Vacation rentals in Carles

I would describe my stay on North Gigantes island as “full immersion” into local life on a small tropical island. If you are looking for “European style” accommodations, this is probably not a good place for you. But if you want an authentic experience of being together with local family, joining them for meals and conversation, and, most importantly, exploring beautiful islands, you should definitely come here. Jofel manages this guesthouse from Manila, and his local cohosts, Sam and Hemmie, will take care of you. The house is right in front of the ocean and on a small beach. But for a very small fee, you can also hire local boatsmen and go around for “island hoping,” checking out other beaches/lagoons/islands. North Gigantes has an abundance of seafood, and Hemmie can prepare for you excellent home style meals. And I also recommend to talk with her about local life: Hemmie is a teacher in a local school and can tell you many interesting stories. Bottom line: BIG THANKS for my stay.

Marvellously friendly people on a very enchanting island x

Per-Erick and Auntie Delma are great hosts because they made sure that we are safe going to their place by fetching us in bus terminal. They provided beyond service for my family that I never expected. Their place is very good for a day tour in Sicogon island and can accomodate group of people. Excellent porch for coffee time!Thank you for a great place!

Affordable place. Accessible and near the port. Staff and owner were very accommodating and friendly. I appreciate how she booked our Gigantes Island tour and offered us a ride to the restaurant for my birthday dinner. Simple and decent place. Worth the price.

Annie was very responsive and assisted us in booking our Islas de Gigantes tour. We're supposed to stay in the Barkadahan cottage but had to change room due to paint. We arrived very early at 9:30 am but they let us check in already. The room we stayed at was clean. May konting unpleasant smell lang sa cr but tolerable. The resort was peaceful and really a great place to relax. The food tasted great too and Kuya Jun was very accommodating. Great service overall!

We had a great stay at this place! For those of you planning to visit this place, don’t give it a second thought. The experience you will have on Jairo’s Nest is definitely worthwhile. The place feels so secured and it is so peaceful and quite. Recommended to those who seek serenity, and who wants to unwind away from the buzzling city life. Everything that you need is here except for one thing - FOOD. Please bring your own food. They have all the amenities of a typical house and a fully functioning kitchen so you can cook there. The caretaker is also very approachable. We’ll definitely come back soon 😀

Everything is good. However, there’s different food choices to choice from everyday… Staffs are all polite and helpful. We’ll definitely come back and recommend this place!

If you want a quiet place to stay, we recommend this place for you, we rented the 3rd floor and it has an amazing view, it has everything you need, big terrace, a kitchen, big bed and a washer. Plus Danny is a helpful and a very nice guy. Thank you to our host, we had a wonderful time, maybe we come back again in the future 😊.
