We had a good time. Perhaps this wasn't exactly what we had in mind, but folks looking for a down-to-earth, family run establishment where you can grab a drink with the owner anytime will love this place. Homely, warm, not far from the beach. Don't expect fresh pressed linen everyday and 100+ cable channels though! However, the owner and staff... more

A resort allowing you to really experience the Philippines, with a slight touch of "Aussie". Grass thatched huts, aircon or faned rooms, or the backpacker dorms. Cable TV, with a little Aussie bar situated in the middle of the tropical gardens. Only a short walk to the beach, or the main road. This convenience allowing you to just soak up... more

When I first saw the resort in the travellerspoint website, I got really attracted with the pictures because of its natural way of staying in a nipa hut house. And when I arrived there, its really cozy because of the natural style of having a vacation. I mean if someone like me who is really a traveller and had experienced... more

Rose & Steve are the best hosts! We had a wonderful time and would recommend Frendz to anyone! In fact, we will be returning ourselves. The resort is very clean & down to earth. It’s located between station 1 & 2, nearer the market. It is not beach front but who cares, its less than 1 minute to the water... more

Frendz resort is indeed a nice place like all the other former guests describe in other reviews. The thing I liked the most was the secluded setting away from the beach and its noises at night, but very close to ever-present and ever-awake roosters (use earplugs!). Even though I booked a dorm bed at 500 pesos, the friendly staff at... more

This was my second stay at Frendz and it lived up to my expectations, I had a better time which I hadn't thought possible. Steve and Rose are excellent hosts, nothing was too much trouble for them, and they really take an interest in your comfort. Service was excellent, the rooms clean and the surounts neat and tidy. I was... more

I can highly recommend this hotel to those travellers on a budget, I enjoyed the atmosphere of frendz, its very close to the beach yet back enough so you get away from the nosiey beach activites. We stayed in a very nice bungalow, with a verandah which was a big plus. The staff were excellent, and helped with organising our... more

Frendz has got to be one of the most friendly and welcoming places I've ever stayed. Great, traditional accommodation with a lovely bar, serving excellent food - choose from eastern or good honest Ozzie tucker (at very competitive prices). The owner, Steve, goes out of his way to make you feel at home and I felt as though nothing was... more

This was one of my most relaxing stays. Steve and the staff were great and very kind. The rooms were more than spacious. Just a short 3 minute walk to white sand beaches and local establishments. I will be looking forward to visiting this resort once again in the upcoming months. I highly recommend this place to anyone who is... more
