OYO Rooms - accommodation in El Nido

Almost all the rooms in the property have a beautiful ocean view as seen in pictures and sits on the beach. However, the beach is not accessible for swimming. The tourists boats are docked there instead which means that you only have to do a 10-minute walk on the beach towards the tourists loading area for the island hopping tours. The included breakfast has a nice selection of warm and cold foods including fruits and dessert. The staff exhibits outstanding customer service. Because the hotel is on the outskirts of downtown, restaurants, souvenir shops and grocery stores are only minutes away. I booked 2 rooms for our group. One of the rooms is a new addition with tile floors, floor to ceiling glass wall facing the ocean and a bathroom with an enclosed shower area. However, unlike the rooms in the older wing, the new rooms do not have a veranda. The other room we were given is in the old wing and is dated and needs renovation. The floors are hardwood onto which the dirt tend to stick even with mopping which makes the floor feel sticky. The shower in the bathroom is not enclosed causing the water to be all over the room, while the drain gets flooded. There are only a small sink in there with no space to put stuff on and a tower rack. They provide a pair of plastic slippers with holes on the foot bed (as part of its design) which makes them useless when trying to avoid the water overflow from the drain.

Staff was delightful. Kind and attentive. Pool also lovely. Location is far from town centre with infrequent shuttle frequency. Room unfortunately the size of a coffin and problematic at best. Woke up to a bathroom flood second morning and A/C worked properly about half of our stay as well as leaked profusely. Breakfast was nicely varied.

One of our favorite hotels ever! After traveling for about two months, this was such a beautiful hotel, the location, the views…
