Beach Hotels in Mimaropa, Philippines

Cleanliness: 9/10 The room was clean, nice, and tidy. The pillows, bedsheets, and blankets smelled freshly laundered, and the floor and furniture were spotless. Cleanliness is highly maintained not just inside the room, but also in the hallways and other public areas. They do housekeeping every day, change the towels regularly, and always make sure your hygiene kit is fully stocked. The only issue I had was on my first day—the room wasn’t prepared according to my request, possibly due to an oversight. I had to be transferred to another room, and while it didn’t smell very pleasant at first, it was still clean overall. Location: 10/10 If you're looking for a peaceful place with a great view but still not too far from the city center, this is perfect! It’s not far from the airport and is surrounded by restaurants, drugstores are near, small stores for cheap things to buy, nearby malls, and groceries—but then the area isn’t crowded. It strikes a great balance between convenience and tranquility. Btw, if you are just travelling for leisure (DIY),renting a motor to go around is much cheaper than getting a tricycle Service: 10/10 I stayed here for 3 nights and 4 days, traveling alone. The staff made me feel really comfortable and were always ready to help with anything I needed—from check-in to check-out. Everyone was so friendly and accommodating. Filipino hospitality was truly evident here (Im a Filipino). Special shoutout to the restaurant staff who served breakfast and other meals—they were always smiling, friendly, and attentive. Amenities: 10/10 Everything was in excellent condition and worked perfectly. I especially appreciated the free airport shuttle—it was very helpful and convenient. Since I was also attending to some paperwork during my stay, I was happy to be able to relax and enjoy the amenities in between. Definitely worth the price. I’ll surely come back!

I had the most amazing time during my stay at The Funny Lion. First and most important thing to mention is how amazing the staff were. From the coffee bar to the restaurant, every person treated me with such warmth and grace, and some of them even remembered my name. Secondly, the food was great. The morning breakfast had a great array of options with some Filipino elements which I looked forward to every morning. Enjoying some garlic rice and eggs next to the sunlit pool was a perfect start to the morning. Location was great too, close to the airport and a short ride away from nice cafes (nothing to too far in PP to be honest). You could also take a boat or kayak out to the sand bar which is such a nice touch to complete the full experience offered by the resort. Rooms were big, clean and amenities were amazing. All in all, I only have praises for TFL, I will definitely stay here again should I ever return to Palawan.

Even though we found this hotel on social media, the real thing did not disappoint. The staff was very attentive and even though we had a small problem with the airport pick up they’re more than made up for it with their service. Chilling by the pool, enjoying the food outside and inside as well as the spa treatments were all top-notch. Highly recommend and I would definitely go back. 

Highly recommend hotel, loved every moment of it. Every aspect of the hotel was truly league of its own, friendly staff, clean, and the location was just perfect.

Awesome hotel! It basically has its own private beach that when the tide is right has really good waves and it has a massive pool so everyone is happy. It is away from the chaos of El Ndo, but close enough to be convenient when you want to visit. It’s a short walk to Lio, which is a chill town with great restaurants - especially Punta Playa. The breakfast, facilities and staff are all great!

An idyllic location just a stones throw away from the el Nido beach. Beautiful and large pool with views of the beach. This hotel is ideal for solo travellers as it’s a very short walk to the town which has an abundance of nice bars and restaurants. It is also a short walk to the boat tours. The staff were friendly and welcoming, helping me to book my island hopping tour.

**Review of Microtel Hotel** We recently stayed at Microtel Hotel, booking two rooms, and unfortunately, our experience was disappointing. The rooms were outdated, with dim lighting that made it hard to see. The shower controls were rusted, and even the tissue holders showed significant wear. We were surprised to find that there’s no in-house restaurant, and the breakfast offered was not worth the price. Despite having a small number of guests, the breakfast options were limited to eggs, sausage, tocino, bread, rice, fruit slices, coffee, and juice. It took a long time for the staff to refill these items, and they weren’t even heated properly. To add to our frustration, my nephew, who is in grade 5, was charged as an adult because they don’t have a child rate. The towels were also outdated, which contributed to the overall feeling of neglect in terms of maintenance. On a positive note, the staff were welcoming and friendly, which was appreciated. The beach in front of the resort was beautiful, but it wasn't enough to make up for the lack of proper amenities and upkeep. Overall, we left feeling that Microtel Hotel needs significant improvements to meet basic hospitality standards.

We stayed at this resort in February with our family, and we highly recommend it. The location is beautiful, with a stunning natural setting that remains quite wild, providing the perfect backdrop for a property that includes a hotel, villas, and glamping accommodations. We stayed in the hotel, but we also recommend the villas, which were occupied by our friends—they are nestled in lush greenery and are very well maintained. There is a small pool available for guests located in the glamping area. The resort also offers relaxing massages and the opportunity to book excursions. The restaurant offers a limited menu, but the dishes are well-prepared, and the pizza, in particular, meets high Italian standards. The only small suggestion we would make is to improve the breakfast selection slightly. The staff is incredibly kind, always helpful, and consistently welcoming with warm smiles. A special thanks to the General Manager, who was always present and attentive to guests’ needs.

Excellent Location. Cheap yet provides us a good service. Free breakfast and nice room. Clean and well air-conditioned.

everything is good in this place! the villa is cool, comfortable! the staff is incredibly friendly, thank you very much! but I will dwell on the location in more detail. firstly, it is located 30 minutes away from the El Nido pier itself (a strategic point, because we are all planning to travel around the national park by boat), and God bless it, but a kilometer before the hotel the road simply ends. secondly, the beach is beautiful and uncrowded (a bonus for the remoteness), but Nik-Nik (sand mite) lives there, fortunately we were warned about this right away at the hotel, in general, you can’t go anywhere without a repellent. I will especially note that sea turtle eggs are kept on the hotel grounds and, when the time comes, the turtles are released into the sea, but we were unlucky enough to witness this action (( then no little things would have prevented us from giving 6 stars!
