Book a Badian Island Resort

"We had a great few days at the Pescadores suites hotel. The room was comfortable and quiet and the breakfast was good. The hotel is very conveniently located to Pangasama beach and restaurants and a short walk into town. The snorkeling right off the hotel premises was excellent also. Woukd highly recommend."

"Oh the Casablanca, we loved you! The hotel is built recently, brand new. They have just added a beautiful pool and it is lovely. I only say this because from the photos it looks like an old classic which I love, but the amenities are brand new which is AWESOME. We stayed both on the main floor and the second floor and we preferred the second floor. Abigail and the entire staff are super great, friendly and kind. They have brand new scooters for rent for a very good price and we used them a lot. The hotel is about 5 minutes from the Sardine run. This is away from the busy hostel area which is ideal for us. We extended our stay here because we wanted more time in the area. 2-3 days is perfect. We will come here again. Thanks also to the lovely Raquel. See you soon John and Jho"

"Beautiful resort right on the water- you can wade out and snorkel! Restaurant overlooks water. Super friendly staff. They accommodated our early Canyoneering excursion by offering either breakfast to go or to have it when we got back (when breakfast time had past!). A 5 minute walk takes you to beach area where you can wade in a snorkel to see sardines and sea turtles! "

"We had an enjoyable stay at D'Gecko Hotel. The location was great, and the room was clean and comfortable. Regarding the slippers to be used in the room - we thought this was a good idea to avoid common areas getting sandy/dirty - however we just wish they'd provided larger sizes of slippers!"

"Magical place where you can leave the world behind."

"Loved our stay at Marika resort! We stayed in the big family room and it was so comfortable. Very spacious! My group of 6 had such an amazing time! The staff is amazing and helped with everything! We will come back! "

"This is a dive resort with an amazing house reef! Went to pescador island from this resort and snorkelling was better on the house reef. Take a tricycle into town. It’s worth visiting. Food was good and great spot for three nights"

"We had the most incredible 3-day stay at Tim's Beachouse Hotel property in Cebu, Philippines! The beachfront location was absolutely perfect, offering a peaceful, relaxing atmosphere with a beautiful pool to unwind in. Our room was spacious, clean, and comfortable – the ideal place to come back to after a day of adventures. Breakfast was available to order, and nothing beats enjoying a traditional Filipino breakfast with breathtaking beach views. It truly set the tone for each of our mornings. The small, intimate vibe of the property made us feel like we were part of the family, which made our stay even more special. We spent our days on amazing day trips to Oslob and Moalboal, went swimming with whale sharks, explored the sardine run, and even went canyoneering at the waterfalls. After such exciting days, the massages every night were a perfect way to relax and recover. We rented scooters to explore the province life, which was fantastic, and the local guides made everything even more enjoyable. While the property is close to the road and you can hear the bus passing by, the sound becomes background noise after a day full of adventure. With the right mindset, you'll have the best sleep you've ever had. Tim and Anne were such wonderful hosts, making us feel like family from the moment we arrived. Their hospitality made our stay unforgettable, and we can't wait to return. This was a truly relaxing and memorable experience, and we wish we could have stayed longer!!"

"The location is stunning, with a reef just offshore. It’s perfect for snorkeling or scuba diving!"
