Nice island resort stay in El Nido

Great views and very attentive staff. We had a Swedish massage and it was amazing. Maybe the food options can be improved. We did kayak tour to the a deserted beach and it was beautiful.
2-night trip

8/10 Very good

The property is "ok." Rooms were decent and bed was comfy. A/C worked well but the temperature in February was very nice that you really didn't need it. Food was pretty decent but you do have to pay for it (except for breakfast). Overall, I had a relaxing time but I think I will try another island resort property.

Perfect dreamy stay on a semi private resort to have a couple of days in addition to a longer stay in El Nido (in the mai island). Wouldn't suggest to spend your whole holiday there
Andrea, 2-night trip

Perfection

Fantastic stay. Everything was amazing and the staff were so helpful and attentive. The views are incredible. Couldn't fault it.
Ashley, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I like a lot the beach and the position, the care and attention by the working team and the excursions to the nearby islands that I believe it is a must should you are getting there from far away. The restaurant is a bit expensive compare to shore ones (but it is also an island and logistic cost) and the excursions are a bit expensive but they were private ones and we really had a good time and enjoyed them all.
roberto, 8-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

It was relaxing and peaceful. I loved being able to walk out of the villa and beach a few feet away or listen ti the waves from the fromt room.
Reynae, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

disappointed that we were not able to meet the minimums for an outing. I strongly suggest adding beer and wine to the restaurant menu.
