Everything was great

Excellent place to stay close to El Nido town but still located as secluded jungle oasis. Love the small cozy layout of the resort and proactive support and friendliness of the staff. The stay exceeded our expectations and we will come back for sure.

It‘s a little bit far from El Nido, so you need a scooter.

Really lovely hotel with beautiful rooms, a nice pool area and a good breakfast. Very friendly, helpful staff.

The water pressure was bad, they tried to fix it and it helped but still weak. The location is not that convenient. It cost 250 pesos to go to the town one way.

The staff was amazing always willing to help !

Bit of a mosquito problem in the room.

Staff were really nice. Good food. Nice room and pool. Did a day tour with the hotels driver which was really good. I got a bit unwell when staying at this hotel and they were really helpful.

Very calm and boutique resort, only one step to perfection! Place superb calm, everything done around with love and big passion. Room was clean and had everything what we need. Reserve some time for chill around pool zone, it’s worth any minutes. Staff were very friendly and helpful, only the best memories. Few kilometres away from El Nido town, so if you don’t wont to stay in same place, scooter strongly recommended. Definitely one of my best stay’s!

Fantastic and magical place. Once you get to El Nido and look around, you will quickly realise that this is by far one of the best options for accommodation. Very clean, staff is super helpful and friendly, the food is good and the whole experience is great. In the middle of the jungle, far away from crowds and hectic of El Nido. Recommend it 100%

N/A

Resort is near to the main road to El Nido, but when you enter you feel like in jungle oasis. Interior very beautiful, staff super helpful, delicious breakfast, very calm and quiet, you can have water refill, which is very useful! Only couple of kilometres from Vanilla Beach, where sunsets are amazing!

Mattress was a little stiffer than my liking but not an issue at all.

Amazing and accommodating staff. They allowed us to hang by the pool while we waited for our late night flight. Awesome location, away from the noise but still easily accessible by scooter.

Great place accommodation restaurant and really good service. Nice pool to chill, good food and drinks, staff really friendly and helpful. The room itself very spacious and feels like home. The location is a bit out of the main noisy places to get privacy and quiet time. Easy to access to the town center and beach if you want. Get the steak and eggs for breakfast!

Shower pressure was on the lower side but perfectly fine. However they were making improvements to the water pump whilst we were there, to help this is in the future. This work was quite noisy at the time but we completely understand there is no perfect time for building work. Lots of mosquitoes due to being set within nature - so come prepared with spray!

We couldn’t fault the hospitality of the staff. We enjoyed getting to know them and they went out of their way to help us when we unfortunately got food poisoning whilst eating out. We enjoyed chilling at the pool and bar area. The staff helped us to organise a scooter which made it very easy.

Great staff, delicious breakfast, and really comfortable stay. The cherry on top was the hotel pets.

The water pressure in the shower was really the only downside but not something that is very major.

Nice and quiet spot close enough to town but far away enough to escape the crowds. The pets were very cute. We will miss them. The staff were fantastic and went above and beyond to enhance our experience. The pool area/bar and restaurant was well set up and had a great atmosphere. The food was absolutely delicious and affordable.

None!

We stayed here for 4 nights and every thing is perfect! The property is perfect for relaxing and meditation. Very Clean, comfortable, interior is on point, and the location to me is good, It’s so peaceful and quiet, far from the noises of the town proper. feels like we were the only guests staying here but 2-3 other rooms were also occupied! Lovely breakfast, and so many delicious and the best food to choose from the menu! We always have breakfast and dinner here! The staff were incredible especially Miss Nikka and Miss Maica, who assisted us with superb hospitality and great service! they arranged everything for us neatly from the underground river tour to El Nido inland tour, island hopping and our transfer from puerto princess to El Nido and vise-versa. Sunday and Royal (pets) made our stay worthwhile! The whole experience was just great! I would definitely recommend this to everyone!!

Great food and atmosphere. Super friendly staff. Large swimming pool. Everything you need! It is a bit further from El Nido, which makes it more relaxing.

There seems to be an issue of a smell coming from the shower drain which was unpleasant.

Lovely quiet boutique resort. Only a few rooms so you feel like you have the place to yourselves. Staff are super friendly.
