La Vida Surf Camp offers a serene and homey atmosphere, highly praised for its friendly staff and owner, Ninio, who actively engages with guests and often goes the extra mile to ensure a pleasant stay. Guests appreciate the clean facilities, peaceful environment, and the opportunity to cook their own meals, which adds to the budget-friendly appeal. The camp is located just a two-minute walk from a public beach, making it a convenient base for exploring Samal Island. However, some reviews highlight issues such as the lack of nearby dining options and challenges in transportation, especially after dark. Additionally, a few guests reported unpleasant odors in the rooms and expressed dissatisfaction with the owner’s demeanor during their stay.
