  SOME TIPS

Overnight accommodations or rooms are not very available at this stage on that island,

although there is a plan to establish one or two.

Since there are no ‘real’ restaurants there, it is advisable that you bring with you your own provisions - it is practical as it is economical. If you prefer,

you can buy your food and drinks from the mainland by taking a tricycle (or trisikad) to the market.

OTHER ACCOMMODATIONS NEARBY

Not so close to the island are some accommodations you can rent for an overnight stay or so.

 For example, just a 100-meter from Medellin Hideaway resort,

 you can rent a room (PhP2500) with the basic facilities and amenities

 (aircon, TV, karaoke, bathroom, 4-6 persons).
