Tuloy Siargao booking terms The deal, in plain language.
How booking works
A booking on this site is a request, not an instant reservation. You send your dates and room; a real person checks the calendar and replies by email, usually within a day. Asking is free.
The hold, and what secures your room. When we say yes, we hold your room for 3 days while you pay, and we email you the payment details with the hold. Your payment secures the room. If the payment has not arrived in 3 days, the hold ends and the room opens again.
Two ways to pay before you arrive.
- The advance: 20% of your first month (20% of the stay if it is under a month). The advance is part of your rent, not extra, and comes straight off what you owe. If two of you share a room, the advance includes the second guest's share: on a ₱40,000 month plus ₱3,000 for the second guest, the advance is ₱8,600.
- Or your first month and the security deposit together (the whole stay and the security deposit, if it is under a month). Then there is nothing to pay when you arrive.
How to pay: bank transfer, or GCash or Maya to the same account. We email you the details with the hold.
The security deposit. A refundable security deposit of 20% of a month's room rate (the second-guest charge is not included). It is a separate thing from the advance: it is held against damage, it is on top of the rent, and it comes back within 14 days of checkout, less any damage.
On arrival. If you paid the advance, you pay the rest of your first month plus the security deposit, by cash, GCash or bank transfer. On a ₱40,000 month that is ₱8,000 in advance, then ₱32,000 rent + ₱8,000 security deposit on arrival: ₱48,000 all in for your first month, of which ₱8,000 comes back. After the first month, rent is paid monthly the same ways: cash, GCash or bank transfer. Nothing is ever charged automatically: every payment is one you make yourself. Room rates are fixed. Anything extra you take up is priced and agreed with you before it is added.
Rates
- 1 month: ₱40,000 per month, per room
- 2–3 months: ₱38,000 per month, per room
- 4+ months: ₱35,000 per month, per room
- Staying longer: extend during your stay and your new months are on the rate for your whole stay (₱38,000 from month 2, ₱35,000 from month 4). The months you have already booked stay at the rate you booked them at. Book 4 months or more from the start and every month is ₱35,000.
- Second guest: +₱3,000 per month
- Group rate: book 2 or more rooms together and each room is 5% off its monthly rate. Monthly stays only.
- Short stays, 7 nights to under a month: double the monthly rate, by the night (₱2,667 a night, plus ₱100 a night for a second guest). The group rate applies to monthly stays only. For a short stay the advance is 20% of the stay, and the security deposit is the same as for a month.
Cancellation and refunds
- 14 days or more before you arrive: Your advance comes back in full within 7 days. Just tell us, so the dates open up for someone else
- Inside 14 days of arrival: The advance is kept, and nothing further is owed. Anything you paid above it comes back
- After you arrive: Leaving early does not refund the month you are in; your security deposit still comes back within 14 days of checkout, less any damage
The only money at risk before you arrive is the advance, and only if you cancel within 14 days of your arrival date. Inside those 14 days, if you paid your first month in full, only the advance part of it is kept and the rest comes back. A security deposit you paid before arriving always comes back in full on a cancellation. If we ever have to cancel, everything you paid comes back.
Money that comes back on a cancellation is sent within 7 days of the day you cancel, to the account you tell us. After checkout, your security deposit comes back within 14 days, less any damage. Nothing is ever charged automatically.
