Loved my stay at Blau Hostel! The vibe is super chill, and the staff is super friendly. Plus, the Starlink Wi-Fi was great i could work comfortably without any issues. The small pool is perfect and they have the coldest beers I found in the Philippines. The location is very nice, close to everything but still peaceful. Definitely recommend it if you're in El Nido!

We absolutely loved our stay at Casa Buko! The hosts were incredibly helpful and attentive. Breakfast had several options, with good amount of different fruits. The house itself is beautifully designed — super spacious, new, clean, we were one of the first guests. The Wi-Fi was strong enough for remote work, which was a big plus. Location is very close to Lio Beach and the airport.

This has to be the best beach suite in El Nido. Right on the beach, a really cool, covered decking area outside with hammock, chairs, and table. The beach is right there in front of this. The beach itself is about 2km long, gorgeous, palm lined, and peaceful. The food was superb and the owner and staff couldn't do enough for us. Great location for some jungle treks to stunning waterfalls and mountain climbs to 360-degree view deck. We can't wait to return.

The location is absolutely beautiful—peaceful, serene, and away from the busyness of El Nido town. I have honestly never felt so relaxed during a trip. In just a few days, it felt like a full reset. Julius and Raya, who built and run the hotel, are incredibly kind and welcoming. As two girls travelling together, we felt completely safe and looked after the entire time. The beachside setting was perfect—we were more than happy to stay put, soak in the views, and unwind. There are a few lovely restaurants on the beach and local shops nearby for anything you need. The facilities were spotless and thoughtfully done. Everything felt clean, calm, and well cared for. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking to truly relax and enjoy a slower pace. A hidden gem, and somewhere I’d return to in a heartbeat.

I liked everything. The street around may not look so good, but inside the hotel everything is perfect. The size of the room, the size of the bathroom, the cleanliness, everything is good. And not too far from the center. Still walkable. Finding the hotel is also easy, take the first aisle on the left side of the church.

    Gordo and Cristina are formidable hosts, very kind and helpful. I initally booked 2 nights there and ended up staying 5 nights. The guesthouse really feels like home with everything needed and easy to socialise with the hosts and other guests. It is located in a district of locals a bit outside the crowd of the city center (but easily reachable at 10mn walking distance), which was pleasant. The room and bathrooms were clean, the breakfast very good. I'll surely come back next time I go to El Nido.
