Ziah's Guest House

Nous avons passé un très bon séjour. Le personnel est vraiment sympathique et accueillant. L’établissement propose également la location de scooters à un tarif intéressant, ce qui est très pratique. Le logement est bien situé : il est tout à fait possible de visiter la ville à pied si l’on n’a pas envie de louer un scooter, car les principaux sites et restaurants restent accessibles en marchant un peu. Nous avons aussi apprécié les petites attentions, comme l’eau gratuite à disposition ainsi que le thé et le café. La terrasse privative est un vrai plus pour profiter de l’extérieur sans quitter le logement.

Quelques points peuvent toutefois être améliorés. Le ménage pourrait être un peu plus approfondi, même si la chambre était globalement propre. Elle est également assez sombre, ce qui est un peu dommage. Enfin, il faut savoir qu’il y a des coupures d’électricité de 5 h à 12 h. La climatisation s’arrête donc pendant cette période. En revanche, grâce aux panneaux solaires et aux batteries, l’établissement continue à fournir de l’électricité pour le reste des équipements, ce qui limite les désagréments.

Les hôtes sont très sympathique et l’endroit était vraiment très propre!! Mêmes les sanitaires communs, une chose rare

We had such a positive stay at Ziah’s! The people who run it are genuinely lovely and went out of their way to be helpful. They washed and dried our clothes so quickly, and when I ran out of conditioner, she even gave me her own — such a kind gesture. The location is brilliant, and they really went the extra mile with the setup. Thanks to their solar panels, even during Port Barton’s daily power cut (12am–12pm), we still had lights, WiFi, and a working socket. They also provided fans, so it never felt too uncomfortable without AC. Would definitely recommend staying here!

La gentillesse des patrons.

Pas possible de déjeuner sur place. Acces tres sombre la nuit pour rentrer du centre ville. Pas mal de bruit jusque tard le soir alors qu’on se trouve éloigné du centre!

De badkamer, het personeel, hygiëne, bedden, locatie.

De kamer was een beetje aan de kleine kant, ik denk dat dit voor een kort verblijf niet zou storen.

Wanderful and highly affodable. I will stay there again if I'm going back to Port Barton

Nice and clean. The hosts were exceptionally nice to us, taking care of our needs at all times. Value for money is really good as well.

Very friendly and helpful owners. Simple accommodation but very very clean. Comfy beds, good aircon and wifi, lots of room to put your things in the room. Quiet. Free coffee and drinking water. Spacious bathroom with hot or cold shower. Felt safe and secure.

This guest house has a very local feel, tucked away down a small lane where you really feel part of the neighbourhood rather than in a tourist area. The manager is a genuinely kind and welcoming person, which we appreciated. However, there were several comfort issues during our stay. The air conditioning was an older style unit and too noisy to use while sleeping. The mattress was uncomfortable, and the shower room was quite small, with hot water that was inconsistent. The WiFi connection was also poor.

We liked the overall cleanliness of the accommodation especially the bathroom even it is a shared bathroom, they kept it clean at all times

La gentillesse des hôtes, l’accueil, leurs conseils, ils s’occupent de tout (excursions, location scooter…)

Ziah is very nice and helps with booking of tours and organizing transportation!

Loved the location since it was close to our fave restaurant -- FatCat and the room in general was clean and lovely. They also had a hot shower which was a plus since we weren't able to have a hot shower for a while.

Nothing about the place, just the short road going there was a bit bumpy (we had a scooter).

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here! The place offers a relaxing feeling with the outside area and drinks and snacks available for sale. The owners are super friendly and helpful! We booked our snorkeling trip through them and they arranged a tuk-tuk to come and pick us up. They also helped to arrange transport to El Nido after our stay here. The place is not near the beach, but there are many great breakfast restaurants nearby and the beach is only a 10 minutes walk away. I would definitely recommend visiting and swimming at White Beach when you arrive in Port Barton. Thank you for a wonderful stay! Great value for money!

Les hôtes sont exceptionnellement gentils, serviables et toujours prêts à vous aider. L’emplacement est à la fois proche du centre tout en étant excentré dans une petite rue, accessible à 5-10min de marche. Établissement propre et bien entretenu, rapport qualité/prix +++.

Adorable

Super hostel, très confortable et propre. Le patron est aux petits soins pour ses clients. Il peut aider pour les excursions, louer un scooter, réserver un transfert,… Super adresse

Rien

Simplicité, authenticité, sincérité, entouré de végétation, propriétaire sur place, accueil chaleureux

Pas de sdb privative

Nous avions pris ce logement en dernière minute, nous avons été contents de ce choix. Super accueil dans la bienveillance. Chambre propre, salle de bain partagée mais cela ne nous a pas dérangé. C’était propre et il y avait même de l’eau chaude. La wifi marche super bien dans la chambre. Plusieurs services sont proposés comme la location de scooter. Nous avons fait laver notre linge sur place, plusieurs jours après les vêtements sentent encore bon la lessive.

L’accueil, l’emplacement, la chambre est équipée d’une Clim, sèche cheveux, et eau chaude. Café et eau à disposition. Nos hôtes sont adorables et attentionnés. Ils nous ont réservé un tour en bateau, loué un scooter et réservé notre transport pour El Nido. Je recommande absolument.

It's a really nice place in a local area of Port Barton. Away from the noise and party of the tourist part of town. Management was extremely friendly and helpful. A little bit of a walk to the place but at the same time close to everything.

Comfortable, yet small room. Good A/C and the staff were very friendly. Free drinking water, tea and coffee. It’s really quiet and peaceful

Bathroom didn’t smell great when we arrived. Location is a little out of the way but only a 10 minute walk to beach.

Safe and friendly staff

Everything was good. Unfortunatly we could only stay 1 night as they were fully booked for the following days

Les propriétaires sont très accueillants et aux petits soins pour vous aider si besoin Le logement est propre et confortable Ils vous aident pour les transports et il est possible de faire faire des lessives

The whole place is well located. The room wasn’t exactly like in the description, but it was clean and had enough space to spend a couple of days.

I booked a room advertised as having a private balcony and mountain view. My room had no balcony at all and the worst view possible - a common area where everyone was walking in and out. I couldn’t even open the curtains because there was absolutely no privacy, and I could hear every single word from other guests. When I asked about the balcony, I was told that a part of the public area where were two sits was considered my “balcony”, which made me feel like I was being made a fool of. I initially wanted to rate this place a 6, as not everything was bad. However, shortly after I left, I received an email from Booking stating that the owner had reported that I did not check in. He knew I was dissatisfied with my stay and clearly did not want me to leave a review. This is an extremely dishonest practice, completely unacceptable, and unforgivable.

La sympathie des hôtes, l'accueil et les conseils qu'ils m'ont donnés. J'ai été dans de bons restaurants, ils proposaient un service de Laundry qui était impeccable, le linge sentait propre et le service était très rapide ( -24h ) . La chambre était confortable et très propre ! Merci à June et sa famille pour tout. Je recommande !

Je n'ai eu aucun points négatif lors de mon passage.

Todo. Habitaciones limpias y amplias. Agua caliente, aire acondicionado y wifi. Dueños amables. Sin duda, si volviera a ir a Port Barton me alojaría de nuevo ahí.

Nous avons passé 5 nuits dans cette super guesthouse. Les gérants et leur fille sont adorables et le logement est très propre et fonctionnel. Nous avons passé un très bon séjour !

Ziah’s guesthouse is located in a quiet area of Port Barton but 5 min walking from the main restaurants and shops. I really liked and enjoyed my stay. The room is big and comfortable and the balcony with a wooden sofa and a table are a plus for chilling after a long day. June, the owner, and his wife are very sweet and are going to make your stay comfortable. You can ask any recommendations for visiting spots around Port Barton. Free coffee every day. Thanks a lot guys for your hospitality.

The warm and friendly welcome throughout our stay by Jun and Janice. The room had all convenient amenities, including multiple wall hangers, hand wash, hand towel, bath towels, 4 pillows, 2 blankets, mini table, soap, shampoo, and aircon. Fan was also provided upon request.

Bien propre et entretenu, Vous pouvez organiser les activités avec le propriétaire directement c'est très pratique, Tout peut se faire à pied

Everything was perfect. Very attentive host, fast wifi, clean room with AC. I would stay again!

The perfect place to stay! I came to stay at Ziah's after I traveled North and it felt like coming back home. I could easily relax, the facility is very clean and comfortable. Ziah and his wife try their best to help with whatever they can. The house is in a side road so it's calm and more tranquil. The short way there can be a bit muddy, depending on the weather, but nothing really problematic. The center is within walking distance. I am grateful I got to stay at Ziah's and to meet him and his family! I would love to come back!

Really friendly and helpful staff, room is basic and has everything you need including hot water shower.

部屋は清潔で虫が1匹もいません。エアコンも完璧です。 高速なWi-Fiもあります。 そして1番気に入った点はオーナーがとても親切だったことです。 私は英語がほとんど話せませんが彼があらゆることを手助けしてくれました。

時間によってはシャワーの水圧が少し弱い。 でもこれはパラワン全体で共通です。 必要十分です。い

Location wasn't too bad about a 15mins walk to the beach. Rooms were super basic. Laundry and tour services were available and the staff were friendly enough to sort taxis when needed.

The water in both the shower and tap stopped working twice during our stay and we were given 2 buckets of cold water to use in replacement.

Affordable and we actually felt quite cool in the fan room on an evening.

As two young female travellers, bare in mind its a bit like staying in a family home!

Very friendly staff, comfy beds, quite yet powerful Aircon, nice balcony, good towels, great WiFi. All round a wonderful place to stay. They also offer laundry, motorbike hire, island tour bookings and transfers to both el Nido and porta princessa.

Everything. Helpful staff,comfy bed,good shower. Also free water and coffee.

The staff were so nice, they went above and beyond for us: We checked in late, ourvan from puerto princessa arrived at 23 due to a delyed flight - they basically woke up to check us in and were so nice about it. They booked boat trip for us, and also a ride to el nido - everything was reliable and worked out great - they even helped us to the bus terminal

The room is simple and the bathroom are shared, it was ok for us, as we spent all the day outside at the beach.

He had the top floor room which one of the wooden ones. We enjoyed our stay here and thought the staff were absolutely incredible. You get free coffee or tea and also water refill. The location is good and close to most things and about 30-40 minutes walk from coconut beach. You can also book things through here such as motorbike, laundry, your onward travel or tours. The owner also has a karaoke machine is you ever interested in that. The only thing I would mention is the water in the shower doesn’t get hot but it’s warm (ish)

It is clean and the owner was very helpful to organize transport from Puerto Princessa.

The ground room is very, very noisy, there were people checking in, speaking very loudly next to our room at midnight and the owner did’nt say them anything about respecting others people night time. The walls are extremely thin, we were listening our neighbours argueing at 2 am, bikes and disco from a street all night like it’s next to your head. I think it’s not worth the price to have a sleepless night.

We spent one week here and we really loved this place. Shared toilets and common areas are always clean and the room was bigger that we expected looking at the pictures. Staff is super friendly, smily and helpful. There was free coffee and free water available all time and air con in the room. We totally recommend Ziah's! Thank you so much for everything😀

Felt like home. One of the two were always there to help the guests. They book all excursions for you.

I liked everything. There was a faint sound from a distant bar until late….but ear plugs took care of that.

One of our favourite places we stayed in the Philippines, such a lovely helpful owner, helped with booking transfer and tricycles :) really comfortable rooms and we had a shared balcony which was lovely, everywhere was clean and toilets/showers were nice, perfect location walking distance to the main town and near lots of nice restaurants (the goofy cheffe!!), but far enough that it was quiet at night; also if you go left at the end of the road and up the hill there is a lovely viewpoint

I really enjoyed my stay! The warmest hosts, always ready to help or do a little chat with. A very calm location away from any party, but still closeby. And it has pretty solid wifi for those working remote like me. The first floor terrace is a beautiful dry spot to sit at when a little monsoon hits.... Also one shower has hot water, if you crave this 🙏🏻

Everything was neat and clean. It was quiet and the owner and his wife were always there to exceed our needs. One of the few places with hot water.

Quiet and owners always there to answer your needs

The owner June was absolutely lovely he was not pushy with any tours and helped us so much during our stay! His family are also lovely. He helped us pick a great island hopping tour and he also provided a great air conditioned room. The rooms are basic but we felt it made it feel like a real Homestay rather than a hotel! I would highly recommend :)

Rooms are a little basic but perfectly suitable!

Ziahs guesthouse earns more than five stars. We have never been in place like this! They arranged everything ready for us including landtour, island hopping, scooter rent and others. They also do laundry here! They were so friendly and helped with everything. Room was clean and everything went superwell! Thnks again! Totally recommend to everybody, we were there with kids - as you can see kids loved this place too 😍

We booked few days more, best owners

The location, the tranquility, amazing owner very helpful.

Quite location. Stuff incredibly kind and helpful.

Quite place. Stuff extremely nice.

Ziah is the most welcoming, helpful and kind person we met in Philippines. We stayed in a cosy room with a private bathroom, free internet, walking distance from the city centre. Ziah took care of arrangement of our trips, transportation and gave wonderful recommendations. We were allowed to keep our luggage and take a shower after checkout. Best in class.

Quiet area, many restaurants and little shops 3 mins away. only a short walk to the town Centre and beach. Hosts were very welcoming and nice. The room and especially bathroom were very clean.

The room was quite dark as the main big window was blocked. a bedside table lamp would have been nice and sockets near the bed. the room could use some tlc but was totally fine for a few nights. There was a door separating two guest rooms which wasn’t insulated very well so I could hear my neighbors very closely.

We only stayed here for one night and for us it was perfect. Simple but a clean room and showers, also free drinking water and coffee. The family was very friendly and helped us with everything we wanted to do in Port Barton. The location was a 10 minute walk from the beach, bus station and some nice breakfast/diner places.

calm part of Port Barton, great prize, amazing hosts, refreshments (water, coffee, tea)

Great friendly place in a peaceful location about 10 minutes walk to the Reggae bar. My room ( upstairs ) was lovely. Free coffee and water and June is incredibly helpful.

Could have done with a mirror someplace maybe by the coffee place but that’s is really just picking..

Extremely clean room and facilities and friendly hosts. We loved the location, quiet but central.

Arrived late at night and wanted a quiet place to stay. Host very kindly arranged for food to be delivered so I didn’t have to go out into the town.

If I could give Ziah's Guest House more than five stars, I would definitely do so. And if someone would ask me to describe this place in just a few words, these will be: "A hidden island of genuine hospitality and welcoming visitors to Port Barton." Located just out of Port Barton, Ziah's is in an easy walking distance (10 min) to town's center and beach, but, yet, it is quiet and free of noise compared to other places. It is a small place with just four rooms, but it offered me all what I needed: clean and comfortable room, hot shower, strong WiFi, good communal kitchen. But the real "cherry on top of the cake" were my hosts: June and Janice. A couple with cheerful daughter, they also teach at the local school. I am very grateful to them for taking perfect care of all my needs, requests, questions, etc. Big THANKS June and Janice!

Not relevant question

Wonderful place. The owners June and Janice are very friendly, if you need something they will help you right away, take you where you need to go and wait. They will explain everything. Wonderful cozy house with good energy. Everything is conducive to rest and relaxation. Cozy rooms, shower with cold and hot water, which is not everywhere in the Philippines. Everything is clean and beautiful, a beautiful garden. I especially enjoyed drinking coconut milk straight from a coconut that the owner June had just picked from the garden. I would especially like to note that this house will be even more enjoyable for groups. I plan to bring my small group next year. I would like to come back here. You can book wonderful tours with diving and contemplation of corals directly from June and Jenic. For the first time on such a tour I saw a starfish. You can also rent a scooter. A house of opportunities and good energy. Here you will have a wonderful rest with your family or a group. Thank you so much Janice and June for this magical time. I want to come back here with my family.

Great people and a beautiful place to stay! I wanted to escape the noise of the Philippines and this was off the main road but close to everything. Owner is great too

Nada

the property had everything we needed, the owners were so lovely and helpful and helped us with everything including our trips and transportations!

The staff

Nothing

Good people who have a lot to improve. The place is cute, also the family, they try to fix quickly everything that you need but somethings they can not. A/C works good.

At may, 2024 internet connection doesn't work in rooms at all. But when your in a place where the signal is strong, it works really good. The rooms wall are made with a thin layer of bamboo I guess, so if in the next room you have unpolite people which almost always happen you won't sleep at all. The only confortable room is the number 1 which is in the ground level. In short i think for the price it doesn't worth it.

Room was clean, had lots of room for our stuff and the AC worked great! Host was very friendly and offered support for any questions we had! Would definitley recommend

Nothing

This guest house is away from the noise but centric to everywhere. Taytay beach is a couple of minutes away And you can take a short ride with tuktuk to the magnificent white beach and coconut beach. The host is super sweet and helpful and most of all very very clean. Although it has a shared bathroom there are enough to keep ypu comfortable at any time

The air conditioning was really good. The host was super lovely and always available and happy to help with anything. We rented a bike and did laundry and ordered a trike from him and he always had the same prices as everywhere else which was appreciated! The bed was also comfy, WiFi was great and needed as reception is very poor in the area. The shared bathroom was also always clean!

- Very clean - Comfortable beds - Fast internet - Good shower pressure - Free water and coffee - Assistance with tours, transportation, bike rental, laundry services, and helpful recommendations However, what truly sets this place apart is the incredibly kind and warm owner! Salamat Kuya June, we can't wait to return!

Lovely host! Comfortable bed! Has WiFi, air con and a running shower which can be hard to come by in port barton!

Nothing!
