The location is excellent — very close to the airport, with a convenience store on the right and a popular restaurant on the left. The host is very thoughtful and caring, and gave me lots of helpful support. Definitely a 5-star stay! 🤭 The place is beautifully decorated. There’s also a sturdy locker for your belongings. And it’s great that they have a female-only room!

Such great value for money. The beds were super cosy and comfy. Wifi great and nicely chilled water dispenser. I was feeling poorly so didn't manage to get to the bar or restaurant, but the bed was cosy enough to rest up in.

This is a beautiful new accommodation just a 5/10 min tuk tuk from the main hustle bustle of el nido, so ideal to escape the chaos of the main town. The accommodation itself is really beautiful and you couldn't get any better staff looking after you. The shower facilities are the best I've experienced in the Philippines. If I'm ever back in el nido this is the only place for me to stay

Hostel new and have great new amenities,10 mins walking from centre but easily manageable. Rooms are dark so it keeps cool air in the room. If you want cheap nice room this is place to choose it from for short stop to El NIdo.
