    A seaside oasis with bohemian flair and exceptional hospitality.

    My stay at this hostel was absolutely delightful! Waking up to the gentle caress of the sea breeze and the mesmerizing view of the ocean every morning was simply enchanting. The hostel exuded a captivating bohemian vibe, adding an extra layer of charm to the experience. The staff members were incredibly warm and accommodating, always ready to assist with a smile. As someone who appreciates the simplicity and closeness to nature, I found the tents to be impeccably comfortable and impeccably maintained. Overall, it was a truly memorable stay that exceeded all expectations.

    I loved it here. Perfect to arrive. Super nice bamboo house, nice pets, great staff, got invited to eat everyday, nice beach with Sandbank where you can walk out, chilled and comfortable, clean, hammocks to chill everywhere, sleeping to the sound of the ocean and the motion of the waves, nice art, street with shops and canteens very close. You can book tours there. Owner is very helpful. Cheap transport to the airport.

    Great place to stay in Puerto Princesa with amazing host and people, working there. I was with my 11 years old son, and we felt very welcomed and safe there. They were able to create homely warm atmosphere in this place. All facilities are very clean and nicely decorated. It is close to airport and you can ask for transfer, which is very convenient, since we arrived late evening. Jonathan helped us to organize transfer to El Nido and to Sabang with short notice and for very good price. Thank you guys for everything! Hope, we will come back again one day.

    It's shared facilities but at this bargain price only to be expected. Noise could be an issue if other guests want to party on late.

    Host was very helpful and offers a superb quirky selection of accommodation. Our first stop from Manila and couldn't be more contrasting. So calm, friendly, laid back and relaxed. We stayed in the family room with balcony and sea views with a refreshing breeze off the sea. Don't go expecting 5 star luxury but get clean, comfortable accommodation with super friendly staff, superb setting at a bargain price. It's of bamboo construction so sound proofing is what it is, so be prepared to be woken by watch dogs, cockerels, birds and the sunrise. Beach is swimmable at high tide and a mangrove sea grass nature reserve at low tide. Wear surf shoes if you object to squelchy sand underfoot. Plenty to look at with wading birds, fishermen, sea eagles and rollers breaking in the distance. Staff often provide free food and there was a jamming guitar session on Saturday night. Thoroughly recommended.

    Jonathan and the staff were amazing. Really unique place all made of bamboo. If you are lucky and you are there on a Saturday, you'll be able to have some drinks and listen to the owner's friends play the guitar and sing. Was fantastic

    Ask for James the chef for your morning breakfast!

    Everything but the late noise parties are definitely it’s downfall. Unless you party yourself! Ear plugs are highly recommended!

    Nature lovers, great value for money

    • Stayed 3 nights

    At high tide the water covered the walk-way to the hut but it is worth getting wet. At low tide (in the morning) it was a 10-15 minute walk in the marshes to get to the sand bank. Great for nature lover but can be a bit mushy.

    Breakfast was not included. The facilities was very basic and natural. It was comfortable, quiet and close to nature. The staff was friendly, helpful and accommodating. I stayed on the floating boat house and the waves lolled me to sleep.

    The tent can get a little stuffy. But each tent has a fan and most nights theres a good breeze. But the tent in the nest is part of the experience.

    I read the reviews and knew i had to stay here. Not to mention it was among the most cost friendly. Jonathan was very kind and helpful. The staff were amazing. hardworking. Chill but professional. Theyre actually part of the bamboo nest experience. I was intrigued by the creativity of the bamboo nest. Its such a unique idea. Hammocks by the water are the best. Moving to el nido, i wished i had just stayed here instead.

    Not many food options around other than local food (which the staff walked me too. Made me feel very safe as a solo female traveler walked back alone felt very safe) Lots of animals but all very friendly (and no they didn’t bark in the morning) I wore an eye mask but could b bright on the morning

    The staff and facilities were so unique and fun Very clean and Tidy Clean bathrooms Clean living areas Amazing views Can walk out to sand bar on low tide Very relaxing Apparently whale sharks can be spotted when in season As a solo female traveller felt very safe and welcome
