More than just a hostel :)

They have the most trustworthy staff. I became good friends with Lloyd, King, Jovan, Enzo and everyone else when I first came to the island and didn't know anyone. They took care of everything, even things that aren't part of the hostel's amenities. They treat you like a friend, not just like a guest. Adriane is very hands-on in managing the hostel, even being very particular about the type of tapa they serve. The bed in the dorms are so big and comfortable, something I didn't expect in a hostel dorm. Their restrooms are always clean and fully stocked. Food is always delicious and fresh. The free shots at the bar after 8pm are actually very cost-efficient for getting yourself drunk before going to parties. Lol. I'll miss this place and I'll definitely come back.

Many of the tuktuks outside will try to make you pay higher every chance they have

Social stay

The staff are ace! Jovan, King, Dredd and Generose made my stay in siargao amazing! It was easy to connect with other solo travellers and the vibe was fun with activities every night. I had a minor issue with my booking but they were quick to resolve it for me. The showers and bathroom is located out the room which is what I prefer so there’s no one waking each other up at night etc.

The showers only have cold water which is fine when it’s hot weather - but it’s my understanding that they are working to get some showers with hot water

À éviter, mieux vaut booker dans un hostel à côté et venir prendre un verre le soir

Le personnel, vous dira ce que vous voulez entendre tant que vous signez les Excursions avec eux. Prix 40% plus élevé que partout ailleurs, avec comme seule explication … que le petit dej est inclus .. tricheur !

Wild.

It was my second visit to Mad Monkeys Siargao and I still love it. The staff are amazing and always greet you with a smile. Jovah, Steve and especially Jem were always there to help me. I'm looking forward to my discount, Steve. Haha! See you next year! Amping. - V

AMAZING AND ACCOMMODATING STAFF!

The staff are all accommodating, Cristian, Dred, Jovan and Jonathan. Thank you for making my stay the best experience! You guys rock! I also love the different activities every night, the beer pong tournament and the pub quiz which we won that game.

Nothing. Just continue giving the best service.

Perfect place for solo traveler

The staff most specially the guest experience crew Cristian, Jovan, Dredd and Jonathan they make your stay here amazing and so much fun. I had the best time everytime i stayed in mad monkey.

And Also Rackie for always helping me out when i need a scooter . Over all experience in the hostel is amazing and its easy to make friends most specially if you’re a solo traveler.

Overall, I really enjoyed my stay here. I found my tribe and people that'll forever cherish.

Stayed for a week and 1 and half day here. PROS: • Starlink wifi; sometimes strong/weak but manageable • Air conditioner & Fan • Back up generator (There was a whole day black out & Mad Monkey 💯) • Area is located in a good area with good data coverage • Comfy wide beds with 2 fluffly pillows and sturdy beds. • They're constantly upgrading the place. • Near Cloud 9 • Best hostel to socialize if you're a solo traveller • Free shots at the bar every hour until 10pm • Different activities every night • Friendly staffs (shoutout to Jonatahan, Christian, Jovan & Drei—I love you!) • Free drinking water • Unlimited tissue and handsoap • Toilet with bidet • Big parking space • Bike rental outside the hostel (there are cheaper like 300+ php but on a different rental shop) • Laundry : Outside the hostel (cheaper than Mad Monkey's) • 300 php deposit towel which will be given back after you return the towel. • 2 charging port and 1 lamp in your bed. • Free welcome drink stub SUGGESTION: • Have a Love Island Room that people can rent for 1h/2h/3h or 24h to have intimacy (They're really against having intimacy in the dorm.) • Have a bowl of free earplugs (Just like in Mad Monkey Panglao) to allow regular intimacy in regular dorms. 📍Note for the travellers: • Expect people to have sex in the dorm.

PROS/CONS (50/50) • No noise after 10 pm (residential area) • NO intimacy allowed in the rooms. (If you want, you have to book a private room or do it in the shower / avoid getting caught). If you get caught a staff will ask you out. • In relation to above, they have CCTV so they'll be watching your move especially when you're with someone. CONS • Everthing is pricey • Water shortage (happens anytime during the day/night) • Filth underneath the bed & at the sides. • Quite far from the main center, scooter is necessary. Tuktuk is 30 php during the day & 50 php at night (sometimes the drivers asks for more esp at night) • Pricey food, drinks, and tours. • Bathrooms are sometimes smelly • No privacy in the bed since the divider isn't all the way down (legs can be seen) and the curtain doesn't go all the way. • No free lock for the lockers • 1 rude night guard (Didn't get his name; He was doing his job but he could've handled it better) • No hot shower • No gym and kitchen

Can't wait to come back again.

Great location with super welcoming staff and friends around the host. Great activities every night before heading to the party location for the day. Would also recommend jumping on the tri-island tour - very fun and relaxing day. Particular shout out to Jonathon and Christian who went above and beyond to make me feel like I was family and ensure I had a good time.

The staff is amazing. Great social vibe. Every night there's something going on. But you can also chill in the dorm rooms and have relaxed one. Enough showers and toilets. ATM directly at the property. Big parking lot for the bikes. Security by night. They can also organise a scooter or a shuttle to the airport/pier. Big lockers in the rooms.

The pool is not the cleanest. There's no space to have a workout or a training/yoga. Not enough space to dry clothes, especially when you wash by yourself. Food and drinks are excellent, but also pricey.

only stay here if you are feral. siargao is a peaceful place, go to party hostels elsewhere, not here.

the restuarant area was nicely maintained and plenty of seating area. I got a refund pretty quickly

no running water, faeces and vomit in all the toilets, no doors on some of the rooms, infrastructure of beds so poor that when one person is enjoying someone else’s company in the night (which is prohibited but still occurs as staff don’t clamp down on rules) everyone on that side of the room feels it - pretty atrocious. Staff unwilling to help when I came back from surfing at 7am and men were still drinking in the disgustingly maintained pool and calling out to me- one female member of staff just gave a look to say “well what do you expect your a female and they are drunk”. Tour organisers messed up arranging 4 people to go to the Wakepark (seems pretty easy right?). Not enough lockers in the dorms, no keys for the room, security keys anyone walk into the hostel and doesn’t clamp down on all the drunk people getting on their scooters to go into the main area. Horrific place worst hostel I have ever stayed in.

my stay at my mad monkey was expectional! the staff always went above and beyond and knew everyone by name. I was sad to

such a big space for lots of entertainment and socializing. appreciated quiet time at 10 so you could sleep at a decent time!

location was not the best as a scooter was necessary and the pool did not look clean.

Great place to meet people, very social vibe every night. Always something happening. Dorm room had big beds and our room was actually very quiet. Location a bit out of general Luna but easy 10 min scooter.

Staff not super helpful/kinda lacklustre. Multiple times they had no water available, for like 24 hours at one point.. Have to pay for towels.

It’s cool

Friendly staff, good vibe, you meet the best people there. Von,who works there is like the night life and activities coordinator, is a cool guy and knows the best places to go to and activities to do for a fun day+night.

Overall I liked it but my experience could have been better if every toilet was not clogged for 3 days. It was gross showering next to an overflowing clogged toilet that made each bathroom smell so bad. Out of 8 bathrooms maybe 2 was working.

I got the value of my money. Unlimited supply of toilet paper even though they also have bidet.

Toilet and bathroom needs more attention.
