Pros:

Just telling it like it is... Already having stayed at five places in Siargao, this was my favorite so far — and the first one that felt like home. It’s a petite stay that had everything I needed. A place that made falling in love with Siargao’s beautiful north just a little easier. I would’ve extended my stay for a few more days if it hadn’t been booked. Can recommend and would come again.

Very good
Pros:

The homestay appears new, so it's very clean and comfortable. It is a tiny house with steep narrow stairs cases. We are in our 50s but very fit and didn't find it a problem, but others may.
It's centrally located to 2 surf spots, pacifico and secret beach so perfect for us.

Cons:

Superb
Pros:

Very affordable for a room with kitchen and own toilet, also it is very near stores and eateries. I can also do my laundry since there's a place to hang clothes.

Ate Joy was also very accommodating~ I went during fiesta in Burgos and I feel very welcomed by Ate Joy and family.

Cons:

Sometimes there's a smeel coming from the sink but it can be fixed by pouring hot water in the drain. Also the internet is kind of weak. However, Ate Joy mentioned that they will be upgrading to StarLink soon!

Lovely homestay, fantastic host, we loved our time here
Pros:

We loved the location, the North is much more peaceful and lots of empty beaches, and you feel that you are living amongst the locals. Plenty of great food options nearby.
We had the apartment with the rooftop, which had everything we needed. Comfy bed and hot water shower.
Most importantly, the host is the most expectionally kind person and does everything to make your stay as enjoyable as possible.
She did our laundry, gave us bandages when I injured myself, delivered some homemade snacks and when we had trouble leaving the island, she let us stay another night. She could not do anymore and makes you feel so welcome.

Cons:

The island has a lot of power cuts and electrical surges. This is not the hosts fault, but sometimes it can get quite hot and stuffy in the room when the A/C is not on. So be prepared for this (we had a couple of powercuts for an hour or two during our 11-day stay). The host did give us a battery bank with an emergency light, which was thoughtful.
The apartment has gates downstairs but does mean you get some mosquitoes come to visit and not all the windows/doors have mosquito nets.
The stairs are a little steep getting into the apartment, so the top floor apartment would not be ideal if you need good accessibility.

Pros:

This place is well maintained and very affordable. It has a very quiet neighborhood and close to Alegria beach. The beach is the most beautiful beach in the island in my opinion. Joy welcomed us with warm heart. She is very accomodating and very helpful. I am highly recommending this place and will definitely go back.

Cons:

Burgos is further north and 1 hr and 15 minute scooter drive from General Luna.
