The only reason why I wanted to visit Tibiao was to experience the HOT KAWA BATH. Gusto kong ma feel ung asa loob ako ng isang malaking kawali. Tapos may apoy or baga sa ilalim. Un lang okay na ako. But I got more than what I expected.
HOW TO GO?
Tibiao is about 2-2.5 hours away from Caticlan Jetty Port. Check the buses across the port heading Iloilo via San Jose, Antique and ask manong kundoktor to drop you off in Petron of Brgy. Importante, Tibiao. Bus Fare PHP 100 - PHP150. In Petron gasoline station you'll see Kasa Raya Inn. It's just along the high way and you won't missed it.
If your coming from Iloilo take a bus going to Caticlan and tell them the same thing as above. Travel time would be 2-3 hours. Bus Fare PHP150- PHP200.
After tons of reading and researching I decided to booked with Kasa Raya Inn for our accommodation. The location was very accessible. But never did I thought that we will get more than what we deserve. Sir Alex Moscoso Española was so kind enough to gave us good rates. He even upgraded our non AC room to AC room since may walk-in customers na need nung non AC binigay na nya at kami ay nalipat sa AC room kasi we will stay there for two nights ayaw nya kasi kami ma hassle. His always after the safety of his guests and sobrang naramdaman namin lahat yun.
Iba ka Sir Alex, aside from being the owner of Kasa Raya, he also manages the gasoline station, tour guide, singer, dancer , chef , barista , carpenter , teacher, biker and nature lover. Thank you again Sir Alex we really had a great time. Check this link and message Sir Alex for any questions and reservations.

Kasa Raya Inn got a restaurant so food will never be a problem. And yes Sir Alex is the chef.
