Rates as published in October 2026, before the 3% online processing fee. Guests beyond 20 need the host's approval.

What else should the budget include?

  • A 3% online processing fee on the booking.
  • A ₱3,000 security deposit at check-in, refunded if nothing is damaged; keep it separate from the shared cost.
  • Food and drinks: breakfast is not included, but each villa has a kitchen for 20 and an outdoor griller, so many groups cook.
  • Parking: four cars per villa park free; extra cars park nearby for a ₱100 flat fee.
  • Optional extras: firewood set-up (₱150), jacuzzi heating in Zachary and Zoie, and ₱3,000 per day if you bring an outside caterer.

How do you split it fairly?

Cost per person = villa rate + fees + shared food, transport and extras, divided by the people who have actually committed. Name one treasurer, collect the share before paying the deposit, and agree what happens if someone drops out; a group of 20 that becomes 16 pays ₱1,563 each instead of ₱1,250 on a ₱25,000 night. Keep the security deposit separate so its refund goes back to whoever fronted it.

Is a villa better value than hotel rooms?

For a group that wants to spend the day together, a whole villa with its own pool usually gives more shared space for the money. For a few couples who want separate rooms and service, hotel rooms may suit better. Compare full totals for the same dates and guests, including meals. See hotel, public resort or whole villa and weekday versus weekend stays.
