400 metres from General Luna Beach, Araw Boutique is a recently renovated property located in General Luna and provides air-conditioned rooms with free WiFi and private parking. The 4-star homestay features garden views and is 2.6 km from Malinao Beach. Staff on-site can arrange a shuttle service. Jan was very accommodating with my early check in time and let me leave my bags in the living room as I waited to check in. I originally booked for 4 nights but ended up staying an extra 5. Because the Homestay can only accommodate up to 6 people the place is a lot quieter then other places in siargao. For the price you pay and what you get the value is amazing. Place is cleaned daily and shower also has hot water. A/C in the rooms is also super comfortable. If you have a wise account he can help you withdraw money without the crazy high atm fees. The Homestay is close to everything and easy to walk to scooter rentals around his neighbourhood. He can help with booking transportation to and from the airport as well if needed. Had many amazing conversations with jan during my stay and would definitely recommend booking here if you’re looking for a comfortable bed to stay in during your time in siargao.

Situated within 500 metres of Malinao Beach and 3.9 km of Guyam Island in General Luna, Wayans Siargao Homestay features accommodation with seating area. The property has garden views and is 6.8 km from Naked Island and 33 km from Magpupungko Rock Pools. The accommodation offers a shared kitchen, and luggage storage for guests. This place is perfection. Close to bustle of GL for when you want to experience that, but removed enough to feel peaceful. The staff are amazing; Em was full of tips and suggestions. She was always quick to respond and helpful with anything you might need in Siargao. This was my second trip to Siargao and this spot really exceeded expectations and remains the best place I've stayed at in Siargao. The multiple backup options are also SUPER convenient. I was on a Zoom call with my boss, and the power went out, and it was not noticeable. The wifi still worked, a backup light came on, and the rechargeable fans kept me cool. They are really prepared for everything. The property is exceptionally clean as well. Highly highly recommend.

Set within 25 km of Magpupungko Rock Pools and 31 km of Naked Island, Deja Homestay Siargao offers rooms with air conditioning and a private bathroom in Del Carmen. This property offers access to a balcony and free private parking. Guests can make use of a terrace. Spotlessly clean! The room smell very good. Comfy bed, free toiletries, free refillable water. No moldy smell in the room (which is actually common in tropical areas). Great AC. The shower had a very strong pressure, the best so far we found in the Philippines. Staff extremely welcoming and willing to help. They let us check-in early and we could also stay one hour more after check out time. I can’t recommend this place enough! Don’t hesitate to book this place.
