Hello! Osmo Pocket 2!
Hello guys, I heard the news today, please remain vigilant and stay safe by following the guidelines in swimming and water activities!
what happened po?
Jelly fish sting 4 months ago@@allenab7911
@@JanryAtienza ohh. pero sa mababaw na areas wala naman po msydong jellyfish no? may balak po kasi kami pumunta e. btw, i enjoyed ur vlog po sobra
Honestly di ko alam kasi nung nagpunta kami totally unaware kami na may ganun gulat lang rin kami months later na may nangyari ingat na lang and thank you for watching! Enjoy Bantayan! One of the best places napuntahan ko.@@allenab7911
Can you please help with two things:
-What's the schedule of the RoRo from Cebu to Hagnaya this mid November?
-How is the Bantayan weather in Bantayan during mid -November?
Not sure about the updated schedule this november. Weather should be fine unless there is a thunderstorm. It is amihan season so expect colder breeze.
Hello, ask ko po sana if jan na po ba sa hagnaya port bibili mismo ng ticket or pwede mag book online? Thank you in advance 🙂
I would suggest sa mismong Port na bumili ng ticket para sure :)
Very interesting video and thank for sharing but I have a question when have you been on this island ?
Thank you for watching! It was May of this year!
@@JanryAtienza oh thanks for this quickly answer , my wife and I will go in march 2024 ..have a nice day ..
@reglisse42 weather should be nice around that time have a nice trip!
Hello po, walking distance lang po ba from La Playa going to Kota beach and MJ Square?
Hello! Not so much! pero malapit lang siguro around 15minutes?
got it! thank you!@@JanryAtienza
Hi! I found your video very helpful for first-time travelers to Bantayan like us. I would like to ask if hanggang anong oras po kaya ang bus terminal at port? Our flight back to Manila will be at 9pm. Thank you!
Thank you! We weren’t sure about this kasi inconsistent yung info online kaya inagahan na lang namin.
Oh, I see. Thank you!
@@missjulyn Enjoy Bantayan!
@@JanryAtienza Is wifi available at La Playa Estrella Beach Resort?
@@missjulyn yes! They do have wifi
hello po alam nio po ba oras nang check in and out nila sa resort? thank you so much
Hello! 2PM ang check in but if the room is available already, they accommodate you agad. Check out is 12nn!
Hey kuya watching you Video from germany gusto ko bumisita sa bantayan pag uwi ko ask ko lang magkano binayad nyo sa Taxi from airpor mactan? Wow mahabanis din pla ng travel sa bus😮😢. Ganda ng Sand by the way may mga tours din ba dyan? Or sa lugar na yan Beach lang talaga
Hello! Thank you for watching! Sa taxi 200+ if I remember correctly. Sobrang ganda ng beach and yes may tours rin sila like visiting the mangrove park, a lagoon, some cliffs, churches, etc.
@@JanryAtienza thankyo so much for responding realy appriciated that New Subscriber hav a nice day🙂
Hello! I’m planning my trip to Cebu and wanted to stay in Bantayan island for 3d2n. How was the transpo po within the island? From hotel to restaurants to kota beach and back to hotel? Thanks po in advance!
Hello! Kapag gabi na wala na masyadong masakyan but sa araw marami naman trike especially kapag nasa malapit ka lang sa center. Pag malayo ka sa center pwede mo kunin number ng trike na nasakyan mo para masundo or mahatid ka if you need.
If marunong ka magmotor rent ka na lang motor :)
nice content🫡
Thank you for watching!
Hello! Paano po kayo nakapunta from La Playa to MJ Square? Tryk po ba? And how much po? Thank you
Hello! Trike ang sinakyan namin, P20 isa.
Hi po, nice ba yung beachfront nang la playa? wala namang seaweeds or hindi masyadong fine yung sand?
Hello! Malinis sya and malayo ung malalim na waters, sand is not as fine compared sa Boracay but fine enough for me. Walang seaweeds.
thank you po :)@@JanryAtienza
Mad maganda köye beach view super beautiful
Wala bang jellyfish? We're planning to visit Bantayan by August and I am a little concerned.
From our experience, wala naman but I would take extra precaution because of the recent news.
@@JanryAtienza Good to hear, we too will take extra precaution. Thank you for the response. God Bless!
@KL-bz3sp aside from that, our family enjoyed it very much! Such a peaceful, underrated destination. Hope it stays that way!
How long po yung delay ng flight nyo? And how much po entrance fee sa kota beach if hindi po dun nakacheck in?
Hello! Less than 30 mins lang naman yung delay and no entrance fee sa Kota Beach.
@@JanryAtienza thank you idol.
Do you think 2 days are enough? Just to enjoy the beach
2 days kami andito and we didn’t want to leave! Pero if relaxed beach time pwede na siguro.
We spent 2 days here and we didn’t want to leave but if you just want to relax in the beach, it may work for you!
Hello. Ilang minutes po yung La Playa to Kota beach?
Hello! Siguro 5-10 minutes sa tricycle lang.
@@JanryAtienza thank you. 🙆💟
How many hours needed from cebu to bantayan?
6 hours ride - Mactan Airport to Cebu City to Hagnaya Port to Bantayan. Rough but sweet!
How's the night life? bars/clubs/dancing
Not as much compared to the likes of Boracay or Siargao but there's a decent amount to party at.
Malakas po signal ng data or wifi sa hotel nyo? Kaya mkapag work?
Globe is okay, kaya naman for work!
anong room type po kayo nag stay?
Hi! This is Deluxe Beach Room.
hi question lang po, maganda po ba ang signal sa bantayan? planning to work po kasi.
Hi! Yes! Did not have any issues using my data (Globe) and malakas ung internet ng wifi sa La Playa (where we stayed).
@@JanryAtienza Thanks so much!
Pwide po magtanong magkanu ang per head papunta sa bantayan island? At kong may sasakyan na dala magkanu ang bayad sa sasakyan? Pla. Kasi mamin pumunta ng bantayan island galing naman ng istancia iloilo
Depende sa bus na sasakyan nyo ung pamasahe around 300 hindi po ako sure sa sasakyan. Then iba pa ung bayad sa ferry naman.
need po ba talaga ng med cert sa la playa?
Hello! Not sure now kasi last year pa to when it was more strict.
@@JanryAtienza may atm po ba near aplaya nung nag visit kayo last year?
yes meron sa bandang center@@chasekenya3496
Malakas po ba yung internet sa resort sa bantayan?
Sa pinagstayan namin, yes! Around Sta Fe malakas internet ng globe.
Ung bus po ba meron cr?
Hello! Walang CR, ordinary bus lang sya.
may wifi po kaya sila?
They do! Malakas wifi nila esp for working.
Are there ATMs on the island?
Yes! I've seen some ATMs in Santa Fe, also banks.
Thanks for the swift response.
Love ur vlogs! They are really entertaining and helpful. Keep it up! ❤
Glad you liked them! Thank you so much for the comment, naappreciate ko!
Hello please help, need information lang po, first time travelling from albay bicol to bantayan island.
please correct me if I'm wrong, eto yung alam kong steps.
From albay airport - cebu aiport.
- sakay taxi - North Bus terminal
-Baba sa Hagnaya port -( Get a ticket )
-Sakay ferry boat - Bantayan Island
Yes perfect!
thankyouu! Also if pabalik, vise versa lang po?@@JanryAtienza
@Orewa_Bryan hindi ko lang sure exactly yung pabalik pero should be the same almost kasi nakaprivate van na kami pauwi dahil dumaan pa kami ng San Rem.
No sign of oil spilled...from February
Didn't notice! It's like paradise here!
Hello, kamusta po ang service ng La playa? May nakikita kasi akong sobrang bad reviews sa google😢
Not aware of the bad reviews because we have experienced the opposite. Bait ng staff from the reception to the utilities. May free shuttle service pa.
same.. dito pa naman na coconsider namin mag stay,,, kaso ang dami bad reviews sa tripadvisor, and sobrang konti ng pics ng resort wala akong idea ano room pipiliin ko
@@carlal0o I honestly don't know where the bad reviews are coming, but these are the experiences of others so we cannot invalidate them, this being said, we didn't actually experience anything bad during our stay - pwedeng nagimprove na sila from the past, idk haha but yeah we loved it here.
Why do you still wear a mask? Still mandatory?
In the airport yes!
If you go to Bantayan, avoid Crazy Frank from Swampcast.
What is this? A restaurant?
@@JanryAtienza No, a crazy old man from New York who lives there. His crazy rants are archived on a UA-cam channel called Frank Swampcast. People should avoid him.
Bakit ka naka mask e 2023 nah.
They require it before sa airport and airlines pero hopefully hindi na.
Batayan island nice place but the room looks dated and overpriced
Yes it can be improved but we had a nice stay!
Why do you have to wear mask?
This was last year, I’m with my fam, I didn’t want to catch anything and ruin the trip.
What's with the mask. Unless n95 they don't work.
This was 2023. We just want to be cautious.
why you wear a mask when talking ?
They require it in the airport + For safety
@@JanryAtienza
No they don’t
@@leondeleon4949 when we traveled they do ask us to put it they even have masks to giveaway
💤 😴 💤
Nyt nyt
Nice vlog but please consider not wearing a mask at least when there is nobody around you. Mask will scare foreign tourists away.
Thank you! Taking note of this the next time!
