Charisma Beach Resort

Charisma Beach Resort sits right on Solangon Beach in San Juan, with a mix of rooms from a backpackers' dorm to deluxe rooms, mahogany rooms and bamboo beach bungalows — five deluxe, two beachfront, plus a standard room and mahogany rooms. Expect roughly ₱2,800-4,500 ($50-80) a night for a standard room, with free Wi-Fi, free parking and a tropical garden around the outdoor pool.

TripAdvisor rates it 4.1/5 from over 150 reviews (#5 of 27 hotels on Siquijor Island) — guests consistently praise the tranquil garden setting, friendly staff and good-value food at the on-site restaurant. Worth knowing before you book: the pool is small and can get warm with little shade, some rooms are cramped with few outlets and inconsistent hot water, and the beach itself is shallow, so it's really only swimmable at high tide. Wi-Fi can also be patchy, as on much of the island.
