Banamboo

Clean cute and close to Kawasan falls

Nothing

The bunk bed room was great

The Aircon was way too noisy. I think the bungalow was pricier than i would pay based on its building material ( Prefabricated) and size. Shower wasn’t having enough water pressure or getting hot.

Все было отлично.

Very nice staff and facilities

Le calme et le personnel

Very nice beds Small terras Food was good Arranged Canyoneering Middle of nature

It's a bit far from the main road. We liked it but others might not. You need some form of transport

Prachtige tuin, ruime bungalow, vriendelijk personeel, leuk zitje voor ontbijt e.d. schoon bij aankomst. Behulpzame medewerkers. Stonden altijd voor je klaar om tricycle te regelen. Of water of thee/koffie te brengen.

We waren er 4 dagen en hadden het fijn gevonden als het gebruikte toiletpapier tussendoor opgeruimd zou worden. Was vast gebeurd als we het hadden gevraagd, maar zelf maar even gedaan. Meer een tip voor de toekomst. En niet iedereen sprak goed Engels. Wel was iedereen aardig!

Nice peaceful place in nature, friendly people, breakfast included, nice room and bathroom... i stayed here because in Moalboal everything was full, it's not to far with a scooter

Good clean. Place for solo travelers

For this money is perfect

Le jardin trés soigné

Un peu trop de moustiques mais ils font quand même attention à nous fournir tout ce qu’il faut pour nous protéger Les petits gorets du voisin affamés mais ca n’a pas duré et c’était plutôt amusant

L’équipe est vraiment super gentille, au petits soins et toujours avec le sourire ça fait plaisir L’établissement est super mignon, il y a beaucoup de plantes, nos enfants on joue dans le jardin, on a vraiment aimé notre séjour

Alors ça n’est pas à cause de l’établissement mais il faut savoir que le voisin met la musique à fond parfois à 6h du matin .. donc impossible de dormir De plus les rideaux blanc font qu’à 6h/6h30 il fait jour dans la chambre, si vous aimez le noir prévoyez vos masque de nuits 😉

Die ruhige Lage und die gemütliche Sitzbereich draußen hat uns sehr gefallen. Schönes großes Zimmer, mit ein paar Verbesserungsvorschlägen..

Was wirklich ein bisschen schade ist, dass Zimmer ist groß, aber es gibt keinen einen Spiegel, Haken um Kleidung oder nasse Handtücher aufhängen zu können oder ein kleiner Schrank um Sachen abzulegen. So liegt halt alles am Boden herum. Auch im Badezimmer gibt es keinen Spiegel. Ich habe selbst keinen Spiegel dabei, deshalb hab ich mich halt mal 3 Tage nicht im Spiegel gesehen :D Und eine größere Bettdecke wäre gut.

Staff were extremely positive and helpful. To the point that they made us the complimentary breakfast at 5AM so we could make it to Canyoneering.

It's pretty far away from anything except Canyoneering. Wouldn't recommend if you want to do other activities in Moalbal.

The owner didn't communicate with us properly and we didn't get breakfast and the morning we didn't want breakfast they cooked us breaky. The beds were comfortable however this is more a backpackers stay. No fridges and its a shared toilet.

The owner made us feel a little uncomfortable with pushing us to arrange our holiday activities through her with an extra cost. Location is no where near town and tuk tuk drivers will charge 600 pesos to get to moalboal each way. It felt like the owner may have listened to our conversations as the house was so close and the owner kept coming over and commenting on things we said.

It was a little oasis. Our host was amazing and made the most delicious food. Breakfast came with our stay and she provided dinner for a fee. The bungalow we stayed in only had AC in the one bedroom so if you are needing to use the other bedroom, it will be toasty. With that said, they provide fans to keep the room cooler and brought out fans to the patio during evening meals to keep us cool. This property was close to the canyoneering activity at the Kawasan falls. The canyoneering team came to our place to pick up with equipment in hand. This property is located by Kangsanto natural spring..

You needed to arrange for transportation to go anywhere.

The property was cozy and clean, the garden around it is full with unique nature

-

Bananboo is a family run business. One of the sister is an amazing cook. The other sister is a nice entrepreuner willing to help guests. The location is good to visit both a "not-so-special beach" and the amazing Kasawan Falls.

Room could be more confortable as well as the bathroom. Wifi was bad and irregular.

Friendly, helpful and welcoming, good local walks

Staff is very friendly, place is tucked away in the jungle and is full of locely plants. Guides doing the canyoneering trips were great.

Yard work early in the morning was a bit noisy

Very nice and helpful hosts, good breakfast, beautiful garden, nice bungalows

Nice bungalow, very nice and helpful hosts, good breakfast, beautiful garden

Beautiful, off the road surrounded by big bamboo trees. Beautiful garden and amazing staff and food

N/a

Amazing staff! Very accommodating and it’s located so close to Kawasan Falls

We love the ambiance and the surroundings

For a night of stay we didn't really need a lot of things

Our host Josephine was very nice and helpfull with booking when we needed it. The House is located in a charming garden far from the noice of the city. Great value for the money.

Very friendly staff. Great food. Very peaceful location

Absolutely loved this place, perfect location to do the canyoneering and hiking the peaks. The town just down the road has some amazing food. Everyone was lovely, it was like being at home.

Loved the hospitality. The owners made sure I got a the best transportation as I was headed for a night out alone. I had expected a tuktuk and got a whole fancy jeep instead. The driver was also so sweet making sure I was OK the whole night and made sure I got back safe.

There were a couple of insects in the room. The location is not the most convenient and for that reason, some commercial tuktuks might not know where it is. Hence the owners arranged transport for me, and for a very good price!

Personnel very attentive and respecfull. Good situation and food very good.

Mattress in parental room need to be change .all the reste was ok .

The owners👍🏻,the staff👍🏻,the room,👍🏻the location👍🏻,the price for rent a room👍🏻👍🏻💵💵,the trees and plants there at banamboo resort👍🏻.

Its f..k..g hot on april,may there but its normal for the philippines. 😁😁😁

Outside grounds were very well laid out, lending a feeling of peace. Quiet at night. Food selection was limited but tasty. Check in was easy.

Rooms ttto small. no where to hang or store clothes, and not room enough to unfold a suitcase.

Josephine and Marc were incredible nice and comforting. They Help however they can. All the stuff is very nice and Kind. Delicious food and a very private and excellent canoneering experience Off the big groups. My daughter and me were absolutly Happy to stay at this place

Nothing

Here you can find a silent place, out of hussle and stress… it was such a down to earth/homie accommodation. Although the place is near to all activities. Mam Josephine organized all our trips, you just have to tell her what you want to do and she will handle the rest. They also have delicious food. And even if it is not on their menu, they will find a way so you can eat what you are craving for. They also give you tips for some secret spots. All in all, we will come back

the property was situated in a peaceful part of the town badian so we had alot of peac

We liked the location; it was not too far off the main road, secluded, and quiet.

The airconditioning unit wasn't working well, I guess. We set it to the lowest temperature and it was still too warm for me, as compared to the other accommodations we've stayed at.

Everything was great! Very nice place and kind Owners :)

i love everything about this accommodation, they cooked us delicious breakfast, even dinner because we were lazy to go out for dinner so we asked them and they did not disappoint us.

Nothing. i felt happy when i was there so, for me everything was perfect! Host was amazing, i love Mme Josephine, she's amazing host and oh, the guides are perfect! we love Jerry, he's so nice and and also Kevin, they took good care us us like fragile stuff, i mean literally! these boys are amazing, very well trained and very professional. Excellent, host, excellent staff! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!

Staff and everything was spotless clean

All perfect

It’s very green, cozy place with beautiful landscape. The owners are very friendly and welcoming. If you wish to have time off from city life style, I recommend this place. Our room was a hostel type option, and It’s nice to have a shower door outside in such landscape, not disturbing people in room. I saw some guest are coming back yearly to this place.

None

The service was top-notch. We reached when it was dark and raining. The staff quickly got us umbrella and lead us to the room and got our luggage for us. They also set up table and chairs at the veranda for us to have our dinner so that we didn't have to go to the dining space during the rain. The cook was walking by and asked us what we wanted for breakfast, she was nice enough to cook for us using the ingredients we bought. The room was spacious for the four of us. Everyone got their comfortable space to sleep in. Just wished the blankets were a little thicker :) We were surrounded by nature through and through, woke up to the dogs and the chickens.

Not sure if there was a party going on but the loud music went on till quite late at night, had some trouble falling asleep because of that.

The best stay during our 2 weeks trip in Philipinnes. Located in a peaceful area just few hundred meters from the main street. Small houses surrounded by the beautifull garden. And the best part is the amazing host Josephine. She takes care about all her guests. They organise diferent tours (canyoneering, snorkeling, trek to Osmana peak). The breakfasts and diners prepared by her sister are delicious. We love this place and we highly recomend to other tourists visiting Cebu.

Wonderful hosts and nice peaceful location. Everything is just beautiful there. Josephine and her family are sweethearts. Banamboo organized activities (canyoning and diving) for us and we had the best guides and had them all to ourselves. It was fantastic. The food was good as well. We highly recommend this place. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Staff were really nice and kind. Quite place in the jungle

Bathroom was outside of apartment (you need to go outside when going into bathroom)

Good Price Strong Wifi, AirCon, and Electricity even during thunderstorm Good Water Pressure

Location is farther from the main road than we thought and hard to catch bus / tricycle on our own, had to rely on hotel staff Food onsite is pricey for the area Bring more cash than you think ATMs not super close

The host was very helpful. She facilitated the bike and Canyoneering.

Room air-conditioning was not okay. I hope they can replace them to accommodate hot weather

Very quite, beautiful gardens

Nice place in the middle of nature. We even extended our stay.. The mattress on the single bed is firm and good. The accommodation is simple but complete. Warm shower 🥰 The outer terrace is a nice feature where you can sit and enjoy morning coffee with some privacy.

The mattress in the master bedroom is a bit thin - I'm 178cm/85kg and feeling the frame. We've got a bit a problem with mosquito bites - the windows don't have nets (lid windows, quite impossible to apply them). We managed to get a mosquito net over the bed installed as provisory. Maybe this can be installed by default. Due to it's in the province expect some animal noise. Especially the chickens are sometimes shouting all night long.

Comfy bed, good air conditioning. Nice food. Staff very friendly and helpful. Good location, no road noise. Very good canyoneering tour with Jerry. Nice gardens.

We felt our host tried to take advantage of us in regards to money. For example; advertising airport drop off for 4.5k and then offering for 3k once we booked with somebody else. Asking for cash the morning of a tour when we had already agreed we would pay on PayPal. Also asking us to pay their business fee when settling our bill through PayPal which was never discussed. Not sign posted, hard to find. Ants at dinner table, bathroom and bedroom. Wifi doesn’t reach bedroom. Food overpriced. No soap provided for bathroom. Chickens noisy very early morning.

Very nice location, and friendly owners. When you arrive at the gate, make yourself visible and hearable because the house is a little bit far from the gate.

Wonderful place to stay in. Stuff was amazing, helping in everything, we felt like home

The property was taken care of well! While the location could’ve been better, the fact that the property is quite far from main roads helps ensure the quietness and full relaxation of the guests.

The host is very friendly.

There are quite a lot of ants 🐜 in the bathroom.

Breakfast was good, location a bit out of town but on arrival rented a bike/ scooter and had no issues getting around

nothing it was a lovely stay.

We had an awesome stay there. The host Josephine and her crew were adorable, very friendly and helpful. They made everything easy for us, any activity in the area can be organised from there. We also liked the calmness of the place as we were knackered from 3 days of transit. We highly recommend this place!

How helpful the owners are! Ask about floating cottage! Food was incredible.

Windows didn't lock

Really nice and sweet housekeeper. Its like small villa that every room is separate house. Many trees and plants and animals living here which make place full of vigour. Service is good.

Air conditioner is a little bit loud but can be tolerate as many in Phillipines. Better place a road sign in case drive to nearby's house.

Host was very hospitable and staff was accomodating. Noodles bihon was awesome.

Mattress was just foam could be upgraded to a nicer one :-) AC in the bedroom.was not sufficient enough to cool down at liking Fish on menu would be awesome too

Josephine, Mark and the rest of the family helped us a lot. We felt very welcome from the start and they helped us book things like Canyoneering and Whaleshark Diving. We were kind of panicking when we arrived at the airport because of some issues at immigration, but Josephine knows a lot of people and will do everything she can to help you. She even arranged a taxi at 10 in the evening so we wouldn't feel lost at the airport. In the evening we spent a lot of time talking with them and we had a lot of fun together. Josephine really knows all of the right people and places in (and outside) Cebu. You'll be in good hands with Banamboo!

Josephine and Mark keep this place cosy, clean, and just beautiful 😍 It has a very good vibe and for me it was surprising, how many activities you can do nearby! Kawasan Falls Canyoning was an amazing experience and a great value for money, Jerry is a very good guide! Breakfast was great and complementary hot and cold water was provided!

As Banamboo is located in nature, expect some ants, although inside the bungalow it was very clean and the number of ants was low; a strong spray against insects was also available.

We liked everything about it, but especially the area around the property. In addition, the friendliness and helpfulness of the owners was amazing! Josephina organised all the activities for us on Cebu and Bohol, she was constantly with us and took care of us! It was amazing! She showed us the island from the "local people" side. The food at the property was fresh and delicious. Highly recommended!

the staff are very accommodating, friendly nature, and the food is good 😊

We really enjoyed our (short) stay here! The place is very romantic and beautiful, with a very peaceful atmosphere. Josephine and Mark, who owns the place, are both incredibly helpful and accommodating. The dinner we had when we arrived was great, and the shower in the rooms was really nice also. We would definitely recommend this place!

we like this place a lot! it’s very clean, the room has AC, private bathroom and breakfast was included. the staff was very and very friendly and helpful , they also organized kawasan canyoneering with a very good price !the price is better than in Klook! they also arranged you a transfer! thanks for our staying and Banamboo.

I really like this place it makes you feel welcome and the owner was very friendly

Very nice host, happy to help, guide for the canyoneering is super nice!

I had a four bed dormitory room all for me, so that was great. It had AC and nicely smelling bedding. The crispy chicken for dinner was delicious!

The bathroom was shared and the very first day of my stay it wasn’t clean as the floor was dirty. I stayed there for two nights and none of the days it got cleaned, so it was just getting dirtier as it was used by more guests.

Very clean and the place was very well maintained. It is my first time to see an accommodation investing in an air purifier to keep the room from bad odors and dust. The exhaust in the comfort room was working well, through which we were able to dry our towels and wet clothes from our earlier activity. They offer food that you can order for other meals, which was very delicious by the way (we had grilled chicken and buttered vegetables, with a side of iced tea). The owner was also kind enough to give us breakfast very early in the morning.

I love how sincere and caring the owner to its guest. They did good job on following up and recommending some activities that a guest could had within the area. It just happens that we books ours in advance but given the chance I would recomend the place for friends/family and Barkadas to avail the said activities as they will take care of you. I would like to thank Josephine for being genuinely caring and hands on to us. Great job and definetly recommend 🥳!! Cheers and see you again 😊

Recomend to have more signage on main road and nearby the dead end cemented road 😉

The owner is a very nice and friendly woman; she made a really great lunch for me. The room was simple, 1-2 shelves would be good. The garden is very nice! They also organise canyoning tour. My guide was Jerry, who is handsome young man and he was really-really fantastic guide!!! It was one of my best program in the 3 weeks in Philippens, so I totally recommend. Thanks Jerry! :)

The breakfast and food in general were amazing, one of the best we had in the Philippines. The location was very tranquil and serene, right in the middle of nature. The owners are great and helped arrange absolutely anything you could ask for from scooters, food, itineraries, transport, you name it.

As a result of the location, there were quite a few ants, but nothing to worry about too much.

staff is accomodating and friendly. love the designs of the room and its cleanliness. looks chic

location is hard to find. need a bigger signage on the main road.

The hosts Josephine and Mark were so friendly and helpful and their family too who looked after us. Helped us with tours and out laundry. We felt like family. Highly recommended!

Nothing!

really clean .. friendly not far to Oslob or kawasan falls on a scooter .

It is a quiet and nice place to stay for solo, groups or families. Facilities are clean with aircon and air purifier in each room. The staff are also nice and friendly. Recommended value for money.

I was confused with the location. It seems very remote and the locals seem to not know the place. Good thing habal2 drivers know it.

The owner and the family was very nice and accommodating. Room was clean. Cooked us very nice food as well. Area was quiet.

Drainage wasn’t good but owner helped us fix it right away. Be careful bringing food as I believe it was ant infested (although this is kinda expected in a lot of places in a tropical country). There was no proper road on the way to the property. It was very remote. Was not a fan of the clock behind the bed.
