The family that owns the hotel are lovely and very welcoming. They helped with finding tourist information and gave us a very nice herbal tea when we arrived. They stayed chatty and easy-going throughout our stay and were always on hand to help. We actually stayed an extra night 👍🏼

The apartment is family friendly. It's great that they've provided bunk beds in the other room to accomodate more family members. The wifi connection is fast. The caretaker is friendly and prompt in responding to our needs.

It felt less like a business and more like a family. When traveling, it's often hard to find a solid community where you can easily make friends and connect with others. La Tortue did just that.

Sharky Hostel is the best place to stay at if you want to do the whale shark tour. The owners get up at 4am to wait in line to reserve a spot for you and wake you up at 5am when it is time to do the tour. They make sure to be the first boat in the water, which is what you want, since it gets super crowded later. On top of this “Nana” the 70 year old owner is very sweet and extremely helpful with ferry bookings, organizing taxis and giving recommendations. This hostel is very basi but has everything you need. I would always stay there again!

All hostels in Dumaguete

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    I booked one night in the dorm and one night in a private en-suite. The dorm was very good, with lots of safe storage space under the bed, and more space at bed level to have my luggage. There was even a rack to hang a towel or fabric for some privacy. No issues with mosquitoes in the dorm, probably because it has AC and a fan. I loved the style of the hostel. Bed was very comfy. Breakfast in the cafe next door was very nice. Close to lots of nice restaurants. Staff was useful. Would love to stay there again.

    I liked the whole vibe and aesthetic of the hostel. I stayed in the bunk beds and it was okay. They put me in a 6 bed instead of the 10 bed because the AC in the room was broken. It may be better if there was a curtain for each bunk for privacy. There's a little storage, lamp and power socket for each bed. The restaurant is great! I didn't have the chance to try the food but I did try their coffee and pastry (which is 40% after 6PM) and it was really good! I highly recommend the restaurant for it.
