Welcome us at the Soffta Surf Ranch!
"Soffta" is a Swedish slang for "Take it easy/relax/enjoy" and thats the vibe we like to stand for.
We are running this homestay/hostel together in a small open minded and friendly community.
It's the perfect place to have a vacation, meet new friends from all over the world and a good starting point to explore the rest of the island.
We have a big spacious property with a lot of plants and places to hang out. It is located 50 meters inside from the sometimes busy and noisy tourism road.
Location is A+ in the heart of General Lunas main tourist spot, there are many restaurants and party venues close by and only a 250 meters walk to the beach.
It is only around 1 km to G.L town for grocery shopping and about a 5 minute drive to the famous Cloud 9 surfing wave(and theirs heaps of other waves in very close distance from us).
Some of our reviews from previous guests:

"Just a great atmosphere!!! You'll never feel alone with all these great people hanging around. 💚" - Ka Sk
"I really enjoyed my stay at this place. Especially thanks to the friendly staff (mostly local musicians and surfers) who were always ready to help with anything
(renting a scooter, organizing a transfer to the airport, or just drinking with me...) I will definitely return to Siargao and will definitely stay in Soffta again." - Jan, CZ

- Please dont leave food inside the rooms, leave and store your food in the kitchen.
