Bermuda Triangle Bungalows
$60-120/ nacht
Boek dit als You want a private, standalone bungalow with a killer outdoor bathroom in the heart of San Juan without paying resort prices.
Waarom mensen ervan houden
- The signature open-air tropical bathrooms (shower under the stars)
- Daily complimentary afternoon snacks and juice delivered to your porch
- Blazing fast Starlink WiFi (a rarity on the island)
Snel Overzicht: A charming garden hideaway that nails the tropical vibe but completely lacks a pool and on-site restaurant.
Beoordeeld door @lifeofsayaka: I stayed in this A-frame bungalow and it was the perfect digital detox. The highlight for me was definitely the bathroom—showering in the open air with plants everywhere felt so wild yet private. Highly recommend for a romantic reset.

Reality check
Guests in bungalows near the road complain about morning traffic noise, and the lack of a pool is a frequent 'wish we knew' comment.
- You are an introvert who wants a standalone cabin, not a hotel hallway
- You plan to rent a scooter and explore all day, just needing a chill base
- You find showering outdoors in a private garden romantic, not creepy

Veelgestelde vragen & Verborgen tips
Alles wat je eigenlijk wilt weten voordat je boekt.
Is there really no pool?
Correct. There is NO pool. You are a 2-minute walk to Maite Beach, though it's better for sunsets than swimming.
How is the WiFi?
Surprisingly good. They use Starlink, making it one of the more reliable spots for digital nomads in Siquijor.
Is the bathroom private?
Yes, it is fully walled and private, but it has no roof (open to the sky). It's a highlight for most, but a bug-risk for some.
How far is it from the Siquijor port?
About 15-20 minutes by tricycle. Expect to pay 250-500 PHP depending on your haggling skills.
Can I walk to restaurants?
Yes! You are in the Maite/San Juan strip. Luca Loko and other spots are within a 5-10 minute walk.
Do they serve lunch and dinner?
No. Only breakfast is served. For other meals, you'll need to head out to the nearby restaurants.
Tips van Insiders
- ✨
The 'afternoon snack' is a legit daily perk—usually local cakes or fruits delivered around 3-4pm. Don't miss it.
- ✨
Maite Beach nearby is shallow and rocky; for a real swim, rent a scooter and head to Tubod Beach (5 min drive) or Paliton Beach.
- ✨
The staff can organize a massage in your bungalow—it's cheaper than a spa and very relaxing in the garden setting.
5 dingen die je moet weten voordat je gaat
💡The water pressure in the outdoor showers can fluctuate wildly depending on island power.
💡You might share your shower with a gecko or two (they eat the mosquitoes, they are friends).
💡There is no lobby or hangout space; your social life happens on your porch or in town.
💡The 'garden view' sometimes means looking at the back of another bungalow, not a sprawling lawn.
💡They are strict about check-out times because they have a small cleaning crew.
