Enkelt, mysigt, lugnt, ljuvligt läge
Pros:

Supermysig bungalow precis vid stranden. Allt var bra, de som drev stället är jättetrevliga. Stranden är fantastisk. Väldigt lite folk vilket vi tyckte var bra. Det verkar som att det byggs mycket nytt i området, så skynda dit innan alla andra.

Nom de l’hôtel mensongé !!
Pros:

Juste son emplacement face à la mer où on pouvait prendre un café le matin
La jeune fille qui nous reçoit est gentille ( mais aux Philippines ils sont tous gentils) mais dépassée !

Cons:

Le nom de l’établissement est trompeur, on est à presque 1h du Centre De El Nido. Si on aime la solitude, on est agrément agréablement surpris si on recherche de la compagnie ça pose un souci.
Sur la photo, nous pensions louer toute une jolie cabane face à la mer, c’est ce qu’on recherchait, mais en fait elle est partagée en deux avec juste une fine cloison où on entend une page de livres se tourner !!!
Vu le prix qui est demandé c’est malhonnête par rapport à d’autres prestations !
Le sol de la salle de bain est inversé si bien que l’eau ne peu pas s’évacuer et stagne donc tu vas aux toilettes avec toujours les pieds dans l’eau stagnante !
Pas d’eau chaude et des coupures d’électricité mais ça c’est normal ( enfin pour nous)

Pros:

Lokalizacja znakomita, bardzo uczynna i sympatyczna prowadząca Pani, duży, czysty pokój i weranda.
Jeśli przeszkadza ci pianie kogutów, szum fal i wszędzie obecny piasek, to się tu nie wybieraj.

A peaceful and quiet beach location with a kind host, but it may not be suitable for everyone.
Pros:

The host was very friendly and welcoming, and we appreciated the warm, personal atmosphere as the hut is located within their family property.

Cons:

The area is quite remote, which may be a plus for those looking for peace and quiet. However, access can be a bit challenging, as there are no proper roads leading to the property, even our tuktuk driver struggled to reach it. There are also only a few dining options nearby, so it’s helpful to plan ahead.

The accommodation consists of two units separated by a thin wall. When our neighbors arrived, it felt as we were all in the same room. Unfortunately, we also had ants in the bed.

We had originally booked four nights but decided to shorten our stay after the first night, as it wasn’t quite the right fit for us.

I can highly recommend the White Hut to anyone who prefers peace and relaxation.
Pros:

The location was very good and the hosts were very helpful and friendly. There was a restaurant right next door, which was very convenient. The coconuts were very tasty.

Cons:

The road to the accommodation was very off-road and the transport prices were very high.

Joyce was amazing
Pros:

Joyce the staff member was fantastic, helpful and polite

Cons:

Shocking location, facilities, hygiene, 0 food spots near, no shops near by.

Honestly worst location we have stayed in, in Asia to the point after a singular night (we had no choice it was to late to book elsewhere) we had to book a new accommodation it was that bad

Good
Pros:

Very nice staff and beach is not full of people. Could be nice and calm place to relax. Room is very basic but clean.

Cons:

Bucana Beach seems not to be yet very well known and getting there and out from there is not as easy as other destinations. But what bothered me most was the noice. Roosters etc. Are ok, but closeby the accommodation there was terrible and very loud karaoke or (bad) music from early morning to late night. Would have been nice to listen to waves and rest, but no...very unfortunate as the owners were very nice.
