From the moment we arrived to the hotel we noticed it was way nicer than advertised online. The room felt more like a villa, an absolute dream. The views to the rice fields are spectacular. The best thing about this place is their staff. The guys at the restaurant were absolutely amazing. Special thanks to Gideon and GM, always going above and beyond to make you feel welcome.

Everything was perfect.

Everything was excellent service, the food, the rooms etc. very good value for money. It’s worth noting that it is about 45min / 1 hour from the airport via tuk tuk, but I arrived after midnight and had no issues at all. The hotel arranged it all for me. It’s located on the bigger island not Panglao - but in retrospect it’s all easy to get around. It’s a quieter area. The gardens are lovely and it’s worth doing a sup trip and the bicycle ride to see the local villages. The restaurant had a great menu - the best food I have come across in Bohol. Lots of vegan and veg options, but also good meat options. They also open from 6am and make a good coffee and some great smoothies. Also you can stay there and still do diving etc (just need to account for the drive time) - wish I had done that instead of staying in town for the remainder of my trip. Well done to all those helping run just a great little hotel!

Nothing.

I cannot even begin to express my upmost gratitudes to the service I received from the wonderful staff at this beautiful resort. On my third day I got very sick, to which the staff responded immediately - providing me with local medicine, a full body hot press, and the chef even made me a personalised medicine tea. One member of staff drove to the local pharmacy to get me painkillers. I could not recommend this place enough, from the delicious food (the best we had in the Philippines) to the fun activities that this place provided. The dogs at this accommodation are all adorable and friendly - it was very hard to say goodbye to them! The rooms were beautifully decorated and had everything you needed. I just want to say a massive thank you to the wonderful staff who truly made our stay - you are all exceptional people and I am so grateful for your hospitality. Thank you <3 This place is the perfect place to relax, with the lake only a few seconds away and lovely sun loungers that you can sunbathe on. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone visiting the Philippines!

Nothing it was perfect

Stayed in the Suite Room with a view. The room was very cool even though there was no AC, fan only. Very comfy bed. The jungle themed bathrooms were the best. Everyone was super helpful, nice, and patient. The food is delicious with vegan options. There is a great platform right on the river, perfect for relaxing. Cute Pomeranians running around. Finally, we did the SUP firefly tour. Highly recommend - just be prepared to paddle for an hour.

This is only true with the rooms with the Nipa roof, but things would fall down and bits of stuff ended up on our bed. Feels like sand, but isn't.Just make sure to dust off your bed before you lay down.

This hotel is extremely beautiful, well decorated and with a great view of the river. It is also conveniently located near the main attractions of Bohol (e.g. near the Tarsier sanctuary and Chocolate Hills).

The prices of the tours and transportation offered in the hotel were very overpriced in comparison to others. We would recommend to book them elsewhere.

I love everything about the property, location was quiet and peaceful. The room was clean and very comfortable. The restaurant had amazing menu, had fazzio scooters to rent. Staff were very nice, welcoming and friendly. The surroundings had amazing views in every corner right next to the river, the village next to the resort were friendly and very happy people. They grow their own fresh vegetables in the backyard. I had no issue not having aircon in the room because at night it gets cool with the fan. Overall, I highly recommend this place !!!

Wonderful setting Beautifully designed resort. Excellent food at the restaurant Staff were so friendly and helpful My only complaint ...no air conditioning !! They however bent over backwards for us and supplied us with not 1 but 2 fans!! The organic garden supplies the resturaunt and is wonderful to take a walk through. I'm sure that contributed to the great tasting food! No pool though If so if you want to swim in the river unless you're young and agile it's not easy to get in out of it and sadly I couldn't swim there! Overall highly recommended though

I had an amazing 3d2n stay here in Fox & The Firefly Cottages. The staff from the reception, restaurant, housekeeping, guards (just about everyone) were really nice, helpful, and courteous. I also had a seamless trip to and from Loboc thanks to the transfer service they offered. If you want to get in touch with nature, you must not miss out on this place. Aside from being aesthetically pleasing, my cottage was clean, basic amenities were provided and even went out of their way to even provide sarongs in case you need it when you go have a swim in the Loboc river. Insect repellant were also provided (very essential for someone like me who gets bitten quite often by mosquitoes.) It's something I really appreciate. I also enjoyed the Fireflies SUP on my first night and my morning SUP activity on my last day. Hanging out on the riverdeck was also relaxing. I also had a nice sleep during my stay. Pillows were so soft. I was worried that it might be too hot in the room because it's summer and the cottage didn't have an aircon, but surprisingly it was still cool enough for me to sleep soundly. Special thanks to all the trees surrounding the area. The outdoor bath was also something new for me. Over-all had a wonderful stay. Will definitely go back if I have a chance. Thank you!

The staff were so welcoming. The location was lovely by the river. The outdoor showers were amazing - the best we have had in The Philippines. Comfortable mattresses. The food was very good with many guests coming from other hotels to eat here.

The amount of plastic rubbish in the river and on the road. This really had nothing to do with the property but swimming in the river would not be an option because of all the rubbish pollution. It was quite depressing to see.

This property which sits along the Loboc River in Bohol is one of the most enchanting places we've ever stayed at. Here's what we love: 1. Surrounded by nature, peaceful and picturesque. It gives Bali vibes with a touch of Filipino culture. 2. The top-notch service provided by the accommodating and friendly staff. They offered to clean our room without us even asking and they really made sure we were taken care of. 3. The rooms are spotless and comfortable. We just love our stay here. The rooms are complete with toiletries, water, a firm bed, comfortable pillows, etc. 4. The outdoor shower is to die for! They also have a toilet with bidet. 5. The ultra-fast Internet! Wifi was so strong even in our room, perfect for remote workers like me. 6. They also have a restaurant that serves great food at reasonable prices. 7. They also offer other activities such as yoga, paddle-boarding, biking and tours.

The rooms do not have ACs and have fans only. However, we didn't see this as an inconvenience. I'm wondering how it must feel during summer months.
