I don’t know anyone that couldn’t love this place! This was our last accommodation on our Philippines backpacking trip – a little treat to finish. We were recommended to visit Siquijor by a local we had met in Puerto Princesa, so we thought, why not! Not only did this become my favourite island, but I believe a huge part of this is because of Infinity Heights. We were super lucky to visit during a quiet period (start of the rainy season), but we’ve created memories here we will never forget. Firstly, we were beautifully greeted by the front of house staff, whom, I promise, will already make your stay so perfect as they made sure our guest experience was the highest it can be. Nothing was ever too big of an ask. If you love dogs, there are a couple of onsite adorable dogs who are very well behaved and respect your space, but also love a cuddle! The room (we stayed in room 10), was outstanding. It was clean, lovely, modern but simple décor, a big balcony with views that honestly took my breath away. For me, it felt like a place I could easily call my home. Speaking of home, the owners live onsite and came over to chat with us. Gary and Christy are the sweetest people, it’s very clear they take a lot of pride in their home and their business. As owners, I feel they tick every box. We’ve felt so cared about and wanted here, and we’ve not come spending money. It’s just been about getting to know each other. They’ve put a lot of hard work into the resort, and you can see through their staff how happy and attentive everyone is who works here. They gave us local insight knowledge and even treated us to a night of music! Christy performed some well-known songs, whilst Gary, my partner and two other guests assisted in the mini band – it’s a night that can’t be explained, as it was an unexpected taste of paradise. We felt 100% happy, content and relaxed, it’s an evening we will always cherish. We stayed after the music finished and continued chatting to Christy and Gary about everyday things and cultural differences. We wanted them to know how good their staff was as well, and they just seemed so heart warmingly proud of the business they have created. The last thing to mention is the views and the pool. JUST WOW. I wish we had more time here (or just lived here). We spent a whole evening in the pool watching the sun set over views that you can’t beat. It was emotionally beautiful, and we both miss this place so much!

-The direct access to the sea makes this hotel perfect, the hotel proved canoes, and google to enjoy swimming. Note: as the hotel is located on a marine reserve you’ll be asked to pay a one time environmental fee of 50P per pax.
-The staff is super friendly and we had a great stay.
-As all first floor rooms were booked we had the family room located on the second floors. The room was spacious and super clean. It was a bit pricy though. The first floor rooms have the outdoor patio to enjoy the evening on the outdoor sofa, but the family room’s view was so beautiful.
-The hotel offers restaurant, we had dinner and the food was good and tasty.
The wifi wasn’t that great, but when we left they were installing a better internet system. Next time we will enjoy a good wifi 😉
Overall, this is a great hotel to relax and recharge your energy.
Would we recommend it: 100% yes.
Why? For the location, the quietness, and the friendly staffs.
La-Familia Guest House is a hidden gem! 🌟 Nestled in beautiful Siquijor, it’s just a stone's throw from a stunning white sand beach. The rooms are spotless and cozy, making it a perfect retreat. 🏖️ The service is top-notch; the staff is friendly and always ready to help, ensuring a delightful stay. With great facilities and an inviting atmosphere, this place truly feels like home away from home. The only downside? You might never want to leave! 😄 Overall, I’d give it 4 stars for an amazing experience!

LOVED our stay at Coco Grove. We are not fans of large resorts, but this is an exception. Even though our first 2 nights the resort was full we did not feel like there were lots of people. The property is huge, villas and rooms are spread out amidst lush tropical foliage, there are 3 different & good sized pools in different areas. 3 food outlets. A decently equipped gym. A nice gift shop that doesn’t mark up the items exorbitantly—we found it very reasonable. Very well planned resort. Staff are just lovely—very sweet, attentive and helpful. Everyone. From drivers, front office, restaurants, spa, cleaners, gardeners, guards, lifeguards—all really just genuinely nice. I greatly appreciate how the staff are kind to animals too. Went to the Spa 3 nights for massage—ask for joy—I had one of the best aromatherapy massages from her (2 nights—my first and last; the masseuse I had the other night was mediocre). And if you prefer hard massages ask for a Swedish deep tissue massage from Fretzel, she was excellent according to my partner. We stayed in an ocean villa. Very spacious with a good sized bathroom with separate shower and bath tub too. There are also shelves and closets to hang clothes. Rooms are cleaned daily which we appreciate (if you don’t want yours cleaned daily let them know when you check in). It was wonderful having the beach & sea “at your doorstep.” Our stay was very peaceful. The Sanctuary Villas are at the opposite end, near the spa and in a bit more private area, we’ll probably request that for next time. there isn’t anything wrong with the Ocean villas (which are near the dive center) it’s just there was more foot traffic in the area than in the sanctuary. Internet is good in some areas and weak to none in others. Food is ok, portions are good. Decent selection for breakfast. For vegetarians the vegetable curry in Salanandas is good, Thai inspired better than at the Beach Bar. The fries and the stir fried vermicelli noodles w vegetables at the Beach Bar were better than the fries and the vegetarian pancit (these noodles were thicker) at Salamandas. Don’t forget to say hi to Macky, their rescued Brazilian Parrot We’ll be back, coco Grove is on our list of favorite beach resorts!
First of all wonderful staff. Very nice, flexible and accommodating. An asset to the resort. We rented a the Luxe Villa. All cabins are very roomy and have ”outdoor” bathroom which is a nice touch. Restaurant is great and don't hesitate to ask for specials if you want. There is no beach. But a long stairs down the cliff. Going up requires some decent physical condition. Swimming pool is nice. Not too big but adequate for the size of the place. Our cabin could use a mattress update. Feels worn. The other advice I can give new guests is too fill in the pre-check-in form ahead of time. If not, you have to go through a rather tedious effort on your phone to check-in online. Some people may find this hard to do but staff insists it is ”the way”. Maybe the manager can review the process for older people not that privy with their mobiles if at all available
This is not a five star hotel but the overall experience was! Easy 5 minute motorbike ride form town. Prices were excellent as was the customer service. Room was clean and adequate, motorbike parking outside the room, sheets clean and water/aircon worked fine. There was breakfast the next morning and everyone we spoke with went out of their way to make sure we have a nice experience. Really great place to stay! My only complains were the Wi-Fi which was intermittent at best and the noisy dogs and chickens next door but that's most places in the Philippines. This will be my first choice if I visit the Island again.
ผผู้เข้าพักI had the best time staying at mad monkey siquijor. Nelson was amazing and took the time to know everyone's name and treated everyone like a true friend. Definitely give this man a raise! He was a whole vibe! The facilities are cleaned daily and all of the staff is helpful making recommendations or helping to arrange transport. Rooms were very spacious with hot water, AC, and privacy curtains. Highly recommend if you're on the island. Shout out to Pablo the accountant too he and all of the staff make this place so special! Thanks again for everything!
ผผู้เข้าพักWe stayed here for two weeks and really didn’t want to leave. Luki and Charlie were exceptional hosts . The new building was finished only 3 months before and it’s stunning. Swim up pool with spacious pleasant rooms . The pool pictured on their site had just been renovated and has a jacuzzi at one end. Charlie put the bubbles on every time we ventured in it. All the staff were so helpful and couldn’t do enough for us. Even taking my sandals for a repair. Luki ordered transport for us at competitive rates and showed us the best massages places to go to. Luki and Charlie invited us to Lukis birthday party, it was beautiful and great fun . So kind of them. Breakfast at an extra cost was good value and plentiful. The new chef made delicious meals mostly traditional Filipino - we ate many time during our stay. Please give this place a chance it’s been a working progress and now the end is in sight. I had the best time ever here .
