Budget Hostels from RM181

"The location was spectacular. The staff were very friendly and helpful, we were pleasantly surprised upon our arrival to get upgraded to a Sea/Mountain view villa, and the accommodations were very nice! This definitely enhanced our 7-day stay. Housekeeping were on top of things, and kept our room clean and tidy. Had one small issue with the hot water disappearing one day, but as soon as we notified staff they were on it and fixed it immediately. The only area in which our experience would have been enhanced is an expansion of the menu. All of the Filipino dishes were very good, but the menu was somewhat limited, particularly for breakfast. If your stay is only a couple of days this likely won’t be an issue, but for a week a bit more variety would be nice. However, this was not enough to take my rating down to a 4. There are too many other great things that make the Matinloc Island Resort well worth visiting. We would definitely return for a second visit. Will try to post a few pics if I can once posted to Expedia. Words alone don’t do the place justice."

"This place was magical. Rooms were gorgeous - the view!!! The overall resort was so well maintained, staff were constantly cleaning. The only downside (and no joke from other reviews) was the stairs. BUT you can only get the views from climbing up 😀. It is a walk through their little shops, through the beach and tons of stairs which made it a little bit of a trek for mt elder parents but honestly so worth it! Very much recommend thia place"

"Our stay at Seda Lio was fantastic. The staff were consistently friendly and courteous, contributing to a very welcoming atmosphere. The breakfast buffet offered a wide variety of options and was quite enjoyable. The beach and other amenities were excellent and well maintained. The only minor issue we encountered was slower service at the restaurant. On one occasion, we waited over 30 minutes for halo-halo and were not informed of the extended wait time until we were about to leave. Aside from this, our overall experience was very positive. Despite the pool being under renovation during our stay, we would definitely return. Special thanks to Karla (receptionist from breakfast buffet) and the front desk staff member whose name begins with “F” (I think Floren), who was exceptionally helpful and truly went above and beyond to assist us."

"Exellent"

"The staff is very helpful. Breakfast and the other meals (and drinks) were quite tasty. Walking distance to El Nido town without being in the busy area. The hotel is located on a busy street but the hotel owner has done a wonderful job of putting in a pool and a nice enclosed garden area that blocks out the noise. We would start here again if we ever get the chance to return to El Nido. "

"The room was big, good shower with hot water, mini fridge in room and bottled water, our room view was amazing. A short tuk tuk ride to food places, close to the boat tours. Breakfast was just ok. The front desk tried quoting me triple the price I was told to get to the airport. I would stay here again. "

"Manager was amazing. Catered to my every need. Staff was also top notch. Spent 5 days there then extended for 7. Oceanfront, In town. Amazing stay"

"Nice, clean hotel. Very attentive staff. The beach behind the hotel is wonderful and the views from the pool are even better than pictured. We loved our stay. The hotel is about a 5-10 ride to the downtown but so worth the ride. "

"Thoroughly enjoyed our stay here at Lagun, the staff were so polite and helpful and always on hand if we had a request. In my opinion the level of service goes above and beyond what you might expect and it made our stay extra special. The room was clean the restaurant was likewise very clean and the food was delicious.Thank you so much for having us and making our engagement week extra special! As a minor foot note I think the water they serve in the restaurant is tap water which they tell you not to drink, they informed us that it was filtered and safe to drink but it gave me stomach aches and diarrhoea so just stick to bottled water to be safe."
