Amazing. Incredibly attentive staff, beautiful and LARGE room, and most important all, stunning beauty. As many others have noted, it's a dry resort and they don't sell alcohol on premises, so if you want to drink just get some drinks to bring in El Nido.

Matinloc island is stunning and the staff are really friendly at the hotel. However, the property does need some renovations. There were broken boards around the pool and the building my room was in seemed to be “abandoned” on the floors above. It was strange that just the bottom floor rooms were complete and upstairs was neglected. My toilet dripped and would wake me up. I asked if this could be looked at but it wasn’t. My AC also stopped working for the last night. Also the food was a let down. With only one restaurant, it was disappointing that the food was really not a highlight. Breakfast was a buffet but was cold and had flies over the open food. Lunch and dinner had similar menus but overall weren’t enjoyable. I understand being on a private island has restrictions but it was disappointing. The no alcohol didn’t bother me at all and many other guests brought their own. Overall a stunning location with friendly staff but I wouldn’t necessarily recommend based on the reasons above.

First the staff was amazing, would like to single out a couple by name, Jayson behind the front desk was so professional and understanding, Our flight was delayed and we missed the last boat, he assured my wife we will be taken cared of and still picked up and had a wonderful place to stay for the night at El Nido Beach Hotel (their sister resort). Next is Wilbur he was our tour guide for the two days we did Island tours, his patience with my son and knowledge of the area is 2nd to none, he was a pleasure to go on the tours with and 3rd is Jed he is the kindest person there is , always there to help and ask if u need anything, The Resort itself is one of a kind , had the Time of my Life. The Beach Villa we stayed at was spectacular and huge with the most beautiful view of the beach! We will definitely be back again and hope this place will be visited by tourists from all over the world… it is totally worth it! Thank you Matinloc resort staff for the best experience we will cherish for the rest of our lives…
