“Perfect! Highly recommended! 10/10”
I loved everything about this place! The owner and staff were incredibly kind, welcoming, and always ready to help. We originally planned to stay for 4 days and 3 nights, but we enjoyed our experience so much that we kept extending our stay until it became a full 10-day vacation. Our trip to Siargao was unforgettable, and staying at Yayay Siargao made it even more special. The atmosphere was warm and friendly, and we felt right at home from the moment we arrived. We even invited some of our new friends over for dinner, creating wonderful memories together. I highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Siargao. If I come back, I would definitely stay here again!

Staff are so nice, clean room, comfortable, good facilities, the location is peaceful compared to general Luna but they offer affordable and quick scooter rental process to get you to general luna because there isn’t many restaurants in the area

Everything. From the staff to the facilities and the location. The manager Heide is so kind and very responsive. she's always smiling and goes out of her way to make you feel at home. I didn't get the names of the other staff but everyone is very friendly. This was my 3rd time staying at yayay, and I will definitely be back.

Amazing staff, so friendly and welcoming, very helpful with everything, like motorcycle rental, booking tours etc. Located a couple of kilometers from General Luna, it’s nice and quiet and the beach is just around the corner. Good cooking facilities and a fridge in the room I highly recommend it 😃

“Best homestay”
2 weeks here. Can’t describe how much I loved this place. I felt like home , the ladies are so kind and nice , the room was amazing (I’m backpacking but a friend came to visit me and we shared a room) , hot shower , aircon, fridge and small kitchen . The ladies clean the room every 3 nights !! 🌸 10 mins by bike from GL , you’re just 1min away from the famous skate road. 🛹 I already miss this place ❤️

Excellent stay at Yayay Homestay in Siargao. Very warm welcome and helpful hosts — they assisted us with airport transfers and scooter rental. The place is spacious, quiet, clean, bright, and very well located. Everything was perfect, highly recommended.

“Enjoyable stay with the family❤️”
The rooms are very comfy, the location of the place itself are kinda few minutes away from the centre of Siargao but since we liked it that way, away from noise so it was good. Also, we did use the kitchen. Very accessible if you are trying to save money from eating outside. In each room has its own rice cooker and everything to use for staying. Very recommendable place. The staff were also welcoming and helpful.

“Nice surrounding and away from busy general luna”
Staff were very nice and helpful, easy to agree on things and very friendly. The place is spacious, kitchen is big and enough for cooking. The area is very calm and local and quiet. Away from the crazy General Luna but yet close, 10min by motorbike. They have a generator so that’s helpful when working remotely.
