| 1 Thank you Seair! | |||
| 2 Expensive because I was feeling VERY generous on the ride to the airport in Manila. No transfer costs in Baso, since the house was within walking distance from the airport. | |||
| 3 This is a one-bedroom house with three double beds and several mattresses available. This is a great value for big groups, since there's a good kitchen complete with utensils and cutlery. | |||
| 4 This is the easiest way to get around Batan and Sabtang island. Jeepneys doesn't come by too often, and most of the attractions are off the main highway. | |||
| 5 This lunch was had somewhere around Batan. The owner of the house accept food orders, and lunch was had on this deck with a great view of the sea | |||
| 6 For only Php 250, we had a great lunch with delicious coconut crabs on the most beautiful locations: the beach in Sabtang. | |||
| 7 Most of our meals were had in the house, and since we have a kitchen, we just cooked our breakfast, lunch and dinner. | |||
| 8 There's a fee collected upon arrival (Php 50) and on departure (Php 15) | |||
| 9 The housekeeper of Novita house was the best! She helped us arrange for our tours around Batan and Sabtang, our lunch during our day tours and she cleans up the house every morning. | |||
