Medellin hotel rooms a the Independent

"Close to the market with lots of food choices. Not so close to the beach."

"For the price, the room was EXCELLENT! Great personal service, Breakfast was great. Right on the beach for less than 50 US dollars for the nice. Small but nice cabins with everything you need. "

"All was great, except the beach is no longer accessible as it is now part of a Marine Protected Area. Also, like most of the Philippines, corals in the area are badly damaged by dynamite fishing, and reefs are severely overfished."

"I honestly wasn't expecting much from the property since it was still available while the other lodging places in the area were sold out. All I can say is that I am very impressed with everything, from service, to how everything looked, food was also great. They also offer pick up and drop off service which was a huge plus. I will come back and I highly recommend this place! 5/5!"

"Excellent staff!!"

"Very happy also excellent staff "

"Excellent staff"

"This place is amazing. The food choices are incredible. They have impressively good pizza. Great coffee. I cannot emphasize enough how good the food is. Service is good. Place is clean. "

"Spacious, immaculate rooms, with great views (not on the beach, but you are elevated enough for a nice shot at the ocean over a jungle canopy). Attentive, professional staff. Strong A/C. In-room french press coffee/tea, snacks also available. Short walk from the pier and/or to your dive op. Close to many excellent eateries. No TV (it's the '24 US election season, so that's a blessing). 2 dozen big steps and a little path to walk up to get here (it's the highest point on the island after all). Friendly security guard hangs out all night. "
