"This is a beautiful place within 10-15 mins boat ride from the lagoons. The accommodation is spacious and tastefully decorated. The only complaint was a bit of rain coming through the roof at times of heavy rain. Staff cannot be more accommodating, friendly and attentive, making guests feel welcome and right at home. They offer quite a few inclusive excursions to nearby attractions, which is very nice. Food in the restaurant is a bit dear for the Philippines but the taste and quality is...
"Big Paul’s is the place to be in El Nido - we didn’t know what to expect and opted for a private twin room with for £15 each
Free rum and coke - for 3 hours
Copious free shots - made by Paul himself
Loads of other amazing backpackers from around the world
Free breakfast and just everyone is so nice!
5 mins in a tricycle from El Nido town centre
Bike rental yards away
Can’t fault it one bit - we only wish we could have stayed longer (my liver probs couldn’t take it though)"
""I had an incredible stay! From the moment I arrived, I was blown away by the breathtaking view—it was truly unforgettable. What made the experience even more special was the outstanding hospitality. The staff were exceptionally friendly and welcoming at every turn. Whether it was the front desk team, housekeeping, or even the security guard, everyone went out of their way to greet me with a smile and show genuine respect. This level of service is rare and truly appreciated. I can't wait to come...
"Abbiamo soggiornato 3 notti in questa bellissima struttura. L’accesso è tramite la spiaggia - cosa che all’inizio suonava un po’ strana, ma in realtà è bellissimo. Il team è molto disponibile ad aiutare con il trasporto dei bagagli. Ci sono diversi gradini senza ascensore per raggiungere le camere, ma lo sforzo viene ricambiato da una bella vista. L’hotel ha anche una piccola spiaggia che è molto comoda se ci si vuole riposare per avere accesso diretto senza doversi spostare o andare in barca,...
"We enjoyed our stay in Karuna! The view from our room was spectacular! The staff were great and very good with communication. The transfer van that leaves every hour was very convenient. We will definitely come back!"
"The property grounds were beautiful and well-kept, with everything conveniently located nearby. The front desk staff was warm, welcoming, and quick to assist—especially after a mix-up with my booking agent. A special thank you to Patricia at the front desk for handling everything with such professionalism and care."
"I had a really good time staying at Bulskamp Inn as the staff and everyone is incredibly friendly and accommodating. Rey helped me a lot in figuring how to get places and also with booking a guide for a certain hike literally the day before. The room is nice with good AC and bathroom. Would recommend!"
"Very clean! Very kind staff. Good food, breakfast and drinks. Nice pool. They have a private beach called Papaya Beach, a very clean one too. The ride to the private beach is free with a great tour guide. The beach has great spot for snorkeling. I highly highly recommend this place! "
"Our stay at El Nido Bayview Resort was phenomenal. The service from the staff was incredible and made our stay truly memorable. We felt right at home and we will definitely return some day. "
