Apartments in Oslob

This is a brand new hotel with very clean facilities. However there are some issues. It is relatively far from anything resembling a town (about 40 min walk or 10 min tricycle ride). They had some construction issues with the drainage, and the water from the shower often pooled up in the entire bathroom. There was also a mosquito infestation issue. The tour guide they have on staff is very friendly and the hotel restaurant does some pretty good meals.

Nice, cheap place to stay. Right on the water and has a decent pool with bar and restaurant. About 15 minutes away from whale shark area. Only complaint is that the WiFi isn’t great... went in and out of service entire stay

We headed to Oslob from Cebu City to snorkel with whale sharks. Because it was a weekend, it took 5.5 hours in traffic and we were about 10 minutes late for check-in, but they welcomed us with a smile. There was a toilet, but there was no toilet paper, so I recommend bringing it with you (this is common in the Philippines). The shower was in a different place, but we didn't use it because we took a shower at the dormitory where we were studying abroad. They came to wake us up at 4am the next morning and we walked for about 5-10 minutes to where we could see the whale sharks. We overslept, so we left at 4:30 and reservations started at about 5:30. We were able to line up and swim at this time before 8am. I recommend bringing some snacks with you. After we finished, we ate, went to the nearby Tumalog Falls, and returned to the hotel to check out. They were really helpful in carrying our luggage during the tour! I would definitely use them again if I have the chance! When we went, whale shark snorkeling was 500 pesos and a GoPro was 550 pesos.

We arrived at the hotel directly from the airport. At 7 or 8 o'clock in the morning, we checked in the room early. Four people booked the two upstairs rooms, which is equivalent to the upstairs charter. It is good to dry clothes and dry clothes on the railings and corridors on the second floor. Snorkeling equipment, although there are not many varieties for breakfast, but the amount of tube is enough, the dinner is also set, the price is also quite large, the taste is also good, you can order the whale shark, it is close to about 20-30 minutes, you can catch it Go to the first batch of sea, tutu shuttle back and forth, and help you buy tickets, accompany you throughout the journey, very intimate, there is a yellow bus stop at the door of the hotel, it is very convenient to go back to the city, the overall hotel is very cost-effective, facing the sea, the room is very good Clean, that is, the hot water reserve for the shower is small. Next to the hotel is the beach where you can go to the sea and you can catch crabs at night, but it is a wild beach. Some fishing tools and wooden boats are on the beach. I didn’t eat what other friends said. Free coconut, but my friend experienced a free massage, saying that it’s not very enjoyable because the technique is not too heavy, hahaha~

We paid 20$ per person per night. Understandable for the conditions of the place for the price we paid. But as it was very close to the road, it was so noisy at night as the lorry and buses passing by. Need to have earplugs if you want a good night sleep. For breakfast, either you buy earlier at 7 eleven at other places and not at oslob. Or you can go to whaleshark place to have your breakfast.

Island is beautiful, food is acceptable. But service is very bad. I traveled by air for a few hours followed by another 3 hours on bad road condition then ferry to the hotel, when i was super tiring. I arrived at hotel at 11am and waited until 3pm to have a room. I dont understand why it takes four hours for cleaning when i have told the front desk lady multiple times that i am not feeling well. I d rather clean it myself. On the second day, we went out for diving and came back at 2pm, hotel didnt do room cleaning at all.. I also asked for a spa session. The lady pointed me to a random place with nobody inside. I walked back and forth to ask her again. It happened again when my room is ready. I cant find my room but walking back and forth. Far worse than Thailand, Indonesia in service and price are equally expensive. Suggest to train staff with basic hospitality ethics instead of leaving the guest wandering around for hours and hours. Hotel upgraded our meal with breaky and dinner. But food quality is not hotel level. No other choice on this island. I wont come back to Philippine again.
