Island Vibes Hostel

Rigtig god central placering. Vi boede på det private værelse hvilket var fint til prisen. Der var et køkken og et lille område udenfor til fri afbenytten. Vi bookede canyoning tur gennem hotellet hvilket var en stor succes.

Særligt det ene badeværelse var meget slidt og ikke specielt rent. Toiletbrættet var knækket og derfor ubehageligt at bruge. Lidt mindre valuta for pengene end vi har været vant til på Filippinerne

Simple hostel but quiet and in good location. 10 mins walk to the snorkeling area. They have this cat named Ninja that added to the fun in our stay. Price is reasonable and you get what you pay for.

The shower head and bidet should be fixed especially in bathroom that’s in the middle of the rooms. They provide free coffee and creamer but adding sugar as well would be helpful A microwave would also be nice to have so guests can heat up their food. Nothing major concern tbh. It’s more on just improving their facilities to be better

L'emplacement

Pas très confortable, pas une vraie auberge, pas d'ambiance, pas vraiment de staff

the bedroom was of decent size. there were only 2 bunk beds in the room so we had space and it was not crowded. the beach was just a 5 minute walk from the hostel. location was great.

the bathroom could do a renovation or at least a deep clean. toilet bowl has seen better days. the faucet was RUSTED. the sink drain was dirty. it was full of grime. there was a condom left in one of the lockers so obviously it was not cleaned/ checked after check out.

Home away from home! Great place, staff very lovely, and amazing to have a kitchen. Really great value, and on a lovely peaceful side road, but right in the centre of town.

The location is great

The blanket was tiny and from towel fabric. The pillows were really uneven and it was kind of impossible to sleep. The showers were in bad condition, and weren’t cleaned during our stay (no staff there for the whole weekend). The AC is freezing and if you turn it off there is no air in the room. Also, the staff was pretty unresponsive. Maybe it was beacuse it was a weekend, but the hostel has such good reviews I was expecting something completely different.

提供廚房使用，交誼廳很舒適。 旅館位置在安靜的地方，確離熱鬧的地方很近。

雙人床太小，兩位標準身材成年人躺在一起幾乎緊貼無縫隙。 房間插座僅一組，不夠使用。 房間小可以理解，但或許床架可以再增高一點，讓行李箱可以放置床底，畢竟空間很侷限。

Cosy hostel and very good location, right next to the main tourist area. Good to have a kitchen however not many utensils but we were provided more when asked.

The hostel itself is very small, with not a big common space, but it made it easy to socialize.

• Perfect placement • Clean bathrooms • Quick assistance • Friendly Management

I really like that it was one of the few options that offered a complete kitchen, good location and friendly staff

All good

lovely staff they even have puppies! can organise canyoneering tours from there ( highly recommend) ( avoid oslob whale shark tour!!!) good air conditioning, facilities were fine although only two bathrooms for everyone to share - great location though - good for solo travelling

eh it was fine and good price- may need to wait for bathroom use but great overall

Always a good stay here. My second time at this hostel. Good location, comfortable and quiet area, comfortable beds and with A/C. Free use of kitchen area and fridge. Free drinking water and unlimited coffee! And good wifi! 💯

When other guests don't know how to clean after themselves. lol. But nothing against this property.

Very good location. Room was clean, spacious and the bed was very comfortable. Sharing bathroom was very clean and everything was functional. Owners were very friendly and spoke good english.

No complaints whatsoever 😊

Very nice vibe, great location and such nice people. Also a bonus with the kitchen.

The bed felt a bit unstable and the bathrooms were often wet due to showering/bidet and had a few spiders.

Great hostel, very clean. Very small which led to it being very homely and quiet! Very comfortable beds and would highly recommend

The room is a little on the smaller size but not a major issue

This is my new fave hostel in Moalboal. It's close to Panagsama center but the area is quiet. I was working on my first night here (1AM-10AM) and they have very fast and stable internet connection and comfortable chairs and tables at their balcony. Their beds are spacious and comfortable and dorm rooms are not so crowded (4 pax each dorm). Common areas are clean and tidy as well as comfort rooms.

Only downside is there are mosquitoes in open areas and sometimes inside the rooms (only a few) but it is understandable tho. This is a common this for most hostels in Moalboal.

Staff was very nice and friendly. Excellent WiFi connection. There's even a well equipped kitchen, a rare sight in southeast Asia.

A tad far from the beach, but still only a few minutes walk (and besides, all the positives more than make up for it).

Amazing location (close to the main street, beach, and restaurants). Spacious dorms and really nice and tidy common spaces. The bathrooms were kept clean.

The beds are quite wobbly and it was a bit noisy during the night with music, but that’s the case for most of the accommodations near the main street.

clean, quiet,, great location, the owner was very helpful answered all my questions about transportation, where to go, etc,

the rainy weather

quiet place even it's near the main road. accessible. Clean . Fast internet. all basic needs is there. Staffs are approachable and very friendly.

Nice hostel in walking distance to everything in Moalboal. Nice that there was a fridge. The canyoneering tour organized through the hostel was so good!

Great staff, always willing to help. They respond very quickly either on booking or WhatsApp. Not a big hostel, but still very easy to socialize if you travel solo. Great location, very close to the beach where you can watch sardines and turtles. Cozy atmosphere which makes you feel like at home. We also had a free dinner on Thursday which was amazing! The owners cooked it themselves for us so we could eat it with the whole family and then spend some time together. Really recommend, if I ever go to Moalboal again, I’ll definitely stay there

Lovely staff, a "new friends" vibe in the Hostel Location is really nice, quiet but 5 minutes from the beach and a few meters from main road Free coffee and water is always a plus, space to park a scooter if you rent one

The room is cozy. Ate staff is friendly. Complete kitchen utensils for dining and cooking. Bathroom is clean.

Island girl bed and breakfast has already free breakfast at the same price.

Good Wi-Fi and great location for tourist area and main strip of moalboal. There was a beer pong table outside so looked like a fun hostel during high season when full.

There are 2 dorm rooms and 1 private room. We booked the private room and at check in we were shown to one of the dorms. When we questioned this it became apparent that the staff had given our private room to another guest. Turns out this wasn’t a guest of island vibes hostel and they had booked to stay in the hostel next door. The host apologiesed for the confusion and After a quick turnaround we were then given the keys to our private room. This was funny more than anything else! Ants everywhere in the room and even on the bed. Room was grubby There are 2 shared bathrooms which are also grubby and one bathroom didn’t have a toilet seat during our stay. There are pets (birds) that are kept in the communal space which leads to all rooms. The birds do not shut up all night which kept waking us up.

I loved the staff. Very helpful and good conversation.

Very good hostel. They have 2 dorms and 1 private room. The private room even has a desk and an office chair, good to work. Everything was clean. The staff was very kind. The wifi is very good. 5 minutes walking from the beach.

Nothing bad to say.

I had a fantastic stay in this hostel for five days. The cozy atmosphere made it feel like home. The entire place was exceptionally clean, and the beds were super comfortable. Also there is aircon in the rooms. Thanks to April and Christine, they were friendly and helpful. The hostel also has a kitchen which is a big plus for backpackers, and the free drinkable water and coffee were much appreciated. I highly recommend this hostel for anyone who wants to stay in Moalboal.

Great location, great air con - its a bed in a small room, and it’s exactly as described - perfect for a short stay in Moalboal

Room is a little small but was great value and works well for a short stay!

I like how practical the place is… you have everything you need: kitchen, hot shower, private room with work space… April may, the staff, is simply lovely… (and yes that is her full name) thanks so much for the delightful stay. Cheers

I recently stayed at the Island Vibes Hostel, and it was an experience that exceeded my expectations. From the moment I arrived, I was impressed by the friendly and welcoming atmosphere. The staff went above and beyond to make sure every guest felt at home, providing helpful tips about the local area and ensuring everyone was comfortable. The hostel is situated in a prime location, just a short walk from major attractions and public transport. This made it incredibly convenient to explore the city without the hassle of long commutes. There are also plenty of cafes, restaurants, and shops nearby, which added to the overall convenience. The dormitory rooms are clean, comfortable, and secure. Each bed comes with its own reading light, power outlet, and locker, providing a good balance of privacy and security. The mattresses were surprisingly comfortable, and the bedding was clean and fresh. The hostel also offers private rooms for those who prefer more privacy. The bathrooms are modern and kept impeccably clean. There are enough showers and toilets to accommodate guests without long waits, and the hot water is reliable. The hostel also provides free toiletries, which is a nice touch. The staff at the hostel truly make the experience exceptional. They are friendly, approachable, and always willing to help. Whether you need directions, restaurant recommendations, or help booking tours, they are more than happy to assist.

none so far. It's perfect!

Internet and service

Great location, close to restaurants and bars but very quiet at night. Great aircon and clean rooms. The staff were friendly and accommodating. I would book here again when I return to Moalboal.
