Oslob Hotels with Wifi

"Beautiful hotel. There's a small pool, but we didn't use it. There's no beach; access to the sea is through a gate and down concrete stairs. During our stay, the access was closed due to strong waves. Breakfast was modest but decent. The room is small, for 3 people. There are 2 pillows per person. Soap, shampoo, and a toothbrush are provided. There was a damp smell from the sink, and the entrance to the bathroom was small. It's 50 pesos by Tuktuk to Oslob town center. To the whale sharks, it's 30-40 minutes and 300 pesos. An intercity bus passes by on the street, which is very convenient if you need to go to Moalboal or Cebu."

"Our family stayed at this hotel for 5 days at the end of March and we were very happy with our experience. It's a very quiet and cozy hotel right on the ocean, with a fantastic view from the dining area. Our room was small, but the beds and mattresses were comfortable. There was always hot water. The room windows faced a shared corridor, but this wasn't an issue for us; we enjoyed the sea views from the common area while sipping on complimentary coffee or a glass of rum. The dining area is equipped with dishes (plates, mugs, cutlery) and a refrigerator where you can store food and drinks, plus ice is always available in the freezer for beverages. There's no stovetop for cooking, but you can order takeout from a nearby restaurant through the hotel, or bring your own food. You can also rent a motorbike at the hotel for 500 pesos per day. The owners are incredibly warm and helpful people, always ready to assist. Upon arrival, they arranged our airport transfer from Cebu for 5000 pesos. They also organized tours for us to see whale sharks (1000 pesos/person for the ticket), Sumilon Island (500 pesos/person), and Tumalog Falls (6 pesos/person for the ticket, plus 500 pesos/person for transportation). We were very pleased with the tours and the guidance, a big thank you to Baby, the hotel owner, for organizing everything. We decided to visit Moalboal independently, which turned out to be quite easy. The bus stop is located next to a 7/11 store; just wait for a light green bus and take it to the final stop, Bato Terminal (60 pesos per person). From there, transfer to another bus heading to Moalboal (138 pesos per person). Once in Moalboal, take a tricycle to the beach. We used D'Greco Hotel as a landmark; it's right on a beach where you don't need to pay to swim with sardines and turtles – you just walk into the water, swim out to the reefs, and enjoy. The tricycle ride to the hotel cost us 200 pesos for three people. Before entering the coastal area, there's a tourist fee of 25 pesos per person. Near our hotel, there's a tour desk where we booked a canyoneering trip to Kawasan Falls, and it was unforgettable! It cost 1900 pesos per person and included lunch. Overall, we loved it. Returning to Ocean View Lodging House in Oslob felt like coming home. The owners were happy to see us back. The next day, we were scheduled to go to Panglao, and Baby, the owner, booked our ferry tickets for us. All in all, our impressions of the hotel and its owners are overwhelmingly positive. An excellent hotel for an excellent price."

"Из плюсов, возможно это самое приличное место в Ослобе. Есть бассейн, бар. В остальном есть странности, описание номера не соответствует, например холодильника нет, хотя он указан в описании (с тапочками то же самое), чайник есть, но нет ни чая, ни кофе. В номере нет полотенец для душа, только для рук и для бассейна, на ресепшн сказали так и надо. Есть балкон но нет никакой мебели, вытащили пластиковый стул из номера, попросили второй, дали. С балкона вид на забор, у которого заботливо сложен мусор (номер 137), левее сушат белье и полотенца на солнце. Услуги прачечной есть за доп.плату, что логично, но сушка также на солнце, если идёт дождь, чистым и сухим быть, без шансов. Сушилка на балконе прибита под внешним блоком кондиционера, поэтому с него все льется на ваши вещи. В целом номер чистый, есть горячая вода, и на пару ночей нормально, ради акул, но учитывая все вышеперечисленное стоимость завышена. Попросили вызвать такси до места с акулами (10км), сказали заранее вызывать не нужно, приедет в течение 5-10 минут как будем готовы, стоимость 1800 песо (адская цена!), но боялись опоздать, согласились, в итоге ни через 10, ни через 40 минут машины не было, пришлось переносить бронирование на следующий день, стоимость трицикла, кстати, составила 400 песо на двоих туда обратно, имейте ввиду. Приятного отдыха!"

"The island was beautiful and we really loved the place. However, I was disappointed with the drone policy. Even though I already had a permit, drone flying was only allowed in one specific area, which did not feel safe because it was surrounded by water. It would be better to provide safer and more flexible flying locations for visitors with approved permits."

"The thing about the stairs need to be taken into consideration because it's A LOT of stairs. I really thought that people were exaggerating but it's almost a wall of China! completely worth it since you are down. Beautiful ocean! Full of turtles. and super comfy room. Best pillow in the whole Philippines. I was just upset because some guests were puting their music really loud on the common area, this is so disrespectful with others.. you can sleep with the sea sound and listen to the sea during the day unless people make you listen to Justin Bieber and pop USA music super loud.. the staff also listen to loud videos on their phone. .. so when I complained it was really hard for them to take some action and ask the other guests to put their volume down... The sun chairs are super comfy but only some of them are in the shade under a tree.. some umbrellas could be provided."

"The location is excellent, not far from where they take you to see the whale sharks. The hotel provides round-trip transfers, but you can also walk about 500 meters in 10 minutes, though it's along the road. The price for the whale shark tour from the hotel with transfer is 1000 pesos; without transfer, it's 500 pesos per person if you book on site. The rooms are spartan, with nothing but a bed and a table. There's a water heater in the shower, but it doesn't quite do its job. However, for 3,000 rubles, if you just came to see the whale sharks, spend a night, and leave, it's perfectly justifiable. The hotel has a restaurant where you can grab a bite, and nearby there's a pier with boats that can take you to a small, opposite island with white coral sand. This hotel is really just for a 1-2 night stay."

"Nice, cheap place to stay. Right on the water and has a decent pool with bar and restaurant. About 15 minutes away from whale shark area. Only complaint is that the WiFi isn’t great... went in and out of service entire stay"

"We rented a bungalow house. It turns out to be a very small house, there is only a bed and two shelves. That is, there is no space at all. There was a fan in the house, but it was a little stuffy for me. The toilet is shared. There is no shower, there is a shared washbasin. They don’t have a cafe, we rode a tricycle to a cafe a little further away. The owner was hospitable and tried to help. Wi-Fi is free and good. There is access to the water, but swimming is not very convenient, there is no beach, only rocks. Also, at the same time, other people in a large group came to this hotel with us. They sang karaoke loudly and walked until the morning. And in the morning they turned on loud music. That is, if you want silence, then decide for yourself. The house is not soundproofed."

"Excellent value for money for a hotel in the Philippines. We stayed for 3 days to see the sharks. The staff helped us with an excursion and even provided a guide, which was super convenient. The guy helped us with everything. Thanks to the hotel! Also, the food was delicious and the breakfasts at the hotel restaurant were very filling."
