Hotels near Candijay

I really enjoyed staying at this place, the owners and their kids are so cute! Even the dog is cute! New building, simple but stylish room, very large terrace with 4 chairs, balcony on the other side of the room, shared bathroom only for 2 rooms, so it's not a bother. The hostess gives cups, plates, you can use the kettle. There is a good beach with clear water, it's literally a 5-minute walk along a nice street, a good food court with great prices is 7 minutes away. This location was perfect for me, I went everywhere: beaches and caves of the Andes, a waterfall and a cold stream, a lake camp in the mountains. I highly recommend Tsada Balay. I would gladly come back to them again. Thanks for great hospitality.

Iniitially, there was a mistake with the booking, and we were taken to a smaller, more basic room than what I had booked. However the owner was very apologetic and kindly allowed us to stay in one of his houses instead. We were given access to a large two storey house by the main road. I was impressed by this generous response to a booking issue. Thank you Fernando, Adela and Felix, for helping make our stay so comfortable.

The ambiance. The pool. The privacy. The calm. 1min walking from white beach. Breakfast includes home made peanut butter and home made bread, which makes all the difference. Room is spacious, well designed and all is extremely clean. And every bungalow have its own porch which is great to sit around and relax in the evening with one of the cocktail they make. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Overall great attention to details made us extend our stay. Best place we stayed in Philippines in our 30 days vacation.

Everything is brand new and the mattress is super comfortable. I really liked my stay there. It's so calm and great to relax but also well located to explore this part of the island. The view from the terrace, where I had the best Filipino breakfast ever, is incredible.

Beautiful home from home and we all loved it. Peaceful location near beach and lovely food at restaurant on our doorstep. Wonderful friendly staff and organised a private tour of island attractions too

Pretty much everything. from location, to views, to the excellent service that their staff provided, even to the other guests that were fun to talk to. Their food at the restaurant was also great, I operate a Bed and Breakfast in another part of the island so my standards are high, but i had absolutely nothing to complain about at this property, which is rare. I highly recommend staying here if you prefer to stay at a more private and intimate resort rather than the crowded and loud resorts at Panglao.

It felt like home, the property was quiet, well looked after and we were treated like family. The staff were exceptional and referred to us by name. Thank you J&R and staff.

We stayed 4 nights in a beach view cottage and 3 in the beach front cottage, so I will review each separately during this review We arrived after a long journey from the UK and a 2.5 hour drive from the ferry very tired, but we were greeted by such friendly staff, a fresh coconut juice and a cold flannel, so we instantly felt refreshed and and so welcome. The view as you walk through the restaurant to the pool area, with the white sand, blue sea and palm trees is just beautiful - feels like walking into paradise. Beng able to see amazing sunsets to the right of the beach and sunrise to the left, was incredible. Food was very tasty, there was good choice and it was very reasonable, considering you were in a resort. It is a small and intimate resort and rooms are large, clean with good shower and aircon. The wifi system works well in the room, restaurant & pool area. We stayed in a beach view room for the first 4 days as that was all that was available. They were absolutely fine and very similar in style to the beach front ones, just set back a bit further, so you can see the sea from outside, but not hear the waves and watch the view from inside the room. Beach front rooms weren’t available immediately, so we changed halfway through our stay - well worth it. These beach front rooms have full glass sliding doors so you have a full sea view even from inside the room and can hear the waves lapping on the sand. There are a few other things minor touches in the beach front rooms that aren’t in the ones further back, so if you can, it’s worth the extra money, we’ll, we thought so anyway. Anda as an area is very quiet and resort based, last orders in the restaurant is at 9pm, so if you’re looking for a party atmosphere, this isn’t the place, you’d be better off at Alona Beach in Panglao!! There is however a town, maybe 25/30 mins along the beach, that is very accessible and a tuktuk return is only php150 each way.

It’s very peaceful, ambience is so good as the surrounding have many plants and spacious. Between the mini houses is a good parking spot so u don’t have to worry about carrying ur stuffs in distances. The house location is slightly far from the road and from the property bar so there’s not much noise pollution. And the cats are in good health and friendly (drawn to boys than girls or just us hahaha~) The caretaker/receptionist is very accommodating and helpful to our needs, prolly one of the best I ever experienced (super thank you for making our stay comfortable and answered our inquiries with no hesitations 🫶) Wished we could’ve taken more photos to promote it or post it on gmaps or their facebook page but I hope this review will help them to be known more or be chosen to be booked hehe

Lovely new family owned hotel / mini resort. Very clean and modern accomondation with nice pool. The owners are willing to help you in everything you need. I recommend to rent a scooter from them (very reasonable pricing) because you will get so much more from Anda and surrounding areas if you have a scooter. And it's very easy to drive and traffic is very light.
