Hotels near Lugnason Falls, San Juan

This resort is a gem for it is not common to have backpacker-friendly places that offer the resort experience. Located right in front of Solangon Beach but when tide is too low for dipping, there is a swimming pool where you can hang out. There are hammocks too if you are in the mood for lounging. There's a restaurant serving food and beer. If you want options though, other resorts are within walking distance and accessible along the beach. Staff are friendly and ready to answer questions about boat schedule, tours and even laundry service (priced at Php60/kg). Most of their accommodation are cottages but one big room is converted into a dorm with shared shower and toilet that are kept clean. Room is well-ventilated but there are stand fans if you have low tolerance for heat. Unlike typical hostels though, they do not have outlets/light in each bed. Siquijor mostly operates on cash but this is one of few places that accept GCash.

Bungalow # 1 is certainly the best in the resort, situated in front of the beautifully designed palm garden with views of the beach and water. The large terrace with beautiful baskets and two tables invites to dream - from bathing in the sea. For unfortunately, there is rarely the possibility of swimming here. Even in the case of floods, this is hardly possible. A spacious room with large double bed, sufficient staining for the baggage, air conditioning and ventilator, broad window and slide door. A kitchen with refrigerator and water cooker; cups, glasses, water, coffee and tea are ready for this. The shower is large enough, hot water comes immediately. With no better alternatives we eat almost always here. The small selection of food is good and cheap. Unfortunately, the service is quite different, depending on the respective ladies. It often takes quite long to be observed, sometimes ordered came only on demand. A very strong dispute was particularly disturbing one afternoon when a Swedish owner's familiar shouting spread unrest in the neighboringalow. Then there was another police operation in the evening, when she had to leave the area with the ambulance. Price / performance was okay, for a ”Very good” it is not enough because of noise, lack of service and lack of swimming. Wi-Fi is available in the restaurant area.

The hotel has a beach, the room has a pot and induction cooker, you can make something to eat yourself, the front beach room is very good, and the triple room in the back room is a big bed, which is a bit embarrassing

Near to the beach ( there’s a shortcut to famous beach), friendly and warm service, clean and huge place to stay. Thanks so much.

Wow! An amazing place and experience! The location and scenery at this small and very cozy resort is difficult to explain beyond “AMAZING”. On a cliff, overlooking Apo island and amazing Sunsets! Lounge in the pool for some unearthly sunset views and star gazing. They staff were OUTSTANDING! So friendly, helpful, very attentive, made us feel at home. The food at the restaurant was so delicious and fun. HOMEMADE ICE CREAM! Best food we had in the island in our 18 days on Siquijor. We booked at Kayawan for only 3 nights. We could not leave! Repeatedly extending to eventually 13 nights there. The stair case down to the ocean, descending along the cliff, is so unique and beautiful. Easy to snorkel and it’s beautiful. Though I had injured my knee before arriving to Siquijor, I was still able to do some scuba diving (I want to do more!). Very nice dive site and the dive shop on the property is very nice and well equipped with new gear! We stayed in an ocean view villa. WOW! So comfortable, classy and fun. The bathroom is “outside” through a back door of the unit. So fun, luxurious and unique. It is an amazing design feature which my words can not capture how nice it is. Just fun showering (very privately) outside! Oh, and I would be remiss if I did not say they have the best scotch/whiskey selection I have seen in the Philippines. Especially outside of Manila. Wow! (Rumor is they have already replenished much of what I consumed 😱🤣🤣) Siquiijor is now my favorite Island in the Philippines and Kawayan is my favorite resort! (NOTE: they do not recommend this place for children, and as a father, I have to AGREE! You are on a cliff! There are rails, but these will not contain a young child!!! )

The best value for money on a beautiful white fine sand beach in the Philippines. Plenty of quality places to eat within easy walking distance. Cool beachfront cafes with cheap ice cold beer. Crystal clear warm water to enjoy a swim all year round. Lots of interesting places to visit on a local tricycle. Rooms big and comfortable beds. Free filtered water. Great spa pool, children’s pool and swimming pool. Very helpful and cheerful staff. A perfect place to get away from the huge crowds in El Nido. Coron, Bohol and Boracay in particular. As a travel and tour operator for over 30 years, now retired, this is up there with the ideal family run resorts. Not too big and impersonal. Get there now as it will grow and be ruined by the huge crowds one day.

It feels like a very new resort, next to the beach in the south and a well-known local bar in the west. The environment in the room is super good and the rooms are very large. Each room has a set of outdoor tables and chairs, clothes rails, a swimming pool in the middle. , And you can watch the sunset. It's just that the Internet isn't working. The entire Siquijor Island hotel, even if the coco network is not good, collapses.

Travelled yesterday to Siquijor, and unfortunately, the hotel I booked is 45 minutes away from the port. I found this haven online. I went there and luckily there's one more room available (20 mins away from the port) Surprisingly, the room is in front of the beach!!! sliding doors made of glass made it much fantastic. They just have fan rooms, and electricity interruption on a daily basis for only 15 minutes. They have wifi at the bar and resto but phone's reception is not good here. If you're looking for a place to relax and get away from a stressful city, this spot is perfect. To make it 5, hopefully they'll have rice meals that's good for one pax only. Food are really good, except the weird sinigang (pork tamarind soup) with carrots haha. Staff are friendly, especially ate in the morning taking care of the restaurant. They know English, tagalog and their dialect. Overall I am happy and wanting to be back there again soon. :)

LOVED our stay at Coco Grove. We are not fans of large resorts, but this is an exception. Even though our first 2 nights the resort was full we did not feel like there were lots of people. The property is huge, villas and rooms are spread out amidst lush tropical foliage, there are 3 different & good sized pools in different areas. 3 food outlets. A decently equipped gym. A nice gift shop that doesn’t mark up the items exorbitantly—we found it very reasonable. Very well planned resort. Staff are just lovely—very sweet, attentive and helpful. Everyone. From drivers, front office, restaurants, spa, cleaners, gardeners, guards, lifeguards—all really just genuinely nice. I greatly appreciate how the staff are kind to animals too. Went to the Spa 3 nights for massage—ask for joy—I had one of the best aromatherapy massages from her (2 nights—my first and last; the masseuse I had the other night was mediocre). And if you prefer hard massages ask for a Swedish deep tissue massage from Fretzel, she was excellent according to my partner. We stayed in an ocean villa. Very spacious with a good sized bathroom with separate shower and bath tub too. There are also shelves and closets to hang clothes. Rooms are cleaned daily which we appreciate (if you don’t want yours cleaned daily let them know when you check in). It was wonderful having the beach & sea “at your doorstep.” Our stay was very peaceful. The Sanctuary Villas are at the opposite end, near the spa and in a bit more private area, we’ll probably request that for next time. there isn’t anything wrong with the Ocean villas (which are near the dive center) it’s just there was more foot traffic in the area than in the sanctuary. Internet is good in some areas and weak to none in others. Food is ok, portions are good. Decent selection for breakfast. For vegetarians the vegetable curry in Salanandas is good, Thai inspired better than at the Beach Bar. The fries and the stir fried vermicelli noodles w vegetables at the Beach Bar were better than the fries and the vegetarian pancit (these noodles were thicker) at Salamandas. Don’t forget to say hi to Macky, their rescued Brazilian Parrot We’ll be back, coco Grove is on our list of favorite beach resorts!

We had a nice stay here and as a couple, we stayed four nights. Overall everything was nice. Rooms: The rooms are basic and clean. The shower is a modern power shower and is easy to use and to get whatever temperature you wish. The windows are privacy (reflective) during the day but not so at night so you need to pull the curtain. The balcony is nice and big with a view of Lee the pool area which is really nice. The bed mattress is comfy. The furniture is minimal and basic but does the job. Staff: We are at the adjoining restaurant two nights, and both times it was nice; one night I had a pizza and the other I had the seafood pasta ‘al dente’. Overall, pretty good Italian food when I compare with Italian restaurants in Ireland or Italy. The staff were very consistently nice and welcoming. They all helped us with any issues/queries or requests we had. We rented a scooter for some of the days too and the staff looked after us with regard to this. Other: The pool area is nice and chill, but could be kept cleaner due to a lot of bugs constantly drowning in it. However, it was still nice. The place has a generator that kicks in a few seconds after every power cut which was very handy and necessary in this island. Areas for improvement: - A safe for the rooms would be good - For the price you pay compared to other more luxurious accommodation, I think breakfast should be included here. It is not much effort for them to provide this, as they are primarily a busy restaurant who does a great trade here. - Pool could be cleaned more regularly - The area for parking the scooters/bikes near the side door should be upgraded to a hard surface like asphalt or concrete for a safer and easier place for guests to park bikes (gets full often and currently is just soil and rubble on a slope). - One small thing was I requested a small jug of milk for the coffee in the room as in Europe we don’t really use creamer much in coffee. I was charged for this. I thought that was a bit mean. - The selection of gelatos we thought was quite poor, but maybe it is tailored to local taste. Usually, a gelato counter has a lot of the classics like cheesecake, forest fruits, cookies and cream etc.
