Monthly Rentals in Basco

From the very beginning, Miss Jona was very accommodating. She reached out to us a day before the check-in to ensure that we were pushing through with our trip and to ask whether we needed airport transfer accommodation. It took us a while to find the place but she was very responsive and we were checked-in in no time at all. She was even willing to move the check-in time earlier given that our flight arrived at 8 AM and check-in wouldn't be for another few hours. All throughout the trip, responses to requests were very prompt. Recommendations for places to eat at nearby were spot-on. Miss Jona always checked in to see what time we wanted to have breakfast the next day. Finally, her brother who helps manage the place even offered free airport transfer from the house. If I'm ever in Batanes again, I will strongly consider staying with Ma'am Jona given the positive reception. All the best!

This stay was great, very near the airport. The Aimer was very friendly and welcoming. The receptionist was suuper friendly and made me feel like this was my home, food provided at the stay was so good - it was Filipino food which I appreciated, this made me appreciate the culture more which is the reason why I wanted to visit Batanes. Everyone was so friendly, I could just walk around by myself and feel safe. Expect to have a small town vibe - which adds to the authenticity of what the islands are all about. They also offer/recommend a great Tour Package. I could not have asked for the Perfect 2 day stay in Batanes. A much needed alone time away from the busy city life and not think about much and away from people and just reflect. If you’re looking for a stay and tour, this is a 100% recommendation!

Our stay exceeded expectations. The place was in a quiet street but very near the main road. There were small stores nearby for our needs. The rooms were big and comfortable. Each room had its own bathroom too, which we really appreciated. There was a balcony facing Mt.Iraya and we could watch the planes taking off and landing! Big plus for the kids! The common areas were also comfortable. We were able to bond as a family since we could hang out together unlike in hotels. Our hosts were so kind and helpful! Maam Agnes was always responsive whenever we had any questions or needed help. They picked us up from the airport and made us feel right at home. I definitely would recommend this place to anyone who wants to visit Batanes.

I am reluctant to heap too much praise on Mabel's place or Batanes in general lest both be bombarded by tourists, thereby eroding the qualities that make them so special. Suffice it to say that staying at the B&B is like staying with family. Tito, Tita, and Ate Alona are some of the warmest and most gracious individuals whom I have ever had the pleasure of encountering. We will be back!
