H Hotel El Nido - Vegan Friendly Hotel

"Everything was perfect. One of the greatest hospitality we’ve had recently"

Karuna El Nido Villas

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel is exceptional in all aspects of our stay. We stayed in Studio 1, opposite the check in office. The rooms were clean and shower area large. The restaurant’s food was delicious, compliments to the chef for always producing tasty, delicious meals. The staff in the restaurant area are very attentive and helpful. The pool was delightful and an area we frequented often. The happy hour at the restaurant was great with delicious and perfectly made cocktails. I had a massage at the facility, they were professional and it was one of the best massages I had experience in some time. I would highly recommend this hotel and if we ever went back to El Nido this is where we would stay. A special mention to Wilma in the hotel restaurant who went above and beyond in everything she did. She treated everyone with kindness and respect even if patrons were rude. Additionally, I also noticed the way everyone helped each other even if it was not part of their role. Pool staff, helping kitchen staff clear tables, an exceptional example of team work."
