De locatie is fijn. Ietsje vanaf de doorgaande weg en daardoor rustig. De kamers zijn netjes en in een knus hofje. Goede airco en wifi. Een scooter is zo geregeld en de massage 'aan huis' was top! 's Avonds eten in de Chekesh bar is een aanrader. Heerlijke curry.

Tout, le jardin est magnifique. Le propriétaire loue un scooter Honda qui fonctionne très bien.

Thank you chekesh casa for making our stay smooth and comfy. The room is clean always and smells good also the staffs are kind and accommodating. You also offer a motorcycle for rent for a very affordable price and generously letting us borrow the motorcycle without payment in our last day of checking in. And also the accommodation are very much accessible in all the tourist spots and sea
The room was big enough for our group, clean and comfortable beds.
I like everything except the door is not easy to open.
We absolutely loved our stay at Chekesh Casa! The staff were incredibly welcoming and friendly, the property is nestled in lush palm trees and greenery, and the location couldn’t be better - just a few minutes’ walk from Tubod Beach, our favourite beach on Siquijor. The Wi-Fi was reliable, the hot showers had great water pressure, and having the delicious Chekesh Casa restaurant right near by was such a bonus, we literally ate there every night. They also rent scooters, making it easy to explore the island. There are so many things to love about this place, and it truly made our stay special. If we’re ever back on Siquijor, we’ll be booking Chekesh Casa again without a second thought. Highly recommend!
No service in the rooms - Not a complaint, just so people are aware! Do not let that scare you away from booking.
I love the staff and the owner - they were very accommodating.
The internet was not as good as I hoped it would be because although I was traveling for vacation to celebrate my son's graduation, I was also doing work and needed the internet to be smooth. It's not good for calls.
Toller Garten, tolles Zimmer, gute Sauberkeit und Lage
החדר היה גדול ויפה מרווח ונמצא בתוך גן של צמחיה יש גם מרפסת נחמדה היו מקרר וקומקום בחדר והמזגן עבד דברים שאינם מובנים מאליהם סה"כ חדר מצוין יחסית למחיר מאוד נהנתי ממנו
בעל המקום היה בחופשה וכשהגעתי העובדת התקשרה אליו ונאלצתי לחכות כחצי שעה לפני שאישרה לי להכנס לחדר ,מעבר לכך כשהזמנתי בבוקינג יום נוסף טענו שהזמנתי חדר אחר קטן יותר וביקשו שאעבור חדר ( כמובן שלא הסכמתי) ההרגשה היתה שבשל העובדה שבעל הבית לא נמצא העובדות בחחץ וכל הזמן שאלו מתי אני עוזב ...רציתי להשאר אבל הרגשתי לא נעים מהעובדות ולכן עברתי למקום אחר
IT was clean and comfy.
El hotel esta relativamente cerca de la playa, hay que andar como 15 min. Nos atendieron muy bien tendiendo en cuenta que entramos prontito (pudimos dejar las coas y cambiarnos sin problema) La habitación muy correcta, limpia y bonita. Solo estuvimos un día.
Todo estuvo bien.
Location was excellent! The staff are very friendly and accommodating!

הבעלים מאוד נחמד, עוזר בכל מה שצריך, מסביר פנים, כלל הצוות מאוד נחמדים, המקום באמת מדהים, נקי, באמת חוויה כיפית
מקום מעולה נקי! נגיש מכל בחינה שהיא! מארחים נחמדים מאוד! ממליצה בחום
We had such a wonderful stay at Chekesh Casa from April 10 to 13 with my family. From the moment we arrived, we felt very comfortable and well taken care of. The room was spacious—perfect for a family—and everything was clean and well-maintained, which we really appreciated. The staff were all very helpful and welcoming, and Sir Jiovanni, the owner, was especially accommodating and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our stay. One thing we also loved was the convenience of having a carenderia and a bar nearby. It made meals so easy, and the food was genuinely delicious! Overall, it was a very pleasant and relaxing experience. I would definitely recommend Chekesh Casa to anyone looking for a cozy, family-friendly place to stay.
A faster internet connection would make the stay even better. The water pressure can also get a bit low at certain times of the day.
Nothing
You can sleep with ants if you like.
Amazing staff, great value for money & a perfect location to Tubod beach! The location is off the road so quiet at night & although we lost water power temporarily, the staff did everything they could to get it up & running again for our stay… helped us with tours & Apo island trip too!
Nothing
Le logement est très bien et grand ! L’emplacement est super à côté de Tubod Beach, ça permet d’accéder facilement à la plage
Beaucoup de fourmis rouges dans le logement et parfois la communication avec l’hôtel est compliqué par message
Lovely garden location. Spacious room. Staff are friendly and helpful in organising taxis / port transfers. Short 10 minute walk to amazing beach for snorkelling and sunset views.
Room is quite expensive relative to alternatives, but overall worth it.
What we liked most about the place was the beautiful view, the free drinking water, the spacious room, and the quiet veranda where you can relax every morning while sipping your coffee. The room also has a small fridge where you can keep your drinks cold, and they provide a blower you can use. The location is also convenient—it’s only about 6–10 minutes from San Juan, the main tourist area in Siquijor, and just a 2-minute walk to Coco Grove.
Although the staff were accommodating with our requests, you have to go to their cafe/resto across the street if you need anything, which means walking outside the villa. It’s also not ideal for remote work. They have Wifi but it only seems fast around midnight, and the signal is weak for Globe users. The accommodation also doesn’t provide a steam iron. Another thing we noticed is that the walls seem a bit thin. You can hear people chatting from the other room—not clearly enough to understand what they’re saying, but enough to know someone is there iykwim 😌
Jolie guesthouse au calme et proche de tout (une plage splendide à proximité, avec le sanctuaire marin de Tubod riche en poissons et coraux), on traverse un beau jardin pour accéder à notre logement. Jovan et Maï-Maï sont des hôtes charmants et très arrangeants. Il est venu nous chercher à l embarcadère. Les repas pris dans leur restaurant tout proche sont excellents. Personnel très serviable.
Dejlig centralt og tæt på lækker strand og snorkling. Fint med alle planter omkring lejlighederne, så man kunne være i sin egen “oase” Super venligt og imødekommende personale, altid klar til at hjælpe.
Hvis vi skal komme med et forbedrings forslag, så kunne myggenet være en ting man kunne investere i.
Super endroit, bon emplacement dans la ville proche de la mer et en même temps un peu éloigné de la route passante. Très calme, chambre confortable (juste attention à ne rien laisser traîner il y a très vite des fourmies par centaines, même en hauteur mais ça ne dépend pas des hôtes ça juste de notre négligence). Personnel le plus accueillant que j'ai croisé aux Philippines, aux petits soins. Mon amie était malade en arrivant et ils ont tous fait pour nous trouver un tuk tuk pour nous emmener voir un médecin puis on prie régulièrement de ses nouvelles ensuite. Restaurant proche et repas très bons. Location de scooter facile directement sur place pour aller se balader. Merci pour tout !

L'emplacement est très bien, le petit jardin est très mignon. Le personnel est vraiment gentil et arrangeant. Nous avons pu leur louer un scooter directement. Le restaurant de l’hôtel situé un peu plus bas dans la rue est vraiment bon. Il y avait bien de l’eau chaude et une bonne pression dans la salle de bain.
La chambre où nous étions était un peu sombre du fait des gros rideaux. Elle n’était pas du tout isolé de l'extérieur donc on entendait pas mal. Mais c’est courant aux Philippines
The place felt like a warm and cozy home. Everything was very clean and well maintained, and the room had a comfortable, relaxing atmosphere. It was quiet, welcoming, and perfect for a restful stay.
Nothing in particular. Everything was pleasant and met our expectations.
Beautiful, large, comfortable room. Big shower area. Nice balcony to enjoy the outside. AMAZING hospitality by Jovani and Mai mai the owners. They were so nice and helpful. Location is 1 minute walk from the main road next to the most beautiful beach we snorkeled. Restaurants and small markets all on a walk distance or 5 minutes by tuktuk We loved it here!
Personnel très gentil, aux petits soins. Bien situé pour visiter l'île. On a loué un scooter directement avec eux. Ils organisent aussi vos transferts aéroport/port - hôtel sur demande avec supplément. Très bon resto, ça a été notre cantine pour tout le séjour. Séjour parfait!
Отзывчивый хозяин отеля. За доп плату организовал трансфер. При заселении обнаружили, что водонагреватель сломан, нам его заменили на следующий же день. Питьевая вода в свободном и неограниченном доступе. Есть чайник , кружки. По запросу нам принесли нож для фруктов и тарелки. В номере чисто, приятно пахнет.
В номере есть насекомые. Мы брали шоколад для презентов, оставили в чемодане, при выезде обнаружили, что шоколад съеден муравьями, и наши вещи кишат ими . В номерах старые кондиционеры, которые очень шумят. В остальном было все хорошо
Det var meget ordentligt og velholdt udenfor og indenfor. Ejerne behandlede os ekslusivt, de var meget hjælpsomme. Dejligt med deres egen resturent tæt på, hvor man kan spise både morgenmad, middagsmad og aftensmad.
Der var ikke et område med aktiviteter som poolbord eller swimmingpool, men det var der jo heller ikke lovet. Det ligger ikke ved vandet, men det var nemt at komme til stranden derfra.
Very chill place. Good place to have a moment for yourself
Place is further up the hill then it seems if you look at the location. Its on the other side of the street. Not on the beach side. I would still have went for the place, but being a bit more clear about it would be great. I thought I could walk from the place straight to the beach.
L’établissement était bien situé. Location de scooter sur place possible. Le personnel est au top ! Souriant, à l’écoute, disponible. Le patron est venu nous chercher au port, ce qui est très agréable. En bas du logement se trouve le restaurant qui appartient à la même famille : repas copieux et typique, petit déjeuner diversifié, pour des tarifs abordables. Des équipes toujours avec le sourire.
Big room
No water some time
Chambre confortable et propre avec petite terrasse privative. Bonbonne eau froide ou chaude à disposition. Personnel très très gentil s
Manque de pression dans la douche On entend les motos passer sur la route. Prix un peu élevé
Comfortable, clean , great staff - very sweet people !
Some noise from neighbouring room , but only once .
Chambre sans bruit extérieur ce qui est assez rare ici. Proche des plages et des falls en scooter
Belle chambre, avec un lit très confortable , petite terrasse dans un jardin très agréable et reposant. Une Clim fonctionnelle et surtout de l’eau chaude dans la douche ! Personnel très agréable , bien situé sur l’île , proche de San Juan et des plages.
Le robinet de notre chambre ne marchait pas … et il n’y avait que des prises de type A et B contrairement aux autres chambres équipées de prises de type C , dommage.
Very good location, just across Coco beach resort and as such a 5min walk to the beach. Spacious rooms and a shower curtain. Very nice owners. The restaurant is also very good and you can have breakfast for about 200 pesos. We also rented a scooter for 3 days without any problems for 350 a day.
There was little pressure in the shower, but we heard (at the dive shop) that this was an island wide problem. There are quite some spiders in the room and the last night we had a mouse/rat in the room. As we were leaving at 6am we were unable to let them know. (So partly our fault) Aircon is a bit tricky as even on 26 degrees it blows quite cold.
Chambre spacieuse et propre. Possibilité de louer des scooters sur place, très pratique.
Pas de petit déjeuner, dommage.
El apartamento es cómodo, agradable y espacioso. Cuenta con aire acondicionado y ventilador, lo cual es genial para gestionar la humedad exterior. Tranquilo, está algo apartado de la carretera principal. Tuvimos un tifón cuando estuvimos y nos dejaron alargar la estancia. La casa sólida, se agradeció para pasar la lluvia torrencial. Tenían disponible a Richard y su trycicle, con él hicimos rutas un par de días por la isla y todo genial, le recomendamos también.
Personnel adorable et aux petits soins. Possibilité de louer des scooters directement au logement pour seulement 350php par jour! Plusieurs très bons restaurants a proximité et facile de se déplacer pour découvrir l'île! 5 minutes a pied du sanctuaire de Tubod
Location, flexibility and kindness of the owner and staff.
Magnifique jardin entretenu en plein coeur de la nature, juste à côté des commodités et pas très loin de Tubod beach et ses magnifiques coraux. Nous sommes venus pendant le festival Goswan, très belle fête avec les locaux, qui sont toujours joyeux 🥰, ça fait du bien
Nevera en la habitación Buena limpeza No esta en la carretera, con lo cual es bastante tranquilo
Cada noche se iba la luz! Obras en el jardin Podrian incluir el desayuno al tener tb restaurante
Solo la ubicación
Habitación sucia, llena de hormigas por todas partes (cama incluida), telas de araña. El lavabo minúsculo y viejo.
All was perfect and the owners are so kind ✨️ 😊
Great value for money, room was spacious, bathroom was huge with great shower. Loved that our room had a fridge and a safe which is rare to have both in the Phillipines. Rented a scooter from the accommodation too which is a must for Siquijor. Good location near lots of restaurants and beaches.
Beautiful and large studio with comfortable beds.Gorgeous garden and very nice owner.It’s a perfect place to stay in Siquijor when it has an electricity power. But there is a huge problem in the area with an electricity cuts off every few hours (average every 3 hours). And it becomes very hard to stay at the room because no airflow inside. Get ready to stay hours in dark without internet,phone or air conditioning.
Spacious peaceful rooms No hot water & shower head so blocked with limescale it had poor flow & many non working or miss firing water jets.
We loved it & would have liked to stay longer. The photos did not do the accommodation justice. We had a garden room no. 1 with a private terrace. The fridge had water & beers to purchase at a reasonable price. There was a water station in our porch also, together with a kettle & somewhere to hang wet clothes
Nothing
Nice place close to the beach Very nice people Family room just perfect in a small paradise garden
Access to the beach is paying 100 php by person
Quiet rooms, nice restaurant away from rooms
Accommodations up a small hill, 10/15 walk to beach. This is the only property in all my travels where you have to pay for water and I’ve been traveling in Philippines for 3 weeks ( not even one upon arrival) not conveniently located
Very good location, close to everything. Good value for money!
There is no TV, and I didn’t appreciate the lack of service water, which is usually provided in most accommodations in the Philippines. Instead, we had to take bottled water from the fridge and pay extra at checkout.
Everything it was perfect
Mai Mai and her staff were very friendly and accommodating. She helped arranged our pick up and drop-off at the port and made it very easy to get to their place. She also helped us with the tour on our first day. I will definitely recommend Checkesh Casa to my families and friends.
Great little spot, would definitely stay here again.
Everything! Big spacious rooms, sweetest and helpful owners and great location. We are returning guest and this is a place where we fell welcome and home.
Stayed in two different rooms due to availability. Loved both
- Very friendly and helpful staff who helped arrange transfers and excursions - Well priced motorbikes, the cheapest we have found in the Philippines - Efficient and silent air conditioning - Very spacious (we were 2 people in the 5 bed family room) - Great location
- There were LOTS of ants. It would have been good to have a pre warning to not take food into the room. It also meant we couldn’t keep snacks in there. - No free drinking water as the water filter had broken a few days earlier and hadn’t been replaced. They offered for us to fill our bottles at the restaurant but it’s a walk away down a hill from the villas. - Frequent power cuts - we appreciate this isn’t their fault but it would have been helpful to have been made aware that this is a possibility and for there to be a generator - No hand towels, just a body towel - No kettle for teas / coffees - Staff are very friendly and helpful in person but poor communication over WhatsApp and booking.com
Nice, clean, and good value for money
The bathroom mirror is not designed for tall people.
It was a very private spot and an extremely comfortable room, excellent value for the money.
a small tv with a movie channel would be a nice touch
Staff were really welcoming & helpful. Perfect place to stay which is cost friendly. Air Con works well. Bed is really comfortable & the room location is perfect.
Room doesn’t have all amenities which you might need - hairdryer etc, but that’s all.
Great stay and lovely room. Quiet location and the owners are attentive and friendly
Quite a lot of ants that get into the room
Only liked the green bush outside.
I messaged about aircon being warm and I got no reply. The room was super small with no TV. There was no face towels or Tissues. Went to the bar 3 times and everytime they didn't have the correct change. I also asked for a cocktail at 8pm and was told the bartender finished work.
Staff is so accommodating. The room is very clean and spacious for our group.
Cute place and great value for money, close to a couple of restaurants with good priced and tasty food. Scooter was easy to sort out and fairly priced. Very happy and chill vibe. Owners were awesome as well. I rarely give a 10/10 but this place was worth it all things considered.
