Balai sa Baibai

Top choice in Camiguin


Meticulously manicured oasis of style and sophistication, created by a Filipino-British couple whose finely calibrated taste is evident in every feature, especially the luxuriously appointed Balinese-style villas with kitchenettes, outdoor showers and their own plunge pools – surely the nicest rooms on the island.

The beachfront bar (5pm to 10pm) has an elevated platform with two plunge pools and is the best place for a sundowner on the island.
