My favourite hostel in a 2 month trip. At first I was going to stay in Izla Soanna for 3 nights and ended up staying 9 nights an then coming back! The rooms are very clean and comfy, they have a fan per bed and nice mosquito nets. There is also the option of affordable private rooms. The location is just perfect, very near the nicest beach in panglao and at short distance from alona where all the touristy shops are. What I enjoyed the most was the people there, Anna, Flor and Sofia will make you always feel like home, they are extremely nice, helpful and funny. Definitely worth spending some time with them!

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Great location in a quiet area (apart from the occasional plane) with a few decent restaurants nearby and always tuktuks around for visiting other places. Amazing and cheap bakery downstairs, and they refilled our 6l bottle of water when needed. They also sorted out our laundry even though they don't offer it usually. Wifi was very good. We extended our stay.

    The family who run the property are so friendly and helpful - they absolutely made our stay in Mingche apartments. The grounds of the hotel are kept so well and it’s a lovely place to relax in. The location is around a 5/10 minute walk from the centre but feels really safe! Our room was basic but just what we needed when on a budget. Perfect place to stay in Alona beach.

    The room is spacious, modern and comfy. The facilities are quite new. There is a very good supermarket 5 minutes away and the beach is a relaxing 10-min stroll away. Staff were nice and helpful. The hotel was quiet amd peaceful - it didn't feel like a youth hostel- so it was a relaxing place to chill by the pool.

    Anna was very welcoming and friendly. Breakfast is a convenient and cheap choice. The beds are comfy in the dorm rooms with a personal fan. Renting a scooter through the hostel was easy. You definitely need to rent a scooter to be able to do things from here. We had the ease of a tricycle being sorted for us to the ferry.

    I believe this is one of the best hostels around the area. Price-quality ratio was really good. The pool and common area were chill and the size of the room was great. They organize tours but I didn't participate and they offer a family dinner (at least on Saturdays). The rooms were big enough. I stayed in the 8 bed female one and it was good. They have lockers for your things. Check in and check out process quick. It has a hotel part so this review only affects the hostel.

    Everything. Great location, a few minutes to the beach or restaurants and shops but in a quiet and safe place, in the garden, with a terrace. It offers simple accommodation that has a local spirit. Very clean, with outdoor kitchen, free cold and hot drinking water. AC, hot shower, well functioning WiFi. Comfortable bed. Extraordinary kind staff, in particular Drey was always available, smiling and helpful.

    The best hostel on that trip: clean, modern, social, but not a party hostel. The people that come here are exactly my type: backpackers in their late 20s-middle 30s, laid-back, kind and curious about the island. The pool is a huge bonus as well.
