Monthly Rentals in Samboan

Affordable stay. The host was kind enough to let us stay for few more hours. ❤️

This is by far the best Airbnb experience I’ve ever had. This beach house was pure magic! Angele was a superb communicator and made our stay extremely comfortable and went above and beyond to accommodate our needs. Also, don’t skip the host guide book! They absolutely nail all the best places to go and things to see in the area. We love, love, loved everything about this trip specifically because of this home :)

When we arrive, we had a friendly welcome and we met Edelyn who was friendly and happy to help where she could. Due to the isolated location she let us hire her scooter to get around. There is one restaurant opposite but with limited opening hours. Unfortunately, one evening the place had closed before we managed to eat so we ended up eating pot noodle from the shack a few doors down. Unfortunately, we ended our trip with a bad taste in our mouth due to the fact the number plates on the motorbike being stolen. Edelyn took care of what needed to be done e.g reporting it to the police etc but insistent we paid for the inconvenience and replacement on the number plate as she had no insurance. Finally we agreed on a 50/50 split on the cost. Overall the accommodation was gorgeous and clean. It looks like there is a beach front but it is a wall with a drop to the water, we didn’t see an accessible beach within the immediate area. Oslob is a 40 min scooter ride away and Moalboal 60 minutes

We loved our stay at Carolina del Mar! 4 rooms with en suite bathrooms between 10 adults and 2 kids made it a comfortable stay. Kitchen was functional and suited our needs. We did bring our own coolers to stock ice in, fridge was too small for our supplies (and big appetites!) We loved hanging out at the beachfront cabana where we made iced coffee and grilled bbq. There was an unexpected blackout due to a transformer issue elsewhere and the hosts and the caretaker, Kuya Gidz, were very responsive and updated us that it was being fixed. We had fun snorkeling near-shore and even further out where there is more sea life to enjoy. The strong currents during our stay are something to take note so just make sure you have a swim/dive buddy and flotation devices if you're not a strong swimmer. Great place, overall! Wish we could've stayed longer and had time to visit more than one of the nearby waterfalls! <3
