The Beach House Carabao Island

so grateful to have experienced such authentic hospitality truly a charming place didn’t want to leave this piece of paradise!

David and his team made our stay perfect. Small, clean guest house with very friendly host and staff on small island with almost no tourists (during our stay we saw only 3 tourists. We really enjoyed our time on Carabao. We circled the island by boat, explored it by ATV, dived from the cliffs. David organized everything for us.

everything was good

Widok,jedzenie,czystość,obsługa,,wszystko razem,bardzo mi się podobało że jest cisza spokój,są kokosy prosto z drzewa,generalnie bardzo mi się podobało:)

Nie ma takiej rzeczy

Un posto speciale, di quelli che restano. Un piccolo affittacamere su un’isola quasi disabitata, gestito con grande cuore e attenzione. Qui ci si sente subito a casa. Silenzio, natura e un’accoglienza sincera. Il ristorante è davvero ottimo, e completa perfettamente l’esperienza. Se cercate pace, relax e autenticità, questo è il posto giusto.

Nulla

Very, very clean restaurant is good for me not to far to walk could do with railings for the steps to the beach find hard but owner is do it now on my return here

The staff are very helpful for over the top couldn’t wish for a better place to go very friendly and very very helpful as I’m disabled beautiful white sandy beach with lovely clear water

Absolutely incredible experience! This place is a true gem, perfectly located right on the beach, making every moment feel like paradise. The on-site restaurant was so accommodating and willing to make any dish vegetarian for us. The staff were beyond friendly and always had a smile on their faces, making us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. Huge shoutouts to Adita, Arial, and David who went above and beyond to make our trip unforgettable! We truly couldn’t have asked for a better stay and can’t wait to come back one day! My friends and I will never forget our stay here on this magical island.

We loved our stay at the Beach House on Carabao Island. It's very calm and relaxing and there aren't a lot of other tourists. The food was great and the staff very friendly. The owner David is great and helped us with the information how to get to the island and everything there is to do. For hotel guests snorkeling equipment, SUP's and kayaks are available complementarily. A nice reef is accesible from the beach right next to the hotel, though it has seen better days due to overfishing and boats riding over it.

There isn't much we did not like. Just some things to be aware if you book this place: Carabao Island is not very touristy and there are not many places to go to. Which we loved. The food is prepared freshly so it can take some time. For us it didn't matter because David informed us about it on arrival and time flies by watching waves :). The rooms are a bit dated, and for the Europeans eye a couple of details are off. But as you spend most of the time outside at the beach bar, that's alright!

Beautiful setting, quiet beach and great rooms - very spacious

I couldn’t stay longer !

The location is superb, on a lovely beach with a good coral reef for snorkelling. The staff are great and the food is very good and reasonably priced. The owner David is great and we had interesting conversations over a good glass of red wine, which is often hard to find!

Nothing.

The island is beautiful and calm, you could really relax and take a walk hours around the island and on the beach. The Beach House is located right on the beach, the owner is very helpful and kind. Staff is nice, but sometimes it is not easy to find them in the place. The rooms are old-fashioned but very clean and well-maintained, so are the common areas.

Sometimes it is not easy to find the staff in the place.

It is right on the beach, there are a lot of free of charge facilities to make the beach stay great (kayaks, SUPs, snorkel gear) - a really nice touch. The food is very tasty, the wine list is also great, good wines selection. David, the owner, is great and very hands-on and helpful.

N/A

Wow, what a hotel, I was very lucky as it's run by an English guy called David who looked after me so well. The hotel was absolutely perfect right on this most amazing unspoilt beech, serving some incredible wines and delicious food. David was kind enough to organise an island tour on the island new road and if you are looking for paradise then Carabao island is a great choice. I spent 2 days on Boracay but when you arrive on Carabao island it's like stepping back in time in nature. Life is good and slow and you can escape the rat race and stresses of your previous world. The hotel is very upper class with amazing staff and nothing is too much trouble. I am coming here again next year.

Leaving

Everything .. beautiful spot .. friendly staff

The owner David is a very very friendly and helpful person. You can have very great conversations with him. Also Hannah did a great job! The food was amazing too.

All good.

Location, the tranquility and the staff.

Maybe have more readily accessible current information on activities and options to see and do around the island

We had a very relaxing 3 night stay at The Beach House. The home cooked food and wine selection was excellent and the staff couldn’t do enough to ensure that we enjoyed our stay. They arranged a snorkelling and fishing trip for us and also a land tour of the Island. Nothing is too much trouble. Pick up and drop off from Boracay by speedboat was easily arranged too. The Beach House is right on the beach, with beautiful sunsets, and so you wake and sleep to the sound of the waves. If you want to get away from it all, this is the place for you!

Be prepared for the occasional power outage but only to be expected in such a location.

Good size rooms, comfortable beds, friendly attentive staff

Amazing place with private beach, charming staff and beautiful views. Owner helped us with getting to the Island - good contact. i highly recommend.

My opinion is that it is really the best hotel on the island Carabao. It is located just on the beach. It looks like a big villa. The owner of this house is David, who always is very funny and makes a lot of jokes, who can help, recommend or organize your trip around all island. All rooms there are small but nice and comfortable. The personal is very modest, quite and nice. The hotel has a big lawn with an exit to the beach, two small pavilions with tables and chairs, 2 sofa - beds where personal can put a linen, also it has a small bar where you can order some drinks or fruits like an appetize. The sea is clean and it has a big coral where you can swim with masks and flippers. Also the hotel can give you swimming board or acvashoes for free. I really recommend you this hotel if you want to relax and see all beauties of the Carabao. It is very atmosphere place!

Wonderful! We booked 1 night in this really cool beach bungalow and it was so good that we extended our stay for 3 days (and got a good discount). It was right on the beach and felt like we were on our very own desert island, waking up to the sound of the waves and taking a swim in the fantastically clear warm water before breakfast. We didn’t see any tourists at all on the beach, just some locals taking a walk and kids playing in the water, it was surreal after staying in Boracay with all the crowds and noise! The staff gave us snorkeling stuff for free and David the owner led us out to see the incredible variety of coral, which started just a short distance from the beach and though we saw many varieties of fish, it seems that there were many more before the pandemic, but the locals have decimated the stock as there was no work for them. But the starfish were prolific, we counted 10 different colors including some really bright blue ones, but be careful of the sea urchins, they’re only on the coral, so don’t swim over the coral at low tide. Ely took us for an island tour in this amazing 6 seater off road UTV, it could go anywhere and we took off road tracks to cliff jumps, deserted beaches and caves, this is a must, which you would never find if you hired motorcycles. Now the restaurant on this fantastic balcony (or you can eat at the beach bar). The food my god was soo good, Malou and the other staff were such good cooks, with both local and foreign dishes, don’t miss the yummy spicy spareribs, the stuffed baby squid, the curry, the adobo and of course the seafood; simply delicious! We wanted to stay longer and wished we had come here first and not bothered with Boracay, so sad to leave and will defiantly be back and skip the Boracay stay!
