The staff of Miniloc get five stars for giving their guests the best experience that beautiful El Nido and the resort can offer.
Mercedes, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The hotel is in a perfect enclave of a cove surrounded by mountains and jungle, with beautiful flowers and even some monkeys on the trees. The reef by the hotel is rich in life and just a swim away. The hotel is conveniently located close to the big laggon and small lagoon, which are breathtaking landscapes. The staff is amazing, all very friendly and ready to help. The rooms are somewhat small but in such a beautiful setting that it feels great. Meals and tours to the lagoons are included which justifies the price.

Magnifique expérience

Nous avons séjourné 4 nuits dans la chambre deluxe vue mer no 64 la dernière au bout de la jetée. Aucun vis a vis si ce n'est quelques locaux qui prennent leur bateau. Je recommande le tour en kayak à big lagoon a 6h du mat inclus dans le prix de la chambre. Seuls dans le lagon, top. Nous avons egalement fait Small lagoon tres sympa aussi car visite l'après-midi quand les touristes partent. Les 2 sont à 5 mi. De l'hôtel. Lautre excursion comprise est un tour de 4h vers secret lagoon, une belle plage et du snorkeling cetait bien mais trop de monde sur les sites et le snorkeling est aussi joli a l'hôtel. Devant l'hôtel très jolis coraux, etoiles de mer bleures avec de jolis poissons même s'ils ne sont pas extrêmement nombreux et tous les matins une tortue à qui ils donnent a manger. Cote nourriture, elle est tres bonne mais le choix n'est pas immense donc sur 4 jours cela peut etre répétitif. Côté boissons, l'hôtel n'en parle pas mais il existe un forfait boissons à 3800 peso par personne par jour donc un peu plus de 60 euros, au dela de 5 verres par jour cela vaut le coup de le prendre car les boissons sont tres chères 650 peso soit 10 euros pour une bière alors que dans les autres hotels c'est moins de 200 peso. Le personnel de l'hôtel est tres accueillant et se plie en 4 pour vous faire plaisir Pour résumer nous avons passé 4 jours de rêve dans un lieu idyllique, les paysages sont magnifiques

또가고 싶은 곳

일단 삼시세끼 조식 메뉴가 4일동안 매번 매일 다 다르고 맛있었습니다. 4일동안 10끼 이상 먹으면 메뉴가 겹칠 법도 한데, 다 다르더군요. 숙소도 넓고 편합니다. 다만 침대가 조금 딱딱해서 아쉬웠는데, 체크아웃하는 날 모든게 다 좋았지만 그부분은 좀 아쉬웠다고 카운터에 얘기하니 '왜 미리 얘기 안했냐고, 우리가 바꿔줬을텐데'라고 얘기하더군요. 근데 이런거 저런거 다 떠나서 여기 경치가 진짜 좋습니다. 해변도 이쁘고 뒤에 자연과 절벽, 가끔 보이는 원숭이들에 바로 앞 바다에 들어가면 보이는 거북이에 물밖에서도 물 안에서도 물고기들 한가득 보이고 밤하늘엔 별들까지 가득합니다, 그 외 간단히 즐길 레포츠들과 수영장에 휴식공간까지 어느하나 부족한거 없이 좋았습니다. 공항에서부터 전용라운지, 전용보트픽업, 투어로 전용해변, 여러 무료 투어들까지 있어서 돈이 하나도 안아까웠어요. 다음에 또 가고 싶습니다.

カップルや小さなお子さん連れなど、幅広くオススメできる高級アイランドリゾート！

2025年2月に家族で1泊しました。 モルディブのような「高級1アイランド1リゾート」方式で、島には欧米系と日本人の宿泊客しかおらず、のんびりした快適な時間を過ごせました。 食事は3食付き、アクティビティも動力を使わない系はほぼ全部無料なので、一度払っておけば島でお金の心配をしなくていいのがよかったです。 ◆食事について 3食ともバイキングでそこそこ美味しかったです。 強いて言うなら、そこまで種類が多くないので3泊くらいする場合は飽きるかも？ ◆アクティビティについて 桟橋の先のハウスリーフはそのままドロップオフになっており、シュノーケリングでたくさんの熱帯魚を見たり、深い海の底を覗きこんだりできます。 また、スモールラグーン、ビッグラグーンエルニド本島からのツアーAなど、様々なツアーに宿泊者は無料で参加できて、10分程度でアクセスできるので本当に便利でした。特に、早朝のビッグラグーンは一見の価値ありです。 ◆部屋について ガーデンコテージはそこまで広くないですが、外でのんびり滞在する時間が多いので、あまり気になりません。部屋もバスルームも清潔でした。 ◆スタッフについて 皆親切で笑顔です。リオ港からのボート送迎から始まり、アクティビティの相談に乗ってくれたり、バスタオルをアクティビティや飲み水をいいタイミング渡してくれるなど、ホスピタリティが素晴らしいです。 最後に、気をつけることとしては ・時期によってはクラゲが出る ・アルコールが１杯500〜800ペソしてかなり高いので、お酒をたくさん飲む人は本島から持ってきたほうがいい ・出発前に、本島での合流場所を明確にメールで決めておく（私の場合は、前日までリオに泊まっていたのでリオの桟橋からボートが出ました） くらいだと思います。 迷っていたら、ぜひ一度泊まりに来ることをお勧めします。 高い金額を払ってでまくる価値はあると思います！

traumhaftes Inselresort mit vielen Aktivitäten

Ein wirlich traumhaftes Inselresort, mit äußerst freundlichem und höflichem Personal, sehr schönen täglichen Ausflügen zur Big Lagoon (gleich um die Ecker), zur Small Laggon, zur Secret Lagoon (beide auch auf Miniloc Island), Schnorcheln vor Shimizu Island und Baden am Traumstrand von Entalula Island. All diese Ausflüge sind im Zimmerpreis inklusive. Das Resort verleiht auch gratis Kajaks und Schnorchelausrüstung. Im Hausriff vor dem Resort haben wir beim Schnorcheln eine Schildkröte und eine Seeanemone mit darin lebenden Clownfischen gefunden. Wenn man Glück hat sieht man im Resort auch eine Makakenbande und einen Varan. 5 Tage im Paradies.
