My friends and I have been here last Nov 2012. We find the place very romantic as it is built on the sea. The view from the deck makes us reminisced past memories. It is a rest house I think that maintained by trusted people. People are very polite and generous as they serve our meals as if we pay... More

We stayed at Birang Guesthouse for about 3 days. It was a terrible terrible experience. I was the one who booked this place for my family because I saw in some forums and reviews that its a great place to stay while in Coron. Maybe it was before, but it sure is not now. However when we arrived, there were... More

We went to coron in December for a family vacation and it was exactly what we wanted! It was a quaint place not too far from town with excellent service. Ate Jam, who is the person in charge, is very accommodating and was helpful with everything we needed. You can ask them to cook and prepare everything for you if... More

The Good - Central Location, clean and new. - Delicious home cooked meals (I only know about this as I read the reviews before booking the place, you can buy raw veg and meat and ask the staff to cook it, the staff did not mentioned this at all) The Bad - Brown out each night (no hot showers when...

A friend and I stayed here based upon the good reviews below. However, we were both left feeling rather disappointed. The house is in effect a very large bamboo hut which means the walls a paper thin! We could hear everything the couple in the room next to us were doing. (Keep that in mind when you start getting 'romantic!')... More

Stayed at this place for 4 days and 3 nights and it was all worth the money spent. Aling Viring has island tour packages that you can choose from and she will take care of everything - from airport transfers to island hopping to city tour inclusive of 3 full meals. The food they serve at the guest house is... More

We were a group of 3 and had a room with a double bed and a single. The bathroom was small but very clean. The room came with a TV and outlets that... More

Birang Guesthouse is a gem of a guesthouse in a town now congested with different types of accomodation. Birang remains true to the original spirit of Coron - laid back, peaceful, mindful of the environment. Rejecting plans to expand, the quality of service and the property remains impeccably intact. There is an overwhelming sense of feeling at home here, and... More

I've stayed at this establishment twice with different sets of friends and at both times, my friends and I were very happy with the decision. The place and its rooms are quite basic but maintained so well you'd think it was newly-built. The bathrooms are especially clean (spotless tiles!). The owner (a woman named Aling Viring) is very accommodating and... More
