Cadlao Resort & Restaurant
10/10 Excellent
"We enjoyed our stay at Cadlao. Disappointing was lack of little fridge in the room. Staff was always very friendly."

Bahala Na Villas
10/10 Excellent
"We had an absolutely fantastic stay at the villa and would rate the entire experience a perfect 10 out of 10. From the moment we arrived, everything exceeded our expectations. Check-in was smooth and welcoming, with refreshing coconut drinks waiting for us, which immediately set the tone for a relaxing and enjoyable stay.
One of the highlights was the amazing private pool. It was beautifully maintained, offering complete privacy and the perfect place to unwind at any time of the day. Whether it was a morning swim or a quiet evening dip, it truly made the stay feel luxurious.
The staff were exceptional throughout our visit. They were always friendly, attentive, and incredibly helpful with anything we needed. We decided to rent motorbikes during our stay, and the staff made the whole process effortless, providing great support and guidance, which made exploring the area even more enjoyable.
The food was another standout feature. Every meal we had was delicious, fresh, and clearly prepared with care. It added so much to the overall experience and made dining at the villa something we looked forward to every day.
On checkout, we were pleasantly surprised with a thoughtful farewell gift of homemade cashew sweets with sugar, which was a lovely and memorable touch.
Overall, everything about our stay was perfect. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing and well-cared-for villa experience."

Charlie's El Nido Managed by HII
8/10 Good
"The hotel is fairly new, clean and with a nice pool area. The staff is attentive and helpful. You can book all tours directly with reception. The room is spacious and comfortable. However, the air con has some very strong lights which blink overnight, disturbing your sleep. The roosters next door were also a natural alarm clock we did not want to have in our holidays. Although fresh, the buffet breakfast was more like a continental type and could have a bigger variety of western food including cheese and cold cuts. Lastly, the shuttle times to the city and Lio beach were very limited (once in the morning and once in the evening), so we had to pay for a Tuc-tuc to get to those places nearly every time; it would be great if the shuttle ran every hour for guest convenience. Overall it was a great stay."

Karuna El Nido Villas
8/10 Good
"Good stay thank you.
Food from the restaurant was very inconsistent. Either perfectly hot and delicious or stone cold and gross. Also took a very long time to arrive with meals forgotten often."

Lime Resort El Nido
4/10 Poor
"This was my first stay at Lime Resort El Nido. The view from the hotel is magical. The sunsets are some of the best I have ever seen. That was the only good thing about our stay. We where booked into a nice room with a great water front view but it was so hot and the AC did not work. They up graded us to there top rooms with the same great view but the room was dirty. I walked from the entrance to the balcony with bare feet that went black from dirty floor. The shower leaks all over the bathroom as the cracks in the door let the shower water leak all over it. Then, the problem with lighting, in the middle of the night the lights will turn on for no reason. Told the front desk and a maintenance guy came and fixed it our last night out of 5 nights. Now for the food and beverage department....being a restaurant owner and running major hotel kitchens over my career I can say this is one of the most poorly run food and beverage departments. Breakfast is not up to standard for a supposedly 4 star hotel. Cheap brands of meats, juices and same fruits every day. The only good one was the egg station where the 2 guys where great. This could be a really spectacular property if the upper management took some pride in what they have here. This is not a cheap hotel to stay at. So it should be run with some pride. Most of the employees are friendly but need some leadership to bring it up to where it should be. If, it doesn't improve, t will fail. I will not recommend this hotel in El Nido."
