quite cheap. It is possible to rent a motobike in connection with the rental of the house and it is very smooth and needed for you to get around. It takes about 5-10min to drive into Sta Fe center where most restaurants and bars are located. Jun met me on arrival and drove me to the ferry when it was time to go. Very appreciated! The ferry takes about 1 h 20 min. Costs about 200 pesos. Bus/Van from Cebu to fery takes about 3h 30 min depending on traffic and driver. Stops halfway for a short break. Costs about 200 pesos. Taxi for the same distance ( about 2h 20 min) costs about 1200+ pesos. If you are considering renting this place, then do it, it's worth it. Enjoy!

I picked you up and booked my hopping, I made hopping really cheap. Also kind until the end. Most importantly, the front of the house is the best place to take a photo. The flowers and palm trees in the spacious yard are really nice. The size of hotel is bigger than photograph. Host picked us up from port and reserved our hopping and it's cheaper than others. the best thing what I saw is background of house that was really beautiful and it's good for pictures. I thing house is bigger than pictures. if you catch the house you can enjoy beautiful sceneries :)

The apartment was in a great location and close to the beach. It is an easy walk into town but far enough away that it is very quiet in the evening. She’s a great host and a great apartment

Maybe the best Condo in bantayan

There was ants by the window and bugs. The bed had some dirt on it. But overall it was a good stay

Everything was great, good central location and very quiet

We had a bit of a struggle finding the place at first. But the area is peaceful and quiet. It was sparkling clean. The host was kind enough to let us put our stuff inside since we have arrived way earlier than the check in time. Close to the sta. Fe center as well. Great stay and highly recommended. ^_^

My friends and I are very satisfied with the place, very clean and private. The place is very affordable as well plus the staff is very accommodating.

Great host. Very accommodating. We were well taken cared of. Great place. Wifi working and good. Comfy bed and sofa. Felt like home. Thank you, Robert
