We were very disappointed with the poor standard of service and facilities. Our reception was surly and unwelcoming. There are no tea or coffee facilities in the rooms and towels were inadequate. Breakfast in the morning were a bit of a lottery and we had repeatedly to ask for more water etc. Finally despite advising the Hotel on arrival that... More

As mentioned before in other reviews this is really a hotel with a pool rather than a resort. It's in an excellent location on the beachfront and the pool is good - it's the only one in el nido and therefore the prices. The rooms are large with good aircon but the peeling wallpaper is indicative of this place's lack... More

I have not yet stayed at the hotel but booked a room for March for 4 nights. They (Michael Diaz) told us to wire money to China Bank to the hold the room. We have not been able to get a hold of anyone since and it's been over a week. I'm starting to get freaked out this is scam.... More

El Nido Garden Beach Resort is a haven compared to the other offering of hotels in El Nido. Their cottages are very nice, with actually good and working warm water showers and comfortable beds. You have even a big tv in your room and you can borrow a dvd player from the reception and choose what you want to look... More

I don't understand how this is rated as a B&B and Marina Gardens is listed as a hotel. This is far superior (we looked at rooms in both before we booked) and has facilities such as a pool and proper massage area. The rooms are clean, well kept and comfortable. The only downside is that they do not have a... More

I found it really hard researching El Nido accommodation due to all the differing opinions and probably differing demographics going there. I was very glad we stayed here at El Nido Garden Beach Resort. I have noticed that many members complain about the electricity not being available (at our stay, electricity was only on between 5pm and 3am, which is... More

We wanted to stay in a high range hotel in El Nido, supposed to be the best part of our trip in the Philippines, so we went to the El Nido Garden Beach resort, because that's basically the only hotel of the kind in El Nido (apart from the islands resorts, but we didn't want to spend that much).

We had a terrible sleepless nights in Rosanna's Cottages and moved here as this is the only upper scale hotel in El Nido. This is a 3rd world country so do not expect much. It is super expensive (80 eur/night) but at least it is clean, breakfast is included and you can sleep without being woken up by chicken, dogs... More
