If you love nature, you will enjoy Balai sa Baibai. The lawns are nice and relaxing to look at. The staff is awesome. They are friendly and can communicate well. The restaurant and bar are good but I wished they offered more fish in the menu!😉 it is unfortunate that the weather did not cooperate. It was rainy, however, we still enjoyed our stay.

Ten plus
Our Mother/daughter stay in Balai sa Baibai was short and sweet…the staff were very friendly, warm and accommodating. No frills and fanfare…basic accommodations, pool was clean. Place was quiet and the sound of roosters crowing in the morning was perfect! I love Filipino food…their chicken adobo was divine…banana turon and ice cream was the best! Hummus was also very delicious. Gambas was good too! Mattress could be updated, but overall…I would recommend this place to everyone

Loved the vibe. My villa was excellent. Maybe one thing they can look at going forward is to offer all-day dining options on-site? Or snacks/ bakery? If they lack the staff to do it maybe have somebody cater?

Look no further for peaceful, relaxing, and quiet.
There are no words to properly describe how amazing this property. The grounds are very lush with many pools and a great bar/deck area to enjoy the view of the ocean (especially during sunset). The private "room" with the high wall all the way around and the private pool created a very peaceful and relaxing environment. I can't wait to come back to Camiguin and this hotel. My biggest regret is not spending more nights here.
The guest pool buy the main building.

Talented design with such a comfortable feeling.
Amazing!! This boutique resort was a labor of love and it showed. It seemed like they knew what your needs were before you did. Our trip isn't over but I can say now that It was the highlight of our stay in the Philippines. We booked 3 nights and ended up adding 2 more. We felt like we were in a friends home with wonderful staff. Look forward to returning sometime.

Amazing Balai as BaiBai.
From the moment we arrived until the moment we left, we were pampered from all the staff & also the owners.As we booked in we were given a welcome drink,we were taken to our vista villa & given a tour of it & shown how everything worked. Later we had afternoon tea brought to us & this was each day that we were there. In the evening a free drink at the sunset bar & a bowl of nuts etc,was a nice touch. The complimentary breakfast was amazing, fruit (plate ),large variety of mains to choose from, (Filipino & Western )fruit drink,water,cereals, tea,coffee & whatever else you asked for. The two owners are to be commended the way they run Balai sa BaiBai & my wife & I will certainly be going back there in our next visit & we have already started telling our many friends about this wonderful resort. The staff were courteous, knowledgeable of the island, places of interest,places to eat & would do everything to make our stay comfortable & enjoyable. 10out 10.

This place was amazing! The staff was so helpful in all my questions about the area. We did a tour with the hotel. All the details that this hotel provides were so nice and added a special touch. The view from every seat was perfect. Breakfast was the tasty and too pretty to even eat.

Luxury on Camiguin
Camiguin is in general a rustic experience. The hot/cold springs, waterfalls and hikes are beautiful but best suited for those who don't mind roughing it a bit. Balai sa BaiBai is a great place to start the morning and end the day on Camiguin. A very beautiful place, where your every need can be attended to. If all you want to do is relax and enjoy the beauty, you won't need go anywhere else on Camiguin.

Hidden Gem of Camiguin Island
So we found ourselves in Balai sa Baibai, a 5-room hotel, and it is by far the best part of our 3-day vacation in the Island of Camiguin. My husband and I have done some travelling and have been to some high-end hotels and 5 star resorts but this is place can definitely compete with the list. It has been in operation for only a year, but the owners have been in the hospitality business for years, thus pouring all their passion and experience into this very lovely hotel. The rooms are either a suit or a villa. The villas have their own pool, yes, its own pool. Suits are just as beautiful as the villas. All the frills you get with a 5 star hotel, you get there. The interiors are undoubtedly beautiful, showcasing local building materials and local arts and architecture.Service is exceptional, from front desk to basically everyone in the hotel. Because its a small operation, you always see the owner who makes sure you are comfortable and enjoying your stay. Everything can be arranged. The only real bad thing about this hotel, it is booked almost all the time so you better book it way in advance if you want to experience this little hidden gem of a resort in Camiguin Island.

Nous avons passé 4 nuits absolument superbes au Balai sa Baibai ! L'hôtel est calme, reposant, tout le personnel est très agréable et aux petits soins. Les chambres sont magnifiques et très propres. La taille de l'hôtel est idéale pour le côté intimiste. Vraiment on s'est senti particulièrement bien dans cet établissement. Merci à l'équipe pour votre accueil et vos sourires !

Bästa hotellet på ön
Riktigt bra hotel. Det bilderna visar är också verkligheten. Det går att hitta småfel om man vill leta, men miljön och helheten för att det får full pott. Grannhotellet "SomeWhere Else Boutique Resort" har bättre byggda rum, men tappar i planering av hela anläggningen. Här finns lite lummiga områden med strandbar och mysiga poler.

less than expected
We chose this resort because the tripadvisor had good reviews but I don't know the reason well. The location is good but the room facsilities are not well maintained. The room was very small and hard to open the suitcase inside. The shower was not working well. The wifi was mostly not working during whole stay. It took more than 20 minutes to serve the breakfast after ordering. In total it's not bad but not worth for the room rate.
