Location is an easy 5 minute walk to the beach. Plenty of eating establishments near by. The staff can arrange boat tour or even a private boat if desired. Staff willing to make your stay as accommodating and comfortable as possible. Love the room, comfy bed, AC work well. Cute ambiance. Would recommend!
Fab stay, Theresa and the ladies were so lovely and made us feel at home. Great location close to the main beach/ restaurants etc!
Wonderful caring staff
Immaculately clean, incredibly friendly and welcoming staff, perfect location!
The room is very cozy. A very good solution with a balcony. It's nice to have a coffee on the balcony in the morning or just read a book.
Sometimes there was a weak pressure of hot water
The place is very clean and reminds me of a Hakuba-style cabin, we absolutely love it. The owner and staff are very kind and accommodating. This is our second time staying here, and we will definitely be coming back

L'emplacement, le personnel très gentil et aux petits soins, le petit déjeuner sur la terrasse privée, c'est propre et spacieux
Juste un petit reproche pour la douche, soit froide, soit brûlante et le soir parfois pas d'eau du tout
The place is very clean and reminds me of a Hakuba-style cabin, we absolutely love it. The owner and staff are very kind and accommodating. This is our second time staying here, and we will definitely be coming back.

We had a wonderful time with our kids aged 5 and 7 in Port Barton, and enjoyed our stay at Theresa's pension. The team is great, the breakfast is really good, and the facilities are very clean.
The room could use a ventilator. It got hot at night. There is an old airco but it makes noise so we switched it off.
Scarsa scelta della colazione
The staff were helpful and friendly. The complementary breakfast on the first morning was delicious! The bed was comfortable. The location is perfect within Port Barton, only a very short walk down to the beach/beachside restaurants and well located within the small town. Wonderful coffee shops just down the road too.
The water pressure and temperature were very hit and miss.
Great location (2 min walk to the beach) and very friendly staff who were helpful and accommodating! The room was spacious and clean.
The staffs are very friendly. They made sure that we are very comfortable
Water pressure
We loved our stay! Comfortable room, great location and lovely people!
Das Personal ist unglaublich nett und hat uns alle Wünsche erfüllt. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Die Lage ist super und die Zimmer sind top, mit kleiner Terrasse.
Es gibt nichts auszusetzen
The location was perfect. The staff was fantastic. The beds were comfortable.
The water pressure in the showers could be better. We knew the WiFi was inconsistent.

Insgesamt schöne Unterkunft
Great location. Staff were extremely helpful.
Air con was very poor so we had sweltering nights!
A home away from home, I really felt like I was staying with family here, the room is the nicest I’ve stayed in anywhere in the Philippines, the staff, food, location and facilities are 10 out of 10, I have zero faults for this place, Theresa even had some Irish tea for us when we arrived, what a lovely touch
I regret not staying longer
Nous avons passé un séjour absolument incroyable dans cette maison d’hôtes. Le service était exceptionnel, le confort divin et surtout l’hospitalité… incroyable. On s’est vraiment sentis comme à la maison. La chambre était nettoyée et rangée tous les jours, avec une attention aux détails rare : il est même arrivé que nos chaussures soient remises en ordre quand elles étaient mal rangées. Le logement est très bien situé, à seulement 5 minutes à pied de la plage, tout en étant extrêmement calme. Le cadre est sublime et permet vraiment de se reposer. La gérante et toute son équipe sont tout simplement les personnes les plus adorables que nous ayons rencontrées pendant notre voyage aux Philippines. Si j’ai l’occasion de revenir dans la région, j’y retournerai sans hésiter. Un immense merci pour cet accueil inoubliable
Loved the home-like atmosphere, incredibly friendly stuff, always there to help and making everything to give us the best experience. Nice clean rooms, responsive host, nothing really to complain about.
Frankly, given the circumstances (we arrived shortly after the taifun destroyed town's water supply system and Internet modem), I think the stuff did everything at their power to make our stay comfortable
Jätte bra personligt service.Personalen och ägare var super trevliga.Rekommenderar varmt att bo på detta mysiga ställe.
Wonderful apartment in the center of Port Barton, equipped with all comforts. The room was nice, clean and big. The host was extremely helpful and kind, we felt like we were at home!
Nothing
The large room we had has its private balcony with hot/cold water tea/coffee and is quiet. Theresa was most attentive and friendly, responding to all our needs and questions and organising onwards transfers as well as a boat trip with a wonderful captain. We felt at home. The guesthouse is away from the main strip of shops and restaurants but a few minutes from them.
Temporary broken pipes in the nearby locality resulted in a couple of days with intermittent water, but Theresa did her best to provide stored water for showers. On one night of four there was music from some bar until the early hours.
We had an amazing stay at Theresa's place. The room was spacious and clean and it was perfect to have a place to sit outside. Theresa and her staff went above and beyond to give us a place that felt like home. We look back with very fond memories and a craving to the merienda snacks.
Tout était parfait l’emplacement les chambres mais surtout l’hospitalité et l’extrême gentillesse des hôtes

Best host ever! If you’re visiting Port Barton, do yourself a favor and stay with Tita Theresa. The place is immaculately clean, the location is right in the center and just a 2-minute walk from the beach, and the staff and service are 10/10 — very helpful and proactive. We were lucky to meet the owner, Tita Theresa. She’s incredibly thoughtful and even shared her home-cooked meals with us, which were absolutely delicious. We’ll definitely be back!
Nothing!
Fantastisk personale og fantastisk valuta for pengene i Port Barton. Værten Theresa og hendes kollegaer gør det her sted til at føles som et hjem. Der bliver kælet om én, og selvom der ikke er morgenmad med i prisen blev vi alligevel vækket med pandekager én af dagene. Bare fordi. Værelserne er store og rummelige med aircondition, og sengen er rigtig fin. Desuden hjælper Theresa og hendes kollegaer dig med alt. Vi havde problemer med en rejse videre - og de var to om at løse det. Og en af værterne tog sågar med os til busterminalen tidligt om morgenen for at sikre, at vi kom med den rigtige bus videre.
Intet.
Sehr tolles und aufmerksames Personal resp. Inhaberin! Ich war krank und sie haben sich so liebevoll um mich gekümmert und Essen gebracht. Das Zimmer war sehr sauber und riech soo gut. Es hatte alles was wir brauchten, Klima und Tee.
Die Dusche funktionierte nur teilweise, sehr wenig Wasser oder es gab auch momente ohne Wasser - hat uns jedoch nicht gestört und wir haben uns angepasst.
The location is amazing, the facilities are great, the owner and the staff are really nice.
Die extreme Freundlichkeit der Gastgeberin und des Personals. Super schön eingerichtete Zimmer und eine sehr einladende Anlage. Sehr leckeres und variirendes Frühstück welches liebevoll auf der Terasse serviert wurde. Am besten hat uns die Herzlichkeit und das Familäre miteinander gefallen.
Liebevoll eingerichtete große Zimmer mit schönem Bad. Theresa hat uns herzlich empfangen und war äußerst hilfsbereit, ebenso ihr Team. Obwohl wir kein Frühstück gebucht hatten, bekamen wir kleine Leckereien. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt.
Wasser kam teilweise nur lauwarm und mit wenig Druck. Leider (noch) kein WLAN.
Theresa was an incredible host, as was every one of her staff. We stayed for Xmas and Theresa invited us to her family celebration. Breakfast was gorgeous, as was the room.
Na
Das Personal rund um Theresa und Berlin. Sehr herzlich und aufmerksam über die gesamte Zeit hinweg!
Die AC konnte man leider nicht steuern. Es war dementsprechend warm im Zimmer. Man konnte dennoch gut schlafen in dem sehr gemütlichen Bett!
La habitación era súper cómoda y la ubicación muy bien. La señora de la recepción muy amable
El wifi no funcionaba y la señal en la habitación era prácticamente nula lo que nos complica mucho la estancia ya que teníamos que trabajar. Además el agua de la ducha salió fría las 2 primeras noches hasta q por fin nos lo arreglaron
Clean
No wifi No breakfast
Sehr freundlich. Leider wurde unser bestelltes Zimmer überflutet und wir haben ein anderes bekommen. aber alles Top
Die Unterkunft war gar nicht so leicht zu finden. Aber auch kein Problem
Fantastic room with large terrace/balcony in an excellent location. Fantastic stay.
Locatie en personeel
Nice and friendly staff.
Die recht kleine Anlage ist unbedingt zu empfehlen. Das Personal ist außerordentlich freundlich und entgegenkommend und vermittelt (hervorragende) Bootstouren. Frühstück wird nicht angeboten, allerdings gibt es zahlreiche Angebote in der unmittelbaren Umgebung. Der Strand ist fußläufig in 5 Minuten zu erreichen.
Der Wasserdruck und die Temperaturen des Wassers in der Anlage. Ursächlich hierfür waren aber aller Wahrscheinlichkeit die Folgen des Taifuns, der kurz zuvor über die Insel gezogen war.
Le personnel est vraiment dévoué, bienveillant et toujours disponible. Leur accueil a rendu le séjour plus agréable malgré les difficultés rencontrées.
Nous avons rencontré plusieurs problèmes durant notre séjour : pas d’accès à Internet pendant les deux nuits, pas d’eau dans la douche le deuxième jour et une pression très faible lorsqu’elle fonctionnait. Nous pensions que ces soucis étaient liés au typhon, mais après avoir lu d’autres commentaires, il semble qu’ils soient fréquents. Pour un tarif de 65 € la nuit, le rapport qualité-prix nous a paru plus que décevant.
La cama era muy cómoda, y estaba limpio. Los días que necesitamos el desayuno para llevar, nos los prepararon sin problema
La ducha si la ponías en agua caliente apenas tenía presión, con fría si tenía buena presión, pero aún así genial el baño para la media que hay en filipinas. Muy limpio y amplio
The staff, wow, they could not have been more kind. Not only did they mend my glasses for me whilst I was out island hopping they took such genuine care of me when on my return from the trip, in the two steps in the sea from the beach, I was stung across both legs by a huge jellyfish. They bathed my legs in vinegar and sea water and went and fetched ice packs to ease the pain. Aside from all that the property was lovely, the beds some of the most comfortable I’ve slept on and the location ideal but the ladies, so so kind and in the background Theresa on WhatsApp, always attentive, always helpful. Don’t hesitate, book Theresa’s Pension House
Really nothing
Good sized room, very close to beach but quite environment. Would definitely recommend!
We had a great stay; the staff couldn’t have been more helpful or friendly. I celebrated my birthday during the stay and they went above and beyond to make it extra special. Thank you!
The room was still a bit warm despite the air conditioning and fan!
The ladies who ran the guesthouse were so sweet & nothing was too much trouble. They had herbal teas on offer too !
Nothing
Fantastic place, for port Barton it’s luxury. Air con, lovely room and fantastic staff that helped us out so much
A fantastic stay in Port Barton. The room was immaculately clean and had everything we needed for our stay. The staff were absolutely amazing, they went above and behond. Nothing ever a problem. Made us feel like we were at home. Thankyou to the staff for making a memorable stay in Port Barton
Two blocks from beach, friendly hosts, good ac and good wifi. Also little things like bringing tea twice a day, new towels, extra pillows and water refilling station
Great hospitality, very very warm welcome, felt like family, great service, 350 m to the beach, nearby busterminal, accommodation up to date
It was close to everything. Cabins were cute. They had hot water and tea and coffee for us each morning. There was a fridge in the room and they gave us bowls and plates to have our own breakfast. Free water anytime. Staff were fantastic.
Didn’t realize they were doing construction right next door so noisy in daytime.
We loved it here! The room was very cosy and clean and had all the small touches that made it a perfect place to spend a few nights. The staff are wonderful, especially the housekeeper. This was one of the nicest places we stayed in all of the Philippines.
Great place to bee. Staff is very kind and helps with every request without any complications. Rooms are clean and comfortable. Location is less than 5 minutes to the beach.
AC is loud and the room is very noisy, especially if you are on the groundfloor you hear every step of your neighbors from the 1st floor.
Everything was amazing: cozy room, comfortable bed, complimentary coffee/tea all day

Room was comfortable and clean and the location was brilliant, right in the centre of Port Barton. The staff were so lovely and friendly and the host was very responsive and helpful on booking.com. The bedsheets smelt lovely so we had our laundry done there which they did perfectly and also smelt lovely :)
Everything! Great location, comfy room, a/c worked well if a little noisy.
Lovely stay here, very clean and comfortable. Nice little touch have boiling water brought onto the balcony in the mornings and evenings to make a coffee.
Nothing not to like.
Great location, lovely staff and nice balcony area
Cold showers and could be a little cleaner
Friendly staff
No tv, toilet needed bucket of water to flush sometimes, only one tea cup for the whole place, staff forgot making up the room sometimes, noise from kids, puddles of water on road outsidduring rain …
The welcome
room was nice, bed was comfy. location was good and central
noisy old type AC, Leaky fitting on back of toilet. comparing with similar accomodation we thought it was overpriced and would not stay again unless the pricing was revised
The property is very close to the beach with lovely little balconies to sit on. The staff are so lovely and attentive.
The property was very clean and the staff very welcoming. The ensuite is of a good size, well finished and with a hot shower. They just need to add another mirror in the ensuite
A very nice cleaning lady - every morning she sweeps the terrace and brings hot water for coffee or tea. Very good location of the hotel - 5 minutes to the beach and bus stop. Spacious room.
Well, for the first time in over a dozen years, I disagree so much with the opinions of my predecessors. We spent 4 days at the facility and we are not satisfied with our stay. First of all, the room was very dark, so you had to turn on the light even during the day. The door was stuck and had to be pulled hard to open. The air conditioning is noisy and is 40 years old (but it works). Many people emphasized the family atmosphere. Mmmm, that's true, but I think it's about a multi-generational family. We lived opposite the "reception desk" which was the meeting point for all local residents - families, neighbors, workers, children. Loud conversations, laughter... Another bungalow is being built in the middle of the property (congratulations!), so you can hear construction sounds all day long. If you add dogs and cats that have to be pushed off chairs to eat breakfast on the terrace, and roosters, this is not a place you want to come back to after a trip or the beach. It's also not a place where you feel comfortable, because there are a lot of strangers hanging out here and it's definitely not a place where you can relax. You can only stay overnight here, but the price per night is excessive. Everyone admires the hosts. We were given a key, but no one familiarized us with the facility and its rules. You write something about breakfast, the possibility of purchasing a trip or organizing a transfer. Nobody offered us anything. Sometimes I think that we stayed in a different facility because we have completely different feelings
The room and bathroom was clean. It is well decorated. Mattress and pillows are in good condition. There is hot water and the room is equiped refridgerator. Wifi and aircon is good. Beautiful garden, just take lots of mosquitoe repellent. The staff is amazing!
Really nice beds, ac in the rooms as well as a fridge. Coffee/tea each morning and afternoon on the patio. Laundry service excellent. Really nice and helpful staff. Close to the beach and everything else in the little village.
Only cold water in the shower
Good location, air conditioning & staff were great

Updated bathroom with hot water. Free water refills Air con was working and very much needed as it was hot Safe and quiet
Very bright and white sterile lighting in the bedroom.
What a fabulous place to stay right in the heart of Port Barton. Five minutes walk from lots of great restaurants and the beach yet set in a lovely quiet garden away from the hustle and bustle of the town. What makes Theresa's place so special is the wonderful staff. Annie, Lori and Melba are some of the kindest, caring and most friendly hosts we have ever met. Everyday they will make sure your room is spotless. Make you breakfast. Bring hot water for coffee and refreshments. They can rent you a scooter. Book taxis, boat trips and help with your onward journey. Nothing is too much trouble. We had a really nice stay and after travelling around Palawan for two weeks we revisited and stayed a further three nights. Fabulous xx
Wished we had stayed much longer
Extremely clean and quiet. This place was so lovely- I would return any time. Coffee/hot water waiting whenever I got back and Theresa and her sister are by far the best hosts I ever encountered traveling the world. They arrange whatever you need and make you feel home after you enter the place. 3min to walk to the beach. Would def. Recommend to stay there
Nothing
Everything was great. The staff was the nicest and super helpful, they answered every question and were booking stuff for us(Anni was especially lovely). The place was very clean, very cute and comfortable. We recommend and would book again if we were to come back.

Personalet og beliggenheden
Theresa’s Pension House is a small clean guest house that is family operated. Annie and her team bend over backwards to help you out with questions or requests. They treat my wife and I like family. The bed was very comfortable, the AC worked well, and the wifi signal was strong as it was supported through Starlink. If you wish you can have a simple breakfast on your patio deck or head down to the beach front (5 min walk) to dine at one of the many restaurants. We would definitely stay at Theresa’s Pension House if we ever returned to Port Barton.
Not much to dislike.
