The place simple and yet charming, quite stylish and a beachfront. The staff are very accommodating and so helpful. I love that it is serene and peaceful, the location. Plus they have good books. There is a shared kitchen and they provide coffee. They also arrange airport transfer and motorbike rental, so you are basically well taken care of, even when we transfer to another place for our last night, they still help us with the airport transfer. Id recommend this place also if you want to stay longer in Siargao. Plus the dogs are friendly and sweet. Id definitely stay here again.

Sarah Philippines

Their staffs are very nice. They can do laundry. 5 pesos per undies and 10 pesos per top/short. Rooms and toilets are spacious.

Richel Philippines

I really like the hospitality of miss hannah and Jonathan. The place is squeaky clean and they do room makeup everyday (except on sunday) beddings are replaced every 2 days. I love the shared kitchen, it provided us everything we need for cooking. We made most of our meals there. The beach is just a few steps from our hut.

Goodettes Philippines

Easy-access to the beach, the perfect isolation from the main hustle and bustle, and lovely staff (shout out to Gillian)

Surfing Carabao is a great beach front property in Malinao. Very private, plenty of space, clean, staff were awesome and very helpful, there’s a nice common kitchen, and there’re lounges available to just laze away.
