Hi Jeff! We agree it’s a great place ! Har and I lived there for two months! The owners and the staff are great 😊. Thanks for watching and commenting!!
Very nice job on the video production side. I enjoyed watching. If I could give one tip it would be to try and figure out how to make your audio track end at about the same place as the video track. I think I want to visit Siquijor and the San Juan area after watching this video.
It’s a great place and having automatic back up generator is nice !! A brown out here on Siquijor that might last hours only last 6 seconds then full power and WiFi back up and running !! Let us know once you make the move and enjoy as much of the Philippines as you can !!!
@@tomandharpresents I certainly will. I am coming for a visit in Aug then a full move in Dec or Jan. Got to sell my Ranch here (which I have a great lead now so very soon) then a few bowling tourneys with my friends that are paid for already in Sept and rap of a few other personal things then I am there.
Yes David it’s a very nice place ! Having the full back up generator is a big plus not having to deal with all the brown outs that happen here in the Philippines. Also I think there are many people like me who want to travel and experience many different places before making a decision on where the perfect place to settle down is and not being tied down to a year lease resort hopping is a good inexpensive option!! Can I live for less in an apartment or house with a lease? Yes for sure but I won’t have the freedom to move around and really explore the beauty of the Philippines !! Siquijor is on top of my list for now !!!
We have been here a couple months and next month we will try a new location. We are enjoying traveling and seeing new places but Siquijor and negros oriental are our favorite islands so far ! Thanks for watching and your comment!!
Thanks for watching and for the question! Food is very good and great quality and nice size portions. Prices not bad a little higher than some places here on the island but still can get a good meal and drinks for between 300 - 700 pho. If you want a great USDA grade steak 🥩 expect to pay premium American price but ours was big enough for 3 meals !!
35k php includes everything. That’s monthly we didn’t ask about yearly lease but you can go to their fb page and send them a message! Thanks for watching!!
You state in the description things included in the cost such as internet, air conditioning, ho water...and then write "Electric is extra." I'm confused. Nice video, however. Thank you.
I’m sorry electric is on separate meter and not included in the 35k. I thought I had said that in the video but it must have gotten cut in editing. Costs of bungalow includes free water, smart tv with cable HBO and Cinimax and sports if interested, ceiling fans, ac and hot water , rice cooker, coffee maker, 2 burner stove , refrigerator and all pots pans silverware and dishes. Also something I forgot to mention was the resort has automatically activated back up generator so never have to worry about brown outs ! WiFi is separate to each unit so not sharing with others keeps high speed up for downloading or uploading which is very nice !! I’m sorry for the confusion and I hope you will subscribe and keep watching ! Let me know if you have other questions. Thanks Tom
35k php or 630.00 usd not including electric however units are very energy efficient so not much added costs but we only run ac at night ! Thanks for watching!
@@michaelc9274 sorry I was not sure until now the electric bill was 121kwh @15 = 1815php (June 20-July 23) so very reasonable!! Thanks for watching and your comment
I’ve stayed there. Professional staff, clean rooms, and good food! Best place on the island
Hi Jeff! We agree it’s a great place ! Har and I lived there for two months! The owners and the staff are great 😊. Thanks for watching and commenting!!
This looks great--I'll have to check it out when I visit this island during my first visit to the Philippines in 2024 when I retire.
I’m sure you will like it !! Hope to see you when you are here !
