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!

It was such a wonderful place where a lot of care has been given to the design and the facilities. The staff is extremely friendly, made us feel at home and really took care of us. We chose this place because it was close to the airport but we wished that we had booked more nights there! We had such a relaxing time at the pool and the hostel is close to Lio beach and about 10 min away from the center. We would love to come again one day.

The staff were absolutely amazing at Sip Sunset. From the moment we arrived we felt so relaxed- everyone was so friendly and they really went the extra mile to make our stay special.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

The Hostel is very welcoming, providing free breakfast to those staying. The staff and managers were all especially kind and treated you with respect & were able to help with trips and tours. It was my first experience in a hostel & I met loads of new people and had an unforgettable experience. The place had a perfect balance of fun & relaxing moments with the different activities they did every night which was also nice. An overall great place to stay for those on a budget and especially solo travellers

One of the best hostel I've been to so far. Located a little outside El Nido, the place is quiet at night. Great vibe and music until 8-9pm. Good value for money. The facilities are very good, first time I see bunk beds with double sized mattresses. Everything has been well thought about. The building itself is very cool and the space invites to chill. Breakfast is amazing, with omelet station and plenty of food. Staff is super nice.

Probably the best hostel I stayed in, very private place to sleep (with the door and the shelves and private fan and light and pretty spacious). Great location, very friendly staff, water and snacks for free. It was a great experience!
