I reviewed Eco Village Lodge in Moalboal, Cebu, so you can decide if it is worth it.

I will not explain how to find this place, because you should not stay there.

Where do we even start on this one? It was the most surreal experience. Let`s start with the beginning. Upon arrival, we come into this beautiful green garden with a fantastic native-style building with bamboo. If you have seen the video, you can see how amazing this place looks.

The rooms are straightforward, with a toilet and shower outside, but you have a shared living space with a TV, although you will spend most of your time in the garden. They have hammocks and places to sit and enjoy the surroundings; it is all good except for the price of food and coffee. If I remember correctly, the beer was in a reasonable price range.

The problem with this place is not the site itself but the owner. One night, we were sitting outside, just Jessa, him, and me, and he started talking about conspiracy theories. I was intrigued about what this conversation would lead to, so I listened and, once in a while, threw in a question or two. After what must have been around two hours, his words were increasingly intense, and that was when Jessa excused herself into the room.

After about thirty more minutes, I started hinting that I needed to go to bed because we were getting up early, but he continued.

It was about powerful families who ruled the earth, and for the last one and a half hours, before I could finally pull myself away and join Jessa in our room, it was about him being an archangel. One of 114, or was it 114.000? I do not really remember, but I remember that he thought he was on earth to save humanity.

If conspiracy is your thing, or you want to meet a real archangel, this is the place to go. It is not for Jessa and me, so we will stay far away from that place for the rest of our lives.

Also, being an archangel, he should not tell Agoda we never showed up. I found out because I got a message saying my stay was canceled, and when I asked him about it, he said it was so he did not have to pay the percentage Agoda got for the stay since we booked through—very bad archangel.

The place itself is nice, but we think the owner should not have this type of interaction with guests. Also, we believe the owner may not be in his right mind and probably should be back in his country (Australia, I think it was) for some proper care.

For this location, I will not roll the dice. I strongly urge you to find other accommodation and avoid that place.

I hope you enjoy the video.
