Mother Nature
Please remember this is the Jungle and our cabins are native. We do our best to keep mother nature at bay but sometimes it’s out of our control. Please do your part to assist us with this. If you leave food out on the side you can expect some visitors. We’ve provided a hanging basket for dried snacks and you have a fridge so best to keep your food in there to avoid chickens, cats or any other unwanted thief’s stealing them. The TOKO’s...... No, it’s not a Komodo dragon! And it won’t eat you either! That loud “TO-KO” noise you can hear is our bug eating friend. They’re everywhere here in the province so you can expect them in and around Jungle hut, or any other accommodation within the island for that matter. Don’t worry, they’re totally harmless and will help to take care of any bugs for you.

Kitchen
Our kitchen is simple but we mostly have everything necessary for you survive. Please find all utensils and cook ware available in the cupboards. We provide some ingredients to get you started. So oil, soy, vinegar, sugar, salt and coffee are all there for you to help yourself too but if you wish to cook its best to buy supplies from the local market.

Supplies
We have also stocked the fridge with a few supplies for you to buy. So, beer, coke and any other supplies you find in there will have to be paid for. This Is managed by Ralph and Raph and serve as a little side business for them so please don’t forget to pay before leaving. Soaps, towels, toilet rolls etc are all provided too. If you run out just ask and we will replenish them for you. Also, please don’t steal our shampoo bottles.... towels, kitchen ware, furniture, workers or plants lol. None of them are freebies...

Power Shortages
Unfortunately, part of living on an island and within the Philippines and Siquijor island means that you may experience some power cuts, which the locals refer to as ‘brown outs’. Welcome to island life. Fortunately in our area these brown outs mostly last for a hour before coming back. We have provided some emergency lights and a backup power station for you to use just in case. they should be ample power for you to charge your phones and camera a few times or add som juice to your laptop.
...
Internet
Generally speaking, our internet speeds are fine for general use of Youtube, socials and any other light work but please remember this is Siquijor island so from time to time the connection may be a little slower. We do our best but unfortunately this is often out of our control. If during your stay we suffer a power shortage and you have a social media emergency then the router will auromaticall run for a while. After this you'll be with your surroundings. Make the most of them! If its a real emergency still you can plug the router into the battery backup and this should run for a few hours.
