Way Shack Hostel

We had the best stay here! This small quiet hostel is in the perfect location if you have come to Oslob to see the whale sharks. It's right opposite the entrance to the walk in tickets but also if you want to explore it's an easy 15 mins motorcycle or TukTuk ride into Oslob town. We found Oslob so charming and authentic, all the people are so welcoming and friendly. Ken who is the main host at Way Shack is brilliant. He made our 2 nights stay in Oslob so relaxing and helped us with everything. He has good English so easy to communicate with and is very professional and personable. The room is basic but clean and comfortable with a large space for luggage.

Spacious room, modern, friendly staff, very convenient location to the whale shark

It was right across the street from whale shark assembly point , so it was very convenient for 3am wake up . The guy who works at reception was amazing. He was helping us to queue for whale shark watching at night and was very nice talking to him overall , made our stay there pleasant

very good host. helped to us a lot! he helped us with tickets for swimming with sharks, found us a ferry to panglao. very close to place with shark

The location for whale shark swimming. We did it with a help of Ken, our host. He was so nice and helpful ❤️ he also booked us tickets for fair and made sure we make it to the port to catch it in time, as the schedule is fluid.
