    Host was very accomodating and replies fast to querries. The picture is exactly the same of what is advertised. I like the kubo, its very homey and comfy. Me and my firends had a wonderful stay.

Newly built unique lodging types. There is one modernized traditional Bahay Kubo or Nipa Hut with terrace. One more basic nipa hut with fan and a Cool Container studio with kitchenette. There is a very small pool (4feetx8feet) that is good for no more than 2-persons. The pool is more of an outdoor tub. There is also a shared outdoor kitchen and small garden. Stay among locals at Habitat Phase A in Mabuhay Barangay. Located just 15-minutes from gensan proper by motorbike, car or tricycle. This is a quiet, charming neighborhood! There are small sari-sari stores, turo-turo food nearby (cooked food for sale in tiny plates), fruit and vegetable stands and a couple of small bakeries. In the afternoons, the residents will prepare bbqs, snacks and kainin (desserts) sold in front of their homes. Nearby is SM Mall, GFarm, trail to Sanchez Peak (in Barangay Conel), Blue lagoon or Cave.
I mostly work from home online. Love to grow and tend to a garden. I enjoy going for a hike, swim and generally stay fit and healthy. There are lots of hiking grounds just 15-minute drive away from this property, cave with blue lagoon to swim in, beaches and other natural sites to visit.
This is a charming residential neighborhood with friendly residents. Quiet, charming neighborhood!
