I had a fantastic stay at GT Seaside Inn! The room was absolutely perfect—clean, spacious, and very comfortable. What really stands out, though, is the service; the staff are incredibly courteous, friendly, and always ready to help.

On the food side, you must try their Spanish Latte and Beef Salpicao—both were delicious! Highly recommended for anyone looking for a relaxing getaway.

Not as good as the 8.4 it was given

I don't want to be one of those reviewers who is picky and never satisfied. I do need to respond though. We chose this hotel because of its 8.4 out of 10 rating. I'm at a lose. It's really closer to a 6. While the room wasn't dirty, it did have roaches. Also a foul smell. The shower in directly over the toilet. What I'm saying is in a tiny bathroom there is a toilet, shower and sink with a floor drain. No separation between shower and toilet. Kind of gross. Who wants to go into a bathroom with a wet floor from having been showered in? The room was very small and there was a lot of noise from the other guest coming and going at all hours. We ended up leaving after the first night, forfeiting our payment, and going to ather hotel just up the street. It was worth it to us to be out the money than to stay there and have our trip ruined. I will say though, the staff was nice. Its not there fault the place is dumpy.

Rooms are tiny and no coffee maker, only two plugs by the door but the staff will help with absolutely anything- we got bowls and silverwear. They also helped us exchange money ( has to be crisp bills in the city and credit cards are not commonly used). Whale shark excursion handled by the hotel as well.

Improve on your cleanliness

I had a tummy ache so I used the bathroom by the kitchen because we have not check in yet. And behold, bathroom beside the kitchen was so dirty! ants were everywhere on the sink. Pots and pans have water, rice with roaches.The soiled covers were also in that bathroom, I think that is where they wash the bedding.
The place was by the seashore, so my children enjoyed it but have rocks and a bit dirty so, I did not let them swim on it.
People seemed to be friendly and ready to help
Close to the whale shark watching so that was a good thing.
I will not come back on the place.

The hotel has all you need, make sure you spend some time just looking at the view and cherishing the beauty that you are surrounded by. Make sure you go to Tumalog Falls and Hidden Falls.

Thanks GT seaside!

100% would recommend staying here. No, it's not a fancy hotel with room service and a pool... but staying on the ocean makes up for it! We swam here at night to cool off but don't go too deep- there are sea urchins lurking in the grass.
This place is clean! There's air conditioning, TV, private bathroom, and a shower for those who aren't used to tabo tabo. Free breakfast of coffee and longanisa was provided every morning. Arthur is a really nice guy, answered any questions we had about the local area and renting motorbikes. He even rescued us when our vespa got a flat tire!!
The location is perfect. It's a 3 minute walk to the public market, bakeries, food shops. We ate barbecue here every night! Nearby there's also karaoke, church ruins, park on the ocean. We met our awesome tour guide, Rhex, when we got off the bus and he guided us to our hotel. The locals are friendly and kind, don't be scared to ask directions!
The whale sharks are cool, but there are many hidden gems on this island. Highly recommend Mainit Springs, Aguinid falls, and especially cayoneering near badian. None of these were overly crowed or too touristy.
One thing I do have to warn you about- DO NOT take a boat from Oslob to Bohol. Take the ferry. Longest 4 hours of my life battling seasickness on the violent ocean. The ferry is cheaper, bigger, and a smoother ride.
Can't wait to come back to this beautiful island and stay here again.

Loved the air, the waives and the room

This hotel deserves an excellent rating. Relaxing stay by the sea. We enjoyed watching and listening to the waves.

Breakfast by the sea is fit for big tummies. We booked a family room and slept comfortably with its 2 queen size beds. Room with AC and ceiling fan.

The hotel owner, kuya Tata, is very hands on. Hence, any problems will be dealt with by him first hand. One night when the water supply stopped because of some technical problems with the water tank, Kuya Tata was the one who fixed it. Although it bothered us a bit because it was wash up time, the water supply was restored an hour or two. I just hope that that will never happen again when we come back.

I also hope they have provision where wet suits can be hanged. After our Sumilon island trip, we ended up hanging our wet suits on the rails just outside our door.

Walking distance from the road. Too bad I overlooked and failed to avail of the free shuttle service from Mactan Airport. Hence, we ended up taking the Ceres bus to Oslob and walking with our luggages from the main road on our way to the hotel.

A tricycle ride to Oslob whale watching area and Sumilon Island jump off point.

We rented a vehicle from them that took us to Oslob whale watching, Aguinid Falls and Kawasan Falls then brought us to our next hotel destination in Moalboal.

Lovely hotel by the sea

Great hotel, the rooms and clean and comfortable and the owner Tata is really helpful, he arranged several trips for us and gave us other helpful advice about the area. The hotel is by the sea, though it's not really a place for swimming it's a great place to just wander along the seafront and see the locals fishing. It's near some goos shops and bakeries too. I'd recommend staying here!

Nice place

Hotel is located walking distance to the main road so you can easily get there by catching Ceres bus and getting out in Oslob village centre
Hotel is small, right on the seafront. Rooms are clean, air con, small but comfortable enough for the stay
Breakfast is included and cooked fresh every morning and is delicious
They have a street food bbq place right by the main road where all villagers come to eat so it was great and affordable dinner for us.
There is no beach available with this hotel, just seafront bordered off by cement wall to protect property from high tide, even tho you can't swim, view is still beautiful
Walking distance to a local church and seafront park where all locals hang out in the evenings, very beautiful small village with friendly local people
If you are looking for no hustle and bustle and want to stay somewhere where you can blend in with locals, perfect place
Don't buy tour from anyone, 5:30 in the morning walk to the main road and catch a jeepney 10 peso to whale shark watching place, you the buy a ticket for 1000 peso and get life west and snorkels and guide and boat to take you to the Sharks. Super easy to do and you save 300 peso on tricycle there and back
Young man on the reception was super smiley and super cute
They were doing renovations- building second floor to the hotel, so for a while now it will be very loud during a day with all the hammering and knocking
Would I stay again, yes if I would go and see sharks again

GT Inn is a small and cozy place by the sea near Oslob. It's in the middle of Oslob town and about 10km from the whale watching place and Tumalog falls.

Great place

The place is decent and staff is kind. Room size and condition is okay. Location is great as it is near the main attraction which was the whale shark watching site(15 mins drive), Tumalog Falls (10mins drive along the way to the whale shark site). It is by the beach and within the town proper so it's really near the market, places to eat and near the old church which was a great side-trip destination. We requested for early breakfast at 5:30am and they accommodated it. Though they served it later than I expected, I appreciated the effort from them for waking up early to serve us breakfast. Overall I would highly recommend this for place to stay in Oslob.
