Water to Forest Ecolodge

Loved the setting for our accommodation as it was out in nature and perfect to reset - we spent lots of time reading in our hammocks. Also lots of nearby activities to do such as chocolate hills, waterfalls, firefly tours. Some of the staff really went above and beyond to make us comfortable and allowed us to spend the day in the communal area after our check out. We found the street very charming to walk down as the locals are all very friendly there and said hello.

I think you have to be a certain type of person to enjoy staying here.... if you don't like bamboo, ladders, trap doors and fans instead of air con - don't go. Thankfully we loved it. The location next to the river is perfect. We swam at least twice a day and instead of showers (which were great and very refreshing!) We liked the hammocks. The food was delicious. It was tucked away at the end of the road, and didn't feel very touristy - all the locals were lovely and waved and said hello every time we passed by.

I enjoyed my three nights here - it is an extremely memorable place to stay. I was in the shared “dorm” so I can’t comment on the cottages etc The food and drink in the restaurant were great, although the service here could sometimes be slow (that gives more time to chill in the Forest though) The staff were brilliant - I appreciated that they learnt our names and did what they could for us - especially a smiley female staff member who’s name I can’t remember sorry

My fiance proposed to me here so it will obviously always be a special place. The staff was super helpful and coordinated with him to arrange beautiful flowers and a candlelit dinner for us on the deck next to the river. Outside of that moment, the staff were incredibly welcoming and kind throughout our stay. We loved swimming in the river, reading books on the hammocks, laying in the sun outside of our room, getting massages, and eating delicious food and refreshing smoothies daily. There was no hot water in the shared showers but honestly it’s not needed when the weather is so hot and humid. The ecolodge is absolutely beautiful, we really loved how natural yet thoughtfully placed everything is. It is a work of art. Highly recommend the firefly watching on Sup boards at night. We had prebooked at another hotel before knowing WTF ecolodge offered the same for cheaper, so do think about booking when you get here. We also booked a scooter to go to the nearby waterfalls, which were incredible day trips. Twin falls (Pahangog Falls) is the best!! We had an amazing tourguide there, Abling. Ask for him if you can. Highly recommend visiting and highly recommend staying here during your visit to Bohol.

The team was lovely and they helped with food adaptations as I am vegan. The food in general was pretty good. The surroundings in the middle of the forest and next to the river were beautiful. Beds were comfy and the place is overall very cute.
