Family hotels and homes in Oslob

These guys are simply magicians. Everyone comes there mainly for the sharks, and thanks to them we managed to get on the first boat. As a result, we were the very first ones to reach the sharks. I don’t know how they do it, but they do it really well. Everything else was very pleasant too: the staff were friendly and always ready to help. Special thanks to Jomar for his excellent communication skills with clients. 👍

The property was very central and close to the market and 7-11. The staff was super nice and helpful. They even made me a breakfast item that wasn’t on their options. Love the staff

great sea side resort - dinning on the water - direct ocean access - breakfast options were great, Nice hot shower / internet worked great - easy to access local activities (whale sharks - waterfall) Direct access to the bus - north or south.

Friendly n helpful staff, beautiful location and so clean n comfortable.

I like that they have gate for the car. Felt safe. Love the slide pointing to the beach.

The staff were excellent friendly and kind. The location is absolutely amazing!

Great hotel with large curved wooden staircase. Great bed AC works perfect. Nice location. Next house you can rent motorbike.

This resort is just gorgeous. The rooms we stayed in were brand new and we loved sitting out watching the moon over the ocean at the end of the night. It was smaller than I expected, but perfect for us.

We loved the location, the size of the room and the view, how close it was walking to the Oslob whale watching and of course the people! Joyce and Shannon were amazing and shared so many suggestions on activities and transportation and even local pan de sal.

It was a great experience seems like in a paradise.

Staying at Emoha was so far our best experience while travelling in the Philippines. From the first step into the property we felt at ease. The resort is beautifully designed, clean, quiet, as it’s away from the main road and safe. All the facilities are well maintained, organized and well taken care of, starting from the floor of the resort up to the roof which to me looked like engineer’s masterpiece. Rooms are very specious with a big balcony and amazing view, quiet AC, comfortable bed, clean bathroom with strong water pressure and abundance of hot water, drinking water was available at the water station downstairs. Resort has a swimming pool, hammocks and you can also order massage and will be accommodated with massage beds right there in the garden with soothing sea breeze. During our stay we visited Oslob Whale Shark watching point which is 20 minutes drive away and Aguinid Falls, we went snorkelling every day and couldn’t get enough of it! Special thanks to our gracious host Lottie who welcomed us, Rafael resort's diving instructor who shared about great coral reef wonders which were just a step away from the resort, helpful and smiling girls and wonderful chef who amazed us with her cooking skills. In the future we would definitely like to stay at Emoha and can recommend it to someone who’s looking for a comfortable stay with great style.

Was there only to spend the night before going to see whale sharks and then to Moalboal sardine run. Can recommend this itinerary to anyone, certainly beats getting up at 3 AM to get from Cebu. Property satisfied all our requirements: nice, big room, quiet and effective air conditioner (same model as in my home), hot water running without issues, soft, comfortable beds (memory foam but it's fine), quiet location (heard only soothing sounds of the ocean). We slept very well. Didn't visit the beach or turn on the TV so can't comment on that. Owners are very nice people and they can organize excursions to whale shark watching / sardine run. However, a bit of advice: in reality the only thing you need is transportation. The activities themselves are very well organized and you don't need to book ahead (it's not even possible) - just show up early enough to avoid waiting for hours. We arrived at whale shark site at 6 AM and got #127 in the queue, we waited for 1.5 hours for our turn but it didn't feel like a long time at all, since there are places to eat and drink coffee, souvenir shops, etc. Anyway, the only thing you need is some way to get to these places, so you can book a taxi yourself, it's not hard, or hotel owners can do that for you, they quoted us the following taxi prices: 5000 PHP to get to Cebu or 3500 PHP to return to the hotel (this includes drive to the whale sharks, then to Moalboal, then to Cebu or hotel). We decided to rent a car from Cebu airport for 1 day instead (drive to Oslob, sleep in this hotel, then the same itinerary), it costed us 2900 PHP (2000 for car + 900 for 3 hours late return, you might avoid the latter) and worked beautifully. Do mind that driving in the Philippines is crazy, but for me it was fun.

The employees are all so accommodating. There are many great properties All over the world but the employees make them exceptional! Great Job Kalumo ❤️

It was a very comfortable stay. Around 700m away from Whale Shark Watching site. We walked to get there. We like the room we stayed, it was good for the price we paid.

I had a wonderful stay here and would highly recommend this place to anyone visiting the area. The owner was incredibly kind, accommodating, and even gave us the best room available, which made our stay even more enjoyable. The Wi-Fi connection was fast and stable, making it easy to work remotely without any interruptions. The location is excellent. It is close to the port going to Panglao, as well as popular tourist attractions like the Ruins and the historic church. The neighborhood is quiet, peaceful, and feels very safe. It's a great area for morning runs or evening walks. There are also plenty of nearby establishments, making it convenient to buy essentials or dine out. If you need transportation, the host can also connect you with a reliable driver to take you to different tourist destinations. The price was even better than we expected, offering excellent value for money considering the quality of the accommodation, the convenient location, and the outstanding hospitality. Overall, it was a comfortable, convenient, and enjoyable stay. I would definitely choose to stay here again.

The staff are great. The place is cozy

Delicious breakfast in a perfect location

The house was very nicely located with a beautiful pool and view.

10/10 really like this place, good affordable breakfast, rocky beach in the backyard, nice pool and big rooms. very quiet too

Newly-built, clean and comfortable resort with awesome staff and an attached SSI-dive center HOTEL: The room was clean, the air condition new and comfortable (low sound!) and the bed very relaxing. The shower/bathroom was spacious with hot water and quite strong water pressure. The kitchen staff forced my scale to surrender with their delicios skills! .... :D DIVE CENTER: The dive equipment was in very good condition. The experienced dive guide(s) as well as the boat crew were very lovely and always helpful (not to mention: very supportive). It was an absolute awesome stay for me - at the end at a reasonable price tag considering the quality and the received services. Thank you again guys!
