Nipaville Haven is a small eco-garden retreat in Moalboal, offering a calm and relaxed stay surrounded by greenery. The property is designed for guests who enjoy slow living, comfort, and a peaceful atmosphere rather than nightlife.
All stays include a complimentary breakfast, freshly prepared each morning using local ingredients when available. Guests can enjoy shared garden spaces and relaxed social moments. Karaoke is available in the early evening until 10:00 pm only, after which quiet hours are observed.
Nipaville Haven is a non-party property, well-suited for couples, solo travellers, digital nomads, families, and small groups who value respect, nature, and restful nights.
Hi, I’m Jouke — a retired engineer and entrepreneur now building a peaceful, eco-friendly sanctuary in Moalboal with my wife, Elvira.
We love hosting travellers, digital nomads, and adventure seekers.
Cleanliness, comfort, and warm hospitality are at the heart of our place.
We live on-site, garden, and continually improve the space to create a relaxing island-style home for guests.
Nipaville Haven sits in a peaceful part of Moalboal, offering guests a quiet retreat surrounded by greenery while still being close to the town’s main conveniences.
Just a short ride away is Gaisano Grand Mall, where visitors can find groceries, cafés, ATMs, and essential services. The Moalboal bus stop is nearby, making travel around Cebu easy and affordable.
Guests also have quick access to the dry and wet markets, perfect for experiencing local produce, seafood, and everyday Filipino life.
Moalboal is known for some of Cebu’s most iconic attractions. Panagsama Beach is home to the world-famous sardine run, where millions of sardines swim close to shore.
Pescador Island, just a boat ride away, offers incredible snorkelling, diving, and chances to see sea turtles.
For sun and relaxation, White Beach provides clear waters and soft sand.
Adventure-seekers can head to Kawasan Falls, canyoneering routes, and scenic mountain viewpoints.
Despite being tucked away from the busy tourist areas, Nipaville Haven is close enough for guests to enjoy all activities with ease, while returning to a quiet, safe, and relaxing environment at the end of the day.
