Immersion dans la nature gentillesse du personnel et très simple et très bonne cuisine
4.5
La ubicación en mitad de la selva junto al río Loboc es mágica, el pequeño embarcadero junto al río nos enamoro. Las habitaciones a pesar de ser básicas estas bien pensadas. El restaurante muy muy buen, además tuvimos un problema con la moto de alquiler y nos lo solucionaron rápidamente.
Echamos en falta algún tipo de almacenamiento para dejar las maletas en la parte de abajo de la cabaña. Además, de agua caliente, pero obviamente sabíamos donde nos hospedábamos.

El sitio es espectacular, una pequeña cabaña en lo alto, como una casita en el árbol. El río Loboc está a tan solo unos metros del complejo, donde puedes hacer muchas actividades como kayak, paddle surf y una ruta en barco, kayak o paddle surf para ver las luciérnagas de noche. El entorno es idílico, como estás en medio del bosque, hay insectos y bastantes sapos por la noche pero estuvimos muy cómodas y como las camas cuentan con mosquitera, no hay problema con los mosquitos. Por la noche hacia un poco de calor pero utilizando los dos ventiladores que nos proporcionaban pudimos dormir estupendamente. Además, la comida que ofrece el restaurante del complejo está muy bien, cenamos ahí todos los días, no teníamos necesidad de ir a otro lugar para comer en nuestra corta estancia. Pudimos probar dos platos típicos filipinos que se ofrecían en el menú del día, deliciosos.
No hay nada que no nos gustara, simplemente hay que tener en cuenta que al tener que subir y bajar por la escalera para acceder a la habitación, hay que tener cuidado y que no sería adecuado para personas que tengan alguna dificultad en la movilidad. El baño y la ducha están abajo. Solo por poner una pega, los precios de las actividades en el complejo son más caras que las que se ofrecen fuera de él.
4.5
Alojamiento perfecto para relajarse sino fuera por el desastre de organización.
En el momento del check-in pagamos el alquiler de moto y las tasas pero el personal no se organizó bien para llevar las cuentas de la habitación y antes de irnos, nos lo volvieron a cobrar. Cuando les dijimos que ya lo habíamos pagado, no lo recordaban. Al no dar recibo, no teníamos cómo demostrarlo. El hotel en general tiene un gran descontrol respecto al personal, no hay una buena gestión. Además, primero te intentan vender una actividad a un precio y después te cobran de más sin haberlo avisado antes. Mucho cuidado con no pedir factura al pagar algo en este hotel ya que no te dejan pagar hasta el final. No dejéis la cuenta para el final porque os cobrarán cosas que no habéis consumido sólo por engordar la cuenta.
4.5
Cooles Erlebnis mitten im Jungle, man darf keinen Luxus erwarten, weil den bekommt man dort nicht, braucht man auch nicht, man hat alles was man braucht
Eigene Toilette sowie Dusche, es war sauber, wir würden jederzeit wieder kommen
Sehr freundliches Personal
Man braucht auf jeden Fall einen Roller, zu Fuß wenig zu erreichen
Preise für Getränke deutlich teurer als in anderen Restaurants

L’établissement , le lieu , le personnel bienveillant, cuisine très bonne , location de scooter rien à dire.
Pas de gros insectes
Douche froide mais il fait chaud donc pas gênant

Nous avons beaucoup apprécié l’emplacement, dans la forêt au bord de la rivière de Loboc.
Un espace commun où l’on peut se poser sans forcément consommer et où l’on peut ramener nos propres consommations serait un plus.

A peaceful place in the middle of the forest. A perfect balance to the beach. Exceptionally friendly staff. We had great conversations with Raffa 😍 and got a lot of helpful tips. The food was also very tasty and the river is simply magical.

La struttura è completamente immersa nella natura e in perfetta armonia con essa. Presso il water to forest ecolodge si respira aria di pace e di tranquillità. Il giardino e l’accesso privato al fiume sono il suo punto forte. Il personale poi è estremamente cordiale e disponibile. Cucina e servizio bar ottimi!
Premetto che non c’è stato niente che non mi sia piaciuto. Consiglierei però alla struttura di posizionare nel giardino dei lettini/sdraio per poter rilassarsi e prendere il sole in maniera più confortevole.

Top accommodatie op een super mooie plek aan de rivier met een jungle gevoel. De boomhut is fantastisch. Ook heb je eigen hangmatten. De staff is super aardig, je kan er lekker eten (dus je hoeft niet weg) en via de accommodatie kan je tours boeken en scooters huren etc. Echt een van de leukste plekken om te slapen in de Filipijnen.

Stunning place! Beautiful garden full of green. You’re in the jungle next to a beautiful river!
The people were so incredibly friendly and we loved the chat with all the staff!
Food was good and vibe was really relax. There are 3 beautiful tree huts and a dorm. We would recommend the tree hut. It doesn’t have windows or airconditioning but it was a great experience. You’ll definitely make hundred of pictures! Beware that this beautiful place is 45 minute ride to Panglao, so if you just want to be there this might not be the place for you. But pangloa is really touristic but it has a sandy beach.
It’s 45 minute drive from Panglao (beach area). But this part of the island had why more beautiful jungle than the touristy Panglao. Depends on what you want I guess.

Le calme, la gentillesse du personnel, la nourriture, les cocktails.

Fantastische locatie, behulpzaam personeel
4.5
The layout and setting of the accommodation was stunning, amongst the trees and the way the treehouses have been built. So relaxing.
Staff were so lovely and super helpful sorting our scooters for you to explore, which is needed as the treehouses are set right near the river and in a secluded area, which is amazing.
4.5
La quiétude du lieu, le personnel adorable comme tout, une gentillesse incroyable. La nourriture (dîner et petit déjeuner) bonne et copieuse. Foncez pour réserver.
4.5
Bellissimo dormire in mezzo alla foresta con i suoni della natura. Camera spartana come bagno e doccia, ma bellissime e tutto pulito.
Ovviamente si incontreranno insetti e animali.
Possibilità di prenotare tour.
Ottimo cibo, soprattutto i pancake alla mattina!
Staff simpatico e super accogliente.
Si può pagare solo con cash, visto che si è obbligati a mangiare sempre in struttura e si prenotano anche i tour, sarebbe comodo avere anche la possibilità di saldare con la carta.
4.5
Het personeel was geweldig.
zeer behulpzaam en niks was te veel gevraagd. Eten was fantastisch. Lokatie heel mooi langs de rivier. Ze verhuren ook scooters. En organiseren trips.
Zitgedeelte zou wat comfortabeler mogen. Je kon aan 1 tafel of aan de bar zitten op gewone stoelen of krukken. Rest van zitgedeelte was op de grond, lage tafels en kussens.
Slaapgedeelte ziet er goed uit. Alleen zou het net wat prettiger zijn als er onder het matras iets van een plaat hout zou zijn. Nu ligt het op een bamboe vloer. En dat voel je.
4.5
Posizione spettacolare, sul fiume. Palafitte meravigliose. Abbiamo fatto il tour combo sup sul fiume al tramonto e avvistamento notturno delle lucciole, esperienza magnifica.
Prezzi del cibo leggermente cari.

We stayed only one night of the two planned (thanks for a Air Asia 8 hours delayed flight) but it was enough to see the beauty of the place. The cabin is surrounded by the nature in a magnificent environment with quick access to the beautiful river.
Excellent food at the restaurant.
The staff is friendly and informative.
Only drawback is that we found the ladder to access the cabin a little dangerous.
4.5
L endroit était sympa au bout du chemin près de la rivière
Mais le bruit des fêtes la nuit était insupportable jusqu'à 3h du matin. Comme il n y avait pas de fenêtres, c est le principe des maisons philippines pour permettre la ventilation, on n à pas pu dormir le boum boum des basses supplanter le son de la forêt. Le lendemain la fête s est terminée vers minuit. Dommage le resort dans la jungle est trop près des lieux touristiques.

We loved our stay at Water to Forest Eco Lodge! We stayed in the dorms and they are clean, comfortable and private. The staff are lovely! They gave us great recommendations for places to visit on our scooter. The food is soo good. We did the combo firefly and sunset SUP tour with Arnell and had a great time. It was nice to slowly paddle up and down the river and watch the fireflies. I would love to come back next time I am in Bohol!
4.5
Different, but very nice hostel besides the mainstream hostels. Staff is very nice. Very tasty food for a fair price.
I like that they collect all expenses and you pay everything at check out.
The SUP Combo tour was too long for me because the board was quite wobbly. And I felt that the guide took not much care for me when I fell back from the group in the dark. Compared to other tours (e.g. island hopping tours) the price/performance ratio is quite bad. I would recommend to only do the firefly SUP tour.

Me gustó mucho la cabaña. Estuvo lloviendo y no entró agua.
Pues que no me dejaron entrar hasta las 14h en punto a pesar de que seguramente la habitación estaba terminada.

Everything was amazing at this peaceful ecolodge.
The private room is enchanting, the staff is the nicest and the food was so good.
I strongly recommend if you want to chill in a peaceful place with everything to visit close around.

I give this place ten points, I love being close to nature, this bungalow fulfills my fantasy of tropical life, the service is very good, and the decoration maintains nature view maximally. I know there is no air conditioning here but if there is air conditioning I think it will ruin the feeling of the bungalow. because that's what I want, there are mosquito nets in the room, So you won't get bitten by mosquitoes while you sleep.
The service here is very good, they helped me a lot. Hope to stay again, thank you Jaq, Jean,thank you Michel, thank you to all the staff here
I can’t complain about mosquito, because this is part of nature which exactly what I was asking for .
I was in rush in my previous trip. Otherwise I would to try their cooking class:)

The place was very beautiful and we loved being sorrounded by nature and its sounds. Merci and Rafa, two women from the staff were very kind! Thank you for your hospitality!
The bed was terrible. It was small for two and too soft, it was impossible to sleep well. Every night when we went to bed, the sheets were full of tiny bugs and pieces from the hud rooftop easy to avoid, just placing something on the roof over the bed. It could have ben much better if the housekeepers had clean and made the bed. If you changed this, the place for us would be excellent.
We booked 4 nights, and we decided to miss the last night. I hope the comment helps to improve the place.
4.5
The place is as described, and it’s in an amazing position compared to others in the area, but what made a difference, which is not written in the description, was the service and the welcoming from the staff, from the owner to all the lovely girls working there.
Nothing to mention, Everything has been sorted as expected.
4.5
Staff was exceptional, all the food that was served to me was incredibly delicious and fresh, rooms were clean and very quiet, such a peaceful place to stay if you’re looking to unwind and get away from the world!

Amazing place in a beautiful garden!
Dorm has a lot of privacy.
Good vibe and social place.
I was a bit worried not driving a motorbike that it was to remote but its just a short tricycle ride from loboc and the ecolodge is a great place to just relax.
If anything the food and tours where a bit expensive
4.5
Beautiful hidden lodge, perfect to get away from the town and relax. At night you just hear the insects and see many stars, it is so peaceful. Staff is very kind and welcoming. The dorm is good, there is privacy with curtains. The bungalows are very cute and comfortable.
The activities are a bit pricy, I booked the firefly SUP somewhere else because it was a lot cheaper
4.5
The staff were so wonderful, the food was great, all around such a great experience
