Very expensive property for what it is. But the places in El Nido town are dilapidated and El Nido is pricey.
The room is basic but clean, bathroom isn’t great. The breakfast needs substantial improvement it’s extremely basic for the money.
The female manager floats around doing nothing all day, the rest of the staff are helpful.
Overall I would stay again but felt this is a very basic hotel for £130/night.
100m from lio beach though which is absolutely beautiful and dead quiet.

Hotel is 10 minutes from El Nido Airport and free shuttle. Good selection on Restaurants around the hotel and beach is nearby. Free shuttles to downtown. All Staff are friendly, helpul and accomodating especially Romeo from the receptionist, Jade and JR the driver. Also, Keith, the nurse was so good to us, very helpful. Hotel is brilliant and room is clean.
CONS: Swimming pool needs cleaning everyday, drivers to downtown should NEVER USE PHONES WHILST DRIVING PLEASE.

4/10 Fair
I liked the friendly and accommodating staff, even though they lacked training and managerial direction. I liked the property and location in general.
The food was awful. Everything fried and more suited to a budget hostel. My wife is a hotelier GM and it appears that the owners cut operational costs such as food and experienced chefs in order to maximize profits. Likewise, there may be only one manager for several properties for the same reason. The design of the rooms and property focus on appearance rather than function. Ie; large tv mounted on limited table space instead of wall, bidet on wrong side in bathroom, no electrical outlet in bathroom for hair dryer, safety deposit box not attached to anything, improperly mounted bathroom faucet, some electrical outlets not working (usually a sign of defective wiring or installation - particularly at the key card breaker device)). Lots of water from rainfall spilling onto lounge areas and hallways due to improper or lack of diversion from roof water.
The road to the resort is not paved and full of potholes. It even has a reasonably large tree directly in the center of the road in compliance with the ‘eco’ theme of the resort. Likewise, guests can expect to be ‘mosquito food’ as the resort does not want to spray them. This in an area at risk of dengue, malaria and other mosquito borne diseases. The staff also admitted that they captured a large poisonous snake on the property but had to release it.

來這邊前一晚在科隆吃壞東西
沿路一直吐 吐到全身無力痠痛虛脫到發燒
沒想到這邊有醫務室
醫護人員超細心跟我們用英文溝通
開了藥跟補充電解質的水讓我舒緩
(只要有入住集團的飯店，開藥什麼都是免費的唷！)
也讓我在醫務室躺著睡覺休息
休息了一天 隔天就康復了 真的是救星！
出來玩如果不舒服 真的很折騰
很慶幸這有醫護人員 讓我後面幾天的旅程有美好的回憶！

Really nice property outside of town (20mins in a tricycle) in a new area which is nice and quiet. Near a beach and restaurants and bars. Really modern and nice inside, our room was lovely and the pool was also great. Air con smelt awful but that was our only issue. Breakfast was nice but not the best.

Un bel hôtel dans l'ensemble, idéalement situé sur une magnifique plage, mais beaucoup de petits détails qui font qu'il est beaucoup trop cher pour ce qu'il est : literie au confort très moyen, oreillers très hauts et compacts et impossible d'en obtenir un bas, ménage très sommaire, petit déjeuner à peine passable, piscine mal entretenue (formation d'algues sur les parois ce qui ne donne pas envie de se baigner). Vu le prix très élevé pour les Philippines, on s'attend à mieux. Globalement moyen donc. Le fait que l'hôtel soit récent dans un superbe environnement avec un personnel sympathique remonte le niveau.

La plage lio beach a deux pas de l'hôtel avec plusieurs restaurants pour tous les goûts. Belle piscine. Petit déjeuner varié. Bien placé au calme loin du centre(15min) et sécurisé par des agents. Plus navette gratuite mais il faut s'y prendre en avance. Tricycles a dispositions a tout heure (payants).

Underbar hotellvistelse! Fräscha, rymliga rum, trevlig personal, fantastisk frukost (efter att i tre veckor druckit svagt, filippinskt kaffe hade casa kalaw ett kaffe som lyckades uppnå våra kräsna/kinkiga preferenser). Allt var tipp topp helt enkelt! Kommer definitivt bo här igen nästa gång jag besöker Filippinerna

Staff were very helpful and friendly. Breakfast is ok. Roads going there is awe full, hard to bring in full size luggage. If the roads were good and the room is not missing some items like a safe, the $148/night I paid was just right.

es ist egal, ob man im Adlao, Covo oder Kalaw übernachtet, die Zimmerausstattung ist die gleiche, da sie alle zur gleichen Investorgruppe gehören. Wer einen Pool von 15m braucht, dann Casa Kalaw, das mehr ist 100m entfernt. Die Nähe zum Flughafen fanden wir extrem praktisch, keine Sorge um Fluglärm, da kommen nur kleine Flieger. Nach El Nido gibts nen kostenlosen Busshuttle. der ganze Areal ist sehr ruhig, genug Restaurants vorhanden.

Pleasant stay overall. The front desk personnel were always nice and helpful. The WiFi was good. The included buffet breakfast was also pretty good with different options everyday. The fooseball table and pool table looked pretty old.. There is a shuttle service to town but it only comes and goes hourly and they can only bring one full van per trip. There are quite some good restaurants around the property. Very quiet, serene, secure. Expect a very bumpy ride to the place.
