Low price even if it's In the city center so very convenient Lucy the owner is very helpfull, she tell you how to pay the tricicle, give you some advices She can also manage tours

Everything related with Lucy, the house’s proprietary. She gives you everything you need.

Sehr fruundliche und hilfsbereite Gastgeber. Sehr sauber und komfortabel. Grosse Küche in unserem Zimmer. Sogar die Handtücher wurden am 3. Tag gewechselt.

Alles perfekt. Prwis-Leistung top.

I am used to hospitality in the Philippines, but the way Lolong and his wife welcomed me is beyond words. The room is wonderful, the location excellent, and there is also a common area with a kitchen. When my room was cleaned, it was even tidier than before. Thank you so much for everything!

Tout était parfait, on aurait pas pu espérer mieux. Les hôtes sont adorables, il y a tout ce qu’il faut, c’est très bien placé, je recommande vivement ce logement !!

The owner is very helpful, she is always there to assist for everything we need, she arrange everything for us, airport to airport, land and island hoping tour, i am strongly recommend this place

Great location near some really tasty restaurants & cafes, Lucy & her husband were such friendly and helpful hosts - we even joined them one evening for a drink in the garden! You can tell that lots of consideration has gone into the room, making it super functional (shelves, hooks, light switches & plugs in all the right places) with lovely decoration. Having the kitchen with refillable water was also great. We’ll definitely stay here again when we come back!

Nothing!

Great accommodation for exploring siargao. We had a awesome stay there. Good working ac, everything was clean and tidy and we had our own kitchen with everything we needed. Hadn’t cooked for weeks so that was also nice. If you wanna go out there are plenty of options nearby to eat. Very good location. Lolong, the host, is super friendly and helpful with everything. Funny thing was that he used to live in Germany for many years which surprised us. Can recommend this place to everybody and would come there always again.

Thank you very much for this lovely stay! We highly appreciate the owners hospitality! The apartment is located perfectly in General Luna for a quiet stay! You have a big kitchen, common area, water dispensers, fridge etc. The room is nice! Beds are very comfortable. Highly recommend this apartment for your stay in Siragao!

The room is a little bit small, the aircon a little loud, the common area was always way too hot.

The room was great, very clean. Great to have use of the kitchen. Bed was also very comfortable. Lucy was the best host, helped us with anything we needed.

The best part of our stay at this accommodation was the staff’s attention. Lucy is incredible and made sure we were comfortable throughout our stay. She even helped us at the last minute to get to the airport on time, as we had missed the van. If it hadn’t been for her, we would have missed the flight.

Nothing

Breakfast was not included in the package. However, our host Lucy made us breakfast and was very accommodating to our needs. She went beyond our expectations. The location is near all places in General Luna: Restaurants, shops, groceries, transportation. This is the ideal place for solo travelers, couples, and families!

nothing bad to report. Everything was met to our expectations.

Lucy was very kind and helpful. The room itself was ok. The bed was comfortable. The place is clean, and the shared space was nice. The location was great and the WIFI worked well.

I found sleeping tricky with the air-conditioner and fan combination, the aircon was very loud and temperamental, and the fan was rotating by default so you couldn't angle it yourself, I found this a bit problematic for sleeping

Everything! Great AC and location. Lucy is so helpful. The burger and Thai places on the same street are fantastic

Couple of power cuts which got rectified on around an hour

Location - It's in General Luna, walkable distance to the bars, restaurants, and other shops in Tourism Road but far enough that it's peaceful at night (no loud noises). Also, it's a 5-min walk to the wet market of GL, easy to buy stocks when you opt to cook. Owner and Staff - Maam Lucy and Richelle are more than accommodating. They're always ready to help us pit with tours, airport transfers, even giving us advice to ensure we're not being overcharged by tuktuks. Room - Mattress and pillows were comfortable. This was a little surprising to me given the price. Place - it was very homey. Kitchen was fully equipped. What I also really liked is the abundance of power outlets. WIFI - Although not advertised, WIFI was great that I was able to work on my laptop. Value for Money - Undoubtedly got more than we paid for. Make sure to check with Maam Lucy if you want to do tours as she also offers the service.

Nothing, everything was great!

It’s located close to the beach and a lot of street venders. Not for from a touristic bridge were there are also a lot of venders and you can take a sunset picture. They have warm water and airco which is very pleasant in this warm weather. The room is spacious, there are fun quotes on the walls. Lucy is an excellent host, she also offerd us beach towels and some tours. The tours were also lovely. I recommend to book the tours at Lucy and ofcourse I also recommended to book your stay here.

There were a few mouse drops on the soap and on the counter, and we saw him running in the kitchen. We didn’t mind it a lot, since the kitchen is close to the outside, it’s logic it can get in the kitchen. I suggest to put some mousse traps.

Amazing staff, Lucy was incredible, she helped us book tours, rent snorkels and even encouraged us to try a surf lesson! Sometimes the power goes off in Siargao, you should expect that anywhere you stay. The location is great; local market is a 5 minute walk away and is great to buy meat and veg for cooking in the kitchen provided, the main tourist street is a walk or bike ride away. You have free water refill in the kitchen too. The shared living area is really nice to have too. You can rent scooters from JML or nearby too! I would also recommend eating at the Thai food place nearby! To find the accommodation on Google maps search for JML Homestay.

Perfect location. The host Lucy was so lovely and so helpful helping us to plan day tours. The accommodation was so clean and comfortable. Loved the kitchen space and the ice cold water filter. Best decision we made staying here.

Had to climb on a chair to switch the air conditioner on and off!

We could rent a scooter at the location.

Besides that we loved the island, this homestay was perfect, location very central, you feel like in home with a nice living room and helpful kitchen if you want to cook something, comfortable and spacious room. The lady has a very good English and is very friendly.

Ate Lucy was very accommodating. We had a pleasant stay. It has a kitchen where you can cook ur meals. The rooms and bathroom are clean. Complimentary toiletries and hair blower is a plus . We will definitely go back .

Good value for money in Siargao. You have a kitchen to cook if you want and the room is spacious. Lucy helped us in renting scooters and laundry.

The AC was not well functioning. Something to do with the electric issues on the island.

Accommodating staff

The place is like a home to us. Ate Lucy is very accommodating and very pleasant 😍 Its a wonderful vacation for us. 😊😘🥰

JML is an absolutely amazing property. Lucy is so so friendly and accommodating, providing answers to any questions. The location is perfect; a short walk into the main road of General Luna. The room is spacious, clean and well equipped.

N/A

The property and the owner are AMAZING! We were apprehensive about our booking as there aren’t many reviews online for JML but we were so relieved when we got to the property. The room was clean and comfortable and the common area had a fully fitted kitchen and water refilling station. What makes this property even better is Lucy who is super kind and helpful, always there recommending you places to visit and go to. She also helped us out big time when we couldn’t get up on our new Filipino SIM card. The property is about less than a ten minute walk to all the restaurants and cafés - ideal to be close but far enough away to have peace and quiet once you’re back in the room!

it was great

Lovely host. Really liked the location, easy to get around. Make sure to go to the port and book a private boat to the islands! Take fresh fish from the market as the wonderful women on the island cook it for you and it’s amazing!

When we were their our lock on the door didn’t work but it will have been fixed by now so not something to worry about. It is a lovely safe home stay!

I recently had the pleasure of staying at JML Home Stay during my trip to Siargao, and I have to say it was an amazing experience from start to finish. The location is perfect, just a stone's throw away from the beach and a short ride to all the popular surf spots on the island. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, offering everything you need for a perfect vacation. The amenities were all in great condition, and the hospitality of the staff was more than we could ask for. What makes this place truly exceptional is Ms. Lucy, who was the perfect host during our stay. She was incredibly warm and welcoming, and went above and beyond to ensure that we had a pleasant experience. From recommending the best restaurants in the area, to arranging for our transportation and tours, Ms. Lucy was incredibly helpful and accommodating throughout our stay. We truly appreciated her attention to detail, and her desire to make sure that our stay was as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. Overall, I would highly recommend JML Home Stay to anyone looking for a perfect vacation on one of the most beautiful islands in the world. The facility and the staff are determined to give you an experience that you will always remember.

the host was the best

nothing

The owner is approachable you wont hesitate to ask for assistance, clean and comfy if you are looking for a budget and affordable homestay in Siargao this would be a good place to stay.

Everything was great. The room was clean and comfortable, the shower was hot, the common area and the kitchen was very nice, and the best part was the host, Lucy, that was so nice and helpful with everything we needed.

Showerhead had some issues, nothing too serious.

fast internet hot shower, good place

very modern and exactly what we needed to have a great time on the island. I can’t thank the host enough, she helped us plan taxis, book motorbikes and she was always available for any questions

The owner is super kind and accommodated, helped me a lot. Room was clean as well, bedsheet was changed regularly.

Lucy is very friendly and helpful. Also her son Jean Paul.

Better internet. But as i know Lucy already ordered a new wifi modem.
