El Nido Lomakeskukset

Plussat: If you are looking for a perfect resort.. this is it... we love everything in this hotel..

Miinukset: The food must be upgraded

Plussat: Breakfast was great and location is superb. The dishes are very carefully planned for all meals.

Miinukset: Airport transfers.

Plussat: The amazing stuff and incredible place

Plussat: Very private perfect for couples get away..

Miinukset: gym and kids playroom aircon are off, it was hot, and i saw a lot of ants running around

Plussat: The people by far! From Event Manager Sanders to Head Chef Carlos, the hospitality was second to none. Sanders was incredibly accommodating and went out of his way to ensure that we were more than happy. Chef Carlos prepared an absolutely delectable meal for a private dinner. All of the staff helped to make our stay most pleasant. Lagen Island knows how to treat its’ guest!

Plussat: Clean and friendly staff

Miinukset: The lagon isnt really full of fish and coral, and there is no beach

Plussat: Efficiency of staff,cleanliness, reliability of staff

Miinukset: Wish all meals were included Connection with airswift was disappointing. Somehow becomes a let down for the end of the trip with crazy mixup airport changes. You easily forget how wonderful thenusland is

Plussat: Paradise!

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: We enjoyed the privacy as well as the bungalows and pool area

Miinukset: Selection of food, as well as lack of activities

Plussat: Beautiful Scenery, good facilities, clean environment, honest attendants/crew/. Very good activities/island hopping, and everything..

Miinukset: Small boutique but it is good in a way

Plussat: This is a beautiful place to stay with the most welcoming & accommodating staff possible. They all go above & beyond to provide the perfect holiday. Rooms have everything you need, even a yoga mat. Breakfast is lovely served each morning on your balcony. They set up an unbelievably romantic dinner on the beach for our anniversary & special breakfast & were accommodating to our vegetarian diet. Thank you all so much, best holiday.

Miinukset: Bar closes at 10pm & last boat back to hotel is 9:30pm. Have to settle into earlier mornings & earlier nights routine but it’s worth it for the best beach in Palawan & such top notch accommodation & care.

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

Miinukset: 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!!!

Plussat: Staff, especially Jay, made us feel welcomed. They were also very friendly. The room was perfect and the view from the balcony so beautiful. We spent relaxing two days out of the hustle and noise.

Miinukset: The was fenced part of land next to Vellago and it was a bit messy, but that was not Vellagos fault,

Plussat: This was by far the best experience we have ever had at a hotel. The attention to detail was exceptional, everything from the room decor to the private beach area, the food, the amazing customer service. I cannot recommend this hotel enough.

Miinukset: You pay for what you get I guess

Plussat: I stayed for 3 nights in the honeymoon suite. There are only a small number of properties (though they're planning more) which are all so intricately and beautifully designed, built (from wood) and furnished. The rooms are spacious and the bed is large and comfortable. They also provide a helpful Handy phone to use during your stay. Vellago is situated on an island off the main coast (7 commando beach) giving a decent level of seclusion and a setting that is absolutely breathtaking. Particularly for breakfast (a delicious range of egg options served with a generous fruit platter and fresh juice.. on our room's balcony. We had Omelette and Eggs Florentine. It's one of the best hotel breakfast we've ever had)... and also for candlelit dinner on the beach. During our stay we also had a massage. This deserves special mention for being simply brilliant. The masseuse found our aches, tension and pain points as she scanned our bodies with her hands and combined a range of different techniques in tackling them. We both felt a million dollars after that! As for the staff; extremely friendly, fun and helpful - especially Irwin (who was fantastic) and Jay and the boat captain (who took us to and fro town every day, morning and night!).

Miinukset: You're on a beach which is part of Tour A (the most popular tour) so there is the daily stream of tourists that breaks the seclusion (unlike other Islands like Miniloc which restrict access). Being on an island also means that this is quite an expensive resort so expect to pay a premium for everything (food, massage, private tours etc.). Whilst the dinner was generally very good (especially the Lemon Tuna and seafood platter) the chicken dishes were a tad salty.

Plussat: We stayed at Vellago for three days and I can honestly say that I felt I had come to a different world altogether. The resort is situated on a different side of the island, and has a view to die for. It is a quaint little resort done very tastefully and ensures that you have the view of the sea almost all the time. While the resort is very beautiful it is their staff that makes them a perfect 10. Herwin and Louie and the rest of the staff go that extra mile to ensure that the stay is excellent.

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

Plussat: The breakfast and location absolutely awesome!!! Sipping the delicious coffee, watching the crystal clear water on the beach, enjoying the amazing mangoes and pineapples on the fruit plate was unforgettable.

Plussat: Beautiful location on seven commandos beach, great views from the balcony! The team looking after guests are also great and can’t do enough to make sure you have a fantastic experience. The food is also delicious and a nice touch having breakfast delivered each morning, overlooking the sea!

Miinukset: Being on one of the tour routes means there are boats arriving periodically throughout the day however this really isn’t too intrusive and security are on hand to make sure non guests are kept away from the villa’s themselves

Plussat: Wonderful location, relaxing atmosphere, well equipped room (top sound system, Handy local mobile) breathtaking view from your terrace, delicious food. Breakfast is served on your balconyand, you can have a lunch in a beach-cabana, dinner on the beach under the sky. All the staff is very lovely but Herwin was an extremly welcoming host. This place is the perfect place to lie down, relax and enjoy your private paradise. ‹3 Highly recommended!

Plussat: Hieno ranta ja erittäin hieno huone.

Miinukset: Ei ollut mitään kauppaa tai muuta ravintolaa, kun hotellin oma.

Plussat: The staff were very friendly and very helpful.

Plussat: Staff was extremely friendly and accommodating. Stayed in the Beach Villa and it was beautiful. Looking forward to my next visit to El Nido and will definitely be staying at Matinloc.

Plussat: The location is amazing !

Miinukset: It is very expensive and breakfast is very average.

Plussat: Our stay here was the highlight of our trip to Palawan. Booked t at the last minute and so glad we did! The staff is incredible and so accommodating. Our server most of the time was Deo, he was a very well spoken, kind and very friendly young man. He was so helpful and made sure our trip was over and above excellent. The boat tour we booked through The resort was much more expensive than the ones from El Nido, however, it was so worth it. Our guide, Elmer was so great and his support staff was so wonderful as well. The trip was personalized and catered to our group very well. We took kayaks out for fun and saw beautiful sights. The snorkeling in front of the resort was great if you swim out a bit. We were so impressed with our suite as well. Advertised as a "partial ocean view" but we weren't missing much!! We saw it all and witnessed some incredible sunrises from our balcony. Room was clean, cozy and so luxurious. Every need was met. I could go on for days...it is truly heaven on earth at Matinloc Resort.

Plussat: I loved the resort, the staff were amazing! We loved Allan, he took us to many different islands and he was so informative. He taught us lots about the locals & culture. In addition, he was very prepared & attentive! Excellent travel guide!

Miinukset: The only thing that could of been improved was the bugs in the room at night time.

Plussat: The food was outstanding. Our room was clean and comfortable. Staff was grand.

Miinukset: No complaints

Plussat: Amazing location and great beach front property Great morning and evening walks and breakfast with beach view Good and relaxing views of the beach and beyond from the rooms Very comfortable beds and clean bathrooms

Miinukset: Breakfast was good but certain requests like toasted bread etc was missed. Some mosquitos but this is expected in the rainforest/ tropical environment . WiFi was slow but who cares when you are in such a great environment and location

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

Miinukset: Everything ok

Plussat: I love how the personnels are very attentive and easy to talk to. location is amazing, beachfront is swimmable and the bed is soooo comfortable. get the villa if you are a group, u have two sofa bed/single bed that are very comfortable. also, they made us use the pool even after check out, until late afternoon. also their dog Leo. I miss Leo.

Miinukset: boats infront of the resort, makes the water not so clear for el Nido standard.

Plussat: The reception staff was polite and nice. General staff were also polite and courteous.

Miinukset: There were 9 issues that came up in my 4-day stay: 1) Electricity blackout with no back-up power generator working - this happened twice, the first lasted about 8 hours and second about 2 hours. 2) Wifi did not work 3 times throughout my stay. Wifi login and password had to be reset 3 times. Had to work with reception each time to resolve this. 3) Phone did not work 3 times in my stay. I couldn't contact reception and had to walk to reception to settle with the rest of the issues. 4) Hot water did not work for 1 night of my stay. I found out at 10pm and there was no maintenance available at that time so I had to use cold water for shower. 5) Water drainage was slow in the shower, which was fixed after the issue was brought up. I thought they should have fixed this before a guest checks in. Similarly, the floor felt slightly oily when I checked in. 6) Hand towels were not given when I checked into the room. It was given to me after I brought up the issue but for the remaining days, they removed the hand towels and did not replaced. I just lived without it since there were too many issues for me to handle for my holiday 7) Clothes hangers were insufficient. About 6 hangers were given at check in, which was insufficient for me. They gave me more after I asked for it. 8) Drinking water was not topped up daily though it was promised at check in. They topped up only after I asked for it. 9) Shaving kit was not provided. Other than the electricity blackout, the other issues on an individual basis were small. However, given the large number of recurrent issues, it distracted me from my holiday as I had to spend time over multiple instances resolving the issues.

Plussat: Very hospitable staff, beautiful and clean rooms. Amazing view and beachfront

Miinukset: Electricity was out for 5 hours, 10 mins tricycle into town. Food at the restaurant was not that good.

Plussat: I’m just glad that we only stayed one night.

Miinukset: The room was smelly and lots of ants. Air con not working well and I cleaned the filter myself as it was clogged with dust.

Plussat: The view from our room is very relaxing just what we needed and for sure most of the travelers would love to see that kind of view. I heard there will he some changes next year, we hope that the beach front view room w/ loft will not be change coz it’s very good and relaxing :) worth the pay

Miinukset: The dogs are everywhere, some of my companion has allergy to dogs.

Plussat: Location, private beach, atmosphere

Miinukset: Staff is not trained!!! Fish carpaccio is frozen! No hot water and wifi is so bad and slow!

Plussat: The staff are super friendly. The manager Kat is very nice, my husband celebrated his birthday there and they made extra effort to make it super especial day for him. We went island hopping on my husband birthday and they prepared a feast for our food and made happy birthday carving on the fruits and the boat crew sang my husband a happy birthday. When we got back at the resort and the end of the day, the dining staff came to our room and sang my husband happy birthday and bring us fruit flatter and cake with candle. Retchel she’s the assistant manager is very nice as well and John from the dining the house keeping is very accommodating as well, I forgot the name of the staff that takes care our room every day but he is nice and accommodating. The whole staff at El Nido cove is nice and friendly and very accommodating.

Miinukset: There is no extra amenities. No fridge no tissues, no bath towel,no wash cloths.

Plussat: Breakfast location with beach view and quiet.

Miinukset: Facility is old and has a musty smell in the room in was booked in

Plussat: Amazing and breathtaking views. The beach front loft was spacious and always clean. The staff on site were absolutely amazing and made the trip very memorable.

Miinukset: Bathrooms were a little outdated.

Plussat: There was a free shuttle to nearby Lio Beach. The hotel itself was quiet and peaceful.

Miinukset: This room was not a good value considering the price point and amenities provided. The rooms were much darker than what I expected from looking at the website. The hotel was quite far out from the city center. The internet was VERY slow and staff had a hard time helping us to secure a room for the following night. I would recommend staying instead at one of the hotels on Lio Beach (where we transferred to). The hotels there are nicer, cheaper and provide a free shuttle every hour into town.

Plussat: The view inside the location is amazing, food ok and the price very fair.

Miinukset: The beach is not the best ..

Plussat: The views from the property and the pool/beach are great. The staff is very friendly.

Miinukset: This place needs a serious review by management. At $170 USD/night, I was expecting a LOT more. Aside from the pool, beach and views...I would never recommend this place. I understand this is an island and expect the occasional bugs/lizards, but our room was crawling with insects. I brought a pizza home and placed it on our table in our room, within 15 minutes it was completely covered in ants. The toilet/sink were stained a dark color from the water. When we first got to the room, I actually thought someone had urinated in the bathroom and not flushed the toilet because of the discolored water. Not pleasant. There was visible mold throughout the bathroom and all throughout the shower door fix Located 20+ minutes from the restaurants in town, the resort should have appropriate food options for those who don't wish to go into town for every meal. For 3 out of 4 of our days here, the majority of the menu was unavailable. How can there be no fresh fish on an island resort? The resort also ran out of bottled water twice during our stay. One day I asked for a grilled cheese sandwich, after waiting 45 minutes I was given two pieces of uncooked bread and cheese and tomato slices. Nothing heated/grilled. My room was cleaned and no fresh towels were provided. I had to wait 2 hours for clean towels to be delivered to the room so we could shower. While the staff was very pleasant throughout our stay, it was an extremely poor experience and I'd like my stay to be reviewed by management as I believe this feedback is echoed by MANY of the guests I interacted with over the course of our stay.

Plussat: Amazing view from room, sitting area and the massage was out standing

Miinukset: Nothing so precise
