Let’s be real, one of the biggest things to consider when planning a getaway is your budget – it’s the backbone of your travel itinerary! Of course, you’d want to go all out, but for those traveling on a budget, you’d want to go for accommodations that won’t bite a huge chunk of your pocket money. If you’re planning to live out your tropical dreams and visit Siargao soon, you’d want to consider this hostel in General Luna.

Balay Hayahay

Nestled right in the hustle and bustle of General Luna, Balay Hayahay is a new accommodation that will let you enjoy the island to the fullest without breaking the bank. Boasting the classic bahay kubo structure you’ll see around the island, Balay’s A-frame rooms are air-conditioned, has a private toilet and bath, uber IG-worthy, and starts at P1,500 per night for two. Prices can even go lower when you get discounts!

Don’t underestimate the size of these stylish rooms – they come with lots of storage for your luggage as the bed frame also doubles as a cabinet.

During your stay, you’ll also have access to shared spaces like the kitchen and lounge area where you can play board games or catch a movie. Balay Hayahay is near markets in General Luna; you can whip up your meals before exploring the island in the morning to save too!

If you want to save more, don’t mind sharing, and want to meet new friends, you can go for the dorm-type shared rooms that start at P350 per night.

Other services

Balay Hayahay also offers motorbike rentals for P350 a day, airport pick-up for P300 per head, and tours around the island.
