Wir waren 2 x für eine Nacht dort, es handelt sich um ein Holzhaus auf Stelzen im Garten eines Hause, die Durchfahrt unter dem Haus ist nicht leicht zu finden, die Google-Maps-Adresse stimmt aber, es ist alles sehr rustikal, hat aber Charme. Kühlschrank unter dem Haus ist auch vorhanden. Gut gefallen hat uns das Badezimmer in einer Art Schuppen weniger Meter neben dem Holzhaus, Check-in war unkompliziert, Preis/Leistung war top.

the ambiance
everything
Leider wurde diese Unterkunft doppelt Verbucht und wir konnten nicht einziehen. Trotz große Worte der Gastgeberin wir sollen Booking schreiben und bei Erhalt der Anfrage von Booking würden wir den Betrag zurück erhalten,; geschah es nicht. Laut Booking hat sich die Gastgeberin bei Ihnen nicht gemeldet und somit haben wir den Betrag verloren. Eine richtige Abzockerei
Nothing
When we arrived there, the woman who owns the property told us it wasn’t ment to be rent now and we weren’t welcome. So we had no place to sleep and relax and had to book a different place. Till now we also didn’t get our money back. I think this property should be deleted from Booking.com
Beautiful property
Steep walk down can be slippery.
Uniques property and design.
Steep walk down can be slippery when wet.
Cute hut
Hard to find the exact spot
We stayed in this small cabin for 3 days and 2 nights and truly enjoyed the experience. The fresh air, peaceful surroundings, and relaxing ambiance made it the perfect place to slow down and unwind. It gave us the quiet space we needed to rest, recharge, and spend quality time bonding as a family.
-There was an unexpected interruption in the water supply during our stay, which was a bit disappointing cuz we have to fetch water back and forth from their storage outside the cabin though its not their fault actually. -I was briefly awakened by a noise from the cabin wall, similar to a cat scratching on the bamboo, though I wasn’t sure what caused it.
Le lieu est en contrebas de la route, on s’y trouve seul, dans la verdure c’est incroyable ! Dommage de pas avoir réserver une seconde nuit ☺️
Les alentours sont assez bruyants (mais c’est comme ça dans ce coin là)
The location was just beside the highway. . The peacefulness of the place. Netflix is available. Bed was comfy.
Motorcycle parking is difficult since parking area is too steep. Incomplete kitchen utensils. AC has not cooled the sleeping area, maybe replace it with a higher horsepower.
Very relaxing, nice nature, helpful staff! 😊
my booking was cancelled kindly refund my payment
This cabin earned a 10/10 from me. Great experience to overnight there. It's also quite silent there at night, which is not that common in the Philippines here. The owner is very friendly and helpful. I can advise this cabin to everyone.
Nothing really...
This is a very cozy and authentic little house in the forest. One of the best things is the self check-in — you just arrive, and everything is ready for you. The property is beautiful and peaceful, and you basically have the whole area to yourself. The bathroom isn’t inside the house, but it’s just a few steps away, and it’s not a problem at all — everything is absolutely comfortable. The biggest advantage is that it’s located close to the waterfall and not too far from Cebu. This place is truly unique and helps you fully disconnect and recharge while being surrounded by nature. Every little detail in the house is carefully thought out, and the interior is so well designed — it makes the whole place feel super cozy and special. I would happily come back here again. Thank you for this wonderful experience!
So cozy! And it’s really in the nature and no one bothers you! At the same time the facilities and cleanliness are wonderful!
The water from the sink is not working (too small) and the parking was not specified. It would be great if there would be 2nd layer of curtain that can cove the lights during the day, because the lights go through the curtain and we got awaken right away early morning.
Cozy and romantic place. Super unique. Super host !!! Great value. Great location. Super quiet too. Clean place with tv and air conditioning, plus they had a good sound system that included karaoke.
Only cold water for shower and not great water pressure but I knew that in advance. Another warning to renters that the walk from the road is a bit steep so if you are old or scared of slightly steep inclines, this is not the place for you. I only mention these so the owner doesn’t get complaints from people who think they MUST have these. After all, it’s the Philippines and many places are like this. I will definitely stay here again any time I am in Barili. We loved it so much.
It’s nice because of its exclusivity, we’re the only guest in the property so it is perfect for family gatherings. I love their restroom!
I wish they have an “honest store” for basic commodities like drinking water, canned goods, hygiene essentials, and any beverages since the area is a bit far from convenience stores. Also, a hanging area for wet clothes is a good idea to have that’s missing here.
We appreciated the clean status and the really lovely decorated compound! Its a really special accomodation and its situated nicely between big green banana and palm trees. The sound at night was fabulous! So in total - the setup and decoration and shower and cleanliness was very nice! There are two hammocks, a cooking possibility and a big net to lay or sleep in upstairs!
The only thing which was a problem: We booked for 3 people and there were no bed linen/sheets! We used the curtains and towels as bed lines/sheets. Also the person sleeping in the upper bed had a crazy hard ground to sleep. The bed mattress downstairs is made of plastic, you get very wet from sweating. I chose the net outside to sleep in as it was too small for two people to sleep downstairs. We would reccomend to put 2 better mattreaces in the cabin and don't forget to put enough bed linen/sheets - besides this this cabin woukld be a really special and nice stay! The street is not very far away, so duringf the day it is quiet loud, but in the night it would be OK for most people. The nice sound of all the animals in the greens is more present - what I really loved!
Excellent customer service from the host.
Nested in a farmland, away from the buzzing town, you have the tranquility and whole cabin by yourself. Make bonfires, say hello to stray dogs.
No sign from the roadside. Hard to find. Steep entrance. Uncontactable owner but luckily helpful neighbour got me on habal-habal to the owner’s house in town. Very kind owner and staff, tried to comfort me with free motorbike rent but the bike is very old and have many problems. Note that the cabin is second floor and the toilet is in another building. If you don’t ride bike, this cabin is 20 minutes walk to town.
its cute and refreshing scenery
