This is our second stay at The Beach House on Carabao Island.

We were fortunate enough to meet the owner again on our second visit and discuss the local attributes of the Island and the wonderful people here. If you'...
Me and my boyfriend went to have 1 week vacation w/ 3 destinations, Bora-Carabao-Romblon(footprints). All of these places are beautiful, but what made this resort special are the owners. Ange & Owen are really nice, accommodating & approachable, they made sure that we have everything we need, treating us like a guest in their home & not as a guest in their resort. It ...
Initially booked for 1 night stay only but we extended for another night, and we definitely made the right choice. In Romblon Fun Divers you'll have everything you need from wifi, cable, clean rooms, hot shower even the staff are all friendly :) We also rented their motorbike which is very helpful should you wish to tour the whole town proper. The hotel is near everyth...
This resort is really good. Everything is perfect including the owner. He assisted me all throughout our travel in Romblon and Sibuyan. The only main concern is, the employers/server of this resort is unprofessional and don't know how to attend customers needs properly. I think they need to adopt the customer level skills of Kuya Edgar. Once they already have it, ever...
Our 3-night stay at Blue Sea Star was one of the best experiences we've ever had on a trip. There are only two cottages at the resort, and ours had a fantastic view of the sea and sunset. Cynthia, our very warm and accomodating host, went the extra mile when our flight was cancelled at the last minute; she was able to book ferry tickets for us for the next day. She ...
We had a great 3 nights here. The resort is right on the beach and perfect spot to watch the sunset from. The room was spacious and clean with a really good shower, a comfortable bed and 2 balconies, one of which had a sea view. The restaurant area looks out on the sea and had lovely freshly prepared food throughout the day. A nice touch were the board games that could...
It's far from the main attractions in Romblon but if you're the type who needs to relax from the crowd, i would recommend this place.
We stayed for 1 week in a 4 bed dorm. Rooms are easy furnished and very clean and you get a batterie for the fan, because you've only in the evening electricity. Best thing: it's allowed to use the kitchen. Only a few min walk to small shops. Carabao Island is the the opposite to Boracay. It's quiet and a easy way of life. The locals are so lovely and relaxed. We lov...
The place is an hour away from the port of odiongan. And the only way to get there is by tricycle which cost 500 pesos. The place is in front of a very clean and clear beach with a very beautiful spot for sunset. Peter and Uwe are very nice and friendly people. Including the staff who always prepares our food. This is a place where you can relax and feel that you are ...
Great place, great food, great people
Our group booked Morel's Private Island Resort for our stay in Romblon as the ASEAN Holiday in Metro Manila was taking place. We did not expect the serenity we experienced here, with the simplicity of living in a remote province and away from the toxicity of the city. Mr. Mark Morel, the owner, is so hospitable to guests. He personally took charge of our requests. His ...
I had a very pleasant 2 night stay at the Dream Paradise. Though the facility is particularly geared to large groups, as a solo traveler, the owner and her staff went out of their way to make sure the I had a nice stay. The staff really were terrific and a real pleasure to deal with. The facility itself is very large with terrific views over the rice fields and love...
They have a separate cafe that provides quality angus beef burgers or premium food. You can have a good meal here or for those shoestring travellers, a local food shop is within a stone throw away. The port that gets you to this lodge is within walking distance. Staff will assist you with bike rentals and suggested activities. Overall, I had pleasant experience here ...
Marlin Bar Restaurant and Accommodation is just 3 kilometers from the Romblon Port (around 10 minutes tricycle ride). Although the place has no good beachfront, the Bonbon beach is just a ten minute walk from Marlin Bar and the beachfront and sandbar is spectacular (be sure to book your trip during a low-tide season). The place only has 2 rooms, one has his own toilet ...
It was our first time on the island and didn't know anything aside from reviews from other people. This place is great if you want to get away from the noise, pollution and crowded city. Ateng bantay was so nice and accommodating. She even toured us to Binucot beach riding on motorcycles. Her cooking was awesome too. Just request for any meal and pay once you're about ...
It’s not difficult to get to Tablas. Just book with Cebu Pacific and get picked up by the resort from the airport — easy! Drive to the resort is about an hour and 15mins. There’s so much to see so it’s not going to be a boring ride. The resort is what it is in the photos. It’s quiet and the water is serene and clear. The restaurant and bar offers a wide range of choic...
This is a great hideaway for divers and snorkelers. Luc and his family and the resort staff went over and above to make sure we were comfortable and happy. They cooked amazing food for us! This island is loaded with fireants so stay in the dagat (ocean). Expect to buy food from the resort. Highly recommend this place.
We had a great stay at this hotel in Romblon. The staff were super helpful especially armand, apple and all the servers at the restaurant. The managers were also there to accommodate us. Our room was also upgraded to the cliff villa. There was a bit of inconsistency with the food but considering that it was their soft opening, it was totally excusable. We had free b...

Discovering the Hidden Charms of Romblon
Romblon, a picturesque island province in the Philippines, is a hidden gem waiting to be explored. With its pristine beaches, crystal-clear waters, and lush landscapes, it's a paradise for both adventure seekers and those looking to unwind. The island is often overshadowed by more popular destinations, making it a perfect getaway for travelers who crave a unique experience away from the crowds. Whether you're a beach bum, a history buff, or an outdoor enthusiast, Romblon has something special to offer.
One of the island’s most captivating features is its stunning coastline. Picture yourself lounging on powdery white sands, surrounded by swaying palm trees and the soothing sound of waves lapping at the shore. Beaches like Bonbon Beach and Tiamban Beach are must-visit spots, where you can soak up the sun or take a refreshing dip in the turquoise waters. For the more adventurous, island hopping is a popular activity, allowing you to explore neighboring islets and discover hidden lagoons and snorkeling spots teeming with marine life.
Beyond the beaches, Romblon boasts a rich cultural heritage that is deeply rooted in its history. The island is known for its marble, which has been a significant part of its economy and culture for centuries. Visitors can explore the quaint town of Romblon, where charming streets are lined with local shops selling exquisite marble crafts. Engaging with the friendly locals, who are eager to share stories of their traditions and customs, adds an authentic touch to your visit. Romblon is not just about relaxation; it’s about immersing yourself in a vibrant culture that celebrates its heritage.
Unveiling the Best Time to Experience Romblon
Timing your visit to Romblon can significantly enhance your experience on the island. The best time to explore is during the dry season, typically from November to April, when the weather is sunny and ideal for beach activities. During these months, travelers can enjoy clear skies and calm seas, perfect for swimming, snorkeling, and island hopping. The peak tourist season occurs around Christmas and Holy Week, so if you prefer a quieter experience, consider visiting in the shoulder months of May or November.
In addition to favorable weather, Romblon hosts several local festivals that showcase its rich culture and traditions. One of the most notable is the “Biniray Festival,” celebrated in January, where vibrant street dancing and colorful parades fill the streets. Participating in these festivities allows travelers to experience the island’s community spirit and enjoy local delicacies. By planning your trip around these events, you not only enjoy the natural beauty of Romblon but also gain insight into its cultural fabric.
For those who enjoy a cooler climate, visiting in the months of January and February may be ideal, as temperatures are milder.

Essential Travel Tips for Your Romblon Adventure
Before setting off on your Romblon adventure, a few travel tips can help ensure a smooth and enjoyable trip. First and foremost, familiarize yourself with local customs and etiquette. The island is home to a warm and welcoming community, and showing respect for their traditions goes a long way. Simple gestures like greeting locals with a smile or using basic Filipino phrases such as “Salamat” (thank you) can enhance your interactions.
Currency exchange is another important aspect to consider. While some establishments may accept credit cards, it’s advisable to carry cash, especially when visiting local markets or smaller shops. ATMs are available in the main town, but having cash on hand for transactions can save you from any inconveniences. Additionally, be mindful of health and safety; pack any necessary medications, stay hydrated, and apply sunscreen generously while enjoying the outdoors.
Language barriers might arise, but many locals speak basic English, particularly in tourist areas. Learning a few key phrases in Filipino can enrich your experience and endear you to the locals.
