Overall stay was pretty convenient. It's a few steps from the beach, but make sure to be dropped off on site if you can, because it ruined my suitcase from being dragged from the parking area to the hotel and back. The pool could use a bit of thorough cleaning, but we still enjoyed it. We stayed in a family room, and it was very comfortable for a pax of 8. We will stay again.

Great value, right on the beach, in center of Alona Beach, the band (Frank and Birdwatchers big band) plays best rock & roll I have heard in a very long time, great selection of beer at best price. I've stayed at B&D Bluestone, and South Beach Bohol hotels, but keep coming back to Birdwatchers, great staff and fun place to stay. Highly recommend.

This was a great stay - property is basic but great value for the money. You get on-beach access and it doesn't get better than that. Rooms had a comfy bed, working air con, decent wifi and very helpful staff. For what we paid, it was great value. Don't expect up-market resort facilities, but the price is also not up-market. I would happily stay here again

The place is right on the beach at the less busy end of the beach. The food is fantastic. Staff is great. It's more like a beach house setting then a fancy hotel setting and thats exactly what I wanted! The price was half what the fancier hotel's charged and worth every cent! The room had a Kitchen and we cooked. One of the best experiences in my 40 days in the islands!

Great Location!

Nice place! Big comfy and clean rooms. Shower wasn't that good but the bathroom was spacious and clean. NO BREAKFAST AVAILABLE! Despite the breakfast menu being in the room. Bring your own instant coffee as a boiler is in room. The pool is small and good for kids.

Please read before reservation

PLEASE READ THIS REVIEW! 1. Please check check-in, out time. There will be NO staff 2. There's a rock band playing stage at the first floor. And they are playing until 11~12PM, and it's really loud so you might not have a rest. 3. Water, electricity sometimes don't work 4. It's currently expanding, and construction point is right next to your room Staff are kind, though.

Excellent service. Lady owner was really hard working. She can be seen sweeping the ground, cooking, selling food or doing laundry. Owners are also kind to animal. Dogs and cats were well fed and you’ll never see them begging for food. It’s also a popular karaoke bar at night by the open bar

So the room itself was great. Spacious for 2 adults and two kids. Hot shower. Location is on the beach. But that’s where the good ended For the price I expected an actual hotel. Actual service of some kind. Cleanliness. What we got was a pool that hadn’t been cleaned in a very long time. Algae growing. Lots of things in water. And then all of the local kids use it for their own pool so right by our room, lots of screaming and yelling from seriously, 20 local kids. Then the street vendors set up right by the pool and drink and eat. Literally blocking our entrance to our room. Between 2-8 people at a time. This isn’t a hotel. It’s a locals hangout spot. The manager, an Australian I believe, just walks around and drinks. The band plays late so you can’t sleep so when you wake up early to go diving, you’ll be exhausted. On top of that they are doing construction on things so lots of noise. Their ads don’t mention that. It could be a totally great place on the beach. But it’s very far from it. And especially NOT for the price. Do yourself a favor and stay somewhere else!!!!

We gave this accommodation two stars. The only positive was its beachfront location. However, if you’re looking for a restful night, this is not the place for you. There’s a bar right below the rooms with live music until 1 or 2 AM, and in the morning, construction noise starts early. We booked for three people but were given just one double bed and a very thin, uncomfortable mattress as an extra. Overall, not a great experience.
