Pros:

All perfect.

Cons:

The stairs as well as the path to the reception should be illuminated as when getting dark you don't see anything and someone might fall.

Aan te raden!
Pros:

Schone kamers, super vriendelijk personeel en een vers ontbijt dat elke morgen op de patio werd gebracht. De eigenaar stond gedurende ons hele verblijf voor ons klaar voor onze vragen en het boeken van een tour of scooter. Ze bieden dagelijks nieuwe handdoeken aan voor op de kamer en er liggen handdoeken bij het zwembad. Alles is netjes verzorgd en er is een drinkwater tap bij de receptie. Alles was top!

Cons:

Het is 10-15 minuten lopen naar het centrum van El Nido. Echter is dit prima te doen en kun je ook voor 100 pesos een Tuktuk naar het centrum nemen.

Pros:

Hotel pequeño muy acogedor, bien situado y con un a piscina pequeña que era una maravilla después de un día de excursión. Agua filtrada gratis todos los dias. La habitación amplia con ducha separada del baño!!! Y con una mininevera para guardar bebida

Cons:

Contratamos con ellos las excursiones y nos recomendaron coger una privada ( muy muy cara), nos fueron a recoger al hotel pero a la vuelta nos dejaron tirados en el puerto y nos dijeron ahí tenéis tricycles para ir al hotel.... No merece la pena hacerlo por privado, el resto las cogimos compartidas y bien

Très bien
Pros:

L’emplacement est idéal, à seulement 10 minutes à pied du centre-ville et de la plage d’où partent les bateaux pour les excursions à la journée.

Cons:

Avec la climatisation allumée, il faisait trop froid avec seulement un petit drap, mais dès qu’on l’éteignait, la chaleur devenait vite étouffante. Une couverture supplémentaire aurait permis d’être plus à l’aise.
