Abigail SEasy experience, bedding was clean, staff were helpful, slept fairly well. Once the boat starts moving you can also move bunks if there are free ones which meant we could leave the busy aisle and go to a much quieter one

Rachel LThe ferry wasn't my first choice of mode of travel but my flight got cancelled. I was plesantly surprised. Boat left on time (we could board early to chill) and arrive as scheduled. Beds were okay. There was a possibility to buy food on board.
I didn't need to print my ticket - just exhanged it at the port during check-in.

Ronquillo AThe ferry did not leave on time at 9pm. It left at 10pm. Cokaliong always leaves on time. The passengers were only allowed to enter the boat at 8:30pm. When in fact, they were instructed to be in the terminal 2 hours before. Cokaliong lets their passengers on the boat 2 hours before departure so they can rest early.
The tourist bunkbeds had no outlets for chargers. Cokaliong has outlets per bed.
The arrival in Surigao was delayed by 2 hours! The trip lasted for 12 hours. Not 10hours! Adding stress to the passengers. Cokaliong always arrives very early in Surigao. Always ahead of schedule. Never again Starlight!

Liam RIt was a great way to avoid the late booking of a flight which would have been 5x this. I had a comfortable and safe journey - recommend you come tired so that you can sleep, and bring earplugs and an eyemask. Totally safe and viable if not long alternative to get around PH.

Carmen Mthe only thing to improve are the instruction to get to the port ( pier4 does not say anything if everybody need to go to gate 3 first, hard and confusing also for the taxi driver
Everything else was very good
