Camp Rules

 

General Rules

  1. Get Lost will not be liable for any loss or injuries inside or within the vicinity of our site. Any inconveniences that the guests may encounter due to acts of nature, calamities, or any unforeseen events will not be the responsibility of the camp site.

  2. Only our own vehicles are allowed to be brought all the way to the campsite. We request all guest vehicles to park at the back portion of our property. Drivers are prohibited from sleeping in the cars.

  3. The pool may be used from 7:00 am to 10:00 pm. Swimming at the beach is from 6:00 am to 6:00 pm. We recommend bringing your own life vests or floaters.

  4. We have allocated one bath and one pool towel per guest. Please refrain from bringing the site’s towels to the beach.

  5. No smoking on site, except in designated smoking areas. Violations are subject to a penalty of Php 3,000. Damages will also be chargeable to the guest.

  6. Please bring your own toiletries.

  7. Our cafe is still being constructed, but we can assist you in ordering from nearby restaurants. There is also a shared kitchenette and grilling area on site if you would like to cook your own meals. Please be mindful of ants and other insects that may infest your food so kindly bring airtight containers and coolers.

  8. Guests are requested to wash all kitchen and dining items used prior to checkout. Failure to do so would entail a Php 400 charge.

  9. We provide pipe-in music and discourage playing your own music, including karaoke, unless your volume level is at an acceptable level that will not disturb other camp guests. Exceptions for events apply.

  10. While we offer some items that go beyond the usual camping amenities, please note that we are not a hotel and there will be no housekeeping or room service during your stay. All guests are requested to clean up after themselves and to practice proper waste segregation.

  11. We do not have any facilities that process glass in our area. We request that you bring them with you upon checkout.

  12. Events, parties, and commercial shoots are subject to approval. Kindly send us a message before scheduling any of the above.


Check-in, Checkout, Cancellation Policy

  1. Check-in starts at 2:00 PM. Please contact us via Messenger, Instagram or +63 960 266 8879 if your arrival is beyond 4:00 PM.

  2. Early check-in can be accommodated depending on availability. Early check-in rate is Php 500 per hour per tent.

  3. Please prepare Php 2,000 security deposit per tent upon check-in (cash or bank transfer). This will be refunded upon checkout after the tents are inspected and our staff confirms that there are no damages / losses.

  4. Checkout is strictly at 12:00 PM unless prior arrangement is made (depending on availability). Late checkout charge is Php 500 per hour per tent.

Reschedule requests made less than 7 days before the original check-in date is not allowed as we won’t have a chance to find other guests to take your place with so little time left.


Guest Access

  1. Campsite guests get to enjoy the beachfront part of our property and the back lot is our personal space. While you are welcome to park your cars at the back lot, we request that your drivers be booked elsewhere instead of sleeping in the vehicles. We can assist you in finding them off-site quarters a few minutes away from our campsite.

  2. Given the natural terrain of the property, the campsite is not wheelchair accessible, but we can drive guests with physical limitations directly to their assigned tents.

  3. Our mattresses are all on the floor. Tables and chairs are also low and it might be uncomfortable for guests with knee concerns. We can stack up the mattresses to make it a bit higher, but number of maximum guests per tent will be reduced. We can also move some higher furniture to your porch, but this is subject to availability.


Pet Guidelines

  1. Pets are allowed on site with corresponding fees included in your statement of account. Please provide upon booking the number of pets that you intend to bring.

  2. Pets are welcome to swim in the pool, but please be mindful of other guests as some may not be comfortable swimming with pets, especially large dogs. Kindly bring the appropriate pet accessories (ie. towels, shampoo, blow dryer, etc.)

  3. Please clean up after your pets and dispose their solid waste in the non-recyclables trash bin.

  4. We have our own furry family members on site and there are also a lot of stray dogs at the beach. If your pets have tendencies, kindly ensure that they are leashed or in their mobile crates to avoid any accidents at the campsite.

  5. Please provide documents to show that your pets are up to date with their vaccinations, especially rabies.

  6. There are a couple of stray cats that enter the campsite even after several attempts of getting them to leave. Please do not feed or play with them as they tend to stick around and even enter the tents. We will not be held liable for bites or scratches that you may get from engaging with the cats.


Sustainability

We strive to minimize our carbon footprint.

  1. We harvest energy from the sun during the day to power our facilities, and store energy in the batteries for the evening.

  2. As we do our best to minimize our carbon footprint, we ask our guests to do so as well by turning off the air conditioner when there is there is no one inside the tent. Even during sunny days, our pawid roofs plus the ocean breeze keep the tents and outdoor areas comfortable. Make sure you open those tent windows!

  3. Our sinks have potable water. The water is filtered before storage, then softened, and filtered again for you to drink. We request that you bring your own reusable water containers to minimize the use of plastic bottles.

  4. We compost our food wastes. Kindly use the food scrap bins available on-site.

  5. We help recycle plastics by soaping and rinsing them, then delivering to Alon & Araw Club, a non-profit organization heavily involved in coastal cleanups and recycling programs. Please segregate your waste by using the correct bins onsite.

  6. We heavily encourage the use of the campsite’s plates, utensils, and cups. While we understand the convenience of using disposable items, the use of single use plastics has a huge impact on our environment and we do not have any trash collection program that helps us dispose our waste. If you would like someone to wash dishes for you, we can hire a dedicated helper for your group for a minimal fee. If you would still prefer to use disposable items, kindly bring them with you upon checkout.

  7. We do not have any facilities that process glass in our area. We request that you bring them with you upon checkout.


FAQs

  1. Why don’t you allow instant booking? The campsite is in our yard and we want to make sure that our guests are the right fit for our place and our family members (humans and dogs alike).

  2. I thought your place is pet friendly. Why do you ask so many questions about the pet/s that we plan to bring? Just like humans, we want to make sure that your pets are the right fit for our home. We also want to ensure the safety of the other guests and we are hoping to accommodate only responsible pet owners at the campsite. Soiled sheets and rugs, bug infestations, and the like will entail deep cleaning and possibly extermination, the cost of which will be chargeable to the pet owner.

  3. I thought your place is pet friendly. Why aren’t we allowed to feed the stray cats? As much as we love all types of pets, the stray cats will keep on coming back when fed, and our three dogs don’t like it. The stray cats also become a nuisance as they try to get the guests’ food. Most of our pet owner guests also bring dogs and we want to avoid any chaos during their stay at the campsite.

  4. Why are small kids counted in the fees? Most kids entail additional cleaning on our end, as they are prone to soiling sheets, leaving food in the tents, etc. Damages and losses are mostly caused by kids rather than responsible adults.

  5. Why do we need to pre-plan our meals? We do not have food delivery apps available in our area. Most of the food suppliers here need time to gather ingredients, especially since the supply is not consistent. These are mostly small and homegrown establishments, and they’ll need longer lead time to prepare your meals, especially for big groups.

  6. Why can’t we bring our vehicles all the way to the campsite? Unless the site is booked exclusively by an overlanding group, our vehicle is the only one allowed to enter all the way to the campsite to bring your luggage, among others. A lot of vehicles get stuck in the sand and we also want to keep the area clear of sand dust, which is usually caused by drivers not used to our terrain.

  7. If your site is solar powered, why does the electricity fluctuate at the campsite? During sunny days, our solar panels can provide nearly 100% of our energy needs and recharge our batteries. However, during nights when our municipal power is off, our current battery capacity isn't sufficient to power the entire property. Additionally, fluctuations in municipal power supply can occur due to local grid load, despite our efforts to enhance reliability by incorporating our own transformer. As a result, there may be periods without power. We're actively working on prioritizing essential services to ensure your safety and comfort during your stay. Thank you for your understanding as we strive to improve our energy efficiency and resilience.
