Aurora Province hotels & places to stay

I was satisfied with my stay in Costa Pacifica. The rates are very reasonable as it meets your standards. I felt so relaxed that makes me wanna go back as soon as possible. Their food is awesome! Favorites( Four cheese pizza, baby back ribs, nachos & of course, Baler's Best!!! (Which I drank everyday of my stay in Costa). I love the bed, very comfortable white sheets. The best part of my stay, is the staff. They are so accommodating and nice. Actually, not only them but the most people I've encountered in Baler, Aurora. They're nice and respectful. I just have a few requests/suggestions: - Maybe you can extend the pool and make it deeper for the enjoyment of adults. Especially, if we just want to chill in the pool area. - I suggest to add more staff outside the beach house and put them in the pool area. So, we can easily order food. - Make the hotel a bit lively at the same time relaxing. - Keep it up!

We've always wanted to visit Aurora, since it's the only province in Luzon we haven't gone to. We had the chance to go this weekend, and our choice of L'Sirene was as close to perfect as it can get. We wanted a place that wasn't too crowded, with a good ocean view, and friendly staff. We got all those. The bonus was the food. Everything we ordered was simply delicious, and very reasonably priced! We never had to leave the resort to look for a place to eat. Unfortunately we could just stay overnight, but we will be back for an extended stay in the future!

I have been to baler twice now. We booked at this hotel in a rush (we were already otw to baler). Upon arriving early, they allowed us to stay and rest to one of their room, but encouraged us to wait for another hour so that we can avail of the room upstairs with a balcony facing the ocean. We were not disappointed. the room was veeeeeeeery clean. I have been to a lot of hotels both local and international and I can say that this was one of the cleanest I have been to. It's as if you were the very first guest in a brand new hotel. We have ab AC in our room but who needs it when the wind freely blows from the ocean straight to your room. They even have a personal electric kettle for boiling water (which is really a good thing for me compared to most hotels were you need to go out of you room to get a hot water ) The best thing about our stay here is the staff. Believe me when I say that they are very very accomodating and friendly. They even have a guide complete with suggested itinerary, tourist spots, restaurants, time/schedule or each and entrance fee infos. I found this very helpful since a lot of the items indicated here were not found online. the only reason I gave 4 stars for the facilities is because they dont have phone in their room and the parking is limited. But this is actually not an issue since the caretaker is only downstairs and there will always be a parking slot nearby. Will definitely be back here again!

I do not understand why people always tend to complain on what they got during their stay you should learn on how to like things the way it was given to u learn how to adjust on what u have and be productive on how to make it better. Not enough trash bins - yes it is not enough but u can use ur used plastic bags as an added trashbin in the room. No hot water - u paid for not so expensive room why would u expect that they will have a complete facility? Then bring ur own water heater to make your shower temp hot. Soft pillow-they are letting u use total of 8 pillow bahala kn how to make it comfy The area is just near Sabang beach tryc will only cost u P15 per head. It is near the public market you can cook your own meal with an added gas usage which is fair enough. You can even use their kitchen utensils for cooking and eating. If you do not feel to cook u can even eat out to the nearest restau, they do have this famous eat all u can place for P199 and it is also near the hotel.

The day before I check out. 10PM at night, I was seriously sick, the owner drive me to hospital and waited their for me to do all the test, it was pouring by that time, and when I felt better, she sent her families to pick me up from the hospital back to the hotel again. By the time it was almost 1:30 in the morning and it was bucketing down. Thanks for everything you guys have done. A great family. BTW, food there is good, i actually only left the hotel when I was surfing. The hotel is just by the sea, ez access to the beach.

Aura Marina is highly recommended for those who enjoy a serene and relaxing vacation. It is far from the town proper, but the comfort offered by the hotel is worth it. In fact, we stayed in the hotel most of the time. After witnessing a crowded Sabang Beach is, I was really glad we booked Aura Marina. It is also near some of the other interesting sights like the Diguisit Rock Formations, Dicasalarin Cove, and Lighthouse Baler. The food is fantastic. Their Kaya toast and Laksa are the best I have tried in the Phil.

My booking was supposed to be for group of friends, who cancelled at the last minute for various personal reasons. I was thinking of cancelling the booking but instead went ahead with the family instead. The place was more than what we actually expected and the staff were accommodating and managed all our inquiries. We were also in a nice location, walking distance to places where we want to be.

Enjoyed our short stay at Cave Beach Resort. Definitely the best accommodation in Dingalan. Clean rooms and surroundings with good complimentary breakfast. The resort is located very near the local street side market where one can purchase fresh seafood. What makes this place special are owners Terry and Lea who were very friendly and made sure all our concerns were attended to. Highly recommended!

the place will give you the feeling of not wanting to go back to manila. that 2nights stay gave me the best vacation-feels i could ever have. i don't know if it was meant to be, but during our stay the place was less crowded due to an upcoming typhoon which made the people cancel their bookings. and unfortunately, there was really no typhoon, rain or whatsoever. it was just all windy on the first day, so we did an enjoyable hostel bumming and siesta which is equivalently worthit with going out to the beach. then the next day was a perfect weather and goodwaves so we're able to surf as well and roam around the foodhouses! the hostel is just across the beach, a few walks that i promise wouldn't even matter. it was actually good because you're far from the maincrowd of the beachfront. the hotel staff are great, as well as little dindin the cute sunshine smiling kid. the hostel is very clean and well maintained even the cr. there's no power socket on the rooms so you dont have a choice but to charge in the common area and get along with others if you really wanted a power on your battery haha and i think that was the brightest idea ever in this hostel. if you want to cook, everything you need is in their kitchen. one last thing that made circle hostels unique is that you get the chance to create, leave an art or a message for everyone to see :]

We booked this hotel in a hurry as it was 2-3 days before the holy week and we found this hotel which was clean and was not very far of the tourist spots like the tanauan falls and the umiray falls. The rooms were clean, spacious while the comfort room could have been better if the shower had a divider for the water as the whole comfort room floor was wet when you take a shower. The owners which were filipino and danish hence the hotel name Fil-Dane Inn, were very friendly and the staff too were very friendly too! The restaurant-bar is only open on saturdays,but the food was great and the restaurant which could have looked liked a garage was cool as the ambience and design of the restaurant was spot on for a provincial restaurant. Overall I would give it a 4/5 stars. Cheers to the owners!

The staff was very accomodating. If you're not part of a tour group then they can help you with arrangements like transpo, tours of your own, surfing instructor, etc. It's not beachfront, but the beach is only a 5-minute walk away. It also has a well-equipped kitchen if you're planning to cook in and save money. The accommodation is suitable. With aircon and fan. The toilet is big enough. Has hot water, free towels. They even have a clothes rack with hangers for your wet clothes. I found that very convenient. All in all, value for your money.

Zach transients house. Icalled ms.myline tolentino and she's very accomodating.irecomend Zach transient house because it's clean n near the beach u can walk anytime u want to surf. We are five n msmyline did not charge additional to us only what we pay to agoda. If u are planning to-go to baler look for Zach transient house it's worth ur 💰 for abudget traveller like us. She recomend day tour also for alow price and for that we thank kuya Raymond for being kind n patient to us. Surely we will come back to baler because the people there is tourist friendly even to budget tourist like us. HoRay to baler until nxt time

Almost booked Costa Pacifica but decided to try and save some a lot of money on a "less" expensive place. We probably had a lot way "more" fun and got four nights stay for price of one! Of course, rooms were smaller BUT we really, really enjoyed our stay. Owners Jenny and Chang were excellent. They even cooked us a fabulous meal (which we brought home from wet market). The location, midway from street to beach, was very quiet, yet just 2 minutes shaded walk to check out the surf. After a day on beach, the guesthouse outdoor wash off area was nice to have and access to washing machine made for easy laundry cleaning. Ask Jenny or Chang to introduce you to their brother and surf instructor. Also, local guide named Marlin was great asset to help us navigate our way up to "Mother Falls" (probably best in country) and other local sites. NOTE: the style of rooms is designed for small groups of surfers or friends/family that want to use them for sleeping and hitting the beach (not hanging out). While a yet to be built second floor promises some "couples" rooms, to date, all rooms currently have bunk beds. As a couple, we moved a mattress to the floor. This used up all the floor space. However, either of two larger rooms would allow multiple mattresses to be place on floor and still give walking around room.

Excellent Staff! Most of the staff were from the local village, not professional hotelier but very kind, friendly, responsible and helpful. They took good care of us. We were up graded from the duplex to the hotel building with water heater in the bathroom. Still the room are basic, but the bed comfortable and AC work well and very CLEAN. The ground we'll maintain and the infinity pool also we'll maintain, life guard on duty from 7am to 7pm. The beach was clean, not white sand but my kids have fun. Not many guest and the evening was very peaceful, I love best the balcony, with a good mug of coffee (I brought my own coffee maker and coffee), the sound of the wave, the ocean breeze, very relaxing at night. Morning sun with song from the birds around, just a great way to wake up! The menu at their coffee shop limited but actually the food tast good. Now, the worst part was getting in and out of that place, long drive and some rough road, but if you love driving and with a good car, the drive, the curve, the view, the challenge was excellent and light traffic at Baler Casiguran Rd.

We travel almost 1 and half hour from Baler Public Market to the resort. Yes, super nakakapagod. Tric cost 300 pesos. But when we finally reach our destination. I can definitely say, that the place will be worth it to stay for 3d2n. We brought enough foods and water. They do not have resto kasi when we stayed. But the owners will allow you to cook anytime. This place is for those people who want peaceful, relaxing and quiet vacation. Hindi to pwede sa MAARTE and sanay sa hotels. Super okay mag stay sa tree house, nakaka relax yung sounds ng wave. Fresh air, good environment. Sakto lang ang pools for chilling. Super accomodating din yung owners ng farm. Lahat ng needs namin na utensils for cooking supply nila. The best yung place to stay lalo na pag stress ka sa work.

Rushies Point became Russians Point for two weeks for us and another couple from Russia :) Hosts family was really kind and accommodating. Homer gave me to use his surfboard for free. For me was a new experience playing together with Filipino musicians on stage of Rushies Point bar. Homer also proved a wonderful cook, he prepared the best I ever eat vegetarian burgers, when my girlfriend said that she is tired of meat dishes :) I advise everyone who is going to visit Baler, stay in this lovely hotel.

I booked House B for our group of 10 for 3D/2N. It had 4 rooms and 2 t/b. -The staff were very accommodating, house was ready and clean when we got there. They allowed us to check-in early and check-out late. -I was really surprised that the house was that big. -House has all the amenities in the kitchen (fridge, stove, kitchen utensils except a microwave) and we were able to cook our meals everyday. -The house was also just walking distance to the beach and also just a short trike ride away from the bars. -Parking space was a little narrow for big vehicles (we accidentally scratched our pick-up while backing up). -I just didn't like that the curtains they had in the rooms were sheer. You could see right through the room from outside. All in all, I am recommending this place for groups of 10 or more. Oh,and make sure to order their refreshing buko shake. :)

It was a very pleasant experience. The owners (Tita Myra and her hubby) are VERY accommodating, nice, and eager to please. They live right next door, and are quick to assist. The upkeep of the house was excellent. The interiors felt a lot like your grandparents' house, but this adds charm to the place on its own way. The shared bathroom is no issue: there are two bathrooms--one upstairs and one near the kitchen. The kitchenette and small dining area were also thoughtfully included in the offer. They didn't charge us extra to use the gas for boiling water (other inns wouldn't bat an eyelash in charging us P150 for that). There was a ref available, but we didn't ask anymore about it since we always eat out anyways. We were pretty nervous about the Ordinary Room, but to our pleasant surprise, it was really cozy. The room had two windows plus it's near the balcony. As it was December when we visited, the lack of AC was definitely NOT an issue. The room was cool--we even had to use our blankets! Hangers were made available to us, as well as TWO outlets to charge our devices. (Which we weren't able to take advantage of--I forgot to bring a charger, argh!) I think the room could definitely use a trash can, though. The place is just a few minutes walk away from the rolling stores, the Museo de Baler, Sabang Beach, the tricycles, and the town center. Not many tricycle drivers know the place yet. Should you choose to stay here (please do, it's great!), just tell them it's the transient house near the Fellowship Church where Tita Myra and her hubby are pastors. All in all, it's definitely a great choice to stay in Baler. P.S.: be sure to check out the Aurora photo coffee book beside their log book in the receiving area. Great treasure trove of stuff to know about the province!

The apartment is spacious but is not worth the price that we paid. It is not well maintained, and the aircon in the masters bedroom was not cooling fast enough. The doorknob of the main door was not working properly. We were could not open and it took the caretaker some time to finally open it. It is not recommended if you do not have your own car as it is a bit far from the downtown plaza and from the beach. The only good thing is that you can cook, and the caretaker lives right in front of the apartment where they can attend to your needs in quick turn-around. Manong Gerry, the tour guide is super nice as he is the best tourist guide I have met. He assisted us beyond our expectations.
