Provider-sourced guest reviews.
We had the most amazing stay, and had the whole place to ourselves. Relaxing by the pool was a highlight! Orange juice on arrival was a lovely touch. Restaurant attached with really good food and reasonable prices (they even made us some boiled eggs and pineapple juice to take to the airport as we were missing breakfast for our early flight). The view from our room was spectacular, perfect position to watch the sunset! The staff were lovely and very helpful in organising a driver for us to get to the airport early. They also offer free transport from the accomodation down to ocam-ocam beach. Rooms were spacious and comfortable, shower pressure was great and bathrooms were clean! Definitely regret not staying an extra day just to unwind and relax!
The road on the way in is steep in parts and unsealed road (not ideal after rain) - something to keep in mind if arriving by scooter.

Environnement très agréable et panorama à couper le souffle, un peu isolé mais calme et reposant. Bungalow typique avec un confort moyen , salle de bain un peu rustique. Personnel adorable et restaurant très correct mais avec un choix limité. Nous retiendrons l'endroit magnifique et l'accès à la plage de Ocam ocam beach avec un tuktuk gratuit proposé par l'établissement..un plus.
Amazing accommodation surrounded by nature. Sea view right from the cottage, you can admire the sunset. Peace and quiet everywhere. Ocam Ocam beach is easily accessible, you can arrange a boat trip to Black Island. The rooms are simple but clean and fully adequate. Nice pool. The staff is very friendly and helpful.
The access road to the accommodation is up a steep hill, people with reduced mobility may have problems. It is not possible to exchange dollars or pay with them in the area. Bring enough cash in local currency with you.
Op de eerste plek hadden we gratis ontbijt met leuk uitzicht. Daar was free shuttle naar strand; fijn, want zo'n 20 minuten lopen en steile klim c.q. afdaling. Wij verhuisden - zonder bijbetalen - naar nieuwe locatie van zelfde eigenaar, pal aan Ocam Ocam beach. Dat was erg aardig en ons verblijf daar was heel relaxed. Werkelijk geweldige plek, superstrand, schaduw, zeer aardige en behulpzame lokale mensen. Op en top gerelaxed daar. Op de oorspronkelijke locatie was wel een zwembad. Dat hebben we in het begin gebruikt, maar later toen we aan het strand zaten niet meer. Eten was prima. En aan het strand waren circa 4 prima eetgelegenheden, met ruime keuze aan lekker eten. Wij hebben op ocam ocam hilot massage gehad, de beste van de 5x dat we dit deden op Busuanga. Gastheer regelde dit en ook de uitstekend verzorgde boottocht naar Black Island voor prima prijs. Is vlakbij en onderweg zagen we een walvis vlakbij!
De eerste plek (mét zwembad, zonder strand) was afgelegen. Airco maakte absurd veel lawaai, hield ons uit de slaap. Er zijn 2 huisjes met mooi uitzicht, die hadden wij niet. Rioollucht in badkamer. Ventilator draaide niet, waardoor we er weinig aan hadden. In tweede huisje draaide hij gelukkig wel. Kamer was niet af te sluiten; overigens waren wij geen moment bang voor diefstal, maar wel beetje vreemd. Op de tweede plek van dezelfde eigenaar (aan het strand) maakte de airco veel minder lawaai.
Las vistas.
El acceso es imposible para una persona que no este en forma, una cuesta muy grande de tierra y con muchos boquetes con un % de desnivel muy elevado. Muy poco profesional la mujer de recepción, aparte de ser irresponsable ya que nos dejó colgados con una excursión que habíamos contratado con ella, momentos antes nos la cancela sin margen de poder buscar otra solución, encima borde no queriendo hacerse responsable y diciendo que no es su problema, está claro era el nuestro que nos fastidió el día.
ESPECTACULAR. Las fotos lo le hacen justicia a las vistas que hay. Todo un oasis de paz. Muchas gracias por todo!!
La posizione è splendida, completamente immersa nel verde, e fare colazione lì è stato davvero fantastico. Il personale è gentile e disponibile. La strada per arrivare è piuttosto complicata, soprattutto in scooter: gli ultimi dieci minuti sono su fondo dissestato e l'ultima parte è abbastanza ripida. Tuttavia, la struttura offre un servizio gratuito di navetta da e per la spiaggia, che è davvero magnifica, quindi questo rende gli spostamenti molto più semplici e la strada non diventa un vero problema. Nel complesso il soggiorno è stato davvero piacevole e lo consigliamo vivamente. È inoltre possibile organizzare tour direttamente tramite la struttura. Offrono anche la possibilità di portare il cibo, che viene poi cucinato durante il tour, rendendo l'esperienza ancora più completa e comoda.
Jättemysigt mitt ute i djungeln och vi såg apor utanför balkongen! Min pojkvän fyllde jämnt och jag var i kontakt med personalen (Rachelle m fl) innan som såg till att vi fick bungalowen med bästa utsikten. Sen hjälpte de mig att dekorera vår balkong under dagen när vi var på stranden. Resorten är ganska liten men också då personlig. Det är en ca 15 min promenad ner till stranden, brant backe, men du får skjuts ner och blir hämtad med tuktuk. Vid stranden finns några restauranger, några som hör till andra resorts och en strandbar/restaurang öppen för alla. Helt ok att äta på och där var också en samlingspunkt både på dagen och kvällen. Stranden är fin och lugn, alldeles bredvid en skola.
Möjligtvis att det låg långt från stranden. Och lite väl lugnt för oss.
We had a truly wonderful stay at Ocam Ocam Azur Inn and would return without hesitation. What makes this place so special are Rachel and Mar Mar. Their kindness, personal care, and genuine warmth go far beyond anything you would normally expect. They look after their guests with so much attention and heart that you never feel you’re missing anything — quite the opposite, you feel deeply cared for. The hotel is beautifully and quietly located on a hill, surrounded by jungle, with breathtaking sea views on three sides. The sunsets are absolutely stunning. From our terrace, we even watched a monkey moving through the trees — an unforgettable moment. The beach is about a 15-minute walk downhill; the way back takes a bit longer due to some steep sections. Alternatively, Mar Mar is happy to give you a ride on his tricycle, which is both convenient and fun. Rachel is an excellent cook and prepares everything fresh — the food was consistently delicious and made with great care. The rooms are simple and rather spartan, but very tastefully and artistically designed, which fits perfectly with the natural surroundings and relaxed atmosphere.
L’emplacement loin du bruit des coqs et des chiens avec une vue magique, l’accueil chaleureux de Marmar et Rachel, la cuisine de Rachel est excellent, Marmar est aux petits soins pour ses clients, ses recommandations pour manger comme le restaurant de langouste sur la plage où il nous a amené, Marmar réalise un service de navette pour la plage, il est toujours prêt à rendre service, nous avions besoin de cigarettes alors il est allé en chercher pour nous. Le petit déjeuner était très bon avec des fruits fruits et délicieux, Rachel est absolument adorable également, ensemble ils forment un couple d’hôtelier qui n’a rien à envier aux grands hôtels. Ils se sont également occupé de tout pour nous, pour les transferts, le transport des valises, bref, c’est un établissement qui mérite d’être connu. Les chambres sont juste ce que nous attendions, avec un balcon et une vue incroyable sur le coucher de soleil. Toute l’équipe est extrêmement serviable, souriante et adorable.
Nous avons tout aimé
The pool was nice as was the vegetation around it. Food was excellent!!
Room was so small! Could not get out of bed on the sides. Only 2 lights in place. Nothing in “bedroom”. Skimpy old towel. No hand towel or face. Air conditioner to weak for the heat. Took hours to cool down. Terrible mosquito problem. Ate us alive. No electricity from 8 am to 6:20 pm so no ability to use phones etc. couldn’t get anything cold to drink. The bathroom stunk terribly. From toilet or drains?
Personalens vänlighet och hjälpsamhet. Utsikten.
Att beskrivningen på hemsidan inte överensstämmer med verkligheten.
Prachtig uitzicht, zwembadje fijn maar klein, enorm lief behulpzaam personeel, prima eten en drinken, 15 min lopen naar zee, daar was ook café voor drankje of lunch Mooi strand dichtbij
Airco veel lawaai, douche ruikt muf, kranen lekken. Onderhoud nodig.
Nice nature getaway Pool with cold water Staff extremely helpful / friendly Beach within a 15 minute walk and free transport arranged Boat trips available from the nearby beach
The foods available are mostly processed foods: white bread, spam meat, sausage, etc We had electricity outage from 8am to 5pm for 3 days and only 1 day the generator was on. Standard situation in rural Philippines, just so you know Beach nearby less suitable for swimming (rocky / plants) but very nice for kayaking, the sand, the relaxed vibe, friendly community
El personal, un encanto! La ubicación es ideal si buscas algo alejado de todo en medio de la naturaleza. El camino a la playa es una pequeña caminata pero si vas con tiempo es ideal. Las cabañitas son muy lindas y el hecho de que el personal también duerma allí están disponibles con lo que necesiten. Te cocinan allí, muy rico y hecho con cariño. La única recomendación es la llegada - Ir desde el aeropuerto te recomiendan un transfer que son 3000 PHP (muy caro). Te recomendamos que vayas hasta Salvación (la terminal) y de ahí a las cabañas con el transfer que te recomiendan son 1000 PHP. El camino para ir en moto o coche de alquiler (sobre todo el último tramo) es bastante complejo. Muchos baches y tierra.
Nada! :)
La beauté des lieux La gentillesse du personnel Le calme de l’endroit La proximité avec la plage à 10 min à pied
Rien à signaler
For the breakfast you can choose out of four different offers. There is a poolbar and restaurant with great availability offering some drings and food for lunch and dinner. Great views from the cottage. Starlink Internet. Nice staff always available.
Cleaning of rooms is on demand only. This is not a problem you just need to know it. There is sometimes no power which was also not a problem. I did not get used to the cold shower - even it was warm but thats me :-)
L'emplacement est magnifique, dans la verdure, au sommet d'une montagne, avec une vue magnifique sur la baie de OcamOcam et Black island 🏞. Rachel et Marmar, absolument épatants, serviables et gentils 🙏🏼. Et la piscine, les repas de Rachel (délicieux), les trajets en moto avec Marmar pour aller à la plage, la plage, le chant des oiseaux... et les singes que nous avons pu observer depuis notre terrasse 🐒
Pour nous, et uniquement pour nous, le sol de la salle de bain qui la maintient humide tout le temps, et la quantité impressionnante de marches pour se déplacer dans l'hôtel 😩
La vista es espectacular, el alojamiento está bonito y el personal es muy amable. Es un sitio muy tranquilo, solo se escuchan los pajaros y el mar
La wifi es inestable, si la necesitas para organizar el viaje es un poco complicado, pero si no tienes esa necesidad, entonces es perfecto 🙂
Un cadre exceptionnel depuis notre bungalow avec une vue magnifique sur Ocam Ocam et Black Island, l’accueil chaleureux de Rachel et Marmar, et le caractère sauvage du lieu : petit-déjeuner à quelques mètres de singes, rencontres avec des insectes insolites et des geckos fascinants. Pour ceux qui tiennent absolument à un confort matériel classique — eau chaude à volonté, calme total pour dormir — cet endroit n’est pas fait pour vous. Ici, l’expérience est avant tout naturelle et authentique, avec son charme sauvage et ses petits imprévus qui font tout le caractère du lieu.
De communicatie met hotel was niet goed. Ze wilden ons niet helpen bij wijziging van onze plannen door overmacht. Zo hebben w volledig moeten betalen voor iets waar we geen gebruik van hebben gemaakt. De locatie is ver gelegen in een omgeving waar niets te doen is.
Le lieu était paisible, la vue sur la mer incroyable, l'accueil et l'accompagnement de l'équipe et en particulier de Marmar dans nos excursions exceptionnels! La piscine était très agréable, le restaurant au top, le logement pas très grand mais suffisant pour des vacances. La végétation environnante et ses habitants, oiseaux, lézards, insectes peut surprendre mais pour nous c'était magnifique. Pour ceux qui recherchent l'authenticité et les rencontres, cet hôtel est fait pour vous. De plus, la proximité avec le dugong watching et black island nous a permis de faire de belles et longues balades. PS j'oubliais les couchers de soleils de notre terrasse rouge intenses!
Absolument rien!
Wij hebben enorm genoten. Super vriendelijk personeel die je overal bij willen helpen Fijne huisjes met leuke balkonnetjes met prachtig uitzicht. Je moet wel goed ter been zijn want er het ligt op een heuvel en er zijn overal trappen. Een heerlijk zwembad! Het strand vlakbij is een goede uitvalsbasis voor uitstapjes. Black island en zwemmen.met zeekoeien (een aanrader!)
Er viel ons weinig tegen. Alleen hangt ee een niet al te frisse rioollucht in de badkamer. Daar kan het hotel waarsch niks aan doen. De douche heeft niet echt warm water, meer lauw/ koud. Maar dat is verder geen probleem met de temperaturen in de Filippijnen.
The common dinning and pool area. Closeness to Ocam Ocam beach and the organised trips to Black island and dugong watching. Free drinkable water for refill.
Communication in english was poor when ordering food. When using free shuttle to ocam ocam beach it was hard to call for pickup (no signal) or we have to wait long for pick up.
The scenery and setting from the breakfast area. Breakfast was also nice and cooked to order.
We weren’t given a key to the room for our 2 night stay. The initial welcome was underwhelming and it felt like we were an inconvenience to the staff being there. The pool was ok but not kept clean of leaves and bugs. It is also about a mile to the beach and some other restaurants so a bit isolated. Boat trips were expensive and there was no effort made to find other guests or people to share the costs. It felt like the attitude was “you can afford it if you can afford to stay here”.
The view from the room was simply stunning.
It was very basic for the price.
We stayed in this amazing little resort set in an immaculate portion of the rain forest. You can rent at a reasonable price a wooded cottage. We had a triple vacancy although we were a party of 2. The room is basic but cozy and tipycally made with local fabrics. The gem there is the patio with an amazing view of the forest and the ocean. From there you can stare at the sunset and it is breathless. The terrace is the heart of the resort because all the activities take place there. Guests can have their breakfast but also lunch and dinner. The selection of the food is a bit poor because during our stay ( 14 nights ) many times our dinner picks were not available. We spoke with the local manager Eric about this lack and he was very helpful and provided us organic food for our breakfast and more selection for our meals at night. In general all teh staff is very attentive and ready to help you if you are in trouble or you simply needs good tips for visiting the island or reserve an excursion. We high recommend this place if you are looking for something far from the chaotic habits of the big cities and if you like to melt your soul with mother nature. We advice to enhance the menù for breakfast including fresh fruits or sweeties such as: pancakes and similar. A special thanks to Mr Eric and his precious staff
If you want to get away from the maddening crowds that is El Nido, or even Coron, this is the perfect place to be. Hidden away on a hill overlooking the sea, here you’ll find a peaceful place where you can truly enjoy the beauty that is the Philippines. Make sure you do a tour to see the dugongs and the school of fish that’s just in front of Black Island!
Non applicable
Great view in a nice remote village and beach next to the ocean. The staff is very friendly and does everything they can to make your holiday unforgettable. They did my laundry (small costs) and the meals were delicious. Nice hut with privacy shower/bathroom. It is nice to have a pool nearby and relaxing.
Not much. Just recommendations: would nice to have fresh fruit on the menu and more choice of vegetables. Also would be nice to have more in stock of the (fruit drinks) or the menu in total. The towels are very thin and hardly take water. It is advisable to bring your own.
Quiet and nice, great staff and food
We had the best time here
Nothing
Amazing view from the mountain across the bay. Close to the beach if you have a motorcycle (5min) but they also arrange transport if you need it. Really calm athmosphere, clean, fresh, beautiful. Super nice staff. Loved the banana shake with milk especially. And the beach has incredible snorkelling and barely any tourists on top of it all. Great value for money.
Make sure to take enough cash as there is no ATM close.
Everything
The food was not so special
We stayed at Azur Inn for three nights and had a great time! The staff are lovely and made us feel at home. We had a boat tour organised by them to Black Island and also 2 campfire nights at their fire pit. Other facilities are great, the pool is lovely and restaurant also serves good food. The rooms are clean and the hotel is very close to a beach which we enjoyed. A great place for a few days away as it is exceptionally secluded but was great for relaxing.
The hotel is an hour away by motorbike from the nearest ATM machine, only takes cash and is very isolated. The staff are very understanding and let us build up a tab which we paid off later, however, this is something to keep in mind if your looking for a more exciting holiday. Something to note is that the showers only run cold water.
Beutiful accomondation and the staff was so kind, helpful and friendly.
Nothing :-)
Location was perfect to relax
location near beautiful beach, great and very helpfull staff (thank you Eric and Alma!)
nothing really
The naturre and the food in the restarant.
We had a lovely, relaxing stay in a room with a stunning view. It was very quiet, with only the sound of the many animals around, making it very peaceful. The pool and restaurant area were lovely, especially at sunset, and it was convenient to be able to eat at the hotel. Ocam Ocam beach was a nice, un-touristy area and very close to the stunning Black Island.
The walk to the beach was short, but was steep and ruggard. They do offer trike rides up and down the hill before 4pm, but as there are a lot of steps around the property, it wouldn't be suitable for anyone with mobility issues.
Great Location. Peaceful.
The beach. The guesthouse could have advised us which beach to go to that was seaweed free.
Just a little paradise on top of the mountain. Loved the views and the pool to cool down. Everything was well thought about. Perfect! 🙏
Beautiful view friendly staff
Pretty remote, far away from the rest of the island d
Mosly, , the staff, superb and very helpful. Thank you ALL! Next, the silence and the view, sunset etc. The internet was very good. Food was excellent and a lot to choose from.
The steps to go anywhere on the site, From your chalet to the restaurant or reception/parking. The shower water temperature is fresh as there is no heated water in the chalet . Electricity can be cut for a day and it did,
I can only agree with the opinions already posted. The location is excellent if you love seclusion , the view is beautiful and the staff is very accommodating and friendly. The beach is only a 10-15 minute walk away and the sunset from the hotel bar/terrace is an absolute dream. We also grew very fond of the hotel dog Coco and the neighbor's dog, they are two lovely dogs. Please treat them well and pet them thoroughly! :-) All in all, we can absolutely recommend the accommodation for a relaxing holiday and thank you again for the wonderful time.
Breakfast: poor choice. Location: superb.
Breakfast poorly.
Very calm and peaceful atmosphere in the forest with monkeys, geckos and toucans, and a great view! Alma the hotel manager is the absolutely best, also the other staff is very warm and friendly. We really enjoyed our stay!
Staff very helpful they try to help us a lot with tours and sites to visit close to this area , small poll but very confortable and the restaurant good service and good food. . The room was clean and big
far away from sea very steep slope to come back from beach is the only point to highlight the rest was really ok
The views are absolutely stunning and the staff were amazing. They became our friends and family for life and we will be sad to say goodbye. We have been travelling for three months and we can honestly say this was one of the nicest places we have stayed in. The views are breathtaking and the food was delicious. Stop scrolling and book this place before they are fully booked, you will not be disappointed. We got a lift everyday down to the beach or boats where you can go to Pass Island (beautiful little island, like paradise), Black Island (another stunning island with Monitor Lizards you can go and see) and you can book a boat trip to see the Dugongs and swim with turtles. We stayed on this side of Coron for 10 days and it was definitely worth it. I don’t usually write reviews but I had to for here because it is a little piece of paradise I have only seen in my dreams until now!
Nothing!
We had amazing time in OcamOcam! Staff is amazing, very helpful and friendly. OcamOcam Azur Inn, is perfect place to relax in the middle of forest with the best views during the meals. Perfect view for a sea, hills, sunsets and sunrises. You can see also monkeys in the forest if you will be lucky! Thank you for everything, hopefully to be back there one day.

Very clean cottages, friendly staffs

The views - everywhere you look, you will be amazed. This hotel is the best place if you want to relax, meditate and generally be away from the crowd. It is over 1 hour drive from the airport with not much around - which we loved. The restaurant was also very good with lots of choice. The pool area was perfect for relaxing and watch the sunrise. The staff are very nice, always making sure we had what we needed, and also drove us to the beach. (you can also walk there). The owners were amazing and made sure we had the best stay. We were there for 4 days and could have stayed longer. We loved everything about it and will be back for sure.
Not a fan of cold showers but my partner loved it.
This was such a beautiful place to stay, all the staff were amazing and we were sad to leave. Highly recommend staying here.
Nothing
Beautiful sea and island views as the property is at the top of the hill. We recommend watching sunset from the hotel dinning area. Really tasty freshly prepared food (some of the best we’ve had to date in the Philippines). Very clean rooms, each bungalow is on stilts and has its own balcony and two seats. The staff were all really welcoming and clearly cared about our comfort during our stay. It’s a short journey downhill to Ocam Ocam beach where you can snorkel and relax. We took our bikes to make the journey back up hill a little easier. If you’re an animal lover, the property dogs are cute, good natured and well cared for. There are three medium to large lizards that help to keep the bugs at bay and we were also lucky enough to be visited by the local monkeys.
This was a paradise. Located on a hill near the beach you get a great view and a privacy from other houses. The facility is brand new yet looks very local, has a beautiful pool and the best staff, that was super polite and helpful. Helped us organized transport, day trips and other stuff with smile on their face. Great kitchen, both breakfasts and main meals were bit pricey but absolutely worth it. Thank you so much Alma, Marmar and others for making our stay in Busuanga awesome!
For the price of privacy its bit harder to reach and beach is therefore bit far (but staff organizes transport). Also with thin walls everything can be heard (both people and animals) and the air conditioner was so loud we had to switch it off and were bit hot. Despite these things we would definitely go here again.
Remote location Great views Great staff Pool
No hot water Limited dinner menus Room needs a kettle
Ocam Ocam azur inn has rooms with beautiful view on Ocam Ocam beach and Black Island. We spent 3 days peacefully relaxing on the beach. The staff helped us reach the beach with their transport, we also tried to walk is around 15 mins. We had breakfast and dinner in the property and it was quite good.
All good
From the pool-dining area you will have the most outstanding view you can imagine and you will witness the best sunsets of your life. The manager is incredibly kind and efficient and will give you the best advices to plan your trip and to find the cheapest drivers.
No hot water in the shower...but you won't need it 😉
This place is so peaceful, a little bit of heaven on Earth.. you can spend time alone in zen modus nature here. Alma, the host of the place, rocks! She and the other staff are so genuine, kind and fun. I only spent two days here, but I already feel part of the family 😍
I loved everything, wouldn’t change a thing
the Breakfast is good it is just not a lot of choices
the hut has mice squeeking although they said it's a mountain mice, I'm still scared that they can go in our bedroom.
Interesting jungle location on top of hill with great view over Ocam Ocam bay and surroundings. Kids loved seeing monkeys and the pet dog and puppy! Staff were lovely.
Very basic accommodation for the price. A bit isolated with quite a walk and climb to and from the beach Pool wasn’t the cleanest with murky water.
We had a very pleasant stay at OcamOcam Azur Inn. Due to low season we were almost the only guests in the place and thus the atmosphere was very intimate and relaxing. We had a bungalow with sea views and ate breakfast every day while looking at Ocam Ocam beach. The bungalow was simple but comfortable. I really have to stress the excellent attention by all housekeepers, notably Ate Alma and Kuya Mar Mar who were very comforting and helped us out with everything we needed. Thanks a lot for the pleasant experience!
The bungalow was basic and a bit smelly.
Everything! The room, location, nature and ambiance. If you want to stay in a peaceful, cozy and relaxing place, this is the perfect place for you. Food is also good.
The pool is great but needs some improvement and maintenance.
fascinating location, humble staff, and the way property is taken care of. Presence of Marcel is like an icing on cake with his practical suggestions to make the stay wonderful. The behaviour of staff and their willingness to go out of way to ensure guests feel welcomed is added dimension. Shoot out for Alma for everything she did for us including boat trip booking, taxi, cab, and what not.
Nothing to be not liked about. Suggestions for future guests- please remember this property is not a typical city hotel and has been set in a scenic setting with best of nature and sea views.
Martial and Tess have created this beautiful place with a series of jungle-set, boutique huts and hammocks. This is the first place I stayed in The Philippines that had a reliably flushing toilet, a full set of toiletries AND a toilet brush. The bed was comfortable and the wet room shower felt spacious compared to my other stays. I loved the tree top restaurant just next to the pool. The view over the trees and out to the ocean is such a beautiful start to the day with a good breakfast (included) and monkeys for free. You can hear the breaking waves from Ocam Ocam beach more than you'd expect. The whole space has had attention to detail to make it beautiful. The walk to the beach is an easy 10-15 minutes but I spent more time than I expected in hammocks! All the food I tried off the menu was tasty, made fresh and came in a decent portion. Martial and Tess helped me organise various excursions and my airport taxi when I asked. My transport to Ocam Ocam Azur Inn was a motorbike taxi. If happy to chill and spend time at the Inn and beach, you probably don't need transport but if you want to explore locally then some kind of transport is a good idea. In summary this place is incredibly peaceful. Artistic but embedded in nature. Boutique but not fluffy. I stayed for 3 nights and wished I had more.
After 3 weeks in the Philippines, I was used to cold showers so this didn't affect me but I can see that some people would be challenged by this.
Tess and Marshall were the most wonderful, welcoming hosts! I feel like I’ve made two new friends across the oceans. The property is gorgeous, so peaceful with beautiful views and I cannot speak highly enough of my stay there. Also - JB was fantastic. I felt like it was a home away from home and I can’t wait to go back. the boat trip to Black Island was also great and I took the kayak out one afternoon and it was amazing kayaking around the island stopping off at different secluded beaches.
We had a warm welcome from Tess and Marcel, the owners, also their pet dog, Coco. We loved the small and personal space - just five bungalows, a small pool and restaurant that was open from breakfast till late for food and drinks. We loved our balcony as it had views of the sea to the front and side and the most gorgeous sunsets - a bit different every night. You could watch them from the restaurant too. We enjoyed watching the monkeys travelling through the trees. There were beautiful flowers on the walkways.
The bathroom was rustic - a small wet room with just cool water but really that wasn't a problem as we needed the refreshment in the heat. There were a lot of steps as it's on a hill, but that wasn't a problem for us. The staff needed training on how to make cocktails! But it was quite early days in their opening so I'm sure they'll get that in time.
Everything. It’s a little corner of paradise away from the noise and chaos of Coron Town. The bungalows are very comfortable and the place is just beautiful. Martiel and Thess made us feel at home all the time and it was our best stay in the Philippines. It’s the perfect place to relax and wind down.
Nothing
Amazing, authentic, and personable hosts. Tess and Marshall truly made us feel like family. They are getting things in gear at Azur Inn after COVID setbacks, but they know how to make their guests feel welcome and special. Incredible panoramic 360 views at the restaurant. Attentive staff ready to serve food and drink at your whim. Heated pool worth a good swim with a drink. DEFINITELY order the BBQ pulled pork sandwich while staying… you won’t regret it!! Things to know: - it’s a good 15 min walk to Ocam Beach down the hill. Not bad at all, just be ready for the hike back up. Alternate option is to rent a scooter to make things quick and easy. 20 pesos entry fee to beach (like 50 cents). - no hot water (yet) for showers. not a big deal in the heat of day - not a lot of restaurants/shops nearby… definitely remote area. - credit card IS accepted at hotel for related purchases. Hotel shuttle is paid directly to driver and cash only (exact cash makes things much easier)
Incredible views of ocam ocam. Beautiful jungle with wildlife. We saw monkeys three times, ones at our balcony. We also saw hornbills. friendly staff and cute pool. Owners are very helpful and knowledgeable about the area
We didn't mind but it's a bit of an adventure as well. The drive to the hotel isnt the easiest by scooter and being in the jungle there also I wildlife on the property. Great if you love it like us but don't book of you're afraid of animals. Not that we needed it as we were there during very hot days, but no hot shower
Great location, friendly staff, Martial & Tess were amazing & helpful, would recommend to stay here 100%
Amazing 360 views from the pool and magic sunsets. Great place to watch monkeys and Hornbills and it’s only 10 min walk from the beach.
Fantastic location for a chilled stay with flora and fauna in abundance. Hosts Marcel and Tess do their utmost to make your stay a memorable one offering guided treks and arranging optional tours. Food well prepared, tasty and simple with a daily seafood option.
Just a suggestion but the food menu could be more extensive and the dishes to include veg or salad or offered as a side dish.
Stunning mountain and sea views Friendly owners Relaxing and peaceful Staff are helpful Monkeys in the foreground Cute villas, pool and bar area
Location is very secluded, not necessarily a downside for lodgers but important to know. there isnt really anything to do in the area. Important so the right guest arrive.* Lack of communication/information upon arrival provided by staff No door key provided Hand towels would be nice
The accomodation is so nice, the nature, the view, the nearby beach, all perfect. There’s a restaurant inside the complex, the staff were all very nice and the bungalows had just everything needed for a comfortable stay. On top of that the owner is a great guy, he helped us tremendously with the logistics of arrival and departure and aleays ready to answer our questions. Interesting guy with a laid back attitude and you can really feel it in the atmosphere around. 10/10 recommended
This place is an absolute gem. Quiet, peaceful, surrounded by nature, clean, right next to a beautiful beach and the staff are very friendly and helpful.
Nothing to dislike about this place!
Outstanding personal touch and very friendly owners
Martial and Tess have built an amazing refuge sitting right on top of the beautiful OcamOcam beach (only a short walk from the hotel). They have hospitality in their DNA and will help with whatever issue you might face. I came there to have a few relaxing days in good company with interesting conversations - and I was not disappointed! The restaurant with a stunning 360 degree view is never shy of a beautiful sunset, offers great food and gives you a feeling that you are sitting right in nature (even with a few monkeys in safe distance). The huts are simple but provide you with enough comfort. You are not going to be there much anyway. Would not hesitate a second to stay at the OcamOcam Azur Inn again!
Its very quiet and peacefull. Very friendly people. Amazing nature. The pool is very nice.
