🚨 SCAM ALERT – FAKE PAGE 🚨

Dear guests, friends & community,
we have been informed that a FAKE page is currently impersonating our ArtVilla Camiguin and actively contacting people.

⚠️ The scammers are claiming that: “Our previous official page was suspended by Meta and this is the new official page.”

👉 This is FALSE. This is a scam.
We want to make this very clear:

✔️ We have NOT created a new page
✔️ Our original page is active and secure
✔️ We would NEVER ask for payments via Facebook messages

🚫 Please do NOT: – send money via Messenger
– pay any “fees” (like gate fees or similar)
– trust booking offers from other pages

✔️ Official bookings are ONLY possible via: – Airbnb
– our official website
– direct contact with us through verified channels

If you have been contacted by this fake page:

➡️ Please report the account immediately
➡️ Do not interact or send any money

If you are unsure about any message or booking:
💬 Contact us directly – we are happy to confirm everything for you.

We truly appreciate your support in reporting this page and helping protect others 🙏

✨ ArtVilla – a new chapter from 2026 ✨

Over the past years, ArtVilla has grown into what it truly is today:
a calm, stylish and personal luxury homestay by the sea.

Starting 2026, we are gently evolving our concept –
making ArtVilla more flexible, while keeping the same atmosphere our guests love.

🌿 What’s new?

January–May & October–December 2026:

ArtVilla is offered as a Private Suite Stay
→ one spacious sea view suite
→ ideal for 1–2 guests (up to 3 guests with an optional extra bed)

June–September 2026:

ArtVilla becomes an Exclusive Villa Stay
→ one or two suites (Sunset View & Ocean Breeze)
→ for 1–2 guests in one suite
→ or up to 4–5 guests when both suites are booked (with optional extra bed)

Perfect for couples, friends or small groups seeking privacy without excess.

💛 What stays the same?

✔️ Peace & privacy
✔️ Personal hosting
✔️ Sea views, pool, terrace & shared spaces
✔️ A relaxed, refined island lifestyle

ArtVilla remains boutique, calm and intentionally small.

Please note: We don´t do booking & payment trasnactions via Facebook-Messanger (no GCash either). Only via our website and plattforms like Booking.com, Airbnb,...

📩 For availability & direct bookings, send us a message to:

Warm regards,
Sonja & the ArtVilla team

🌞 Yippie – Superhost again! 🎉

So happy (and a little proud) to be a Superhost once more! 🙌
Every time it happens, it feels like finishing a marathon – minus the medal, but with just as much sweat. 🏃‍♀️💨

Because being a Superhost isn’t just about nice guests and shiny stars.

It means...
✨ staying kind and calm – even when the typhoon hits, the Wi-Fi gives up, or someone messages at 11 pm on a Saturday night asking if the sugar for their morning coffee has been refilled 😅 (just saying – this is a holiday home, not a hotel 😉).

✨ juggling local staff, cultural quirks, and mountains of paperwork – with patience, humor, and a good dose of tropical resilience.

✨ keeping quality high on a tiny island in the Philippines – no matter if it’s high season, public holiday, or yet another power cut.

All of that, 7 days a week, 24 hours a day, rain or shine, sunshine or storm. 🌴⛈️

So if you ever stay somewhere – your review truly matters! ✨
It’s not just feedback; it’s a little act of kindness and recognition for those who pour heart, time, and energy into creating your stay. ❤️

And if you’re wondering whether hosts ever get a day off… well, we’re working on that. 😉

Warm hugs from paradise,
Sonja
