I only slept one night, before continuing my trip to Siquijor Island. The place is very beautiful, wooded and the rooms are very clean and organized, the bed is capsule style and the mattress is very comfortable.

I had a lovely stay here! All the staff go above and beyond and are so genuinely kind and helpful. The food was great and the rooms and facilities were super clean. The dorm was really affordable and the fan made it really comfortable. The diving was amazing, all the guides are great at spotting things and I had some super chill, fun dives. They went out of their way to show me a bunch of different sites. Definitely some of my favourite diving in the Philippines! All the equipment was well maintained and I felt super safe. Would return here if I come back to Dauin.

Sharky Hostel is the best place to stay at if you want to do the whale shark tour. The owners get up at 4am to wait in line to reserve a spot for you and wake you up at 5am when it is time to do the tour. They make sure to be the first boat in the water, which is what you want, since it gets super crowded later. On top of this “Nana” the 70 year old owner is very sweet and extremely helpful with ferry bookings, organizing taxis and giving recommendations. This hostel is very basi but has everything you need. I would always stay there again!

We are happy with everything. Cha-cha is very nice, and her husband is a great singer 😆 there is everything you need for life for a very low price. There is a kitchen and recreation areas. The house is very beautiful. the room was small, but we only slept there, there is a lot of space on the territory for spending time.

Okay my opinion is a biased, but this was the best place from the whole Philippines. And not just because I’ve met people there with whom I traveled almost for the rest of the Philippines. Also you won’t find hosts like Erwin that often.

Great employees, the environment although not on the main road is calm and relaxing. Good beaches and restaurants nearby. They can help with laundry and get renting a motorcycle. The banana pancake can fill you up for the morning.

All hostels in Dumaguete

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

I booked one night in the dorm and one night in a private en-suite. The dorm was very good, with lots of safe storage space under the bed, and more space at bed level to have my luggage. There was even a rack to hang a towel or fabric for some privacy. No issues with mosquitoes in the dorm, probably because it has AC and a fan. I loved the style of the hostel. Bed was very comfy. Breakfast in the cafe next door was very nice. Close to lots of nice restaurants. Staff was useful. Would love to stay there again.

I liked the whole vibe and aesthetic of the hostel. I stayed in the bunk beds and it was okay. They put me in a 6 bed instead of the 10 bed because the AC in the room was broken. It may be better if there was a curtain for each bunk for privacy. There's a little storage, lamp and power socket for each bed. The restaurant is great! I didn't have the chance to try the food but I did try their coffee and pastry (which is 40% after 6PM) and it was really good! I highly recommend the restaurant for it.
