I recently had another opportunity to visit Just Inn. Once again, my stay was nice, peaceful, and easy on the pocketbook. My total bill for an overnight stay was Php 1,300. This was for two persons, accommodations, some food, and a number of beers.

GENERAL VIEW

From the moment you arrive there, you will notice how beautiful the encompassing property is around Just Inn. The entire area, including walkways is lined in plants, shrubs, and low hanging trees of various species. The area is an absolutely beautiful, shady garden. The area is well maintained.

ROOM

The native style cottages can’t be beat. At Php 600, you get a clean room with air-con, a refrigerator, a separate dining room, a covered front porch with seating, and a cold water shower in the CR.

POOL

Just Inn has a small to medium sized swimming pool, offering depths ranging from 3 feet (~ 1 meter) on the shallow end, to almost 7 feet (~ 2 meters) on the deep end. The pool was clean, well maintained, and had ceramic tiles on the sides and bottom. The pool at Just Inn is one of the cleanest pools in which I have swum during my many years visiting and living in the Philippines.

The staff had no problems allowing us to swim at night, while powering the lighting in and around the pool area. They also delivered beers to the side of the pool for us.

MEALS

On the morning of the day we left, I had breakfast at Just Inn. I had an American breakfast that included toast, (beef) bacon, eggs, etc., for only Php 120. I felt as though it was a decently valued meal, as well as filling.

I can’t offer much more information on the meals at Just Inn, because I eat at Charito’s whenever possible, when I am in that area.

CHARITOS

Charito’s is small resto/bar located in Dalaguete Town. It is located on the left side as you are driving south. (Advice: Try the New York Strip steak sometime.) Charito’s also offers various mixed drinks and foods to satisfy most palates. Charito’s is located probably two (2) kilometers from Just Inn.

HOW TO GET THERE

Take the provincial highway out of the Metro Cebu Area. You will head south through Talisay, Minglanilla, Naga, and then through Carcar. (Continue south at the roundabout. Do not head toward Barili.) After passing Carcar, and about 10 kilometers later, you will go through Sibonga. Further south, you will arrive in the main part of Argao Town. Continue through Argao and you will be heading on to Dalaguete. This will become a nice, scenic ride while going through the province. The total driving time from Cebu City, should be about 2.25 to 2.50 hours, unless you drive like a minibus or Ceres Liner driver.

Once you enter Dalaguete Town, continue south out of town. (Once you pass the main part of town, you can see Charito’s on the left side of the highway.) After you have passed the main part of town, continue on south another kilometer or two. Be looking on the right side of the highway for a sign (like the highway signs we have in the west) reading “Just Inn”. Turn right just passed the sign and Just Inn will be up on your left.

I am sure you will enjoy your stay at Just Inn.
