    Geoff, Nida and George were absolutely amazing, so friendly and great hosts. They made our time in Siargao really special. Really spacious and clean room with a beautiful garden to chill out in. We had no power cuts here compared to other parts of the island where they were frequent. We will definitely be returning!

    From the moment we arrived we were warmly welcomed by Jeff and Nida. They are so helpful and had great recommendations. Large spacious room with AC and a communal kitchen. The property is so beautiful and well maintained. Location is great, short drive to the main area. Scooter rental right across the street.

    Jeff and Nida are excellent hosts. I had a very good time both regarding my overall stay (very nice cottage!) and chatting with them occasionnaly. Despite having visited Siargao already, I still learnt about a couple of new places thanks to them.

    I had a wonderful experience staying at Nida's place. Jeff and Nida are warm and welcoming and immediately helped me with everything. The garden cottage was clean and spacious, a 5 litre water bottle was provided. I absolutely loved the garden, which is very well maintained. The location is super convenient, with easy access to local attractions, yet quiet. The breakfast restaurant next to the homestay, served really delicious and affordable meals. There are motorbike rentals next door and surf schools down the road. I highly recommend this place.

    The only one minor thing that let's Nidas down is when we stayed there was no WIFI & unfortunately the mobile signal in the rooms isn't the best. In my opinion that is a very minor issue but I would definatley recommend & I would happily stay again at Nidas 🤙🏻

    Great location as I'm the rooms are tucked away at the back of the property away from the main road. Close enough to walk to restaurants & only 1 minute ride to sunset bridge. Good location to stay if you surf as close both to the boat that heads to Stimpys & Rock Island but also Cloud 9! It's also less than 10 mins scooter ride to the hussle & bustle of General Luna. Lovely garden to relax in & have your morning coffee. Room is large with a big comfy bed, AC & an added bonus in my opinion a decent ceiling fan above the bed, seperate shower & toilet is also attached to each room. Both Nida & Jim are easy to talk to & can give you guidance on the area & arrange scooter rental, airport transfers. Super easy going & laid back, if you need your room.cleaned, fresh sheets or towels just ask & it will be done that day!

    Did not have a Wife but you not going to need one, a sim card is all you need. And the majority of the time you will be out exploring. The power will go out for like a few seconds sometimes when it rains, which is something no one can't control. But other than that I would still definitely recommend it. great place.

    It's a perfect location, I would recommend it. I arrived there early and the host was very flexible in allowing me to check in early. Perfect place if you're staying for more than a week. And very reasonable price.

    Jeff e Nida are really funny and chilled hosts! We loved our stay at their place. The place is close to Cloud9 and a few minutes ride to the main restaurants and bars.

    Staying at Nida’s Place was the best decision for our time in General Luna. The accommodation is just around the corner of Cloud 9, so you can basically even walk there within a few minutes and go surfing or chill by the beach every day. The private room is really spacious and equipped with a comfy bed and nicely working fan and aircon as well as a small terrace. Everything was clean. The price is really fair, you will probably not find a better deal in the area. The kitchen is perfect to prepare breakfast or some meals and free drinking water supply is available. The garden and outdoor area in front of the rooms are really beautiful and taken care of really well. Nida (the host) will help you with anything, she is a lovely person and really communicative. We enjoyed staying at her beautiful home and can recommend her place to anyone. All the best, Paul.

    Some parts need some TLC. Kitchen pans need a good clean before use as lots of mould in cupboards.

    Beautiful setting, lovely garden. Lots of nature frogs jumping round at night, 2 bunnies in a cage. Property was OK for us but it is basic and not luxury. We loved that there was a big kitchen fridge and little gas cooker so we could buy groceries and cook a few meals to save eating out. 10 minute walk from cloud 9 but plenty of restaurants on the way. Nida was available if we needed.

    Feels like home - very welcoming hosts. Good quite location but also close to General Luna and Sunset bridge and Cloud 9 surfing are. You can easily rent a motorbike here and find some local restaurants. I was supposed to stay 11 nights but extended 2 times because I loved it. Thanks a lot guys for making my stay here an amazing memory to remember!! 🙏❤️

    The aircon was a bit noisy and the bathroom is small and has no space to leave the toilet bag (but luckily there is enough spce in the room to place it there)

    Jeff and Nida are amazing host. They are so friendly and helped us with everything we needed. The Room was quite big and the location is very good to. There is a covered Parking space for the motorbike and a big garden, where you can hang your wet clothes for drying. We also loved george the dog …

    The kitchen could do with some TLC but it was functional.

    Clean and comfortable rooms which were a good size. The location is good if you want to go surfing at jacking horse or cloud 9. It is a walk or a short drive to the restaurants and bars. Jeff and Nida were really friendly and helpful, we would definitely stay here again.

    Nida and her entire family were super welcoming and friendly. We always felt well looked after and really enjoyed the stay there. The location is fantastic, as it is close enough to town to be able to reach everywhere within 10 minutes whilst also in a rather quiet area with less traffic. Beautiful garden and the water heater in the shower worked really well which was great for those post-rainy-surf showers.
