Nice rooms with a very nice view and a beautifull bathroom with an outside shower!! When you want to See something from Bohol Island this is the perfect stay! For Diving or beaches it is 45 minutes by scooter, but it is a nice road and easy drive!! They have delicious food and you can book all the activities from here, like; stand up padeling, scooter rent, etc. Frederic is the owner (dutch speaking) and very welling to help with everything! The staff in the restaurant is very nice, thanks JM!!

The cottage is cozy, with so much about the Loboc’s culture and native style that we really like about. The bed was amazing that we both slept like a baby. I would like to thank Kuya Troy for the wonderful paddle experience by the river, he is so incredible and really knows his job and also JM from the restaurant; we really felt his genuine hospitality and his passion about his job. This property has a very accommodating staff and is worth coming back in the future.

Our place is our little paradise, our sanctuary, our space, which we openly share to those who can and will appreciate it. Those who love nature and simplicity, our place is for you. Welcome to Fox & The Firefly Cottages!

Hi I'm a traveller myself, I like to do adventurous things and be in nature. I practice and teach Yoga or SUP Yoga in our resort when I'm around and I regularly do biking and paddleboarding in Loboc River. Hope you can join me sometime! Joan

We keep it local! Our hotel staff and tour guides are local villagers, get to know the village through their insight. Ask them and they will be happy to tell you all about Loboc town or other things to do in Bohol Island.

Far from everything a little. You need a scooter... The breakfast are very good but the rest is so so... the portions are actually quit small and the price is also expensive in my opinion.
The cottage is just wow! The outdoor shower, the relaxing area near the river, the staff is very nice and helpful in a local area!

Small miscommunication with staff (they forgot to order our trycicle) that lead us to pay more for our transportation to the port. But the option was found and we weren't late.
This place was an absolute pleasure to stay at. It completely exceeded our expectations and was our favourite place we stayed at during our trip to Philippines. I highly highly recommend it to everyone! Moreover, it has a restaurant which serves amazing meals. The staff was super nice and welcoming and did everything and beyond to make us feel comfortable. Thank you!

“Beautiful design ”

No air-con in the room and it was very warm, which meant we didn’t sleep that well. If you need medical attention they do not have a doctor that comes to the Hotel. Scooter rental is by the day and not 24h, which means if you try to rent a scooter at 18:00h (which was my case) you need to return it by 23:00h on the same day and you still have to pay the full price. No exception nor discount is made, that’s the rule they told me. The tour prices are expensive compared with other operators.
Design wise, the Hotel is really beautiful, the prettiest so far in all the Philippines we stayed at. The attention to detail can be seen throughout all spaces. The room is spacious and the bed very comfortable, although a bit on the short side as my feet didn’t fit (I’m 1’90m). The shower is great as it is on the exterior and gives you a nice tropical feeling and nothing better as to relax and enjoy the view and sunset on the porch or balcony if you have one of the rooms facing the back. The food in the restaurant is very tasty and beautifully presented. The swimming deck is very nice to relax and swim in the river.

There’s nothing not to like! You know this when you book so it isn’t a criticism but remember this is an eco lodge in the jungle so no air con and plenty of mosquitos but as above a fan and net are provided.
Beautiful location and the view from our suite was beautiful. Wonderful food at the Food and Stables restaurant. There are lots of activities such as mountain biking and firefly watching. Excellent friendly staff. The rooms are beautiful, a fan and mosquito net are provided. Would highly recommend and if you can stay in the cottage/suite as it was beautiful 👌🏼

We don’t understand the hype about this place. If you want some rest don’t come to this place. We are broken because we didn’t had any proper sleep. There is loud karaoke at the river and the restaurant is to close by the cottages so there is a lot of noise like music and a blender at 6 am. Also the gardeners and all the other staff start working before 6.00 am. And then all the animals around the place like pigs, roosters, dogs what screams all night long. Also I saw and heard a few times that the staff spits in the garden, disgusting. The staff at the restaurant makes constantly mistakes with the orders. The WiFi is really bad. So not a place if you want some peace.
the location at the river is great. The outdoor shower is an experience with warm water! Nice! Also the Staff is friendly

The communication at the reception was sometimes difficult but this was not the case with all the personel members.
The general 'jungle' theme of the whole hotel is very well done and there is a lot of attention to detail. The cotages are surrounded by a lot of plants and flowers which are all very well maintained. The restaurant area is also beautifully done and fits the surroundings, The room itself is modern and very clean. We stayed in a superior cottage and absolutely loved the outside bathroom.

Food was good but a bit overpriced. Since the area was slightly remote, you didn’t really have much choice but to eat there. Would’ve been a great deal if breakfast (and maybe even free use of the paddle board even for 30 mins) was already part of the room charge.
The beautiful and clean rooms, the hangout spot by the river bank, and the friendly & efficient staff were the definite highlights of the trip 😊
