Location
We are conveniently situated on the western side of the island by the national road right on the beach, only 15 minutes from Siquijor Town ferry terminal and 10 minutes from Siquijor new airport. Restaurants and dive shops are nearby. Easy access to the rest of the island.
 
Ferry Terminal pick up and drop off
We can arrange for a pick up from Siquijor Town ferry terminal, 15 minutes from the resort, for a fee. Please call us a day or two in advance on our mobile numbers (0908 1656 277; 0953 3017 464) to arrange pick up time and call again before boarding the ferry to Siquijor to reconfirm the time. It is also easy and often cheaper to catch a taxi or tricycle at the ferry terminal and the local drivers need the business to recover after the pandemic. Drop offs after check-out can be arranged at the resort.
 
Ferries and tickets
There are several ferries throughout the day between Dumaguete and Siquijor and ferries between Bohol/Tagbilaran and Siquijor. Ferry tickets are typically sold at the port on the day of travel. Oceanjet sells tickets online, via third party agents. 
 
Airport transfer
We offer transfer from/to Siquijor Airport, 10 minutes from the resort, for a fee. We can not do pick-ups from Dumaguete/Sibulan Airport on Negros Island. However, from Dumaguete Airport it is easy to get a taxi/tricycle to Dumaguete ferry terminal and from there take one of the many daily ferries to Siquijor.
 
Check-in and check-out times
Check-in from 3pm. Check-out before 11am. You can stay in the resort and leave luggage safely if you arrive earlier. Our Reception is open 7am-10pm. Outside these hours we have staff on duty to assist late check-ins and early check-outs.
 
Direct booking
Direct booking means booking rooms directly with us on our website or by contacting us, instead of booking via the online travel agencies (Agoda, Booking.com, etc.). See our Promotions page. 
 
Payment options 
You can pay with PayPal, debit or credit card when booking on our website (safe, with standard SSL encryption protocols).
We also accept bank transfers for bookings directly with us. Please contact us for bank transfer details.
When you book via online travel agencies like Agoda and Booking.com they instruct you how to pay by credit/debit card and they keep the payment until your stay with us has been completed. We only receive the payment from them afterwards, typically the following month.

We accept cash (PHP, USD, EURO, AUS$) at the resort for walk-in guests or staying guests who wish to extend.
Restaurant bills are settled by cash.

We only waive cancellation fees in exceptional cases, properly documented.
When booking via online travel agencies (Agoda, Booking.com, etc.) you will need to cancel with them and get your refund from them. We, the hotel, cannot cancel guest bookings made via online travel agencies and we do not hold the money, the online travel agencies do.

Dive & snorkel
Siquijor diving and snorkeling is not yet well known but it is very, very good. Turtles are common and divers regularly see sharks, rays, and larger pelagics. Many corals are still in good condition and the area is great for macro-photography. There are dive shops nearby and we help book dive and snorkel tours.
 
The beach
Our beach is part of the longest white sand beach on Siquijor Island. It is not crowded and feels more like a private beach. The sunset is often spectacular. The July-November winds carry harmless seagrass on to the beach. We do our best to keep it clean. The beach is not great for swimming, but there are good swimming beaches nearby and around the island. At high tide you can take our free kayaks to the edge of the reef to swim and snorkel in clear water with some corals.
