This place is just 5 minutes from the port of Sta. Fe. The resort has free pick up and send off to and from the port. During our stay they have a free continental breakfast promo so its swell!!!Save some money there. Even if you choose the non beachfront property, beach is just a few yards away. I enjoyed the beach scene early in the morning and at dusk. I did some beach combing and walking from border to border. The only thing I did not not get to enjoy in this place was the swimming because its low tide during daytime when we were there. High tide is late at night. Beachline is too far and wide, its a long walk towards the water to have your swim. When its low tide, water receded way too far onto the sea. We had our swimming done at Ogtong cave area, for 100 pesos entrance fee, we got to swim in the brackish water of the cave. The sea water is closer to the shoreline, clean and clear too, not much corals that I am afraid to step onto for fear of destroying marine life. Tricycle ride minimum is 20 pesos per segment which is high from the mainland minimum of 7 pesos. Going to Bantayan town is 25 pesos tricycle ride.
Date of stay: October 2015
Room Tip: any room will do in this property since its close to the beach

    We stayed at Cottage 3 - Beachfront Native for 3 days. Which I thought was nice. Was a bit disappointed though because it was small and the running water in the bathroom was weak. I hope they fix it. But the view was spectacular. The sunset was amazing. And the beach was great. Do try to explore the island and go island hopping. All-in-all it was an awesome experience. I can't wait to go back.

    Beach placid is a no-frills, reasonably-priced accomodation in Santa Fe. Room is clean, bathroom is spacious, and airconditioning is satisfactory. The beach front has Boracay-like white powdery sand, soft and cool, even on a hot afternoons. The water is very clear, it's color akin to emerald green to blue as in El Nido, but no corals to step on, so it's like a giant swimming pool. Best to swim in the morning since it's often high tide in the afternoon. Catch the sunrise every morning, too. It's one of the best backdrop for a ripple-less, calm waters. In the dusk, skies turn pink and all beautiful. Overall, we got what we expected.

    The waiter there was awesome but the receptionist can be improved. she tends to be busy with something while you talk to her so you're not quite sure if she's listening or not- but she is. however, she have us a bigger room with a small fridge with our original booking- we were very happy with that! the aircon can get a bit noisy though but the place was clean & quiet even if there were a lot of people there since we went there on the weekend.

    the beach is nice, we spent nights talking about some stuff with my bf but you can see a few black and lavender jellyfishes swimming around (it was on a late afternoon) so i was quite anxious to swim. on the far end (since it was low tide and i walked to the deeper parts) there were sea urchins so that was also a bummer.

    there was a time that they ran out of eggs for breakfast and we had to wait for a very long time. We also had packed lunch for our island hopping and we had to ask if they had plates and utensils for us & they hadn't prepared it.

    Room tip: they have 6 rooms that are on the beach front

    The room we stayed in had the basic necessities, bed, aircon, private bathroom and thats it. nothing too special but thats fine since their rates are quite affordable. It's ok to stay at the non-beachfront room since the beach is only a few steps away. Overall we were comfortable with our stay but our only complaint was that it took them forever to serve food. Each time we ordered it took them an average of 1 hour before we get to eat. Will stay here again but i"ll probably try eating at a different restaurant next time.

    Placid has nice accommodation fit for family and within budget.
    It's beach front is not that wide but the ambience for sunset and even sunrise is picture perfect.
    I like the friendly staffs and clean accommodation.
    Placid is safe, clean and value for money.
