Baler hotels

Pros: The owner granted our early check in at 630 am without additional cost. So Great! Strong water supply and air con plus the kitchen amenities were also readily available.

Cons: None

Pros: The beds are superb! The place is clean. Aircondition is working. Hot water is running. Staff and owner are very helpful and accomodating. We'll stay here again when we go back.

Cons: None.

Pros: Clean rooms.. the owner is so nice and the place is near to the beach area. Can order breakfast and it good.

Pros: I like the staffs and the cleanliness, when we stayed there we feels like at home,..They gave us free spaghetti when we arrived from our tour..

Cons: Since there is a shared kitchen I suggest they should have an additional fridge for the left over food that the guest cooked.

Pros: Rooms are comfortable. Showers are clean. Kuya Roy and kuya Ado were very accomodating to the extent that they even accompanied us to the market. The free pandesal was exceptional and a must try! The place was strategically located near 711 and about 5 mins walk towards the beach. If you're looking for a comfortable and reasonably priced transient in Baler, Chamies Place is definitely a place you can call home.

Cons: Limited space to store your stuff.

Pros: They let us use the kitchen for free since I think it was just us and not really peak and have given some tips in booking and travelling. Thank you

Cons: Liked everything

Pros: The staff are very accommodating. They fetch us when we arrived and accompanied us back to the bus terminal when we left. We even had free pandesal and coffee when we arrived early morning. The room is very clean, spacious and very affordable. Will surely book here again!

Pros: Very Accommodating owner

Cons: N/A

Pros: They have spacious and clean rooms. Good food and good location to stay at Baler. The staffs are very accommodating and so kind.

Pros: The kitchen is good with many utensils to use. The room is clean and wide to accommodate the 8 of us.

Cons: but the location is little bit far for us considering we travel with kids going to Sabang beach and need to cross the main road.

Pros: the staff (there were just two) were very friendly and helpful. even the owner was accommodating and engaged us in a short chat. the view of the rock formation (which the area is known for) is exquisite - right across the resort although there really isnt a swimming area for guests to swim in.

Cons: the problem really was that when it rained, water was dripping from the ceiling onto the bunk bed. there was also no wifi as indicated in the website and the generator and water supply were not working on our 2nd day when the power supply in the area was cut off. it was our misfortune also that there was big group (30 pax) that checked in at past midnight and was so noisy - drinking, shouting, and just being overall insensitive that there were other guests in the resort. we couldnt sleep at all because that group was just below us having a party well into the morning. it would have helped had there been rules posted about guest decorum in the resort and a security person assigned. in spite of experiences, i still think there is much potential to the place if repairs could be made and stricter rules applied for guests (especially big groups).

Pros: Everything

Cons: Comfortable

Pros: I like everyrthing!

Cons: None whatsoever

Pros: staffs and owner is so accomodating

Cons: nothing

Cons: Transfer of room everyday, such a hassle. No follow up on our request for the cable. (Description says with cable tv pero wala) Surprised by the need to check out early just because may papalit na sa room.

Pros: Hotel staff are so nice they treat you as a family. Very very nice people.

Cons: Beach has a lot of rocks not swimmable!

Pros: The staff are amazing! Value for money!

Cons: Not a thing. I literally loved everything.

Pros: super nag exceed ang owners to accommodate us. Thank u so much sir eric and miss lanny. Mabavait din kids nila.. Yung house at kitchen complete. Worth po talaga ang byahe from manila. Nag enjoy kami. For sure babalik po kami.

Pros: They provide what we need

Cons: A lot of ants, insects

Pros: Excellent, supportive staff who are very helpful and accomidating

Cons: Location is a bit far away if you're using public transport to get there from the bus terminal.

Pros: Clean. Spacious room. I will never stay here again.... aircon is not good. We transferred to another room, still the same. Mo resto air conditioned room,

Pros: Breakfast was very good. Liked the dried fish (espada). Pizza was great.

Cons: The toilet bowl had a bit of odor.

Pros: The vibe of the property, very relaxed.

Cons: The breakfast buffet could've been better. i was expecting more choices.

Pros: They got everything that I need, from artificial sweetener, to coffee maker in the room, and free surf lessons. The staff were really helpful, friendly, and accommodating. Our family had a wonderful experience in this resort.

Pros: Everything is nice!

Cons: The air con in the enclosed dining area was not functioning during our dinner and it felt like very very hot even with the water fan was on.

Pros: Clean. Comfortable. Staff was especially honest. I left an envelope in the safe with cash. They ran after me with the envelope as I was walking to the parking lot. They responded to my requests, and were happy and gracious all the time. Good alternative food places were available within five minutes walk.

Cons: The AC was hard to control. Too cold or too warm, and thermostat did not really work.

Pros: 1. Clean and spacious room. They should offer 3 to 4 person per room without adding extra charge per peron

Cons: 1. Aircon not so good in the room we stayed in but at the other room we got its ok. 2. There's too many sand in the pool.

Pros: The scenery

Cons: Hotel policy

Pros: The customer service was excellent staff very friendly and courteous. Food was exceptional

Cons: Need air con in restaurant area to hot

Cons: The aircon is not functioning.

Pros: Well it a quiet place very relaxing.

Cons: It’s just that it took us 2hrs to cook the food because of the stove so i suggest if they can upgrade it. And please complete the utinsils for cooking. It’s hard to cook garlic rice using the regular spoon, also it will be a good help if they always have groceries. So in that way we dont need to go to the market just for the can goods. Believe me it’s a win-win situation.

Pros: The owners and staff were very good. Place was very clean and communication was superb

Pros: Value for money

Cons: None

Pros: The location was perfect! Good amenities and accommodating staff! It was a wonderful experience for my family!

Pros: Staff were very kind and helpful specially ate Ellen. Our car broke down when we got there and she didn't hesitate to call a mechanic to help us. We even asked if we could take out containers for our picnic and they instantly gave us what we requested. Never have we met staffs this kind and accommodating. Rooms were clean except the TV was very small and had one channel but if you're the type of person who wants to explore, it won't bother you too much. The place is a bit far from the market but vendors pass by the place and they sell cheap lobsters and crabs you can buy Php 600.00 for 1kg. The place itself is awesome. Peaceful and relaxing. Worth the price and worth the distance. Will be back for sure!

Cons: No hot and cold shower. Dogs were everywhere and they scattered the garbage when they got the chance.

Pros: Cheap and cheerful , clean and excellent value for money

Cons: Everything was on

Pros: Location

Cons: We barely see the staffs.

Pros: The resort is located within Dela Torre Beach Resort. It’s not along Sabang Beach, which is the usual place to stay if you want to surf. It’s beachfront, but not suitable for bathing as it’s very VERY rocky. However, what I love about the place is that it’s quiet, peaceful, and definitely the kind of resort you’ll choose if you need some soul searching in Baler. They allow you to use the kitchen and all it’s wares, so all you need to do is buy food from the market. The place is quite far from Sabang, best if you have your own ride instead of renting a tryke. If you want accessibility to Sabang, then don’t choose this resort. Overall, I enjoyed my stay. I’ll definitely recommend this place to everyone I know.

Pros: The location..the view is magnificent..the room is awesome

Cons: Nothing...everythings perfect

Pros: i like the location it was front beach every morning you can listen to wave, and the people there are amazing and friendly.

Cons: i don't like that we have to share a kitchen cause there is no privacy and the another guest don't know how to remove their rice to the rice cooker cause when its time for us to cook we have to move it and wash it.

Pros: What i like about the place is the serenity,close to all tourist spot, and the service of ate “Weng” she cook our requested breakfast and lunch. The room is big with your own kitchen. It’s really nice for a family vacation.

Pros: Its our 3rd time to stay here. The place is nice, we love the beach front view.

Cons: The videoke from the neighbor room is so loud! They sang out loud until late in the midnight! I hope the property owners in this compound will limit the time of using videoke so it won't bother the other visitors.

Pros: Very quite at night, slept great. Had very early check in which was a plus, we got in at 5.00AM. The ladies went shopping for us we didn't have to go food shopping, that was a great surprise.

Pros: I like that the room we stayed in has kitchen complete with cooking utensils and LPG and it's spacious as well. The owner is very accommodating, we arrived past eleven pm already but he welcomed us with a smile on his face and did not leave us until we were settled.

Cons: I don't like the Comfort Room/ Shower, it is too small. they should have separated the bathroom and shower room.

Pros: Hospitality, Ambiance, Rooms are Clean, Nice people

Cons: No Shower, Power Outage

Pros: Location was on the beach

Cons: Cockroaches, Very noisy room right beside generator. No shower

Cons: The beach house was far from city proper and the only way to get there was by renting a tricycle.

Pros: We stayed here to celebrate Father's day with my family. This is a bit far from Sabang beach (surfers area) but a paradise for me because it's not crowded. The view from the rock formations is visible and IG worthy - even when low tide. We had a simple room with a very basic bathroom and you can cook in the common kitchen. We'll come back next year - or sooner!

Cons: The aircon is too small for a large room. It can be a bit warm in the afternoon. Also, wifi is not working. The only thing I irked about is the blast from the sound system by one of the guest. It was nearly midnight and they're playing the music too loud.

Cons: The locations

Pros: Breakfast is very good. The staff are good.

Cons: It is much better if they assign to me the beach front room.

Pros: Location on the beach food good and value for money Staff excellent and room always clean

Cons: Not so many other restaurants without driving

Pros: Facilities n food

Pros: Room a hot aircon not strong enough for the size of the room

Pros: Aside from the beach front, it is near from the other tourist place and good restaurants to dine and eat. The rooms are well cleaned up and the bed is very comfortable too!

Cons: Hopefully, there will be an elevator for visitors with elderly, babies and PWD.

Pros: - The beds were super comfortable - The TV had a great selection of channels - The food was in general, very good indeed - The staff were exceptionally helpful and friendly

Cons: Claiming to be a 3-star hotel is questionable. There were small things that could just elevate it to its claimed status, such as: having drinking glasses in the room, fix a leaking shower curtain, a welcome pack with details of things to do in the area and above all else, it's in dire need of a pool. Overall, as is very common in the Philippines, it is overpriced for what you get, as compared to other Asian countries.

Pros: - Rooms are big and clean - Beachfront - Big parking space

Cons: Frontdesk staff was completely rude. We came a little earlier, about an hour before the check-in time so I asked the said staff on what time we can check in. She said that our room is still occupied but will prioritize the cleaning of the room. After an hour, I followed up again. She said that the room is still being cleaned. So we waited another hour. When we are the only group left waiting, I followed up again for the 3rd time. This time, it seemed that she had completely forgotten us as I saw her very busy chatting and laughing about something with another staff. When I questioned her on why we are the last to check-in while we arrived the earliest amongst the guests, she frowned and said that those guests got premium rooms while ours just standard which is a complete insult. I believe that we should not be treated less than any other guests regardless of what type of room we prefer to get and pay for. Even other staff are not that hospitable as compared to those of other hotels. I guess the owner failed to train them well enough in terms of how to treat their customers with respect. - The aircondition unit is too small for the size of the room, it could not keep the room's temperature cool enough especially in the afternoon. - No swimming pool.

Pros: The room has a lot of insects like bugs, flies and ants. I was puzzled where it came from. The toiletries like soap and shampoo are pathetic. Its somewhat the same like youre in a pension house.

Cons: As stated above.

Pros: The view of the water

Cons: The food

Pros: Value for money. Customer friendly staff. Clean facilities. Perfect view. Yummy breakfast.

Cons: Suggest to have fruits and Buco juice

Pros: Staff very friendly, good location

Cons: There's water shortage and there's a lot of ants and bugs in the room.

Pros: The staff .. :)

Cons: None

Pros: Clean and quiet place near the beach (5 minute walk away). Good WiFi and breakfast which catered for local and European tastes. Staff are great.

Cons: No issues at all

Pros: Location is just a few minutes away from the beach via tricycle, could be a good walking distance if the sun isn't too hot.

Cons: Staff aren't familiar yet with the restaurants we're looking for. We paid for additional pax but they couldn't add an extra bed because the room was really small. The existing bed's comfortable though. Just the right value for money

Pros: The place is ok but the service was very poor, the swimming pool is filthy and the staff was not helpful.

Pros: Highly recommended for travelers,family & friends.

Cons: N/A

Pros: Delicious breakfast! Staff are very helpful, and friendly and gave us good recommendations for dinner. Location - really great cause it is near Sabang Beach and a few restaurants around the area.

Cons: The water heater has no thermostat.

Pros: Joseph was very accommodating. The room had extra amenities such as toiletries and some welcome chocolate and coffee.

Cons: Internet could be better. Also, the electricity kept on turning off. The inn has no generator.

Pros: The room was comfortable. Exactly like the one in the picture plus there were free snacks. Also the person manning the places was one text away. He picked us up from the terminal and took us somewhere we could have breakfast free of charge and picked us up again once done going to the accom. He was very accomodating. He even offers surfing lessons. They have complete ammenities even a fan aside from the aircon. The room was spacey. I also love the lamp they had and the rooma aesthetic

Cons: The hot water for the shower wasnt working.

Pros: Everything! It was a really convenient place in terms of location without being extremely busy. A super quick walk to the beach and a lot of places to eat. Cute rooms and amenities were as listed. Totally worth it.

Cons: There was no sign with the name of the place so it was a tiny bit hard to find, but thankfully the staff was extremely helpful helping us find the place.

Pros: Cozy room, tea coffee maker, snacks

Cons: Litbit noisy in early mornings

Pros: Close to the beach, about 2 minutes walk, but definitely not at the beach front. Accomodating staff.

Cons: No parking for hotel guest. A bit hard to find as the inn has no signboard.

Pros: Accessibility, amenities such as coffee and snacks, accommodating and friendly owners, comfy bed, place is very clean when we got there, pocket wifi. Love their blanket!

Cons: Noisy neighbors, slow pressure in the shower, sink faucet already rusty and needs to be replaced, no mirror in the room.

Pros: The owner was very accomodating and he was also the one who taught us how to surf.

Pros: Property caretaker is very accommodating. neighborhood is relatively quiet.

Cons: I hope the water heater has a thermostat to control water temp. a little redesigning of the room, e.g. taller table, move aircon a little to the left, bed is better on wall of CR ; change central lighting bulb.

Pros: clean, serene, staff service, value for money

Pros: the outdoor set up, very relaxing

Cons: need bigger cabinet for the stuff.

Pros: It feels like paradise

Cons: Frequent power shortage But they have backup power generator.

Pros: Beautiful setting, lovely staff, little shop on the site, our own table and chairs in the garden. We had a really great time.

Cons: Shower could do with an upgrade.

Pros: A good place to stay with my hubby to enjoy our anniversary. Far from noise of the City and a quiet place for vacation.

Pros: Nice place, friendly staff and owner, and also a very great weekend!

Pros: Location! A very serene and quiet place. Perfect for relaxation. Really clean and well kept with so many facilities.

Cons: No nearby restaurants to choose from but it's okay since we can cook our own foods.

Pros: Location was awesome, very friendly staff, cheap but very nice villas.

Cons: Brown out schedule, and hopefully have bigger generator for the aircon in case of brownout schedule

Pros: Although slightly far (about 20mins) from the town proper, the location is serene. If you are looking for a party vibe, this is not the place to stay. If you want to relax, bond with your family and have drinks with friends without being bothered; then this is perfect. Facilities are standard but complete, beds are comfortable, there are little stores nearby to buy necessities and definitely value for money. They can also organise transportation if need be. If there is anything better I could say, the staff and the driver made our stay even more easier. They were very accommodating, flexible and nothing was too complex. I do think however that the Eugene’s Place sign at the front deserves a makeover.

Cons: WIFI was really non-existent. Mobile signal also comes and goes.

Pros: Facilities are clean. Good value for money. Staff are super nice

Cons: It doesn’t have a pool.

Pros: We had a last minute booking as it was an unplanned road trip really. The staff are so courteous and polite accommodating me and my family and our dog. The place was good and clean. Although we had trouble going to the place due to the (literally) unpaved road which I believe was just under construction. I suggest you bring with you a 4x4 to traverse lol..In short "nabalahaw" kami kase the place was right in front of the beach area. I hope next time it would be a proper road. But all in all I can highly recommend the place and kudos to ate Irene and her husband kuya Mar for being so helpful and taking care of us.

Cons: The unpaved sandy road going to and from Balai Jujai.

Pros: Hotel is okay and is on the beach front

Cons: Too far from the restaurants

Pros: Does

Cons: Does not have a resto, considering the location. I had to go out to have lunch and dinner.

Pros: Obe the place, so beaituful and near the beach.

Pros: cleanliness

Pros: Intimate and private, yet secured

Cons: Poor water supply for the outside showers. Cant get rid of the beach sands before entering the room

Pros: Good food. Good facilities. Great pools and has wide ares for exploration and lazing around. Its remoteness makes it a perfect getaway for people who seek quietude.

Cons: Pool and restaurant closes too early.

Pros: The porters who helped us with our luggage

Cons: The curtained hotel room making privacy compromised. The food not so good with waiting time extremely long. The male receptionist was selectively unattenting to elderly females, unaccepting complains.

Pros: Rooms are clean , staff are friendly beach area can be cleaner.pool need improvement ,bottom of pool is slippery food service very slow.Hot food is serve cold.ie steak.

Cons: Entrance road improvement.Too rough and too dark at night .Drivers quarters need improvement .too small for human being to stay.

Pros: Perfect pool for the kids, they enjoyed a lot. Food was really great! Especially the pancakes, kids love em. The whole resort is nice, very cute theme. Staff were helpful and polite. Mattress was perfect! Very comfy!

Cons: It wasn't easy to locate, swimming at the beach wasn't advisable at the time we were there, there were a lot of insects, no cabinets/drawers

Pros: The facility is very nice and clean. Bed is very comfortable.

Cons: Nothing really. We all agree the place is comfortable and pleasant. But staff can maybe benefit on improving their personality. The cafe staff need to more approachable and accomodating.

Pros: Nice and clean room. Attentive staff. Exclusivity of the place

Cons: Wifi only accessible in the lobby. For the price u pay, internet connection should well be available in the rooms as well. Extra php500 per pet u bring. Extra php250 for early check in. Something most hotels offer for free. This resort has potentials but needs improvement

Pros: Very good location

Cons: The staff did not issue official reciept and asked us to request first from booking.com

Pros: The ambiance, the staff, basically the whole resort.

Cons: Over priced food

Pros: Food was very nice..and plenty to choose from..

Cons: I liked everything..is very good value..will go there again.

Pros: The room and the facilities was clean, comfortable and well decorated! Apart from its too far from the beach and staff failed to update us important details on our booking. This is a nice small resort!

Cons: I booked a standard room with a double bed and a single bed and paid it in full by card. When we arrived, we were being given a hut instead so i asked for an upgrade which i paid P1,500 in full, in cash. When we are checking out, i was asked to pay additional P3,500 because the receptionist made a mistake of charging me 1 night instead of 2 nights without informing us throughout our stay. If only i knew earlier, we could have booked another room near the beach as this resort is 4km. away from the beach. Because of this, i ran out of cash for my other itineraries as the additional P3,500 is not within my budget! Also, the Restaurant Staff kept us waiting a long long time to have our meals served!

Pros: i love everything!

Cons: too bad the jakuzzi was broken

Pros: Comfortable and relaxing place..

Cons: Location

Pros: Good place peaceful and relaxing. Highly recommend

Pros: Peace and quite, host are very accommodating and friendly. The lobby was very relaxing especially chilling on the hammock. Kitchens available at any time, feels like home. Location is almost near to everything which is perfect. Definitely coming back.

Cons: We rented the quad room with bunk bed. Nothing much to do in the room. Room is just for sleeping and showering. But could do with a TV for rainy days.

Pros: Just a little walk from the beach

Cons: Picture in the internet is different from the actual rooms / whole place.. It's a small room and has no table and chairs

Pros: Great, ,clean, affordable and nice place to stay (for couples/group). Staff and owner were friendly and easy to communicate with our needs ( extra towel, blanket etc). Inn is near to sabang beach (walking distance) and restaurants in baler. Recommended to stay in this place.

Cons: NONE

Pros: the room is clean and we enjoy it

Pros: The owner is very accommodating! She let us enter even if we're way ahead of the check in time. We got there before 7am and she let us stay there. I guess it's because there were no guests yet but I think if we booked in other hostels, they won't let us in that early. Facilities are good. Well enough for our needs. I would recommend it to anyone!

Pros: Perfect location. Friendly staff.

Pros: Location is the best. Beach is just a few steps away. And the view from the balcony is truly beautiful

Pros: Very friendly and easy staff. Small but very clean and neat rooms (took the smallest in the list anyway). Just beach front. The restaurant has upgraded menu since my previous stay and there was good vegetarian choice of dishes already.

Pros: I like the price

Cons: everything else

Cons: I thought the room was like a hotel style! It was an old nipa hut style room. No hot shower. For 3 nights stay, nobody cleaned the room. Did not change beddings. No free mineral water.

Pros: Staff are courteous and accommodating

Pros: Location is good, right on the beach and near a really nice restaurant

Cons: Beach is very dirty, surfing was great but so much garbage and burning plastic.

Pros: The house is super lovely and is also the home of two super cute dogs. They have a great kitchen with everything you need and a garden. Pure home feeling

Pros: The location is walking distance to the beach and municipal hall. Cozy interior. Even if we stayed in a fan room, it was relatively cool.

Cons: Cleanliness. There was a dead rat outside the kitchen, which smelled really bad and wasn't disposed properly. There were pests like rats and cockroaches.

Pros: I like the location. It's good that the Sabang beach is just 5-minute walk.

Cons: The fans in the fan room are not enough and we find the additional charge for the aircon use very excessive and unreasonable (P1,500 per night for the family room).

Pros: I will reply to you before i deactivate my account. First of all, this is not the first time we traveled so i very well know that this is not the way to deal with a customer/tourist. It was indeed our fault not to check the specifications on the booking because this is the first time i have encountered that the AC is not part of the price of the room that we rented so that is not something i would look into. Also, we were in a hurry to book the hotel since it was already late at night that we arrived at Baler. We have two kids with us, 1.2yr old and 4yr old respectively. When we entered the hostel, nobody was there to tend to us but a Canadian named Cody who don't have any idea what to do, he just asked us to sign a log book, so we figured things out ourselves. I know that houserules were posted everywhere in the house but we didnt have time to read those since we were tired from the 8hr drive. We asked Cody where we should stay and he said we can choose where to stay since we were the only guest in the house. He asked us about the AC and i said "I think so" since i assumed that AC's should be part of the room rate. We were settled between 8-9pm and slept with the AC on, not knowing we had to pay extra for that. We woke up at 6am getting ready to go out for our itenirary for the day. We got back at the hostel at 7 or 8. That was when we were asked to pay extra for the AC. It's not that we did not want to pay. We were just thinking that some consideration would be given to us since we were not entirely at fault that nobody was there to orient us about those "unusual houserules" the ate in the house was nice and kind but she said that someone from manila is the one who will give the last say about the matter, so i asked to talk to that someone (i forgot to ask for the name).

Cons: She is the most disrespectful, inconsiderate, and rude person I have ever met who is in thd customer service industry. We were the guests and yet we were the ones being threatened to get reported to the police so that we wil be banned from going back to Baler daw. So my mother who is 65 years old already feared for our lives if we decide to stay in the hotel for the remaining day that we booked and already paid the hotel. We suggested that we won't pay the AC fee but we will leave already and call it quits. She went on and say that we still have to pay. Anger consumed me and said that whatever she says, we can actually just leave and not pay for the AC fee since the room fee was already paid via credit card. She went on and threatened us. When the people in the house heard her rudeness, they tried to calm us by saying that we are not obligated to pay the AC fee and that they understand us. They even tried to stop us from going since it will be dangerous to drive at night with the two kids with us, but my mother insisted that we go so we just had to pray that we will be able to go home safely though we had to leave at 9:30pm and be on the very dangerous road of Baler going back to Manila. Before we left, we actually tried to pay the AC fee but understanding our situation and feeling for our predicament, the people there insisted that we should not pay because the inconvenience that vacation-turned-horror story that brought us is more than enough payment for that ridiculous AC fee. I hope this sheds some light on the situation and i hope you reflect on your actions as well. We actually planned on getting back by writing bad reviews and all but we just let this experience be water under the bridge and forget that it ever happened. Honestly, i dont the AC fee would ever compensate to the horror that this experience brought us. Thank you and i hope you try to do better to your guests next time. Show quoted text
