hotéis em El Nido

Prós: Tudo! Passeios, instalações e os funcionários

Contras: Poderia ter um cardápio mais variado nas refeições

Prós: O resort é lindo, tudo limpo, os quartos extremamente confortáveis e equipe mto educada e prestativa. A comida é ótima!!!!

Contras: Dos horários restritos para os passeios da big e small lagoon. Fiquei neste hotel devido à facilidade para ir até essas atrações. Porém, desde o fim do ano passado os horários ficaram restritos. E como são início e fim do dia as lagoas estão sem sol oq impacta bastante na cor da água, que fica escura.

Prós: Adorámos TUDO, o lugar é simplesmente maravilhoso, pleno de natureza e rodeado de corais cheios de vida. Água quente e cristalina. Os passeios têm uma organização fantástica e muitos deles são gratuitos. Os funcionários são incrivelmente simpáticos e divertidos, muito amáveis, prestam um serviço de altíssima qualidade. A comida era excelente, muita escolha e tudo divinalmente fresco e cozinhado na perfeição.

Prós: A localização excelente. Serviço da equipe excelente. As atividades propostas muito boas.

Contras: A comida poderia ser melhor.

Prós: Convenient location on the same island as some “must see” attractions in El Nido area like Big and Small Lagoons so seeing them is easy and included in the list of free activities. Recent renovations have resulted in modern, clean and comfortable rooms and a beautiful medium-size swimming pool. Young staff is generally enthusiastic, smiling and polite. Three meals a day and transportation from and to the airport are included for all. Free welcome bottle of wine is a nice touch. The resort has a nice, informal vibe. Many guests arrive in larger groups celebrating anniversaries and other events with extended, often multigenerational families. This is a place for amateurs of swimming, boating, kayaking, snorkeling.and other water activities. The surrounding scenery of rocky islands everywhere is unique and breathtaking. Book activities early and bring a water-proof camera.

Contras: One element for possible criticism is food. On one hand you definitely won’t get hungry as the selection of dishes is decent and changes every day. On the other hand, few items appear exciting, well seasoned and of high quality considering the generally high standard (and cost) of the resort. Morning coffee is average at best, croissants can be old and Western-style cold cuts are sparse. At meal times guests seem to be going in circles around the buffet counters trying to find something interesting. Even some Filipino guests we spoke to echoed these sentiments regarding the selection of their national dishes. Overall this is admittedly nit picking and it will not ruin your stay.

Prós: Look no further. If you’re traveling from far away, spend the money and stay here. Best place in El Nido /Palawan.

Prós: The staff, the location was remote, peaceful family friendly it was wonderful.

Contras: Typhoon warning held back a lot of the activities. Out of the hotel control

Prós: Very glamour and the most amazing views

Contras: Nothing

Prós: Location is amazing and the nice options for your schedule during your stay

Prós: Miniloc Island is exceptional. There is a daily activity programme for boat trips/snorkeling/lagoon tours/jackfish feeding which is all included in the room cost, along with being able to take out a kayak or paddleboard at any time and explore the other nearby uninhabited islands. We even saw a turtle when we were snorkeling by the hotel! The staff are wonderful and the rooms are clean and comfortable (but not the largest). It's not the kind of place that you spend much time in your room so it didn't bother us, but I could imagine some would be disappointed with the room sizes with the cost per night. I'm vegetarian so it was difficult for me to find vegetarian food throughout our trip in the Philippines, but Miniloc always have two vegetarian dishes for breakfast, lunch and dinner. (One normally vegetables, the other carbs). The food did get a little repetitive for me, but i would imagine if you eat meat/fish then there is a lot of choice and it looked good quality. Some of the best we came accross in the Philippines.

Contras: The rooms are smaller than you would expect for the cost per night, but are clean and comfortable and have everything you need.

Prós: The place is really amazing if you have the money is the best place to stay in El Nido. You are in the same island that big lagoon so you can catch a kayak and be there in 10 min.

Contras: Is it too and for that kind of money you imagine something more expectacular (the hotel not the place, the place is amazing) The beach was not that great. For swimming you have to use sandals or something because the corals hurts.

Prós: Location, excursions,friendly staff

Prós: Villa was fantastic. Big, nicely decorated with enormous bathroom. View from the Beach villa was amazing. Very few guests everywhere, felt like you had an Island by yourself.

Contras: The food was not top of the line. Quite a lot that was out of stock. Also got food poisoned.

Prós: Exclusive, isolated island location with a slow, peaceful pace and gorgeous views of other islands across the water. Luxurious, stylish villas and excellent service all around. Some standard boat trips are complimentary and others are not but can be arranged at reasonable fees. Wi-fi works well. Airport pickup and boat transfers to and from the resort are well run and efficient. Many complimentary items in the suite include slippers, sun hats, a metal water bottle and a beach bag.

Contras: High prices in the restaurant. Breakfast buffet perfectly adequate but not outstanding as one might expect from a resort of that caliber and price bracket.

Prós: This resort is an absolute dream regarding the location and accommodation. We where staying in a Beach Villa and where fortunate to stay there with our two children. Very spacious, a lovely bath and a very comfortable bed. The views are breathtaking- you don’t need to leave your villa, really. Many (free) activities are offered, which are well organised and worth taking part. Staff was super friendly. Only downside was that we found it somewhat overpriced. We payed over € 1000/night incl breakfast for one room (for the four of us) and we didn’t feel it was that exclusive (location wise it was 10 stars!). The food was ok but not great (prices where reasonable though). And the Beach Bar, Restaurant and main building were not that attractive - nothing to hang out the entire evening. Pool Bar and Restaurant where beautiful and so of course was the terrace in front of our bungalow.

Prós: Beautiful island, service staff were great. Love the warm welcomes. Go to the beach bar and enjoy the live music by the bartender, & watch the sunset. Activities & boat staff were safe & informative.

Prós: Everything

Contras: I expect the best accomodation since I book the beach front villa. 1. when we arrived in the villa the coffee table in the terasse is felthy. 2. In our second night I just found out the bed sheets we sleep are all old and even have holes in duvet cover. But in fairness to the staff specially to housekeeping I know they were all brilliant and hard working but they need to keep an eye on details. 4. On our last night I have very bad tummy that I could sleep untill 3am so I ask my husband to ask if someone can helf me I expect a doctor to come since the front desk said there doctor will come to see me but instead one of the staff bring a tablet for me to take. what a dismay.

Prós: The view

Contras: The gecko sound

Prós: Fantastic setting and facilities. Staff was courteous and attentive.

Contras: Suboptimal WiFi in some of the public areas such as the pool and restaurant. Occasional lapses where the operator number wasn’t answered promptly or at all such as when trying to get bags to check out. I think your tour descriptions and help should be more specific in letting guests know how to dress and what specific activities are involved. Will I be wading in the water to disembark from the boat? I would have wanted to know what sites I can visit — caves, lagoons, snorkeling experiences, sister resorts. Can I tailor a tour/rent a boat for a specified amount of time? It wasn’t clear.

Prós: Great location, facilities were absolutely awsome & the staff were very friendly. If your looking for a place for a proposal wedding anniversary then the Vellago puts on a special occasion based on your requirements which is second to none, can't rate this high enough.

Contras: All good

Prós: Location, staff, food, rooms, privacy, amenities,

Contras: Specifically that week they had issues with Generator so no electricity all day which meant no wifi. But we acknowledge it was due to that incident otherwise surely would had been perfect. Mosquitos!!!

Prós: Amazing setting, amazing staff especially Herwin, never stayed someone and be made so welcome. Would recommend this place to anyone.

Prós: Nice staff beautiful restaurant incredible service

Contras: There need to be much more vegetarian and vegan options if they are adopting sustainability standards and catering to an eco-conscious and international crowd. Otherwise very nice staff.

Prós: Location was incredible, the staff were great and very helpful and the views from the room including breakfast served on the balcony was amazing.

Contras: There is one restaurant at vellago and a lot of the items on the menu were not available consistently while we were there. The menu was also over priced - was cheaper to take a boat to a restaurant 5 mins away with more choice and better quality of food.

Prós: Outstanding owners, hospitality, setting, amenities, housing. Truly the top echelon of boutique resorts.

Prós: Bom pequeno almoço, adaptável ao gosto do cliente com base na oferta disponível. Calma localização fora das horas de visitas turísticas à praia. Grande cenário para jantar na praia.

Contras: A rede Wifi não estava disponivel nos quartos. Precisa de melhor isolamento da ventilação para impedir a entrada de mosquitos nos quartos.

Prós: The staff were so friendly and accommodating to all of your needs. It was very clean and comfortable and a very romantic secluded getaway. It was absolutely gorgeous.

Contras: The tours were very expensive with little to do around the area. The food and drinks were also expensive but understandable being on a private island

Prós: We loved the location, the food and the staff was so friendly. We really hope to come back here one day!

Prós: Incredible facilities. So beautiful and comfortable. I loved being secluded on an Island. It was very relaxing. We stayed for 3 nights and if we had the time we would have comfortably stayed 5 nights instead to enjoy the beautiful surroundings. Great snorkelling at your door step. And the food was so good: from breakfast on your balcony to dinners on the beach. The whole experience is really special and luxurious. Great WiFi.

Contras: Just got a little expensive after indulging in all the beautiful dinners. Boats aren’t suppose to be on the water after dark so your options are limited in the evenings. I enjoyed this aspect of our stay but it’s something to be mindful of when booking.

Prós: All the food was very pure. It is impossible to swim from the hotel - you need to go to another place. The rooms are simple. No place to sit and relax except for a pool. But stuff is very helpful and nice.

Prós: Staff was really awesome. They all made us feel welcome and very special.

Prós: A cordialidade e simpatia dos atendentes é impressionante. Todos são extremamente educados com você e fazem realmente de tudo para que você tenha uma estadia maravilhosa. Como não são muitos quartos, você acaba cruzando sempre com alguns funcionários, que lhe chamam pelo nome, puxam conversa para saber como está se sentindo e como podem fazê-lo se sentir ainda melhor.

Contras: A alimentação é boa, mas acredito que pelo preço, poderia ser melhor. Entendo que a ilha é isolada e que provavelmente a dificuldade logística faz com que seja difícil trazer mantimentos. Entretanto, os mesmos pratos (principalmente para quem opta pelo pacote completo com alimentação) acabam ficando enjoativos se você fica mais de 2 dias.

Prós: Great Location Staff takes care of you in any way possible (solve every problem, activity manager to plan your stay, they even bring you bedtime stories) Cleanliness Environmental friendly

Contras: Food can be improved

Prós: Beautiful Island, eco and relaxing. Private boat trips very good

Contras: The island was too small for the amount of rooms 51 rooms and only 18-20 sun beds around the pool area which was mostly full by 10.30pm. This is pretty much the only place you can go apart from the beach which is lovely but it is 45minute trek through the jungle or a kayak around the island. We would have loved to have gone to the beach everyday but there was nothing there no umbrellas or drinks/snacks etc so you had to sunbath on a hard wooden lounger

Prós: Estrutura do hotel, paisagem e funcionários

Contras: Buffet do café da manhã com poucas opções, não tinha reposição de comida uma hora antes de acabar o horário, wifi muito ruim, muita mosca nas comidas expostas, muita formiga na varanda do quarto e por dois dias faltou lula para o aperitivo que queriamos.

Prós: I love everything in this resort. the staff are all lovely and attentive with all your needs. the boat tour guides are exellent. The food are all tasty and fresh everyday. I want to thank to John Sanders and to the chef Carlos they make our short stay amazingly beautiful and Ron who look after me when I'm not feeling well he make sure I have my lugaw and also to the lady doctor thank you for making me feel safe.

Prós: All islands tours were nice with very good prices and the snorkeling at miniloc island that they get us with a tour was incredible!!!also we saw monkeys around the resort and it was amazing. I really enjoyed the massage with a girl named Jane my husband also enjoyed the foot massage with another girl. Jane was really professional!!

Contras: The only thing was that you can’t swim just in front of the hotel however you can go cayak (free from the hotel )for not more than 15 minutes to the nearest small but really nice beach

Prós: The staff was so friendly , whatever you ask for they always say yes , the staff prepare breakfast for me at 5 am because im leaving even if they start at 6 am , thank you

Contras: Expansive hostel

Prós: Breakfast included. Private room. Location ok.

Contras: DIRTY & DEPRESSING Dust and dirt everywhere: floor, windows, door, shower, wc... Even bedsheets with stains ! (I think blood) Light from the corridor gets in the room, no curtains, no way to turn it off ! Not good maintenance at all, it's a shame.

Prós: Overall, the hostel had a really hip vibe. Breakfast was really good with a daily changing Filipino option and omelette and pancake station. The bar was really cool and they often had events and performances there. AC worked well, and while there were a few power outages, it always quickly came back. Location was close enough walking distance to town, though it is on the edge, not in the heart. Staff was always very nice and helpful.

Contras: This review is for the private room (I had also stayed in the shared room, which I wrote a separate review for). The room is very small, barely enough space for two people and two suitcases. The shower was always cold, no matter how long I waited, which is odd because the showers in the shared bathrooms always had hot water. The bathroom door is a bit weird since it acts as both the shower door and the bathroom door. WiFi was often very slow or spotty in the room and in the lobby (which was also the case in the shared room), but there is cell reception.

Prós: We stayed in a 4 bed female dorm with double bed bunk beds. Room was very spacious with large lockers. Bathrooms were very clean and nice hot showers. Great location for the town - less than a 5 min walk. Lovely breakfast selection! Nice bar with live music.

Prós: - The service was great - The staff Always smiling and ready to help - The accomodation itself - The party area at restaurant - The location is amazing closed to the bars, restaurants and beach

Contras: - Same breakfast everyday. No other options - Room service at beginning was not that good and improved when we complained - We found the door of our room opened twice

Prós: Everything. Perfect for solo travellers. Great to meet people. Also great to chill alone if you want. There's a more lively area and an area to relax. It's a little away from the business of the town so overall surroundings are a little more peaceful which was nice. Staff were so good. Breakfast was lovely. There were hooks to hang things!

Contras: Only issue was that my towel was a little dirty. I'd like to think/hope that it was a one off!

Prós: The hostel has a very cool vibe. The staff is kind and try you get involved with social activities. The locations is great. Other people staying there were very friendly. WiFi working perfect.

Contras: I had mosquitoes and ants in the room. Also the room was not clean. The hostel does not provide bed cover sheets, just a blanket which I don’t think it’s hygienic. The room was smelling. Once I raised my concerns they clean it.

Prós: Very social, regular events at the bar, good breakfast included, and really cool building design!

Contras: Showers were always covered in girls hair and had mucky footprints all over, laundry was difficult to do due to poor communication with staff

Prós: Amazing stay & lovely breakfast.

Contras: Everything was perfect.

Prós: Café da manhã similar hotel, localização ótima (perto de todos restaurantes e companhias de passeio) de El Nido, e funcionários atenciosos. Tem uma lavanderia muito boa. A Rose é maravilhosa. Não tem muita integração, caso a pessoa esteja viajando sozinha e queria fazer amigos nos espaços compartilhados. Um hostel estilo hotel mesmo. A decoração é linda!

Prós: It was an amazing stay ! Dan and Kat are really very friendly and willing to help in all cases ! Dan allowed me to sleep on a comfortable couch because i came late and i didn’t manage to book the night. Dan offered me a great breakfast just because i woke up late and i missed my breakfast! I highly recommend this hostel !

Contras: Nothing !

Prós: O quarto individual é bom, banheiro bom, café da manhã razoável

Contras: Se você quer se hospedar em um lugar para descansar depois de um dia inteiro de tour, esqueça fica nesse hotel! Tem festa todos os dias com som altíssimo até a meia noite! Eu não recomendo

Prós: It was beautiful and the pool was very nice.

Contras: You couldn’t access the beach, the breakfast was not good, not great options didn’t even have toast for the eggs.

Prós: The property is great, currently under construction/refurbishment so there is a little building mess around the grounds. But otherwise the rooms are good the view is the best possibly in El nido!

Contras: The only fault is the pool was quite “dirty” with many many dead bugs and the washing service was exorbitant at $56 Aud for 25 items! But very superficial.

Prós: Room and staff

Contras: No beach for swimming

Prós: Staff is very attentive and can always be seen around cleaning and organizing things.

Contras: Breakfast wasn't that great. should probably let people know power will be off during certain hours. Just so it's not a surprise

Prós: Good location. Clean and comfortable rooms.

Contras: The breakfast so poor

Prós: Beds were very comfortable

Contras: The floor planks need to be fixed. It was noisy and feels loose.

Contras: My friends were charged for using the swimming pool.

Prós: The view from the pool

Contras: Breakfast (but this is me)

Prós: It was peaceful and quiet. Breakfast was good (not many options but you can still have a cup of coffee and 2-3 kinds of fruits with nice view). Especially, we liked a bar. Good music, happy hour:)) We enjoyed our stay. Thanks

Contras: Birds were very loud in the early morning.

Prós: Localização

Contras: Limpeza

Prós: A equipe é sensacional, hotel perfeito! Ótima estrutura e lugar paradisíaco para esquecer da vida, vale a pena conhecer, praias muito lindas, com certeza é um dos melhores hotéis na região, só comprem álcool se quiserem beber, o hotel não vende, mas deixa trazer o seu.

Contras: Acredito que o café poderia ser mais completo, senti falta de algumas coisas, almoço e janta também, sou vegetariano e faltaram mais opções, o restante não tem o que dizer, a equipe é sensacional, hotel perfeito!

Prós: Funcionários perfeitos, muito amigáveis e atenciosos, estrutura difícil de se encontrar na região.

Contras: Acomodação não vende bebidas alcoólicas, cardápio do restaurante poderia ser melhor, café também poderiam aumentar a variedade.

Prós: A localização é magnífica. Combinação entre praia e natureza

Contras: A comida em geral o facto de não venderem bebidas alcoólicas no resort

Prós: Poor

Contras: Refrigatator adjusted Room Temperature 28 degrees

Prós: Cleanliness of the resort

Contras: Breakfast was very sparse. Only a few of each item were put out at a time so within an hour most of the dishes were empty. The staff were very happy to bring more food out but would only bring a few extra pieces at a time which meant if someone else also wanted some you had to ask again. There were not enough staff at breakfast so this was a very prolonged process. Poached eggs took an average of 20 mins to arrive.

Prós: A comida, as instalações, comodidade e isolamento eram ótimos. Ofereciam cayaques para deslocar-se a praias próximas e a ilha era um sonho! O chef do hotel era espetacular, comemos bem todos os dias!

Contras: Excesso de atenção por parte dos funcionários prejudicavam o espírito zen implementado. As refeições foram pagas à parte, ao contrário do esperado.

Prós: Amazing hotel and general experience, I wouldn’t stay longer than a few of days though. Staff are amazing

Prós: The Staff: Harry, the handsome guy helped a lot during our stay and especially when my son have some problem with his stomach and intestines. He helped for the medicine and let the nurse to have a check. thank you, Harry!!! The nice view of the island hotel; The snorkling and the Hayaka are also free of use!

Contras: NONE

Prós: Funcionários maravilhosos, tour muito bom e limpeza perfeita! Praia linda!

Contras: Um pouco caro o tour Café da manhã poderia ser melhor

Prós: A praia é linda, os funcionários são muito queridos e tentam ser prestáveis.

Contras: A comida está completamente fora do nível deste lugar. O pequeno almoço não tinha sumos naturais, apenas de pacote, a fruta quando chegámos estava reduzida a melancia, perguntei se iriam repor as bandejas que estavam vazias e um rapaz amavelmente perguntou se queríamos alguma fruta em especial e lá nos trouxe uma manga. tudo o resto, além das omeletes parecia já ter sido cozinhado há vários dias, pouco fresco mesmo. O hotel estava em obras o que também não é agradável num lugar onde o preço por um quarto familiar foram 570 euros. O duche corria com pouca pressão. As excursões têm preços exorbitantes e pagámos 100 euros por um transfer de barco de 15 minutos do hotel onde nos encontrávamos.

Prós: The location is exclusive which makes it less crowded...And the staffs are very hospitable especially Kuya Mark our tour guide

Contras: Nothing!!!!

Prós: A vista do hotel e o café da manhã são incríveis. Ótimo atendimento tbm.

Contras: A localização nos deixa literalmente “ilhados”, dependendo totalmente dos passeios e alimentação do hotel.

Prós: Friendly staff and very good location, nice and quiet after staying in el nido

Prós: Pure bliss.. just relax and do nothing. Its really just for people who seek nature and Tranquility

Contras: no hot water

Prós: Leia and the rest of the staff were really helpful and friendly at all times, they helped us with everything we needed (water-damaged phone, broken tent and even change for us to buy some gas nearby). The place is amazing for relaxing, very secluded and surrounded by beautiful nature, much better than the craziness of El Nido town (also much cheaper).

Contras: Water ran out quite often in the bathrooms and the beach wasn't always clean. WiFi didn't work a single day we were there, and if you have Smart you won't have signal here! Food was quite expensive for very small portions, the chicken adobo had literally 4 pieces of meat and 2 bones. Zamira cafe is quite near, you can get better options there.

Prós: Calm and peace and love

Prós: Zach is the best receptionist ever!! We stayed in the tent and it was very comfortable. Easy to go to El Nido by van or motorbike, and a few restaurants along the Beach and in the Village. We loved it, thank you for everything from Saga and Lukas

Prós: Its a very quiet place away form Al Nido town, but we love it very much, it's a great place to spend time enjoy the beach and local village, and the Hotel also provide the tour services and motorbike renting, we even extend one more day stay there, definitely will recommend to everyone

Contras: nope

Prós: Nice water view, ok beach

Contras: When we arrived after a gruelling 9 hour shared van ride from Puerto Princesa, arranged by the hotel, we found the room without water and electricity, no toilet paper in the bathroom, ants crawling everywhere and mould on the doors and windows. There was no wifi in the public area even though it was advertised as available on the website. The only reason I am giving them 3 out of 10 instead of 1 out of 10 is that the staff was friendly and they refunded the remaining 2 nights after I explained the reasons we were leaving.

Prós: Real backpacking place, very few people, situated on the beach, you sleep in a huts and bungalows, there is a small bar. Nice place to stay if you want to escape from crowded el nido. Mind that its an hour ride from el nido info the jungle. Tapik is old but simple and thats the magic. If u usually sleep in 4-5 Star hotels you want be satisfied but if u have ever tried backpacking, you will feel the vibe:) Great and very beatiful Island Hopping, we were just 4 people on boat and secret island

Contras: Poor wifi, but that is a plus Huts and bungulows need to be refurbished Breakfast and dinners, its better to eat at the nearby restaurant hotel - Urszula

Prós: O atendimento é impecável ,hotel muito aconchegante

Contras: Internet péssima , menu do restaurante restrito

Prós: Localização perfeita em frente ao mar

Contras: Pequeno almoço limitado , pouca escolha e cobram um simples pão extra a parte

Prós: The positives - it is a fairly good hotel, the staff was friendly and helpful. The included breakfast was very good and having it on the terrace in front of the sea is amazing. But...

Contras: The hotel is way way over-priced. It was the most expensive hotel we ever booked and for this price we expected much much more from our bungalow. The hotel is quite basic and doesn’t provide a good value for the paid money!

Prós: It’s a wonderful place with an incredibile staff.

Contras: Everything ok

Prós: Location was great. The concept was good.

Contras: Not a great stay in a perfect location!!!! Inflexible management, non courteous reception (unlike any other philippine friedly experience). Highly expensive for (room phone not working always, lizard welcoming on the bed, hot water not available in evening, only cash, no card accepted). Only advantage of great location, good huts and nice ambience. Memories are made by experience rather than location!!!!

Prós: Staff we lovely and helpful

Contras: Bed was uncomfortable

Prós: - the location and the Bungalows itself were beautiful - El Nido itself is beautiful and the surrounding islands are amazing - corong corong has the most beautiful sunsets - good breakfast - friendly staff

Contras: - the shower was rusty. When you open the water for taking a shower the smell was very bad and you had rusty particles on your body. So you feel even more dirty after taking the shower. - the dinner at the restaurant is too expensive and tasteless - the hotel is in total nice but for what you get it is way too expensive, you get in Switzerland the best hospitality for this price - the Organisation is a real problem, on our first day we waited 1 hour for our breakfast although we had to book it the day before, for having dinner you also wait for 30 min to get only drinks - we had a bungalow with a small jacuzzi, but it was never cleaned, there were leaves and dirt so we never used it

Prós: Bom pequeno almoço, localização, limpeza, simpatia dos funcionários!

Contras: Preço excessivo face à qualidade,piscina em obras, fraca insonorização em especial dos quartos perto da recepção, proprietários indiferentes ao conforto dos clientes. Não recomendo.

Prós: Very friendly and helpful staff.

Prós: Serviço de transfers. O hotel fica numa zona inacessível ao trânsito e difícil de lá chegar. Então com a bagagem pode ser uma grande dor de cabeça. Mas o hotel disponibiliza um serviço de transfers de/para o aeroporto nuns triciclos típicos q se torna numa experiência fantástica.

Contras: Infelizmente o hotel encontrava-se em obras. Barulho e pó com fartura. Foi bastante desagradável. Apesar de estar em frente ao mar, a praia é muito má.

Prós: Setting, ambience, kitchen/restaurant staff was accommodating, food was pricier than town (to be expected in a hotel restaurant) but good flavor

Contras: No WiFi for 4 days...they kept saying something was wrong with the connection, but someone in our party who speaks the language overheard the staff talking on the phone to the network provider complaining that their WiFi was cut just because they hadn’t paid their bill. Felt that they tried to take advantage of us every time they could. For the “free” shuttle to and from the airport, they tried to charge an extra 100 pesos each (1000 pesos total) for a tuk tuk ride to the van...a two min ride..because their hotel is only accessible by tuk tuk. They claimed it was because we were “leaving so early”, despite the fact that they already knew our departure time and never mentioned an extra cost during earlier communications. Finally, someone in our party gave $ to the restaurant staff asking for pandan to be picked up in town (a Filipino bread served at all the other hotels we stayed). The restaurant said it was “complimentary” the next day when it was served at breakfast, even though we had paid for it, but then at check out, an extra charge for it appeared on the room bill. They did not remove the charge until we protested and said that we had already paid for it. Upon settling the final payment, they charged using a much Lower exchange rate at 47.3, rather than the current rate at 50.8 a $225 difference, which showed as USD on the receipt. It wasn’t until I protested and talked to the manager over the phone, that they voided the transaction, and rung it up in pesos, telling me that my bank would then use the current exchange rate when the charge came thru. Had I signed the slip showing the USD charge, it would’ve stayed that amount. I told the manager that when a facility tries to get more money (not once, but three times) from you, it leaves a bad taste in your mouth even if the setting and ambience is beautiful. I told him that just because we had been tipping well, it was no reason for them to try to get more money from us.

Prós: Excellent breakfast and restaurant. The view from our room was excellent. The bed was clean and comfortable. Probably the best option in El Nido but not for the price.

Contras: We chose the nicest room in the hotel. It was beach front with a private lounge and 'hot tub'. The lounge and bathroom were unclean, with ants everywhere that crawled up your legs. The hot tub was cold and could not be heated despite the front desk saying they could turn on the heater. It took 4 calls to turn on the jets - only to learn the jets did not work. There were drunken guests that shouted and swore from 2 to 4:45 am and the hotel management did not seem to care they were keeping everyone else awake. The price was exorbitant for the Philippines and we really expected more. It could have been great with better management.

Prós: Right in front of beautiful beach with stunning view while it is a walking distance to the downtown. Excellent location to relax for a few days.

Contras: No pick-up at the port despite reminders (even one day before our arrival), and there was no apology by staff at the reception. Also, we are still settling an issue of double-charging in payment by the hotel, awaiting clarification by the hotel - no response for the past three days after our check-out.

Prós: The view

Contras: Paid extra for a jacuzzi in my room that was not Working TV was not working Poor WiFi that kept disconnecting and asked to relog Only one device allowed for WiFi

Prós: Localização é boa, mas preferia sê bem tratado numa péssima localização do que a experiência que tive la. As moças que ficam na recepção são simpáticas, os demais funcionários não.

Contras: Cama barulhenta, acordei em cada movimento que fiz durante a noite. Ar condicionado não funcionava da maneira que deveria. Tinha resto de comida na cama quando chegamos. Café da manhã PÉSSIMO, pedimos uma panqueca em um dos dias, trouxeram pão com ovo e bacon, e mesmo estando com o papel em mãos do pedido feito na noite anterior, o funcionário nos acusou de agir de má fé ao invés de solucionar o problema. Os quartos não tem geladeira, parece ser algo comum nas Filipinas mas que me causou estranheza. Fizemos uma reserva de 4 diárias mas ficamos somente 3 diárias, o máximo da vontade de ir embora de lá foi o tratamento do funcionário no café da manhã, junto com tudo de PÉSSIMO que o hotel havia nos proporcionado

Prós: O lugar onde toma café da manhã. Vista muito bonita. A localização é muito boa, bem perto dos barcos que fazem os passeios.

Prós: We had a room with view to El Nido Beach. The room had been a good size and airy. Breakfast had been nice and with good view to the every morning rush to the tours. Many restaurants and bars had been close! The personal had been helpful.

Contras: There had been a few flaws like no lights to the bed and lack of a ventilator. But the personal helped out quickly!

Contras: Next to the hotel there is a five center and their compressor to refil the rank is on h24 and ya extremely noisy. This is the reason why I left the hotel even if for the rest it wasn’t bed

Prós: Great WiFi Bed was comfy (maybe an extra pillow would be nice) Bathroom was adequate Loved the view from the breakfast balcony Perfect location for island hopping and in the hub of El Nido town action

Contras: The shower drain was semi-blocked (room 302) meaning the entire bathroom would flood while having a shower

Prós: -location on the beach -breakfast -clean

Prós: Net excelente, o que é raro acontecer num hotel nas Filipinas. Funcionários formidáveis. Aquisição de tours apenas no hotel e as funcionárias foram sempre muito prestáveis na informação. Localização excelente, próximo do início das tours de barco e muita variedade de restaurantes, bares e comércio.

Contras: Mais uma sugestão do que crítica: pequeno almoço poderia incluir mais quantidade (por exemplo, junção de algumas das opções disponíveis para consumo).

Prós: Very strong Wi-Fi, great location, nice staff, good beds, quiet airco, hot shower.

Contras: The room did not have l a nice view but the place where the breakfast was served was great.

Prós: Lovely hotel, excellent location, sea view, good breakfast and able to book tours. Great communication, clean room. No problems with the room at all.

Contras: Tips: Ask questions directly: What time does the bus leave? Is this the boar for ....? Always inquire with open questions. Tips for transfer: We arranged a transfer with the hotel for 500 ps each from Puerto Princesa. We were met by an external agency departing 20 minutes after our flight landed. We assumed we were going straight to El Nido, however we were driven 5 minutes down the road to the Office Depot, the driver left the engine running and the wandered off. 5 minutes later we asked what was going on and were told we would stay there for another hour! They had just planned to leave us in the car with no explanation which was rude. Tip : be aware that companies have set times to leave. We arrived at 7.40am, one bus left at 7am and another at 9am so we had to wait for that one to pick more people up. It would help if the hotel notified us of the departure times in the welcome email to avoid confusion. Tip for tour: We did tour a and were asked to select the big lagoon or small lagoon. We chose the big one and made sure to check several times at the tour check in point that we were on the right boat. We spoke to 2 different people and they said it was ok. However upon departing we were told by they main guide it was the small lagoon boat! It didn’t matter in the end but I don’t think there was any intention to put us on the big lagoon boat as at the next stop it pulled up next to us and was full. Again, simple communication would have helped.

Prós: Ótima localização, de frente pro porto de onde partem os passeios, café da manhã com vista incrível, na rua com os principais restaurantes todos acessíveis andando. Staf atencioso e além de tirar dúvidas facilitou muito nossa estadia. Sempre solicitos.

Contras: As toalhas estavam cheirando. Como se estivessem sujas ou secadas à sombra. Pedimos a troca e vimos que as novas possuíam o mesmo cheiro. Café da manhã algumas opções esgotavam rápido demais.

Prós: I like the staff and also the food..
