The only downside is there isn't a lot of public transportation on the island so either rent a motorbike from them for 400 pesos or plan on paying a bit more for a tricycle ride than normal. The host will arrange a ride for you if needed. We made it work for our adventures and then for food we just walked a few minutes down the road to some small stores or to Pariso cave which has a cafe. DJs only cooks from like 8 to 11am so after that you are on your own to find some food. Still a great place!

Great place for couples to relax take in the island vibe and chill at the beach. The host is very kind and helpful even when the island has a power outage he ran a generator for fans and water. They cook a good breakfast as well!

Apart from the occasional brown-out all was as or better than expected,

Excellent cooked breakfast choices offered along with great coffee and fruit options. The owners could not have been more friendly and helpful during our stay, offering scooters for rent and advice on where to go and what to see. Also arranged pick-up & drop-off to the seaport. Located in peaceful and natural surroundings. Would happily return again. Thank you David & Juvey for the warm welcome and relaxing stay.

Leaving :(

WOW! this was one of the best places we have ever stayed. Dave was so welcoming, attentive, informative and fun and we had an absolute blast. We felt well cared for, he picked us up and dropped us at the port and talked us through all the best places on the island. We will definitely be coming back to the Camotes- we were very sad to miss Juvy.

Be aware that the location is not at a beach, bit you can easily walk into the sea for a swim in clear waters or enjoy watching the sunset. There is no restaurant for lunch/dinner, which means you have to plan your meals elsewhere or take your own food.

The personal touch of David and Juvy makes this a special place. They help you to get to know the right spots on the islands and to get around, with Britisch-Philippino swag. Since it's a nice but bit secluded location, I strongly advice to have your own wheels (which you can rent at the resort), driving around the islands is a lot of fun. The breakfast is brilliant and the coffee carefully calibrated by David. The rooms are well build and the outside bathroom is a nice feature. We stayed here for 6 nights and enjoyed everyone of them.

David met us at the port, told us about the island and their place. He is extremely friendly and caring! So is his wife Juvy. David's staff also includes 4 lovely dogs! The place was clean and well-kept, the yard is green and paradise-like. Even the sand that was blown away by the typhoon from the beach is already returning. Although there is no restaurant on site, David can give you good suggestions and even give you a ride to the restaurant if needed. There is a lot of choice for breakfast! Scooters are for rent in good price.

Amazing host, they come to pick you up, they show you around and introduce you to the life of the island. The rooms are better than in the pictures. Unfortunately the beach has been shored away lately, but the view of the sea from the garden is nice. I stayed longer than 10 days at the end. You need a scooter or a car, as for today they don’t have a restaurant service. But the breakfast and coffee are really good.

This place is the best. This felt like a home from home and David is a fantastic host. Made sure we had everything we needed, gave us all the tips for the island. Picked us up and dropped off at the port. Lovely accommodation and a beach front complete with hammocks! A great breakfast as well. For the price this is the best all round value we have found in months

Lovely huts, wonderful sunset and great team

Not recommended if you can't drive a motorcycle as it's quite remote. I don't know how to drive a motorbike but Juvy was kind enough to take me around even if it's not usually part of their services. But she was considering becoming a certified tour guide. Go for it, Juvy! ☺️

I always check reviews before booking a place. This resort had an excellent score and now I know why. Dave and Juvy are wonderful hosts. Dave will pick you up from the port and will take you there again when your stay has ended. The all-day breakfast is yummy and filling. They gave us fresh fruits from their place. They had lots of animals so it's like living on a farm by the beach. When people are kind to animals, you know they're good people. Thanks for a lovely stay and will definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a place in Camotes.

Bit far from the main town bit with the scooter it's quite a pleasant drive anyway

David is a great host, came pick me up at the ferry and allowed me for an early check in. The facilities are great, lovely room just a few steps from the sea, the open air shower in the ensuite room is a great touch to immerse yourself in the greenery of the resort. Super easy to rent a scooter to explore the island.

I like the nature vibes and tranquility of the place. The owners are very welcoming and hospitable. The room and the outdoor bathroom is just what I was looking for a relax vacation. I like the place because they have a beach front with a beautiful sunset. They serve great breafast with reasonable price. I will definitely stay again if I have a chance to go back to Camotes Island. Thanks!

One dog in the property barked too much, can be intimidating.

David was very accomodating. He picked us up from the port and sent us off as well! Unique bathroom and interior!

The property is just amazing, the showers in the open air is one of the best experiences I had. The owners were so nice and helping with any of our needs, we enjoyed that so much. The beach area in the evening is just fantastic, full of stars and fireflies. Definitely in the list to visit again

That one day you’ll have to leave and go back to reality.

The location is amazing, the atmosphere is so relaxing you’re not going to want to leave. It absolutely does not disappoint.

facilities were great - the room, bathroom, water pressure, comfortable bed. the location is off the beaten path and offers a garden, beach access, hammocks. fresh eggs from the chickens. very quiet and relaxing stay. Santiago public beach is a tricycle/moto drive away. David and Juvy are very welcoming and nice, they shared birthday cake and homemade kimchi with us. if you want dinner, David has recommendations and you can always pop into town (Consuelo) to get something for takeaway.

I stayed at DJ's Beach Resort with my partner for only three nights, but it felt like at least a week, all thanks to David, our host. David picked us up at the port in the morning as we arrived (9:45 AM), and we could immediately check into our room. The room is so well-designed: very bright, and oh god, we loved the shower! You shower among banana trees and other plants, feeling like you're in an oasis. The room was also very clean, and we were provided with both bath and beach towels. Girls, note that there is no hairdryer in the room, which was never a problem for me as hair dries so quickly here. But I'm sure if you ask David for one, he would find it. Another huge advantage was that David supplied us with a scooter (you need one to travel around). He also gave us amazing tips on where to eat and what to do. We managed to do so much and didn't forget to relax. The breakfast was great - my partner and I were full until the evening. We were also able to find different drinks (alcoholic and non-alcoholic) in the fridge in a common area. A small tip from us: book via AirBnb to get the breakfast for free. Our last day was a bit chaotic, as we almost missed the last ferry from the island, but David rescued us again! Overall, we were very happy with our stay and would definitely come back again. David, thank you for everything! Our experience on the Camotes Islands wouldn't have been the same without you.

Very kind owner, who picked us up from the port and also rented scooters to us. We received a lot of recommendations, including tide times, secret spots to visit etc. The room is surrounded by beautiful nature, beach and friendly animals. Definitely would recommend!

I understand they're working on a dinner menu. This will help a lot.

We had a superb experience staying at DJ's. David and Juvy are the best hosts ever, like ever. A great pleasure to have had their acquaintance. We felt more like part of a family. The place boasts a secluded beach with calm waters. Lovely spot to spend the day and just chill. We couldn't get enough of that DJ breakfast. Delicious! Got me through the day til dinner time no problem. And that barako coffee, wow. We loved DJ's so much we extended our stay. This place is HIGHLY recommended!
