Great

The location is excellent, right on the island’s main street. The room is clean and comfortable — simple, but with everything you need for a pleasant stay. The staff were incredibly attentive and kind throughout our stay. The restaurant offers good food for a fair price, and the beachfront view is absolutely stunning. The sunset, in particular, is breathtaking — truly, truly beautiful. Overall, it’s a wonderful place to stay and we really enjoyed our experience.

It was alright.

I loved that it was central to most of the entertainment hub in San Juan. The location itself is picturesque.

It's a home away from home.

A lot! Its strategic location in the island and how it's situated at the beach front. The ambience which is very calming and relaxing. The staff including the owner themselves are very helpful and made our stay a little bit more special with how they connect with their guests. These on top of what the island can offer. 🙂

Many thanks to Swakihan team! Above and beyond service excellence. Kudos to the team.

Excellent over-all stay. Staff service is above and beyond, super friendly and accommodating. Ambiance is zen, clean and relaxing with beautiful decors. They have knowledgable guides for your island tour needs. You can also rent motorbikes. 100% Highly-recommended.

Great option in El

The owner of the property will do whatever he can to help. We enjoyed the downstairs shared area and library swap. Rooms are small but well designed with safety boxes, multiple mirrors, hangers, mini fridge and comfortable beds. Location is great- within walking distance to everything… though this was also a downfall in terms of noise.

they were very accomodating with our requests. i asked for more pilllows and they willingly provided us with more. i asked if we can still use the motorbike that we rented the next day to buy boat tickets in siquijor and they let us use it for free. most importantly, my 1 year old had fever and cough and was having an asthma attack and he needed to be nebulized, and they had a nebulizer which they had us use for free! overall, staff were great, friendly, and accomodating. the ambience was nice, and gold was great too! big servings!

Our family had a wonderful stay at Swakihan. The room was spotless and spacious, perfect for our family of three. The staff was always accommodating and helpful, making our stay even more enjoyable. The manager was very hands-on and had an amazing imagination, especially when it comes to the decoration. Every detail was thoughtfully put together, creating a chill and beautiful vibe throughout the place. The outdoor amenities were stunning, with a beachfront view that was incredible from every spot, whether at a regular table, on a sunbed, or up in the treehouse. My favorite part was watching the sunset while listening to live band music, such a perfect way to end the day.
