By far the best thing about this place is the staff and owner. Really friendly and kind..they made the stay so enjoyable. Location (for us) was perfect..peaceful area away from the crowds. Hired a moped for our stay and explored most of the island.. the rooms were quiet and comfortable and cleaned daily..highly recommended

A little paradise
Our stay in Kalachuchi was just perfect. The staff made everything so much easier. Need a motorbike? Consider it done. A really early check-in because you took a ferry at 2am, no problem. A massage to relax from your dives? The masseur will come directly to your little house. On top of that the food was delicious and the beds just perfect. We will definitly come back again if we are lucky enough to be back in Siquijor.

A real Island experience
The owners/managing partners and all the staff were all nice, friendly, and professional. My spouse and I felt they genuinely cared about our well being. The property is beautiful, quiet, and quite secluded. The food made in the restaurant (including complimentary breakfast) was delicious and of high quality/freshness. Their kitchen is spotless. We ate almost every meal here during our 12 nights stay. We rented a scooter at the ferry terminal (Siquijor) and hired a tricycle driver to take our luggage to and from the property. It is essential to have a scooter for your stay imo as it would be difficult to find a tricycle once at the property. This property, as with much of the island, have limited to non existent cell phone coverage; so don’t expect to have cell reception. Wi Fi did not work in our first room assignment, but the staff quickly moved us to a room (Sampaguita) that had the strongest Wi Fi, as it was essential for us to have Wi Fi. The restaurant and pool/beach area had good Wi Fi also. Rooms have no coffee/tea, but can be purchased in the restaurant. Room does have a small fridge, and we were provided with an electric kettle upon request to boil water for the tea/coffee we brought ourselves. The corrals in the ocean are about 200 metres from the high tide line, but once you trek out there with your snorkel, it is an absolutely stunning place to snorkel. We enjoyed the tranquility of this place.

Petit coin de paradis calme - une pépite!
Petit coin de paradis calme dans un immense jardin luxuriant, on s habitue très vite a notre bungalow intimiste. Tout est fait pour se détendre pleinement, le personnel y contribue largement. La qualité du service et son environnement en fait notre coup de coeur, notre pépite de notre voyage aux Philippines.

Very unique Swiss style accommodation houses with an incredible amount of detail attention in cabinetry and bathroom versatility. The design of the property in itself is unique and there isn't anything left to be desirable. Most of all for special requests the owner is helping in any way possible. For us this was preparing special meals, providing transportation and renting a motorcycle. The beach has a small but impressive coral reef for snorkeling while there's also a fresh water swimming pool with ocean view.

Nice stay at beautiful island very friendly staff
Great experience. Super friendly people. Service comes at first. Met the owner, friendly Swiss gentleman living already 41 years in Philippines. Wasn’t busy, only us and two other ladies. Hope more travelers will find this nice place, so they can generate enough income to keep on maintaining this small resort. We rented two scooters through reception and ezplored the island. Great experience. For food the make whatever you like

Thank you for your kind review. As we are part of the remote side of the Island, WIFI can be very limited. Brownouts are also common in the Island, which interfere good flow of hot water. We are looking into improving this matter. Thank you for your stay and honest words.

Personnel aux petits soins
Nous avons passé un excellent séjour dans cet hôtel. le patron et le personnel sont aux petits soins. Tout est parfait sauf 2 petites restrictions à savoir une connexion internet très compliquée et la présence de locaux pas toujours très agréables. Pour autant le séjour reste très agréable dans un environnement paradisiaque et une nourriture d'excellente qualité

Nice location if you want piece any quiet. But remote from restaurants and beaches. Must have a scoter to get around but that’s a part of the charm staying at this island. The pool doesn’t look 👀 to good due to not so clear water. Staff was friendly and the food was good.

客室はコテージに泊まりました。ファミリー大人2人10歳子供1人で宿泊しましたが、十分な広さです。 室内も清潔です。 シャワーも水量もあり、温水。 トイレもペーパーもあり水洗です。 フロントやレストランまで森を歩いて行く感じで少し距離あります。(プールも) 夜(日が沈むと)あたりは真っ暗で、何もないので、静まりかえってます。 ホテルの場所が、シキホール港からバイクで1時間ぐらいの場所で、周りには何もなく、本当に何もないです。日が沈んだら、真っ暗なので、日暮れまでにはホテルに帰り、ホテルでゆっくりした方がいい感じだと思いますが、 ホテルレストランも8:30PMでクローズなので、他にやる事もなく、、自ずと夜は早く就寝になりました。
