4-Star Hotels in EL Nido

The first words of the staff is “welcome to paradise” and we can only say it was truly experiencing paradise. From the first second at lounge arrival to the last second of departure there was an amazing, friendly and personalized customer care! The hotel environment , the room, the food, the complementary boat trips all was excellent and gave us an incredible experience to never forget and … to return back to☺️

I stayed at S Resort in El Nido (Palawan) and overall I was satisfied. The room was moderately clean, with no issues regarding the basic level of hygiene. The bed sheets were changed, which is a nice touch and not always guaranteed in similar hotels. The air conditioner worked properly and consistently, which is very important in the hot climate. The main advantage is the location. The hotel is in the center of El Nido, so everything is within walking distance — restaurants, shops, and tour departure points. Very convenient and easy to get around. Overall, it’s a good option if you value location and basic comfort without high expectations. It works well for an active stay in El Nido.

Clean property, within the CBD and close to beach and other close by restaurants.

We stayed for a night at this hidden villa, and it felt like a true home away from home. The staff were incredibly kind and respectful, providing excellent service that made our stay comfortable and enjoyable. The food was a highlight—absolutely delicious, with a healthy breakfast offered in the morning. You can even request a floating breakfast, which added a special touch to the experience. While the villa is tucked away down a short gravel road, the peaceful and private setting made it worth the effort. The villa is kid-friendly, but families should be cautious around the tiled swimming pool area. There’s no TV, so if you’re traveling with children, make sure their devices are charged. Fortunately, the Wi-Fi is strong and reliable. Overall, it was a lovely, relaxing stay with amazing food and warm hospitality. We highly recommend this villa for a cozy and memorable getaway.

The hotel is well located and quiet. The room offers enough space, about 25m2. A terrible ”view” from the window onto a wall of the washroom/staff room is just awful. The bathroom is unfortunately extremely small and has no storage space for a toiletry bag or washing utensils. There is a clean and beautiful pool on the roof. From there you have a great view. The breakfast is by no means appropriate for the high price of the rooms. There is practically no fruit selection, the ”juices” are chemical crap and hardly edible. No yogurt, no cheese, no freshly ground coffee (which you would expect at these prices), no bacon, no real bread, just the usual toast nonsense.

Very nice location with amazing sunset. The glamping hotel is new and they are still finishing building it so there were some issues both with the rooms (room lock without proper card but a very hard and strange key, unstable bathroom’s faucet and hot water in the shower with a very unusual control system) and the staff, who asked multiple times if we had payed the room already with Trip and asked for proof of payment. Other than that, it is a pleasant choice for the nice location and the decoration style. The offer a free shuttle service to the town but you need to wait some time usually. In alternative, when u come back to the hotel you will need your walk up to a bit steep road because the tuck tuck will not be able to come all the way up, but it’s not too bad) They also borrow a free towel that u can bring with you to other beaches. They did not clean the room daily and they said the service needed to be requested because they wouldn’t enter the room without permission. Also the reception is not open 24h which is a bit unconvenient and they would ask to text on whatshapp. For the price paid and considered how expensive it was for philippines, I would have expected less issues but I would still recommend it for a nice staying in el nido.

Amazing experience with super flexible hospitality service! It was a great gesture from the team to pack us some water and sandwiches during our 6AM check-out and 5-hour van transfer to PPS airport! Thank you so much for your kindness. Regarding the room itself — super clean and well maintained. Aesthetics are on point. The bed is the comfiest I’ve slept on in a while!

Ora Beach needs an update, the hotel is large and the rooms large. But all the facilities, gym, aircons, TV are old and outdated. It's on a stretch of beach in a little Cove with a beautiful view , the food is... ok. But it's close to some great restaurants elsewhere. The shower was poor but the toilet worked.

There was number 7 courtyard. The downside is the smelly, stinking water that leaves a residue. We must skip it. Breakfast a la carte is quite decent. Don't expect it to be particularly clean, but milking the Philippines is fine. There is a refrigerator and minibar. There was water in the room on the first day, cleaning upon request. I asked for 2 bottles of water, so it was later included in the bill) 0.5 for 75 pesos. And at the check-out, there was an invoice attached, dated the first day of arrival, in the first line there were two mango juice, the rest was erased with an eraser, and the total price was added with a pen - 250 pesos 👏👏👏 But there was nothing except water. Bravo!
