Happiness Hostel El Nido features a shared lounge, terrace, a restaurant and bar in El Nido. The accommodation provides a 24-hour front desk, airport transfers, luggage storage space and free WiFi.

The area is popular for cycling, and car hire is available at the hostel. Happiness Hostel El Nido is honestly one of the best hostels we’ve ever stayed in. It’s right on the beach, the atmosphere is lively with daily activities, and the staff are incredibly friendly. They offer free coffee and bananas, the washrooms are clean, and the beds are genuinely comfortable. The hostel’s restaurant and bar are great as well, and guests get a nice discount. I honestly couldn’t find anything negative to say about this place. Highly recommended if you want a fun, comfortable, beachfront stay in El Nido.

Hop Hostel offers rooms with free WiFi with limited access in Coron, well set 300 meters from Mount Tapyas. This 2-star hostel offers a shared kitchen and a shared lounge. The accommodation provides luggage storage space for guests. Hop Hostel has a rooftop which is best for sunset viewing. Perfect in every way, can't fault it. This has to be one of the top 5 hostels I've ever stayed in in the world. You could literally have a mini holiday here and not leave. The king size beds are a first for me. Pool, beanbag area by the pool, rooftop bar, cinema room, in house restaurant (I recommend the sizzling tofu), planned activities every day, including boat trip. Free dinner sample! Thank you to all the staff, they go the extra mile to make your stay as comfortable as possible, attention to detail, spotless, even change the shower mats daily. This place is not to be missed.

Situated within 4.3 km of Maquinit Hot Spring and less than 1 km of Coron Public Market, Kaiz Hostel features rooms with air conditioning and a shared bathroom in Coron. Attractively situated in the Coron Town Proper district, this hostel is located 1.7 km from Mount Tapyas. The property is 400 metres from the city centre and 2.6 km from Dicanituan Beach. Everything was great. Despite being 12 people in the room, it was very quiet and we had enough space for everything. There are big lockers under the bed, free coffee and water, 2 showers+2 toilets which was enough. The family was very helpful, friendly and empathetic. They kept my bag in their house for the whole day while I was gone for a day trip, and helped with booking the tour. I'd highly recommend if you want to sleep during the night.
