Homestays em Mimaropa, Philippines

Pension can easily be located since it is just along the road; a 5-minute drive to Cathedral and 7-10 minutes from Pasalubong Center to Orange P and it’s only 100php for 1 tricycle. They had a hard time finding my reservation since Traveloka is a subsidiary of Expedia. We had the Standard room with BF and we were informed that their standard is a bunk bed, but they offered the queen bed with shared bathroom (just beside our room). It was clean and sweet-scented room. What I love about was their big mirror at the lobby. Wi-Fi is slow as expected. Plated breakfast as shown in the picture. They have soap and tissue but no shampoo, so better bring one. Staff were friendly. This pension is highly recommended for those who want to stay on a budget yet classy place and near to airport, pasalubong center, cathedral and bajao.

The rooms are advertised as 50 sq meters but they are not even close. Roughly half the size of that (see photos). The hotel is also old and noisy (Doors and windows are thin, we were awoken constantly from inside and outside the hotel). Our room had ants everywhere. We told the front desk, and they didn't care. Also the curtains fell off the wall and they put them back up but we couldn't open them. They said they'd come repair, but never did. Breakfast has a lovely view, but the food was a poor assortment of bad tasting items. Sadly the room has a lovely view of the mountains, but also has a view of trash (see photos). Finally, they have the most annoying policies, asking for deposits for a 2nd keycard to get into your room or for towels. That's right, they will give you the first key card without requiring a deposit. But if you are 2 people and want another, they are worried about you losing it and want a deposit. What happens if I lose the first one? No fee? Trying to explain anything to the front desk people is a waste of time. All nods and smiles but no comprehension. I even asked a supervisor to contact me so I could discuss their policies but of course no one reached out during all the 3 days I was there. On a positive note the place is in the perfect location and the staff is at least friendly. They offer offer free water on each floor. And they provided a free shuttle to and from the airport which was a nice touch. It is for these three things I upped them from one to two stars. You'd be better off staying across the street at their brand new sister property (same owner).

Great place, 3-5 minutes to the port and restaurants. The territory of the house is located so that it is very quiet. No noise from the road. Only birds. The room is spacious. There is tea, coffee, a refrigerator in the kitchen. The hostess is caring, pleasant, makes inexpensive breakfasts. For such money in Port Elnido it is difficult to find mainly small closets. Here the room is exactly 25 square meters, there is a bar counter in the room, no insects. Mosquito nets on the door and windows. Of the minuses, weak water pressure is sometimes turned off. But it is quickly restored. I think this is almost everywhere

Our stay was amazing ! Rooms literally 1 minute from the beach . Rooms were very clean and the staff very kind and helpful to us . We booked a boat tour through the hotel . We would really suggest everyone to do the tour with June as a captain and Nico as the tour guide … we had a blast!

The room looks very old, the mattresses are foam, the plugs generate little confidence, the truth is that for the little you pay you could say that it is normal, don't expect much. The bathroom is another world, the toilet bowl does not have a base to sit on, so it is very unhygienic when using it, either that or urinate and do your business without touching the bowl. The shower does not have much pressure, so if you are going to take a shower it is better to use the faucet under the shower and fill a bucket and bathe with the bucket of water. The door to the women's bathroom is broken from below, so it can cause a bit of insecurity, although I honestly don't think people will care much.

We liked it very much. We lived in a tent, but there are also tents. Prices are quite affordable. Hello from Russia and Kazakhstan 👋🏻👍🏻

Loved staying here, would immediately book again. It is RIGHT on a beautiful beach, close to good restaurants on marimegmeg beach and to las cabanas which is the best sunset place in all of El Nido. Their pictures don’t do the view justice so I’ll add mine. Only thing to note is that the shower is not the best with very low pressure and sometimes switching between hot and cold water, but the service was good so we immediately got help with our shower. Also noting that the waves at night are loud (with earplugs we had no issues). It is also right below the zip line if that is of interest!

El Nido doesn’t provide much in regards to accommodation, everything seems pretty basic, but you should be prepared for that before you come here. Yes you will struggle with wifi, yes you may struggle with water pressure, yes you might see some insects on your room but that isn’t just one place that is ALL places in El Nido. Overall our stay here was good, it was clean, comfortable, fan and air con too. Room cleaned daily and towels refreshed. My only issue was that it was a little bit noisy being on the main road and there’s very little to do in Corong Corong but other than that I would go back

1. The hotel is located on the busiest street. But my room was overlooking the courtyard, the pool, so it was quiet. 2. The air conditioner was very noisy, it was hard to sleep. 3. The room was on the fourth floor, there is no elevator in the hotel, in the heat of 35 ° C it is a special pleasure to go up 4. I ordered a honeymoon suite, it does not match what is in the photos. The room is much smaller, about 14m2, tiny balcony. 5. From the hotel you can order all excursions to the islands at the same prices as in the city. 6. The hotel will help you rent a scooter at the same prices as in the city.

The hotel is located not on the shore itself, but on a hill. There are wonderful views of the sea in one direction and the mountains in the other. Walk to the sea no more than 10 minutes. We lived in a separate house. The hotel involves living in nature: the area is very quiet, only the sounds of birds, frogs, etc. can be heard. The windows are not glazed, but there is a mosquito net over the bed. The floor air conditioner worked, but could barely cope (in April during the hot season). There is not always water in the shower, and ants come. We regard this as the price we pay for living in nature. The staff was friendly and helped us contact the dispatcher and call a public minibus to the hotel in order to get to Puerto Princesa without transfers.

The staff are very accommodating and friendly. They always attend to our needs and requests and we had a great stay :) Free breakfast included was very nice and good air conditioning!! My family and I had a wonderful experience and casa Cecilia was a big part of that. Only a 3 minute walk to the beach and loads of places to buy souvenirs and food stalls as well.

It’s honestly such a cute little hostel! The owners are former travelers themselves and told us that they want to recreate a place they wish were accessible back then. So something homey and budget friendly which it also is. So it’ll obviously not be a 5 star hotel but the owners and the employees are just WONDERFUL people. They’re currently renovating and you can really see the passion and love they have for this place. They kept asking us for feedback about what they can improve etc, really showing that they consider the customers point of view! They also went above and beyond to help us book different kind of tours for our stay and provided us with useful information. The front desk worker once helped us book a tour until 11pm without complain! This hostel was honestly such a highlight of our stay and even made us extend for a couple more day!!

I am very grateful to their staff here, they are very kind and diligent and they are very attentive to us and their other guests. even early in the morning if you need something, they will give it to you right away, and especially on the birthday of one of our friends, they even made an effort to design a happy birthday on the wall, they even printed a picture. I will come back to this hotel when I come back to El Nido Palawan. thank you very much especially to Sir Jhay and Mam Chubby hehe I forgot his name. thank you so much!!! ❤️ Highly recommended!!!!!! 💯💯💯💯✨

The location is good, it's close enough to the airport that it's walkable or it'll be around 50 pesos in a tricycle (expect to pay a bit more with the white tax). There is a mall nearby Robinson's with a good supermarket. Also some good coffeeshops if you need to work. Be sure to bring cash as even places like McDonald's often have issues with card machines There is a nice beach on the East Coast (photos here) as well as the Church of Immaculate Conception which is nice to see while in town.

Very accomodating and friendly

It was a nice experience in that hotel

Considering the price, it’s a good stay in pp mainly because of the location! Room was okay staff was very freindly,

Kung nagtitipid ka at gusto ng maayos at malinis na lugar dito ka na sa Istroberi inn. accessible pa sa lahat dito sa Puerto Prinsesa.

Stayed with a friend for 2 nights. The location is moderately good - the central embankment is about 15 minutes on foot, no more. The nearest large supermarket is no more than 10 minutes away. There are low-rise buildings around. Our house itself is 3-storey, for 1-2 guests, I don’t know about the 3rd floor. New house. Freshly renovated. The room has tiles on the floor, air conditioner (windowed, but new and not particularly noisy), LCD TV, refrigerator!!, kitchen surface, sink, dishes, kettle. In the shower - everything is as it should be, a toilet and hot water. Another table/chair. There are a couple of benches in the yard to hang out if it's not hot. It is possible to buy cold beer/water. The bed is great. Lots of pillows. It’s quiet outside the window, there are roosters, but they didn’t crow at night. This is the fifth hotel on this trip to the Philippines in the same price category and it is the best so far. I recommend it, I'm ready to stay there again.

We are checking out today after 4 nights here at Balai Princesa and every minute of our stay has been wonderful. Our whole family felt like this has been our home away from home. From the moment we had been greeted at the airport and brought here, every single member of their staff had made sure we are comfortable and made everything convenient for us. We sometimes feel like we’re long lost friends and family. I usually mention a few special members of the staff who have shown exceptional customer service, but for Balai Princesa literally every member of the staff has been exceptional: everyone from reception, F&B, housekeeping, and the spa. If I mention all their names, I would probably not have enough space left on this post. And my usual detailed breakdown is below: Room: spacious and very clean. The hotel had only opened in Jan2019 so it still feels new. The aircon is can be adjusted to your preferred temperature and you can choose to always come home to a cold room to relieve you of the heat and humidity outside. There is no tv in the room, but if you have a mobile device, then wifi is strong enough for you to watch Netflix before you go to sleep :) Bed: moderately firm mattress and pillows, just the way we like it. We had a goodnight sleep every time. Food: top-notch. Every single item on the menu that we tried had been delicious. Facilities: There are two jacuzzi tubs at the back for you to relax and while away time on a quiet early evening before heading to dinner. Then before heading off to bed, try the signature massage their spa and all those tight and sore muscles from walking and swimming will be relieved. Service: We could be singing high praises even long after we’ve left Balai Princesa. We’re a family of seasoned travelers and we all agree that their customer service is one of the best that we have ever experienced. They are really at the top of the charts. Over-all: Every traveler has their own style. If you are a traveler who prefers to stay downtown and within walking distance of shopping malls and the main street, then maybe this isn’t the place for you. For those who are looking for quiet and comfort and relaxation, stay here in Balai Princesa. You are guaranteed to feel refreshed and rejuvenated after your stay...and if ever you’re returning to Puerto Princesa, you’re surely going to want to come home to Balai Princesa again.
