This place was really cute, felt like a little bed and breakfast as the staff are so so lovely and accommodating. Wifi was good which is rare in Philippines 😂 The shared common area outside is a lovely place to sit, read and socialise with others. Free drinking water, hot water, coffee etc is a nice touch, you can also buy some bits from their mini shop if you wanted cans/noodles etc. Room is a good size, beds are pretty standard for the Philippines, hardish mattresses & a sheet for bedding but you make do. in terms of location, it’s good because you’re away from all the noise, just be mindful that the road to get to the place is a dirt track so go very slow if you’re on a scooter! Well signposted though 👌🏼

Shared bathrooms not checked often enough or cleaned often enough but you do have your own bathroom in the room anyway (only cold water in the room though so if you want hot shower, you have to use shared bathroom) 😊

I recently stayed at Mingche Apartment and I couldn’t be happier with my experience. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with warm smiles and a genuine sense of hospitality. The owners were incredibly friendly and always ready to help with anything you need, making the stay feel truly welcoming and comfortable. The room was very nice, clean, and had access to a private bathroom. While there was no hot water in my room, there is a shared shower with hot water available just outside the room. In my opinion, it’s a great solution—if you don’t mind a cold shower, you don’t need to pay more(for bigger apartment with hot shower), but if you prefer a hot shower, it’s available nearby. Mingche Apartment provides everything you’ll need—drinking water, a kettle with coffee and tea, and even a small shop where you can purchase basic items and pay at the reception. There is also free parking for scooters, which is convenient if needed. The only downside is that the road leading to the apartment is a bit bumpy, so be careful if you’re driving. Thank you again for a lovely stay! Beata & Marcin"

Beautiful place with spacious room, good bathroom and nice garden. Super clean, water and coffee/tea free all day. Very nice breakfast. The location is far enough from the super noisy road, but close enough to reach restaurants and beach (5/7mins walk). Super friendly staff :)

Nothing really :) The only thing is taxi driver trying to cheat you. The hotel is in a narrow unpaved road off the Main Street. Taxi drivers will try to leave you off the main road where there is the hotel sign and just get you to walk from there. Make sure you agree with them in advance to get you to the entrance of the hotel as it’s a bit bumpy but totally doable. (It can feel a long way in the middle of the day with backpacks or luggage). They just can’t be bothered to drive you there but would still charge you lots of money, so they’d better go all the way!

A nice quiet place. The room was really clean. The outside chairs and umbrellas were really nice to have breakfast. Water refilling and hot water for free in self-service was so convenient ! The place is a little remote so it is quiet, but really close to Alona and Danao (3min by scooter). We got a scooter for 340php per day to be more free. The land-lady was really nice ! She organized the tricycle pick-up and drop-off. Well maintained place ! Thank you so much !

The air-con was loud and a bit old. The road is rocky to get there but you get used to it, and you live in the real Philippines way. There are many dirt roads leading to their home. There could be a chair in the room, but you have chairs right outside.

The place is incredibly relaxing and quiet. It's a little bit removed from the hustle and bustle but relatively close to everything, which was perfect for a peaceful getaway. The hosts were super friendly and accommodating, always ready to assist with transfers, car rentals, and anything else we needed. The Wi-Fi was stable, and everything was just as described. While the access road to the guest house is a bit rough, it's definitely doable and well worth it for the calm and quiet you find once you arrive. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a quiet retreat!

The access road to the location was a bit rough, and we were traveling with two small kids in a stroller. While we anticipated some difficulty and managed to navigate it, i wouldn't recommend the path for strollers or individuals with disabilities due to the uneven terrain.

Excellent value for money, clean, friendly and attentive hosts. They also offer laundry and bike hire from the property at an extremely reasonable price which was an added bonus. The room was clean and well prepared when we arrived. Air conditioning worked and kept the room cool when we were inside. Also great water pressure from the shower and taps!

Access road is unsealed - this is not the properties fault just something to note. We would have also preferred firmer pillows but that's just being picky!

Free mango float for the new year 💖, drinking water, coffee, parking space for motorbike, squeakyclean, close to Alona Beach and restaurants, power outlets near bed, WIFI, garden, balcony, very warm and friendly staff, quiet place good for resting after partying and having fun in the busy parts of Alona

No mirror outside the bathroom, no dresser to put your bag and clothes, the road going there is a bit challenging especially if you won’t be renting/bringing any vehicle but yeah I’ve already learned this before booking as I’ve already read other reviews from previous guests.

We had a great stay here at Mingche! It’s very peaceful and has everything you need for a self catering stay. We wanted to cook food and they had everything we needed to accommodate this. It’s super quiet away from the noise of Alona. We especially enjoyed our coffee in the morning in the garden. So peaceful in a beautiful environment. The staff were also very accommodating with anything we needed.

The road can be muddy during rainy season. Seen lots of guests shoes trainers muddy and wet. But we adapted, went rogue and wore flip flops 😎😅.

Nice quiet apartment with a comfortable bed, good shower and a/c. The staff are great. 10-15min walk to the beach. Good in-house laundry service. Good value for money. The coffee station and the kind offer of fresh fruit from the garden were a very nice touch. Airport pick-up and drop-off for a small fee was also greatly appreciated. I will definitely stay there again.

As mentioned in other reviews, the road there isn't in great condition. This didn't affect me greatly, as it didn't rain during my two week stay and I walk everywhere. That being said, care should be taken after dark, especially if you've had a few drinks. It would be a challenge in wet conditions, for someone with mobility issues or riding a scooter there.

We had an absolutely fantastic time staying at Mingche Apartment’s place. From start to finish, everything exceeded our expectations. The communication was smooth and prompt, making the booking process hassle-free. Upon arrival, we were warmly greeted and given a free drinks 😊The space was immaculately clean and beautifully decorated, providing a cozy and welcoming atmosphere. Located in the heart of the city, this place was perfect for our getaway. The host provided excellent tips on local eateries and attractions. Our host went above and beyond to make sure we felt at home. 💟 Overall, our experience was nothing short of amazing. We cannot recommend Mingche Apartments and their property highly enough. Thank you for such a memorable stay—we will definitely be back! 🥰
