Peaceful and quiet stay. relaxing ang chill. the place is great to stay, excellent views. We were even upgraded to beach villa. staff are friendly and helpful. restaurant has a variety of international and local cuisines. Tried tasty grouper shashimi straight from the sea. they have a cage for live fish and we just pick the one we need. would definitely come back. wifi is 250MBPS in a very remote area. so I was also able to do some work.

Staff was wonderful. Food options could be more wide. Breakfast can have more Filipino pastries or sweets.
3-night trip

10/10

disappointed that we were not able to meet the minimums for an outing. I strongly suggest adding beer and wine to the restaurant menu.
4-night trip

2/10

No activities offered, paid for a room with a terrace and got a horrible one instead, old, looks dirty, employees don’t speak good English, food not recommended. Rip off for price I paid, over priced, rooms not as described! Not happy with my stay at all!

Great views and very attentive staff. We had a Swedish massage and it was amazing. Maybe the food options can be improved. We did kayak tour to the a deserted beach and it was beautiful.

I made a mistake booking this hotel. I thought it was Miniloc. But, I was pleasantly surprised and extremely happy with the customer service and persistent attention to details. Russel was super helpful. John was extremely cautious and careful in handling senior citizens during the lagoon tour. EJ was so pleasant during the welcome tour. Most of all, Mr James trained and managed his staff well. I will definitely be back with more guests. Highly recommend
3-night trip

10/10

I like a lot the beach and the position, the care and attention by the working team and the excursions to the nearby islands that I believe it is a must should you are getting there from far away. The restaurant is a bit expensive compare to shore ones (but it is also an island and logistic cost) and the excursions are a bit expensive but they were private ones and we really had a good time and enjoyed them all.

Perfect dreamy stay on a semi private resort to have a couple of days in addition to a longer stay in El Nido (in the mai island). Wouldn't suggest to spend your whole holiday there

Amazing staff, quiet location, beautiful scenery, and overall wonderful experience! My husband had a memorable birthday trip and we truly enjoyed our stay. Shoutout to Mr. Choi (GM), Jhonna, Niño, Dave, Julia and Rassel for the exceptional service in their different areas. We felt really taken care of. 10/10 would highly recommend.
4-night trip

10/10

The staff was exceptional. If you want a true getaway from it all this place is it. Not much to do but sit at the beach, swim in the ocean, or in the two pools. Wish there were more dining options on site, but the smoothies and juices were excellent!
