It is extremely close to the whale shark watching spot. It takes less than 2 minutes on foot. The owner's woman was quite familiar with the tour and gave me a lot of advice. They also planned a tour to Sumiron Island with pick-up and drop-off. Sumiron Island was very beautiful and it was the best experience. I wanted to talk to the hotel about various things in advance, so I wanted to call the hotel, but I was in trouble because the phone number didn't change no matter where I looked. If I go to Oslob again, I would like to stay here. Thank you very much.

Very nice view from the room and bathroom, it’s so close to the sea. If you want to see whalesharks this is a great place because they are 2min away. The staff was very friendly as well!

Great place to stay for one night, especially if your goal is to see the whale sharks. The location is perfect — close to the meeting point and the bus stop, which makes it super convenient if you’re continuing your journey afterward.
There is also a nice waterfall reachable by foot.
The next day, be ready for an early start: wake up around 4:30 am and arrive at the site by 5 am to be among the first groups. You’ll be done by around 7 am, which gives you plenty of time to grab a shower before heading to your next destination.
Personally, I wouldn’t stay longer than a night — the area is mainly about the whale shark experience, and once you’ve done that, there isn’t much else to keep you busy.

The staff are accommodating and friendly. The room is okay but it needs to disinfect because there are little cockroaches in the toilet when it’s dry. The cockroaches are come from the toilet drainage.

The location was excellent, very close to the Oslob whale shark area. Although there was no Wi-Fi signal inside the room, the staff were very friendly.

Very close to the Oslob whale watching & a few decent eateries. The whole street shuts down in the afternoon and only a couple places left to eat for dinner. Room was extremely small, no hot water, hard bed. Fine for 1 night , I suppose. We only slept a few hours and left the next day before out our 2nd night

The owners are a very smiley family. They try to help you with everything you need. The room smells good and is clean.
Located two min walk from the whale shark watching point. We had a room with sea view. There are some local eateries nearby
There are no toiletries and no real shower, just a bucket and a pipe. No hot water.

The room met expectations for the price. It was functional, providing the essentials for a night’s stay. While not overly luxurious, it was reasonably comfortable and clean. The experience was fine overall, though there was nothing particularly memorable about the stay. It’s a decent option for a no-frills visit.
