They have little store on site with good prices , little swimming pool to cool off and serve food.
Omelette with cheese, ham and toast is outstanding.
Price is really affordable and our house was clean.

We had a one cockroach per night ratio. Air conditioning upstairs broke through the night because the plug socket sparked whenever you tried to restart it. Also, we saw a cockroach on each night that we stayed. We are aware it was an outdoor place, but still did not make for the most comfortable experience.

Reviewed Apr 14, 2026We loved the location and the layout of the property. It was so worth staying closer to oslob for a shorter commute. Full breakfast lunch and dinner menu with reasonable prices kept us there most days with a nice variety of vegetarian/vegan meals!! The staff were so helpful and welcoming, getting us involved in local activities, basketball with the locals, lent us their fishing rod and snorkeling gear, organised a masseuse to come to our room and a private driver for tours. Along with arriving and departing assistance with the local coaches to and from thw city. Highly recommend!
The only thing we struggled with, on the last night we must have had a big blizzard or something in our walls causing a bit of noisy drama.

We were right on the beach which was incredible we saw turtles (common) and even a whale shark out the front (rare apparently!) along with the little local fishing boats. Room was cool with the aircon. The food was incredible omelettes and pancakes were our favourite breakfast and cold beers and chicken curry or fried chicken for dinner YUM!!

Reviewed Oct 31, 2025All in all, I was really happy with my stay at BBH. In fact, if I could have, I would have been happy to have stayed longer. It was cool to have my own little cabana and I found the bed to be really comfortable, it was totally quiet at night and everything worked including the air con. There was a great ocean view from the dining area and the selection of food was quite good. The staff were really friendly and helpful. It was also close enough to the waterfalls that I wanted to visit. The small nearby town, which I didn't end up visiting, was only 2 kms away, but since BBH had a decent menu I didn't need to go anywhere else for food. I'd love it if hamburgers could be added to the menu :-).
These are only small things, but I'd just like to make one main suggestion and that would be to play music that's more soothing instead of stuff like Metallica and Tool. I actually like some hard rock (and I'm 63 yrs old), but I would have preferred to hear some nice mellow music that matched the ambience of the calming ocean. Just a thought. If it was my place, I'd ask the customers what kind of music they wanted to hear. Also, I'm never a fan of the types of open showers that make the entire bathroom floor wet, but I realize that it's the norm here and so not a big deal., but an enclosed shower is always a bonus. If it weren't for these small things I would have given this place a 10 and if I'm in the area in the future, I'd be happy to stay there again.

Reviewed Jul 7, 2025I really enjoyed how peaceful and quiet it is here — perfect for relaxing and unwinding away from the busy city. You can easily rent a motorcycle (just make sure to bring your passport) to explore nearby spots at an affordable price. I absolutely loved their food, especially the chicken curry — I could eat that every day and never get tired of it! They offer American, Continental, and Filipino breakfast options, but if you want curry in the morning, you can totally order that too, no problem.
The view isn’t exactly five-star since there are some houses nearby, but you get an entire mountain on the other side of the road, and the sunset is breathtaking. The sunrise is amazing too — it reflects beautifully on the clear sea waters each morning!
The only thing I didn’t like was that the sea floor in front of the resort could use a bit more cleaning. It’s such a shame to spot beautiful fish and then notice an old pair of denim shorts, beer or wine bottles, or random snack wrappers settled on the seafloor. It’s not a huge issue, but clearing this up would definitely make the view even better.
That said, this small drawback won’t stop me from coming back — I’ll still be visiting again to relax and unwind after a stressful month at work. Also, the rooms have improved a lot — kudos to the team!

Reviewed May 15, 2025Unfortunately, I did not read the news and came in during the Phillipines general election. After reaching Cebu South Bus Terminal - CSBT- (as instructed by the owner in the booking.com chat), I encountered a massive queue which got cut off midway even before I bought the tickets. As it takes about 4 hrs to reach the accomodation by bus, I was in contact with the host. Note: She explained to me patiently on how to go CSBT. Given the fact that I might reach quite late, she also provided me her sister, Lisa (the staff at the accoms) number. Lisa was extremely kind and patient to me as well. She provided me a private driver as it was almost 5pm at CSBT. A second unfortunate thing happened to me, the private driver was also stuck in traffic as everyone in the city was going back to the province to vote. As such, I had to wait another 2 hours but Lisa was in constant communication with me with regular updates on the private driver's whereabout. After taking a total of 9 hours to arrive the accomodation at 10pm, Lisa cooked for me a curry chicken for me. Such service is remarkable by both sisters. Lisa also provided me a motorbike driver to visit Osmena peak, kawasan canoyneering and maninit hot spring. As I only stayed one day, she offered me to extend my stay for a few hours (with a small fee) as it could be rush. Lisa also provided me with a piece of paper on the attractions nearby.

Reviewed Apr 15, 2025We stayed for one night and it was okay—just what you'd expect from a semi-hut by the beach. The atmosphere was laid-back, and the location offered a nice seaside feel. They had good signal, which was a plus, and they also serve food, which adds to the convenience. A decent spot for a quick beachside stay.
We appreciated the stay overall, but I do want to be honest about the parking situation. Before our arrival, I specifically confirmed that we had a car, and was reassured that parking would be available. However, when we got there, the designated parking area could only fit two cars and was already full. We ended up having to park elsewhere and pay for public parking, which was unexpected and a bit inconvenient. It would be helpful if the listing clarified this in advance or if alternative parking arrangements were suggested.
There was also a water outage during our visit—we had to use a bucket with brackish water. If you're particular about bathrooms, this might not be ideal.

Reviewed Jan 18, 2025Close to Kawasan Falls, much closer than from Moalboal. We booked canyoneering through them and it was a blast and cheaper than what we found online.
This is a small, cute place with bungalow-type accommodations located right on the water. Each room has its own bathroom and shower and air conditioning unit. There is a nice common area where meals are served that overlooks the water and has a nice ambiance. The owners/workers were very nice and accommodating to our very large party, even allowing us to bring on-site our own food and cooking it for us sometimes. We ordered food for a couple meals. Dinners were quite good, especially the tinola and pancit, but warning - they don’t use traditional longuanisa for breakfast - rather, they are like longuinisa-flavored hotdogs, which was a disappointment. The young staff-member, can’t remember her name, was very sweet and worked really hard, taking orders, cooking, getting drinks, etc. I did like waking up/going to bed to the view of the water, which made a lot of the inconveniences worth it.
Bathroom/shower facilities really varied from room to room. While each had some kind of water-heating device, we found that some worked and some didn’t and water pressure went from bad to worse depending on time of day. Our particular room had a shower head that didn’t stay on its holder so it was essentially handheld. There was really nothing to do in the area or even on the resort - even the nearest town didn’t have much, which was not great when having teenagers in tow. There were 2 kayaks for rent for 200 pesos/hr, there was a pool table that has seen better days that got a lot of use and mopeds/motorcycles for rent. Beach was really rocky and not swimmable and surrounding area wasn’t really amenable to swimming anyway. There was a small, above-ground pool the kids used twice. I asked about the 2nd pool featured in the website pictures and was told it was broken. I wouldn’t take kids here honestly. I would say if you wanted to go somewhere very quiet to watch the ocean and read a book, this place would serve your purpose. It was still quite a drive to Oslob and Moalboal so wasn’t as convenient as I thought it would have been to these places for our activities.
