3 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 April 2013

We stayed at Summer Homes for 3 nights in March 2013. We paid 700 Peso's for a small double room (not a bungalow) with bathroom. We didn't eat at the restaurant because the menu looked very overpriced. There was free wifi, but the connection was extremely slow.

Summer Homes is a great choice when in Port Barton. The rooms are clean, spacious, and comfortable. The restaurant attached has good food but is a little overpriced. Be prepared for an expensive ride either to/from Puerto Princerra as there is only one bus or jeepney that travels back and fourth. If you miss that, you will have to hire... More

The resort is a great deal. Very good rooms and the best bungalows in front. Brother had a room, we (family with small kid) had bungalow. Bungalow was really the best what you can get for 24€. Nice, clean, cosy room. With ok bathroom. Beautiful terrace with sea view and between the terrace (bungalow) and sea is only nice grass... More

Nice resort in a good location in Port Barton, directly to the beach. The rooms towards inside are of lower quality and I can only rate these. I would always recommend a cottage with sea view, they are of much higher quality. Very friendly and nice staff that is very attentive. All kind of tours and activities are offered there.... More

The hotel is located in the middle of the nice white beach in Port Barton. They offer different kind of rooms and cottages. Price between 700-1500 Peso. In the evening the nicest place for dinner. All in all I can recommend this place

Summer Homes offered the reasonable amenities for a great beach accommodation. SH at Port Barton as the nicest location among the others - accessible by land transport (the public bus San Isidro Express dropped us right off at the entrance), the fine white sand beach is maintained/cleaned daily and great for children playing in the gentle waves in low or...

I chose summer homes as its location and setting seemed rather nice. My one thing the turn me away from staying further was the concreate rooms. For the philippines its nice to have a more native feel rather then a european or american feel. Summer homes stands out from the surrounding because of just that the concreate everywhere. The grounds... More

We stayed at Summer Homes as a stop off for one night only, but we would definitely return & stay for longer. We found the staff very welcoming and helpful. The rooms were spacious, very clean & comfortable. It's in a great location on the beach - the beach isn't a swimming beach, but it's lined with boats that will... More

I stayed at Summer Homes for a week back in 2011 and again in October 2011. I find the service excellent and friendly and the food very good. The location is quiet and the beach sand is very nice to walk. They have a nice location in the center of the beach. There is two room styles to choose from... More
