Brighter stay at Isla Amara
Pros:

Back at Isla Amara Boutique Resort and it still feels like home away from home. 🌴✨

We first stayed here last January 2025, and because of such a great experience, we came back with friends last May 6–9, 2026. And once again, Isla Amara did not disappoint. 💛

The place is peaceful, cozy, and perfect for anyone who wants to relax and enjoy El Nido’s beauty. The food was absolutely superb — special thanks to the chef for the unforgettable seafood carbonara, kilawin na tanigue, and calamari. Every dish was chef’s kiss! 🤍

And of course, thank you so much to Ms. Claire for being extra warm, accommodating, and genuinely kind to us throughout our stay. Your hospitality made our trip even more memorable.

Definitely one of those places you’ll keep coming back to. 🌊☀️ #ElNido #IslaAmara #PalawanGetaway #TravelPH #LioBeach #BeachEscape #IslandLife #VacationMode #ElNidoExperience

Pros:

Excelente resort, el personal super cordial y atento a las necesidades. Muy limpio. La ubicación en lio beach excelente a pasos de la mejor playa. A pocos minutos en Tuc Tuc del nido para tomar las excursiones a las islas. Muy recomendable, volvería a elegirlo.

מלון חביב קצת יקר ביחס למה שהוא נותן
Pros:

מלון בוטיקי מאוד בליאו ביץ
הבייסיק של הבייסיק, חדרים קטנים ונקיים בסך הכל.
הזרם במקלחת חלש נורא ולפעמים המים החמים עושים בעיות.
הבריכה חמודה אך לא מאוד נקייה.
ארוחת הבוקר דלה ביותר.

Een luxe ervaring met het strand op loopafstand!
Pros:

Abnormaal fijn verblijf. Het beste tot nu toe in de Filipijnen. Het personeel hielp onwijs goed met alles! Het strand op loopafstand was bijzonder goed!

Cons:

Het ontbijt is voor Filipijnse begrippen heel goed maar wij vonden het niet heel lekker. Je zit in een duurder gebied van El Nido. Dat merk je bij de restaurants

Overall loved it. Thank you.
Pros:

Location and Room.

Cons:

The Bar needs some TLC. Empty shelves. No staff available when I sat at the bar for 4 to 5 minutes. Great space and revenue opportunity just no one driving it.

Almost perfect stay
Pros:

I loved the location close to Lio Beach and all amazing restaurants. The room was well designed and very comfortable. Fan, AC, pool access, fridge, big smart TV with Netflix. Good, simple free breakfast and free airport transfers were good add ons. Wonderful and helpful staff.

Cons:

The sewage smell in the bathroom, no matter how the housekeeping or myself, tried to fix it. There were little annoying flies that were coming from nowhere despite closed doors. An alarm that was turning on like 7 times a day.

Internet
Pros:

Although this Hotel was near the beach it has very bad internet and WiFi and the Internet in our room was very weak and that we couldn’t use it
