Footprints Beach Resort

We had the best time with Owen and Anjie. The Footprints resort setting was great. It felt like staying with a family (but a very nice and fun one!) We stayed in an air-conditioned bungalow facing the sea. The room was very clean and comfortable. The food (and cocktails!) were very good, the staff was super friendly and helpful. Unfortunately, the weather was not always good (we went in January, probably the end of the rainy season) but Owen and Anjie were amazing hosts and helped us have a great time anyway. They embraced us as part of their family and even took us to tour part of the island.

The best hosts in the best resort ＜3 The perfect place to unwind and relax with spacious rooms right by the lovely beach. The food is great and the atmosphere is so chill that it’s impossible not to relax.

Some improvements have been made to the resort since I last stayed here in 2020 eg marquee in the garden area for group seating and a volleyball net on the beach and a floating pontoon that you can swim out to.This time round I booked one of the four beachfront units with balcony, table and chairs. My room was spacious, modern looking and clean. Lighting throughout more than adequate.Everything worked fine. Plenty of shelving to lay clothes as well as coathangers. The shower recess is segregated. Water from the shower was lukewarm but the water pressure was excellent. The food at the restaurant is above mainland prices but that is to be expected when you are staying at a secluded location on an island with hundreds of metres of beach to yourself. The other couple of resorts to the north appeared closed to me leaving Footprints as the only viable option.Some may say it looks pricey but for me the price point is reasonable when you add everything up for what this resort has to offer. It is a holiday experience you won't forget which is why I returned as part of my 'revisiting some of my favourite places in the Philippines' trip. The owners Owen and Angie cannot be more friendly and helpful to their guests. Their two young children and four dogs make up what feels like you are staying with family friends. Overall, an experience to be experienced.

Stunning spot right on the beach, on the western side of Tablas. It is family-run by Angie and Öjvind, with very nice and helpful staff. I had the best X-mas in many, many years with the family, another family (Nicks) and staff. With turkish peppar-shots, glögg and entertainment. Will definitely try to come back ( 5 years Owen!?😉) A very big Salamat Po! 🤗

Relaxing, laid back, comfortable. We’ve stayed at Footprints several times & always find it enjoyable. We travel constantly from island to island & really like Tablas & Footprints. Reminds us of Boracay before it was commercialized. Food is delicious and reasonably priced. Tablas Island is off the beaten path so getting some ingredients is challenging but they are usually well stocked. We highly recommend this place.
