It was nice but far from the city
4.2
Great place to enjoy our honeymoon. It’s quite, safe and easy access to the Ruins and Paradise Beach. It’s far from Santa Fe Port though but we rented out motorbikes to explore around the area. The property is clean but could do better. The hairdryer was broken but they gave us replacement right away which is nice.
The staffs are friendly. I just wished they offer more drink options (alcohol) they have wines but pricey. Overall, we like the place and would love to come back.

The room is noted 24 square meters, it's wrong, the room is 12 square meters only the aircon is really noisy, there is no black curtains, so its bright all night due to the light outside.

Great location for a family vacation.

They should treat there customer in friendly way. Woman who works there are so unfriendly and can't even smile at you.
Plus I paid too much extra because if you have family to come visit you, You have to pay 200 pesos entrance and if your family going swimming its 500 pesos just ridiculous.....And too much noise because they have construction going on. Even my daughter doesn't want to stay another night. That's how horrible the place is. Not a good experience. we didn't enjoy at all. just horrible experience.
4.2
Could be an amazing resort if a restaurant and bar would be installed. In fact necessary because this resort is very isolated. Staff was not very friendly.
4.2
If you want to relax, this is the best place to stay! Awesome view and property!
4.2
The staff could make the general service better. Not clean towels every day, no cleaning after the first night. Place of the resort is wonderfull. Good breakfast. Hot water in shower did not work very well because of unequal waterpressure.

The property and its location is great as long as you are conscious of exactly where it's located and how distant it is from Santa Fe - the main tourist center in Bantayan where all of the restaurants are; it is a solid 20 minute bike ride away. On the upside however is the privacy. It's in a very secluded part of Bantayan; so if privacy and tranquility are your priorities - and pretty much all of the beach areas of Bantayan are quiet and relaxing - then this Kandugyap won't disappoint.
My only complaint is that I felt a bit deceived by the established and whether it was intentional or not is uncertain, however essentially I booked their 2 floor villa/house for 6 people for $80 only to discover upon arrival that that rate is for only 2 guests which is absurd because who would book a 2 floor giant home for only 2 guests? And thus, we were asked to pay an additional $200 (10k pesos) for accommodate for the 6 guest vacancy. I'm not sure if this is a genuine marketing blunder by Kandugyap or Expedia, however nonetheless common sense in my mind says nobody books a giant 2-floor home for just 2 people.
And lastly, there were little to no toiletries in the shower and restroom. For the price paid and other resorts available in Bantayan that offer similar sized villas for a similar price - such as Coral Blue - I felt a little bit of neglect on the staff's end towards the guests. They weren't rude or anything, but again when the price reaches a certain threshold, expectations rise.

This is our second stay at Kandugyap, the place is awesome! The staff are always very courteous and treat their customers well. While the facility is slightly outside of Sante Fe proper, it is a quiet retreat that is close enough to go into town on a Saturday night to kick up your heels!

We stayed in the villa for 7 days and had a fantastic week.What a place!!! Like a privat house. Nice pool, beautiful little beach, sunbeds and seating areas. All though the villa had a kitchen you were not suposed to use it bc not many kitchen equipments.... The staff was always ready to support you in any way and was very helpful. Thank you!

It was indeed amazing! Best vacation by far. If you’re looking for a quiet, peaceful and relaxing place to stay, Kandugyap House by the Sea will give you that tranquility. A very instargam worthy resort. Even their breakfast! And plus points for their service.

I don’t usually write reviews, nor do I wish to write a negative one, but I feel like I have to warn other people.
Me and the gf we’re on vacation and decided to pay a little extra for a nicer place. When we got there, we discovered a run-down little place at the middle of an awful dirt road. I would have no problems with either of that, if the rest wasn’t so bad.
The room itself was wall-to-wall with the reception, and it was not sound proofed at all. I had been looking forward to spending some quality time with the gf, but even if they had soundproofed the walls so that everyone else didn’t hear you, the bed was very hard and uncomfortable.
The water pressure is non-existent. The shower was a dribble and the toilet wouldn’t flush. We were given a bucket and told to use that to flush.
There were also plenty of ants on the floor inside, and when we told the owners we didn’t wanna stay and that we’d pay for the first night even if we didn’t sleep there, they refused to refund us for the other nights. They wouldn’t even let us take a soft drink from the minibar.
We transferred to another nearby resort, Ogdong cave, and had the time of our lives.
Stay away from this resort! There are plenty of cheaper or equally priced alternatives on Bantayan that are much better!

Not what I expected. The weather was a factor though. It was too windy and the water condition was rough. I bet the entire stay would have been great if the weather was good. The place is really nice, you'll have a sense of privacy. The staff were great, helpful and accommodating. If you want to be off-the-grid, this is the place to be.

We had a great time at Kandugyap! We initially wanted to book for 2 days but it was already fully booked the next day. Our one day there was well-spent. We love that the location is far from the crowd and we get to spend the whole place almost to ourselves. The place is great for couples and families. Glad that there are also nearby restaurants. Would definitely stay here again when we go back to Bantayan.
4.2
Well, it was very good to swim both in the sea and pool. There were just 3 rooms so it was very private. I can recommend this hotel if you just wanna enjoy swimming, but if you want a good service, I will not recommend. The staffs were not accommodating and they seemed kind of annoyed whenever we asked them for sth. Plus, the room was quite small, there were no toothbrush and there were a lot of ants, which I hated the most However, I really enjoyed staying there bc I was able to swim and do snorkeling for long and it was totally private
4.2
Great service and off the grid. They helped us rent a scooter and also provided shuttle service to get around to most places (eg. island hopping, cave resort). The staff were friendly and even shopped at the market and cooked us lunch at a minimal cost. The pool was nice and refreshing and lots of seating to hang out. Steps to their small beach and the snorkelling there was nice.
4.2
Wonderful staff, very nice family feeling, even the owner were so nice.. 👍

we haven't got any conformation from the hotel so we end up paying the port fee and vehicle when we arrived at the port it should have been free. They told us about the process when we already arrived at the reception

It's my second time in Bantayan Island and Kandugyap House by the Sea is the perfect place to stay. Perfect place for staycation. Room price is affordable and worth it. The owner and staff were accomodating and readily available to our needs. Best part is, free drinking water.

It's a very very charming little cliff property tucked away off the beaten path. It is away from the busy side of Sta. Fe. The place was quite perfect for us, since my husband is not into crowds, knowing Bantayan to be a haven for tourists esp in summer. It's a little piece of Santorini in Bantayan. Their beach line is short, but it's very very private. There are only 2 double rooms and 1 villa in this resort, but because it's new, it was very nice and vibrant. When we were there, there were only 5 of us. The staff was very accommodating. The only cons are, other than the breakfast meals and some chips (doritos, ruffles), there was nothing else to eat there, which was a bit of a struggle when we had our baby with us. There was also power outage for a few hours. You can buy food from the local market and ask for the staff to cook them for you at a nominal fee. For a small fee, they can take you to and fro to the center Sta. Fe. The staff are really there for your every beck and call. I hope they will get a standby generator, even if this is only for fans and to charge our devices. We'll be back soon with the rest of our family. Thanks, Kandungyap, for the short but very memorable time!
