The riverhouse is a little bit of paradise, set high above the river overlooking the mangroves and forest. The setting is magnificent. However what really makes this place so special is Judith, the owner, Bing ( hope I've spelt this correctly) and all the wonderful staff. They are so attentive, friendly and go out of their way to ensure that you have the best time here possible. We stayed here twice and on the first occasion my husband was sick. Judith and Bing both were so helpful in providing us with food to help, medication and advice. They showed a lot of concern . On our second visit we were to participate in many of the activities that Judith helped organise including seeing fireflies on the river, kayaking, snorkeling with dugongs and getting a massage in my room. The food is wonderful, with a great choice and a packed lunch and breakfast was provided when we left very early on a trip. This was an absolutely wonderful place to stay and I can highly recommend it.

Was here on the north side to dive. There is a reason everyone mentions Judith when reviewing the place, she is lovely and genuinely loves connecting with her guests and making them feel welcome. Nothing is too big of an ask! Rooms are of a high standard for Coron, if you can get the room with a river view do it. AC works well and the rooms are spacious and beds super comfortable. WiFi is only in the lounge but that's fine. Food is really good, home cooked and they do special requests. All the food I asked for take away on dive trips was amazing and packed super well and reasonably priced too. Stay here even if you're not a diver and just want to experience a different side of Coron

A paradise in the jungle. Birds sing every day, and sometimes they even visit your balcony. In the evening, you can hear the charming sounds of house geckos. It's the perfect spot to relax and enjoy nature. Incredibly beautiful mangrove forests. Kayaking down the river allows you to admire birds and the stunning scenery. Spacious rooms. Everything is beautifully designed with great attention to detail. Fresh flowers on the table added a nice touch. The restaurant is fantastic! Highly recommend trying the wild crab from the mangrove forests – a rare delicacy that's hard to find elsewhere. The staff feels like family! And of course, don't miss the chance to swim with the dugongs!!!!

We loved the peace and quiet and the view was absolutely beautiful. It was a unique experience staying in the middle of the rainforest and river. The staff took care of arranging our tours and was absolutely wonderful at all times, the kindness and warmth the staff provided is unlike anywhere else in the world. The local firefly and island tours were definitely worth it. Packed lunches and towels were also thoughtfully provided. All the meals we had (whether Filipino or international dishes) were SUBERB! We always looked forward to breakfast. Highly recommend for all travelers to get the real experience of nature plus all the amenities of comfort and cleanliness.

The staff were super friendly and helpful. The views were incredible, the food was the best we've had in the Philippines and the location was perfect for diving/snorkelling with dugongs. There's a private pier that the dugong operator (dugong dive center) picks you up from. It is out the way from everything else but scooters are cheap to hire (and brought directly to the Riverhouse). If you like wildlife, it's nice for that too. We saw plenty of birds, lizards and a palawan stink badger! Lastly, hot water/pressure was fine. Would highly recommend. I'd love to go back one day.
