One of the best places i have ever been to! Michele and Uli, the German/Swiss managers and their super-friendly pinoy team do everything to make your stay there unforgettable. Situated right on a black-sandy beach, quiet and peaceful. Any kind of leisure activities, just see their homepage, it is updated and any word they write is true. Excellent food, try... More

One of the best places I've been! Great ambiance, warm and cozy rooms, awesome staff (Thanks Eva). Michelle wasn't there when we arrive so Eva entertained us instead. We love the place so much I wish we could have stayed there longer. Booking is not that difficult but I would advice you to book in advance. Anyway, hope to have... More

Lonely Planet’s top choice. Not surprising the place is excellent. We tried to book 3 nights but they were full and we could only get 2. Michelle was great. She always got back to emails really quickly and was so helpful trying to get us a flight in the early morning so we could actually stay another day. She even... More

Absolutely fantastic resort to stay: Good food, excellent hosts and beautiful island. Book your bungalow in advance. Otherwise, you will risk to stay in one of those backpacker rooms and share the bathroom with other people. That being said, still a good option for low budget travellers. Backpacker rooms are small, yet clean and convenient. I'm sure the bungalows are... More

Unfortunately we couldn't stay in a bungalow as they were all fully booked, so we stayed in one of the travelers room above the restaurant. The room was perfect; clean and cozy. I espessialy liked the big lounge erea with little tables, a hammock and couchons on the floor. The restaurant downstairs was nicely decorated. The food was good, although... More

very beautiful island with very friendly people, resort was awesome (you have to try the walnut pie I still dream about it!). Hibok Hibok is worth the effort of getting to the top (get a registered guide, otherwise you will just walk up there with a cigarette smoking, flip-flop wearing local speaking no word of English - but I am...

Action geckos is a lovely place to stay in camiguin. It's cool, quite and lovely place. It's a perfect place to relax. Michelle and their staff are very friendly and accommodating to any inquiries. She arranged our transport from CDO airport to Balingoan for our ferry trip to camiguin. We really enjoyed our stay there last 27-29 sept 11.. Many... More

Camiguin is worth a visit. An island where nature is just out of your cottage. The best place to stay are the Action Geckos. The wide beach with palm trees is just out of the cottage and the water is warm and very clear. The very friendly staff told us that the the beach would be only half the size... More

A couple or firsts for me in this place. 1. First time to make a downpayment thru mobile credits. (not a bad thing - just a first) 2. First time to get confirmation one day before the actual check-in even after making a downpayment. what are you trying to sell our spot to the next highest bidder? 3. First time... More
