Positive: The place is wonderful for prople who love nature, relaxation and peace. The stuff was excellent, the owners Rochelle and Alberto were very warmhearted and always ready to help. We were very happy with the lovely dogs Brownie, Snow and Danta and the cat Tiger. The food was very delicious, every day different fresh seafood and lovely mango tiramisu. We had an excellent fishing experience and we learned a lot for the local fishing technique and different kind of fishes in the sea. Thank you very much to Rochelle, Alberto. Mabella, her husband and the whole stuff! We will recommend the lovely place to everyone and will come back with pleasure. We felt like we were at home.

Travel Purpose: leisure

Positive: The absolute highlight of our stay was Mabel. She went above and beyond for every guest and truly made a difference. Without her, we honestly would have left early. She created such a warm and welcoming atmosphere and made our evenings enjoyable. The rooms themselves were also fairly okay—nothing special, but acceptable.

Negative: Unfortunately, the rest of the resort feels very neglected and lacks care. The entire place seems loveless and poorly maintained. The beach was covered in plastic waste, which is completely unacceptable. The overall cleanliness of the property was disappointing—it often looked dirty and unkempt. While we understand that there is currently a trainee in the kitchen, the food was only average and not something to look forward to. Evenings were quite dull, with little to do and a generally uninspiring atmosphere.

Summary: Great Staff, Disappointing Resort

Positive: The property has a great location ideal escape from hectic city of El Nido. The staff was amazing and will do anything to make you feel comfortable and at home. The food was excellent.

Negative: The property feels like half of it is under construction. Some areas are nice and well kept while some areas feel abandoned/under construction. The beach was quite dirty unfortunately, even though that isn’t entirely the hotel’s responsibility (they tried to keep their beach area clean)
