ARC Modern Nest

MariaRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago

We had a wonderful stay! The linens smelled so fresh and clean, and the entire house was spotless. It had all the amenities we needed—plenty of plates, drinking glasses, mugs, knives, a chopping board, frying pans, casseroles in different sizes, a gas range, rice cooker, heater, refrigerator, water dispenser, hair dryers, and an electric iron. There were also enough hangers, which was very convenient. The only minor downside was that the bathroom didn’t have a bucket and dipper, and the washing machine was defective. Other than that, everything was great, and we truly enjoyed our stay. Highly recommended!

Bahay Ni Kikay with Wifi, Netflix and Cable TV

PrimaRating, 5 stars2 months ago

What a stunning place! Perfect for us! We went went to attend the Notre Dame Alumni Assn. Intl. 16th Biennial Grand reunion in our hometown Gen. Santos City. Manuel and his wife Julie opened the gate with a welcoming smile. Always offering to help yet stayed quiet in the background. Excellent laundry service. They even cooked breakfast for us and helped with our party. The place was perfect for five of us who stayed there for 14 days! We love everything about Bahay ni Kikay and Bahay ni Momm. Cooking in the kitchen, the garden, the spacious living area, the airconditioned bedrooms and work place/cum family room, the peace and quiet. All of my companions are seasoned travelers. I have stayed in AirBnBs in many countries, but Melinda's most memorable It felt like home away from home. The bonus? We were able to invite friends and family to visit us. There was plenty of room for a quiet party! I will stay there over and over again! Thank you super host Melinda! We felt pampered

AC works great it gets cold fast and the internet is strong enough to work remote. There are a lot of rules they are clearly written. I got my 500.00 php deposit back no problem. I didn't use the kitchen I did use grab and brought some trash bags with us because grab creates a lot garbage. It's a good house especially for what your paying.

RQ Cozy Place w/Fiber Wifi & Netflix

4.86 out of 5 average rating, 7 reviews3 months ago

Rachel was a great host. Great communication. The house was clean and beds and bedding very comfortable and clean. Wifi worked great with a smart TV so you can watch whatever you want also she let me use her Netflix since I didn't have an account. Pretty much everything you need to live and make dinners for a week or months stay. Washer/dryer is there and easy to use. Easy to call a grab taxi right to the house or just walk out to the street for a trike. For me the location was perfect being halfway between family and Gensan. Safe area with great neighbors. There is a sari sari store just a short walk from the house they probably have anything you need there from food or household items and even a few beers. It is a good 20 to 30 minute taxi into town which isn't bad if you are not going often. I was very happy with the stay and most likely I will be back again in the near future.

Such a quiet neighborhood. The home is modern and has modern amenities. Laundry/dryer is a plus. Roi, the host, is responsive. The only problem was one stovetop burner was not functioning. We liked this home very much that we even extended our stay for another 20 days.

Cheerful 1 bedroom tiny house with plunge pool

4.9 out of 5 average rating, 90 reviews1 month ago

We loved the privacy of the place. It was also complete with all the necessary appliances. The dip pool was perfect for the kids. We know gensan can get scorching hot in summer and the pool was a perfect addition to the amenities. The caretaker who lives next door was also always ready to help. The kids cannot wait to go back and are actually asking for more days to stay there. The sleeping arrangement was also perfect for us because we have 3 children who are used to sleeping with us. For the price, we got more than what we paid for!
