The resort offers a lovely and clean setting with beautiful beach views, providing a perfect escape for relaxation. While I enjoyed the tranquil environment, the dining experience fell short, particularly with overpriced meals and service issues. The beach is easily accessible, however, and the opportunities for water activities were enjoyable. Unfortunately, the management of facilities appeared lacking, which detracted from the overall impression.

We had a great time at this resort in January, with stunning views and a peaceful ambiance perfect for a romantic getaway.

There's also a concern about Wi-Fi connectivity and food service timings, which could be improved.

I had a mixed experience at this resort. The cottages were clean and situated conveniently close to the beach, perfect for relaxing moments away from El Nido. However, I faced several issues with the dining options, particularly the New Year's Eve dinner which felt overpriced and poorly executed. The service was also disappointing, with communication problems during our booking. It’s a great spot for a quiet getaway, but don't expect impeccable dining or management.
