Really nice but if you want to have a quiet time nothing for you ”

Karanacho beach house is a great budget option. Rooms are well equipped and clean. Staff is very friendly and breakfast is really, really great (choose filipino breakfast option with garlic rice!). There are plenty of restaurant options very close and a big supermarket is just across the street. However, if you are sensitive to noise do NOT stay there. It will not be a relaxing, resort-like beach stay. The beach is public (it is with an entry fee, but you still have a lot of people at the property) and you have parties with loud sound and barbecue smoke going on until 2am. If you don't care about this (like me) it's defenitively worth a stay!

At the night, it may be a bit troublesome to the sensitive people as you are hearing a loud music from the bar next to till midnight. The breakfast is small but it was enough for us.

Nice Room, Bad Breakfast, Typical Dirty Mactan Beach”

The room was clean, spacious and equipped with cable tv, ref, and hot shower. The main shower head needs replacing and the glass divider leaks into the toilet floor. Cabinet smells old. Free breakfast is not appetizing, poor-tasting corned beef. Shoreline is combed and cleaned but the beach is the ordinary "dead" beach of Mactan. Oddly, the resort is neighbors with White Sands and JPark Island. So if the other resorts have better beaches, they're fake and same murky seawater. Playground is old and kind of unsafe for young kids. Friendly staff, though. We just stayed here and booked last minute after our island hopping to Olanggo, just to relax for the night. Across the road is a Save More grocery, and beside is a chain of restaurants. Good food is everywhere.

It is easy to exchange money from JYP to PHP. They arranged taxi to the airport early in the morning. And that price was more resonable than the taxi got on the airport got to the hotel.

Overpriced ”

the rooms are new. location is great and i guess this is why they priced it high. however, the receiving staff is not hospitable at all. told her we booked via agoda and gave her my id but she kept asking for my name again and again. upon check-in, she would not give any "advice" on what they offer, just asked someone to bring us to the room. we requested to have the side room since there was no checkins and it was vacant and price was the same, she said we were already assigned a room and would not budge. since i booked another room and wanted to ask if we could upgrade to a room so we can stay close, she didn't know how much to upgrade and asked us to wait. we decided to just stick with the bookings. next day, they served breakfast outside without asking if we wanted it served, no covers and we ate them cold. i wanted to ask if we could buy juices for the kids, they told us to buy from the store which was bare. bought powdered juice and they gave us an old plastic pitcher that was obviously used for their day use guests. NOT VALUE FOR MONEY. THEY SHOULD STAY LIKE THEY WERE BEFORE FOR BUDGET FRIENDLY GUESTS.

Receptionist wanted to charge my 12year old kid since it says on Agoda that kids age from 0-12 stay free. And my kid is already beyond the 0-12 range according to her. Then, she also wanted to charge us because I did not declare that i was bringing a 12 year old when it says on Agoda, as long as it's within the policy to add a non paying guest, I don't have to declare. That was a Very hassle check in to the point I needed to speak to the manager that did not show up. Very dirty place and beach. The room i think was newly renovated but the bed and pillows stink. It was not sanitized in this time of pandemic.
