Siquijor Stays You’ll Love | Beachfront Calm & Hilltop Serenity
Looking for where to stay in Siquijor?
This peaceful island is best experienced slowly—and that starts with where you sleep.
Whether you want to wake up by the sea or enjoy the golden hue on a hill, these two dreamy stays offer more than just a bed.
They invite you to slow down, unplug, and savor the moment.

Or swaying in a hammock with the view of Apo Island stretching into the distance.
Here’s a closer look at where we stayed—and why they’re among the best places to stay in Siquijor.
Casa Juan Del Barrio
Where the ocean greets you at your doorstep
book via official website or Airbnb
We booked this stay during peak season.
Most beachfront rooms were already taken, and we didn’t expect much.
But Casa Juan turned out to be a beautiful surprise.
Right by the sea, peaceful, and full of heart.
Sunset by the Sanctuary
This stay is located right in front of Maite Marine Sanctuary.
Step out your door, and you’re in the sea.
On our first evening, we sat back on the beach loungers,
watching the sun melt into the sea.
The ocean was still, the light was golden, and everything felt… quiet.
That kind of quiet that stays with you.
A Simple Stay, Rich in Feeling
The rooms are clean and simple.
Clean sheets, quiet nights, and just enough light for one last page before sleep.
It’s the little things—like extra toothbrushes on the counter—that make you feel welcome.
Thoughtful touches like fresh towels and a well-made bed make this stay feel extra cared for.
No luxury frills, but everything you need is here.
More importantly—Hot Shower.
Mornings start with coffee, and here—you’ve got everything you need to make it just the way you like.
A warm shower after a beach day—simple comforts that make island stays feel like home.
This place doesn’t try too hard. It doesn’t have to.
The view does all the talking.
A True Island Welcome
The staff were so kind to us.
Even after checkout, we stayed by the beach, letting the sea breeze wash over us like a quiet goodbye.
They didn’t rush us and it made us feel like we belonged.
It wasn’t a five-star hotel, but it gave us a five-star feeling.
Bonus for Digital Nomads
The Wi-Fi here was strong and stable.
A solid pick for digital nomads who want to work by the sea—and unplug right after.

ThePureYann
A Hilltop Hideaway with Hammocks and Island Views
Check the best rate and review on booking.com
Hidden on a quiet hill in Siquijor, this place feels like a secret.
With just three rooms, it’s peaceful, personal, and perfect for those who want to slow down and truly feel the island.
Hammock Mornings with Sunshine
Each room comes with its own hammock on the balcony.
I spent slow mornings here, letting the sunlight warm my face, watching palm trees sway in the breeze.
It’s the kind of morning that doesn’t need a to-do list.
A Sunset View Like No Other
In the shared area, there’s a hammock facing the sea.
From here, you can see the sun set right behind Apo Island.
The sky glows orange and fades to purple.
There’s no one rushing, no noise — just you, the light, and the breeze.
That moment felt like a quiet kind of happiness. And it stayed with me.
Welcoming Hosts
What made this stay even more special was the hosts — Henning and Mary.
They weren’t just helpful. They genuinely wanted us to feel at home.
On our last day, they even offered to drive us back to the port — a kind gesture that made our goodbye feel a little softer.
During the ride, Henning shared that this stay is still in its early stages.
They have plans to expand, maybe even add new locations.
It made me excited to see how this special little corner of the island will grow.
