James Homestay

Near at the port and accommodating owner.

The towels are a bit short.

Très bon séjour dans cet hôtel ! Le personnel est vraiment très sympathique et accueillant, ce qui rend l’ambiance particulièrement agréable. On s’y sent presque comme en famille grâce à la convivialité des échanges. La chambre était tout à fait convenable, propre et confortable. Une belle expérience globale, l’emplacement est très bien, je recommande.

Excellent rapport qualité/prix, bon emplacement central entre Siquijor et San Juan. Les hôtes sont adorables

La salle de bain pas super propre et le bruit des chiens et coqs à toute heure du jour ou de la nuit

Bien placé entre san juan et siquijor,lits confortables, grande chambre, petit déjeuner copieux proposés.location de scooter.

Приємний персонал та розташування недалеко від міста

В туалеті проблема з дверима якщо їх зачинити то потрібно відкривати ключем з зовні. Світло у кімнаті не недостатньо, немає зручностей куди покласти речі (але є попільничка та стіл на вулиці), кімната стара (добре що не було мурах). Атмосфера не сприяє відпочинку.

Possibilité de louer un scooter, personnel agréable et nous a aidé à réserver un Tuktuk, chambre propre et il y a de l’eau chaude ! Possibilité de faire la laundry (210 pesos pour 1 à 3kg)

Très bruyant (coqs, chiens, AC, etc) Un petit coup de rafraîchissement ne ferait pas de mal

Amabilidad de los caseros. Calidad precio bastante bien

Entraba mucha claridad en la habitación por la mañana, wifi no llegaba bien

El trato familiar. Buena ubicacion. Habitación amplia

Location is easy to find, close to downtown and just 5-minute drive to San Juan. Host/staff is accomodating and helpful. Water dispenser is a plus and the parking. Aside from AC unit there is also fan. Good value for money. Wifi is working well during our stay which is essential. Definitely booking this place again next time.

Room is dusty, toilet needs futher cleaning. They might consider updating the AC with a split-type so it is quiet. They might also consider replacing their window with sliding glass panel instead of jalousy to maintain better room temperature when the AC is on.

Gastvrij ontvangst, fijn bed en een mooie omgeving.

Veel omgevingsgeluid, de hygiëne van de badkamer kan beter.

Неплохой номер и низкая цена

Плохой WiFi И не удобное расположение

Chambre spacieuse et bien équipée, personnel sympathique

La chambre n’était pas très propre à notre arrivée

It was affordable and the hosts were very accommodating. They also have solar power so you won’t feel that there’s power interruption. WiFi is also reliable and there’s free water.

It’s near the port but quite far from San Juan which is our fault because we didn’t double-check ahead of time. But given the price it’s worth it.

We had a big room booked that was meant for 8 people but only had 2 of us. The price was great and booked on the day. Location is quite good as its within 15 mins from the port via motorcycle. The owner was very nice and accommodating.

Toilet could be better. No hang points for towel and toiletries. Should be a matt inside.

Quiet place

Walking distance to anything was a little to far

Me and my friend stayed here and i could definitely say that the place was great and comfortable.

Location, Owners and staff!

Only the part that the bathroom has some little water for the shower and faucet

The owner and staff were very accommodating.

None

Very nice garden staff was very nice. Location was great and rooms were comfy too.

Good value for money

A lot of noise outside because of the chickens and dogs. Wake up every night.

I really like how this place is close to San Juan. Since it was my first time in Siquijor I really didnt know where to to stay but this is really an answered prayer as it was just a perfect location for my 4 day stay. The host is also exceptional. I was able to rent their car for days with a reasonable price, there are times I had even requested my food to be prepared since I had no time going out. It was a hassle free experience staying here!

Bed comfortable , AC good

Shower pressure was bad, very basic facilities , need moped to to get to food ( we only stayed night before needing ferry/ port as was close ( etc

Bed & pillows were okay Wifi good

We didn’t have a great stay at James. We have been 4 weeks in Philippines, used to guesthouse filipino Style. But usually as we book , we know the state of the place , thanks to the picture and information from the owner ; so even if simple, not an issue. Here the problem : it looked nothing alike the picture. The owner took care of taking old « okay » picture ; no picture of the bathroom In the end : - Really bad smell of humidity/urine ( they should know since all windows were open when we arrive ) - Room is in a really bad shapes : painting clogging everywhere ; curtains broken , holes in the wall. - Bathroom : Not cleaned and basically full of dirts - hairs & sand, tiny , 1sqmeter, not hot water and not mentioned - Not friendly staff. They propose to clean the bathroom when they come back a 10pm but not even a sorry, an apologize , a smile. - AC old school and super noisy - Window gives on old trashes behind the house ( old toilets for instance ) And the worst quality/price we had in all Philippines. We stayed one night while booking for two , and left before the end of the stay.

Great place. Rooms situated in a nice garden. Very quiet and peaceful. Clean, proper wifi connection, friendly and helpfull host

No real food options in walking distance

Excellent staff with all the information needed 👌

Place is near port and the owner, Cherry is really nice with our travel arrangments. She was so kind to assist us with planning our trip. Thank you so much for the warm welcome.

The family were so lovely, always happy to have a chat and advised us on the best things to do in the area and also recommended us some cafes. The room was clean and had everything we needed for a very good price.

No complaints, we really enjoyed our stay.

like home from home relax

If you’re looking for an affordable yet comfortable place to stay, this is the one for you. The room is clean and well-maintained, and the owner and her assistant are incredibly accommodating and friendly. Most importantly, the place is safe and quiet, ensuring a peaceful stay.

WiFi worked well Can rent motorbikes Big room We had a fan room and they gave us 2 fans Fan room also has own bathroom but have to walk to it Family are lovely Little dogs were great

Fan room was really stuffy - because we used the fans to cool us down we did catch a flu so would recommend the aircon rooms Fan room is right next to kitchen and lounge People were cooking from 5:30/6am everyday we stayed - we would suggest not allowing cooking so early No food or restaurants nearby so rent a bike or get a tuk tuk - breakfast is available at a fee

Staff were very nice and welcoming and were happy to hold our luggage after checkout as we had a late ferry to catch. Budget room was basic but certainly can't complain with the price.

Budget room a/c struggled to cool the room during the day and the bathroom had quite a few ants in it.

Nice owner

Little old, beat . Seems expensive for what you get.

Room very clean. Hosts were so kind and helpful organising motorbikes for us. We could make hot drinks from a dispensing machine which was great. Garden round accomodation was so pretty with lots of flowers.

All good

The staff is very friendly and interested in you. That is nice! and it’s very close to the port yo catch the ferry.

Haha we ended up having a room without AC, that was terrible. We were unlucky to get the room with AC, otherwise our stay would be way better. But due to holy week, there weren’t any options left.

Very convenient for our purpose

One of the rooms I reserved had a bad smell and drainage in the bathroom was sluggish

Place was very nice and clean and location was good. Really good value for money. Didn’t have AC in the room.

The owners were very accommodating. They made our stay much more comfortable than we expected.

The host is a very nice person both cherry and her husband are really 😎 cool

Nothing really all good

Staff is so kind and helpful. Beds are comfortable and the place is not noisy. Perfect place for resting. Puppies are so sweet and don't disturb your staying.

We stayed there 5 days and we had to ask for toilet paper and a broom for cleaning the room, because they didn't do it. It would be nice if they were pending on these things.

Staff is cool. People were welcoming.

Unfortunately we had bed bugs and the bathroom was not clean. Room is very hot and in the middle of the house.

Close enough to the ferry but also secluded and off the main road so quite peaceful. Bed was very nice, bathroom was adequate and A/C worked fine. Check-in and check-out was extremely simple and quick, friendly staff running the show.

It had a bed, a roof, a bathroom and a door

Everything else

What I liked about it was the location was easy access from port or tourist spots. Other things was that the staffs are very kind. I was there with my whole family and they find the place very relaxing and comfortable. And also you can rent scooter which they gave discounts if you stay there which is a good thing if your on budget.

Nothing at all. Our stay there was awesome

Very affordable and the host was very accommodating

The place is close to the town center. Internet Service is good.

Friendly staff, nice and quiet area, clean modern room with aircon, highly recommend !

Good clean room, good a/c, comfy beds and good facilities (including water dispenser)

Owners are kinda sensitive to kids.They should have informed us ahead of that rule.But still good value for money..Although 20min drive from attractions,but motorcycle is very convenient as mode of transportation

Very pretty grounds. Air conditioning and hot shower.

air con a little loud but not a dealbreaker!

Amenities are complete and clean; and most of all the owners are very welcoming and kind. They made sure to pick us up as we arrive and we are free to use their dining. Thank you so much!

Our Siquijor trip is a blast and part of it is having a lovely accommodation (feels like home). The staff and owner are very helpful and show real hospitality to us. If you're a dog person, you'll have a chance to meet their furbaby Hersey <3. They even accommodate our request for another stay due to the boat trip cancellation (Going back to DGT). We'll be going back to Siquijor since we haven't done exploring it and will not hesitate to stay again with James Homestay. The location is very near to the port area which makes it easy to move around.

The location was a signal dead zone but they have strong internet connections to compensate, we just have a minor issue encountered when we try doing transactions that need mobile signals like receiving OTP which can be done when you go to the area w/ signal.

lovely staff and really helpful

really hot if you didn’t get the air con

Hosts were great, cheap motorbike rental, quite good location in terms of the whole island and easy to get to from the port, free drinking water

The usual in cheap stays; ants, towel was not great, only cold and cool water in the shower
