First of all, there was the welcoming group arrival & departure greetings. Secondly, the resort made extra effort to locate our luggages misplaced by the airline that handled our transfer from the airport to the Lio Jetty. Thirdly, the resort understood the speciifc needs of our group with a dedicated escort/guide from start to finish. We look forward to re-visiting the resort in the future. ##### Robin Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Paola 28 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Just beautiful, excellent service and amazing food! ##### Paola Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jamie 22 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Most beautiful property I've ever stayed! ##### Jamie Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### MICHAEL 10 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Awesome resort.

It’s a trip me and my wife will always cherish. ##### Edward Stayed 4 nights in Jan 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Nitsan 4 Jan 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We were a family of 4 adults (parents and daughters) and we stayed in 2 separate beach villas. At the check in we have been told that the two villas are not going to be next to each other. They are actually going to be far from one another. After complaining we got the two rooms next to each other. Also, we have been told by the dive master that we will not be able to dive for at least the first 2-3 days because they don’t have enough staff. I have been in touch with the hotel reservations for almost 8 months and in none of the correspondence I have been told to book the dives in advance. Luckily the resort go us an excellent dive master from El Nido. He (Larry Tonia) saved our trip and made it unforgettable. Re the dive boats, they were not built for diving. The boats are actually extremely unsafe for divers. If you need more information and details about this matter, please free to contact me. The villas were excellent, very spacious, lots of complimentary toiletry, 2 A/C’s, ample closet space, etc. Housekeeping and ground keeping were beyond excellent. The bar on the ground level and the restaurant in the upper level were amazing. The food was excellent and fresh. They accommodate our dietary restrictions every time. The service was in both places was beyond outstanding.

The accommodation is spacious and tastefully decorated. The only complaint was a bit of rain coming through the roof at times of heavy rain. Staff cannot be more accommodating, friendly and attentive, making guests feel welcome and right at home. They offer quite a few inclusive excursions to nearby attractions, which is very nice. Food in the restaurant is a bit dear for the Philippines but the taste and quality is excellent. Ideal stay for 3-5 days to explore the beautiful nature around El Nido. ##### Panagiotis Stayed 7 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jan 8 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Gorgeous place in fabulous setting.

Wonderful facilities with attentive staff, great food & dining. Location is close to best sights and gives you an early jump before hordes of tourists show up each day. Bit more expensive than other resorts but we definitely feel it is worth it. Hollywood also agrees as they were there filming an upcoming movie release but didn’t inconvenience us at all. ##### Steven Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Marco 10 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Guest Service and the whole experience was amazingly beautiful ##### Marco Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Majid 10 Apr 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Resort is great and the island that it is on along with its surroundings is gorgeous.

Every need was met before I even had to think about it. The staff is thoughtful and knows each guest by name.

The staff were really attentive, helpful and went above and beyond. From willingness to change the food menu, having a super late spa experience so we could fit it in to seeing someone struggling with snorkelling on an excursion and providing assistance so they could see all a turtle. The private island experience was amazinG, I couldn’t recommend it more! ##### Vishali Stayed 4 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lucas 19 Dec 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Best service. The snorkeling is fantastic. Don't go here if you want to party. Do go here if you love nature, want to relax and see marine life and local lizards and monkeys. Tour A and B are a must, highly recommended do at least one of them. It was a very peaceful week. The food was unreal. ##### Lucas Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### alex 30 Nov 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Staff are top-notch, friendly, and attentive! What an amazing experience at one of the most gorgeous places on this planet! Highly recommend the sunrise breakfast cruise if weather permits. Kudos to the Pangulasian staff, from housekeeping, to front desk/buggy patrol, to security, to chefs and dining staff, to boatmen and activities staff, and also cocktail and bar staff… they can be proud to be on top of world! It’s a magical property! Will certainly be back. ##### alex Stayed 5 nights in Nov 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Omar 14 Feb 2024 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities Beautiful location with good room stock however terrible execution on the hotel management side. This isn’t a cheap hotel so the expectation here on guest experience is understandably high, with that said by fixing a few things this hotel could be great. Firstly, the food was of a really low standard, with cheap buffet style offer and cheap buffet taste, this really needs to be fixed. Secondly the hotel will really benefit from a proper guest experience manager. To put this into context, we had thought we had organised a private 4 hour boat trip with 48 hours prior notice and had humbly asked the activities attendant to prepare an itinerary for the tour. Unfortunately in the evening prior to the tour (9pm), the activities manager interrupted us at dinner to tell us the boat was not available for a 4 hour tour and also wanted us to give him our proposed itinerary for the tour (ie he was too lazy to put one together himself / forgot). On the plus side, the hotel offers a few tour options included in the price and Ryan our tour guide was top tier. Staying at the hotel also has some benefits with priority luggage and lounge at the airport, but needless to say, the chance of us staying at Pangulasian island again is very very slim. ##### Omar Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Elizabeth 14 Mar 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Beautiful resort in perfect location for seeing el Nido. Comfortable beach bungalow with amazing views. Comfortable beds and soft bedding. Always lots of water and a few nice freebies in your room. Incredibly clean and wel Maintained throughout the resort with excellent turn down. Food is excellent with a La carte or buffet options at all meals. We tended to go for a la carte as if honest the buffet food was often like warm if not cold which could be improved. They alternated dinner to the pool area which was a lovely environment however this meant from 2pm onwards staff are prepping for dinner so access to pool loungers becomes limited and you feel very on show / getting in the way which was the only downside we get Of the resort. The included trips were safe, well organised and planned to get you there ahead of the max crowds which was special. The trip to big lagoon and especially Italy Miniloc reef is second to none - and a visit you can only do if staying at an El Nido resort. Pre arrival Communication from head office was poor but don't be concerned about your transfer as the resort really are on top of it. Plan to get a little wet from sea spray and wear sunscreen as the boat transfers are in small speedboats as the resort has no major jetty. Friendly staff who seemed very genuine and also a very present manager is always nice to see. If you want peace and tranquility in a very special place would not hesitate to recommend. ##### Elizabeth Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Mövenpick Hotel Mactan Island Cebu](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lapu-Lapu-Hotels-Movenpick-Hotel-Mactan-Island-Cebu.h1192069.Hotel-Information) > > [Caravan Parks Flookburgh](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Flookburgh-Caravan-Parks.d6361587-aaCaravanParks.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [All-Inclusive Hotels in Cape Verde](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-Cape-Verde-All-Inclusive-Hotel.0-0-d32-tAllInclusiveHotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Mercure Paris Centre Tour Eiffel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paris-Hotels-Mercure-Paris-Centre-Tour-Eiffel.h564660.Hotel-Information) > > [Flory's Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Liloan-Hotels-Florys-Inn.h15435100.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Heidelberg](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Heidelberg-Hotels.d6034797.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Campuestohan Highland Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Talisay-Hotels-Campuestohan-Highland-Resort.h35238602.Hotel-Information) > > [TUI BLUE Tamala](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Serrekunda-Hotels-Sunprime-Tamala-Beach.h48413414.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Houston](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Houston-Hotels.d178265.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Studio at Garden City, Costa Adeje - Heated Pool and pool bar Near sandy beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Adeje-Hotels-Garden-City.h59787671.Hotel-Information) > > [Royalton Hideaway Riviera Cancun, An Autograph Collection All-Inclusive Resort- Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cancun-Hotels-Hideaway-At-Royalton-Riviera-Cancun-Resort-Spa-Adults-Only-All-Inclusive.h8825616.Hotel-Information) > > [Lakawon Island Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cadiz-City-Hotels-Lakawon-Island-Resort.h48718784.Hotel-Information) > > [Shangri-La Mactan, Cebu](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lapu-Lapu-Hotels-Shangri-La-Mactan.h190534.Hotel-Information) > > [The Funny Lion El Nido](https://www.expedia.co.uk/El-Nido-Hotels-The-Funny-Lion-El-Nido.h88935484.Hotel-Information) > > [Aureo La Union](https://www.expedia.co.uk/San-Fernando-Hotels-Aureo-La-Union.h16099636.Hotel-Information) > > [Paradisus by Meliá Fuerteventura – All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pajara-Hotels-Paradisus-By-Melia-Fuerteventura.h525756.Hotel-Information) > > [Derici Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kusadasi-Hotels-Derici-Hotel.h19531556.Hotel-Information) > > [5 Star Hotels in Troutbeck](https://www.expedia.co.uk/5Star-Troutbeck-Hotels.s50-0-d6084844.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels near Puerto Rico Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Puerto-Rico-Beach-Hotels.0-l553248621574431205-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Savoy Hotel Mactan Cebu near Newtown Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lapu-Lapu-Hotels-Savoy-Hotel-Mactan-Newtown.h41903828.Hotel-Information) > > [Siargao Island Villas](https://www.expedia.co.uk/General-Luna-Hotels-Siargao-Island-Villas.h19384669.Hotel-Information) > > [ACCESS Resort & Villas](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Phuket-Hotels-ACCESS-Resort-Villas.h1548215.Hotel-Information) > > [Lagen Island Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/El-Nido-Hotels-Lagen-Island-Resort.h1231565.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Bulawayo (BUQ) to Harare (HRE)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/buq/hre/bulawayo-to-harare) > > [Flights from Newcastle-upon-Tyne (NCL) to Sant Josep de sa Talaia (IBZ)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/ncl/ibz/newcastle-to-ibiza) > > [Flights from Incheon (ICN) to Hounslow (LHR)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/icn/lhr/seoul-to-london) ### Activities > [Things to do in Plakias](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Plakias.d6059099.Travel-Guide-Activities) ---
