My fiance and I just spent 8 nights at Casa de la Playa in Siquijor, and had a wonderful experience. Casa de la Playa is located on a beautiful and very quiet stretch of beach. From the front porch of our beach front cottage we could see the islands of Negros Oriental, Cebu, and Bohol. There are no vendors on... More

It is cheap and the accommodation is pretty basic. But when there is no electricity it is dreadful. We arrive during one of the many "brown outs" that the island has faced since last year's typhoon. I had called twice before arriving, but they neglected to inform me about this. However, as we discovered from other travellers, who stayed in... More

We stayed at Casa de la Playa for 5 nights. The place has a lot of character since the owners have built it all themselves, little by little. Very clean, good service and our house was great. The food was ok, not outstanding but there were a lot of options for vegetarians. I liked the health conscious/environmental conscious nature of... More

I found the resort's quirky decorations a lot fun but I guess it's not for everyone. Our very basic cottage was cute but the bed could have been sturdier. It was easy renting a motor bike here and the staff was friendly. How ever, the restaurant was disappointing. Vegetarian burger was just weird and the yogurt included in one of... More

Everything seems to go smoothly in this slightly hippie-ish place. Houses are comfy, restaurant is decent but not outstanding (with plenty of vegetarian options), they arrange affordable transports to/from the port and rent motorbikes in-house. As is often the case with these resorts, you have to order dinner in well in advance, but that's normal. Chili non carne (with seitan!)... More

the people working here are really nice and accommodating, however, they are under staffed - food takes more than 1 hour to prepare. when we got to the resort, we had to wait 3 hours for the room to be ready. moreover, only a few items of the menu are available. prices are good though, quiet place.

Casa de la Playa is a perfect place for some relaxing days. The houses and the restaurant are situated in a nice tropical garden. We one of the newer aircon rooms. It was great: tip-top clean, spacious and nicely decorated. And it had a big terrace facing the sea. The only drawback of this place is the beach. It is... More

There are very few budget places to stay that I would call destination hostels, but this is one of them. If you get a cabin on the sea, you can walk out of your door down a couple of steps and into the water at high tide. The sea is beautiful and clear, and is the only noise that will... More
