Everything was amazing like other people wrote before! The place is 5min walking from an amazing snorkeling spot. Turtles, millions of sardines, and zero people there before 8am, also no fees (the entry is from Cebu Fun Divers resort)! So I extended my stay for 1 more week for this reason😀

Great location, friendly staff, walking distance to a non-tourist beach with only a few locals, also close to many shops and a short drive to White Beach. Love the self-service coffee in the morning and tours you can book directly from the hostel. I highly recommend Kawasan Falls. Clean bathroom and shower, great common area with a nice mural on the wall to enhance the beach vibes

“Great social atmosphere, friendly staff and perfect for a relaxed island stay.”
I stayed at MOMO Hostel for the second time, which already says a lot. The atmosphere is very relaxed and social, making it easy to meet other travelers and just enjoy the island vibe. The design is simple but stylish, with a nice tropical feel that fits perfectly with Moalboal. The staff is friendly and helpful, always making sure you feel welcome. Overall, it’s a great place if you’re looking for a laid-back, social stay with good energy and a nice community feeling.

“Facilities were perfect”
The beds were comfortable, love the pod style. The aircon kept it cool at all times, showers and bathrooms were abundant, staff were absolutely lovely and so helpful (especially Dalia who remembers everyone). They stayed up late to let me into the property (even though this is against their policy, I really appreciated it). They all remembered my name and made me feel so welcome. Felt so clean. So good to have x2 pillows. Free coffee and water was a luxury after many other that haven’t offered it. Felt really safe and like you were a guest of the family. Free towel at check in. Literally exceeded all my expectations

“Little gem 💎”
Excellent couple of days at this lovely place. Clean and homely with free water and coffee and really reasonable snacks/drinks for sale via an honesty box. Located away from the noise but only a 20 min walk to the Main Street. Hot shower available if preferred and comfortable, spacious beds. The staff are also amazing and Momo and Dalia and the lads were so helpful and friendly. Recommended some great places too. Relaxing and chilled vibe was the order of the day made even better by the gorgeous dogs, cats and new kitties! Thanks for a lovely stay.

Hostel with one piece theme. Quite well planned but lacks hot water shower in several bathrooms. Beds are comfortable with privacy curtains and charging points. They can help with motorcycle rental. They have nice place to hangout.

“Great place for a few night in Moalboal, loved the people here!”
Really kind people and easy to meet new people in this hostel. Vibe was top and they helped you out with everything. Room was cleaned often and shared spaces were clean as well. It is a 15 minute walk to the center of the village and scooter rental is just across the street!
