no cold water > fixed next day no phone > fixed next day no refrigerator, instead they provide ice but kitchen closed 10pm. no any place to buy cold water. I don't know why my friend decided to stay here. anyway, it is clean, staff helped us kindly, just 3mins from airport. 2mins from beach and restaurants.

The property is quite a distance from the city however, it is manageable since there was an available trike to the city, there was a restaurant around the property for your cravings. The staff are kind and accommodating. special mention to Ms. Rose and Ms. Kim.

An sich ist es ein schönes Hotel, allerdings stimmt das Preis/Leistungsverhältnis nicht. Der Service funktioniert nicht wie er in der Preisklasse sollte. Da waren Missverständnisse über den Pool im Schwesternhotel (angeblich benutzbar aber vor Ort wusste niemand etwas) der Wäscheservice war teuer, hat nur auf Drängen, da Abreise, nach zwei Tagen geklappt und alle Klamotten sind komplett eingelaufen und somit ein Fall für die Tonne😠 die Bitte nach Öffnen des Safes, reparieren der Balkontür und einer dünneren Decke haben trotz mehrmaliger Aufforderung nicht geklappt. Alles in allem eigentlich kein Hexenwerk in der Preisklasse...daher sind wir etwas enttäuscht. Als Wehrmutstropfen war die unmittelbare Umgebung wirklich schön und entspannend.

An OK hotel relying on location.
This is a hotel on Lio Beach (100m away) in El Nido. I got the impression that because it there it is assumed that this is enough and attention to details are not necessary. First off, 40 minutes late getting picked up at the airport (having used their 'private' airline Air-Swift). Secondly, shower overflowed into the bathroom due to a blocked drain which was easily fixed by removing the accumulated hair, not a pleasant thing to have to do. The staff, as always, were eager to help and we were offered a late check out due to our 17:20 flight which was appreciated (although the receptionist at checkout had not been informed and we were temporarily locked out of the room that had all of our possessions inside). I have travelled extensively in the Philippines and stayed at some much nicer places for the same price or less. If this hotel wants to continue to attract future clients then it needs to up the game a bit and not rely on its location. The room was comfortable enough and nearby facilities offer some good food and drink options.

The hotel has access on the beach and restaurants. Room is fine, I hope they put small desk with paper and pen. No hand soap and bath soap in the room, the staff did not refill the bottle, good thing we brought our own. Breakfast is excellent for Filipino guests because there’s variety but if your a foreigner they should add other choices like pastries, yogurt, ham. But overall I like the place and hotel

All of the staff were very friendly and professional. The only problem I encountered was that several of the local restaurants did not have a number of items available that were listed on the menu.

This hotel is part of a group of hotels in an area called Lio beach and this particular hotel is literally a 2 minute walk to the beach. This property is 5 minutes from the airport and 20 minutes away from El Nido town proper. There are multiple dining and shopping options here but I have to agree on some of the reviews here that it typically cost 50% more than in town. There’s an ATM and a drugstore in the vicinity as well. The hotel offers shuttle service to town every hour starting at 8:30 AM till midnight. Or if you can’t wait, you can take the tricycle for 150 pesos or about $3.00/person. This property does not have a pool or a gym. There’s a gym next door that charges 250 pesos or about $5.00/day to use it - which one reviewer here said was a shame and I agree with him because hardly anyone uses it and why do you need to charge to use it? Offers breakfast in the morning which was simple and good. The room itself was small and basic. It has a safe and a balcony where you can hang your wet clothes. The property is showing it’s age - our room has several cracks on the wall. Some of the lights in the bathroom are not working and this is even after we called at the front desk to get it fix and it was never done. Overall, it’s a decent property. You don’t really stay in your room when you’re in El Nido. If you want to go a little higher end, try Seda Lio next door. It’s about a 10-minute walk on the beach from this hotel and connected by lighted pathway at night.

Room had a modern yet traditional look and feel to it. Breakfast was amazing, served both western and traditional Filipino cuisine. Check-in was great, they pick you up straight from the airport as well as drop you off for your departures. Beach is just a 2 min walk away. A lot of restaurants nearby. Room was very clean. I would recommend it to family and friends. Probably one of the most upscale hotels around Lio. Hotel staff were nice and courteous. Lio itself was nice and peaceful. Make sure you check it out before they fully develop Lio to become the El Nido central.

お勧めは出来ませんが空港に近いため、最終日の移動は楽なエリアです。壁が薄いせいか、部屋の会話が聞こえてきます。カーテンを閉めないと部屋の中が丸見えになります。バスタオルしか常備されてなくフェイスタオルは追加料金が必要です。 フロントは24時間体制ではなく、夜間帯は隣のホテルのフロントに行くことになってますが、 ヘアドライヤーがなく隣のホテルに行きましたが翌朝まで待つように言われました。

立地心配なしでした。
このホテルのあるリオビーチはエルニド市街から離れてはいますが、無料シャトルもあり、また市街に出なくてもレストランやドラッグストア、ATMもあり不便は感じませんでした。 ホテルスタッフは皆さん親切でお願いしていたトライシクルの予約や空港送迎もきちんと時間通り手配していただけました。 バスマットとバスタオルは毎回リクエストをしないと部屋に用意されてなかった点が少し残念でしたが、フロントに連絡するとすぐに持ってきてくれました。 また夕日がとても綺麗で、夜の海辺は灯りが少ないので星も良く見える素晴らしい立地だと思いました。

Nice hotel, nice beach, somewhat secluded; however the free shuttle in to town was quite useful. Be certain that your in-room safe is functioning properly, and USE it: sticky fingers.

酒店本身沒問題的,熱水洗澡足夠的,睡眠環境清靜,床非常舒服,距離機場只是兩分鐘車程。缺點是酒店是被泥沙圍著,所以返回洒店時,雙腳會沾到泥土入房,而房內沒有拖鞋,所以感覺地上經常有沙子,沒有擦牙的杯子。酒店雖然有免費接駁車去市中心,但是每次只有12個位,到晚餐時間就會沒有位的,而洒店坐車去市中心要300peso,酒店附近有餐廳,但是貴,選擇少。

Great depending on what type of traveller you are
This was not my favorite hotel, but I'm not going to deduct from the score as it will be 5 stars to other guests. The staff were friendly and mostly helpful. The rooms are clean and the breakfast is delicious. I went here with my wife. We like exploring, so something near El Nido proper will be better for those type of guests. We would definitely recommend this hotel who wants a relaxing quiet time. The beach is very nice and sandy. Most other beaches in El Nido are shelly/rocky. There are other amenities to rent out such as surfboards. However I would not recommend renting a surfboard as the water was low and one of the fins broke on the sand bar and it is expensive to replace. There are numerous restaurants to choose from. We ate at one and it was delicious. The other restaurants in the area looked great too. The room was a little small but cozy. Also the resort is only a 5 minute drive from El Nido airport.
