Outside the room is a dining table with chairs for easy breakfast and dinner access, but it's also near the kitchen where staff prepare food.

Please be considerate and don't ask for the staff to prepare breakfast at 4 or 5am (some guests amazingly do).

The traditional construction of wood and thatch offers a delightful indoor climate and a cozy, homely atmosphere. However, this natural construction also means that, at times, you may notice TINY BITS OF WOOD falling due to climatic changes, or perhaps a small lizard making its way inside, hunting for mosquitoes. Though the rooms are thoroughly cleaned and sanitized before each guest's arrival, these occurrences are part of the authentic provincial experience. Wooden floors may creak, and while these features add character, they might be unfamiliar to guests used to modern buildings.

We are pleased to inform you that we have since rebuilt the fence, repaired the roof, and cleaned up the property to create a welcoming environment. - **Mosquito Awareness:** Being a tropical country, the Philippines has its share of mosquitoes. We recommend bringing insect repellent to enhance your comfort during your stay. - **Accommodation Quality:** Please note that our sanctuary does not offer 5-star accommodations. The proximity to the ocean and the effects of annual typhoons mean our house may show some signs of wear and tear. We aim to set realistic expectations, so if you’re seeking luxury accommodations, we kindly ask you to consider other options. The true charm of our home lies in its secluded beach location and the authentic experience of Boholano life, making it a perfect fit for solo travelers, couples, and small families. - **Electricity Availability:** Our island occasionally experiences electric brownouts (tropical blackouts). While such outages are rare, they can result in temporary power loss for a few hours, which is beyond our control. We do have a generator, but it may take a few minutes to get it operational. Please consider this aspect before finalizing your stay. - **Free Corkage:** Feel free to bring your own food at no extra charge. - **Kids Stay Free:** One child aged 5 years or younger can stay for free if sharing a bed with parents. - **Pet-Friendly:** Each group is welcome to bring one small pet for a fee, so you don’t have to leave your furry friend behind! - **Inclusive Environment:** We proudly maintain a safe and welcoming space for all guests, including those from LGBTQ+ and transgender communities Thank you for your understanding. We look forward to welcoming you to our sanctuary!
