I stayed here for 4 weeks in April - May 2012 and found a home away from home as the owners Trevor and Jo, and of course Max the German Shepherd were wonderful and made us feel at home for our whole stay. The resort is very relaxed and all the staff are laidback, friendly, and so helpful. Santa Ana... More

This resort is one of the better resort in Sta. Ana Cagayan. The rooms are simple yet clean, just the basics. The restaurant serves good food . Especially liked the Vigan longganisa served during breakfast and their own version of pinakbet. As an added facility, they have a small swimming pool. Staff has been very helpful in our day trips...

We have been to Jotay 3 times now and every time we go the owner Trevor goes out of his way to make us feel at home. He sorted out boat trips for us over to nearby Palaui Island and was a great source of knowledge of the local area. The beach at the front is not great but there... More

I have been to Jotay many times. From the first 5 minutes I arrive there I feel like I am in my home away from home! The food is excellent, staff is always helpful, they remember my name from my first visit and beer is always cold. What more could you ask for. Waking up in the morning looking out... More

Never again. The only reason this resort is known to many travelers is their advertisement. As soon as you get out of the airport, there are already signs that entice you to go to this place. Horrible rooms. Prison cells and a motel in one. Sewage smell as soon as you enter the rooms and the room spray does not... More

As the owner and manager of this resort I wish to answer in detail the comments and statements below. To show my sheer disbelief in this review I have printed this whole answer in full and posted on the notice board, and invited the guests we have at this time to add any agreement or comments that they have, without...

I was so surprised to find this kind of resort in this part of the country - homey, clean, aesthetically pleasing. More than that, the price of their rooms were affordable and the service was great. The staff were all willing to help us with our needs. They were amiable and they laughed at our jokes. The rooms were clean.... More

We spent some days in the room 1 (deluxe room) and it is probably the best one for a couple. You can take your breakfast ahead of your room, with a view of the swimming pool. The staff is kind and especially the owner, Trevor : he was able to organise a banka boat trip and advise us some beaches... More

Trev and Jo are perfect hosts in this outpost of northern Luzon. We rated the food, accomodation and service very highly. Room A/C works well and on-site laundry service is terrific. The beer is really cold and filtered water means no worries about ice in drinks. 24 hour security service. We really appreciated transport service arranged by Jotay to and... More
