"You only have access to one toilet /shower for a room of 8. It gets quite busy since we're all there for the same reason at the same time. The lookers are quite small, I hate to store my bag under my bed. No towels are provided, there's no soap, bath soap, shampoo or anything. This is just a bed for the night and nothing more. 2 stars bc the staff were amazing and free water. And the bed were comfortable. "

"Positives: The room had an amazing sunrise, the breakfast area and breakfast food was amazing. The patio area was nice to sit and do some journal entries. We were able to park our rental car in front with no issue. It was a short 15 minute drive to the Oslob whale shark site. Negatives: The room shower smelled very very bad, we didnt even use it. I'm warning you. The safe in the room didnt work either. There is no elevator in the hotel, so you have to walk up a staircase. It was an average...

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Tan-Awan?
The best area to stay in Tan-Awan is along the coastline, particularly near the main whale shark watching briefing area, for convenient access to the primary attraction.

This coastal stretch is where most of the accommodation options are located. You'll find a mix of resorts and guesthouses directly facing the sea, often just a short walk from the whale shark interaction point. The main road (Oslob-Bato Road) runs parallel to the coast, making it easy to get around.

Couples looking for a relaxing and memorable experience will find this area ideal. Many resorts offer rooms with sea views, private balconies, and direct beach access, great for enjoying sunrises over the ocean. The proximity to the whale shark activity means less travel time and more opportunities for other activities like snorkelling or simply unwinding by the water.

For families, staying close to the whale shark briefing area is also highly convenient. It minimises travel for early morning activities, which is a major plus when travelling with children.
