I have been here 4 times, and it is always the BEST experience every time. If you have a family and want to have better access to water activities, stay at the Miniloc Resort. This place is simply AMAZING! I never get tired of saying this, as I have recommended this place numerous times, both to locals and foreigners. They... More

My wife and I just had one of the best if not the best moment of our married life in Miniloc Island Resort. The natural setting is unparalleled by anywhere else I have been to and it would be virtually tough to beat the location of this resort. El Nido truly took our breaths away. It has got to be... More

My bestfriend and i went there to relax and unwind, we ended up playing princesses! Special thanks to our guide, Vladimir for treating us like spoiled brats. Oh and yeah, the scenic view was just fantastic! our sweet cottage was always clean. Food was awesome, however it would have been nicer if it was left a bit more hot and... More

So our second week in the area was like night and day after leaving Lagen (see Lagen review). First off I applaud this resort for the quality of its management and staff. Not only are they friendly and efficient but they actually work hard at a personal level to make your stay unique, and this it was. First off the... More

My husband and I stayed in one of the water huts which were rustic and charming. On our last day, our flight back to Manila got canceled due to a technical malfunction. The airline paid for us to stay an extra night (NICE!). We got to stay in a deluxe sea view room which has a very modern feel and... More

Simple, if you can afford going here, do it! Everything was absolutely perfect. When looking at the price, keep in mind that almost all activities are accounted for, so you won't spend much more money there. We only spent money on alcohol, a massage and paid extra for them to setup a "private beach dinner" The staff was so very... More

We liked Miniloc a lot. Many pluses, few complaints: 1. Getting there was an adventure. After a long flight to Manila, the small plane to Palawan was fun, the bus through town interesting, and the 45-minute boat ride to the island a blast. We didn't like Inter Island's charging so much for excess luggage to cover the dive gear. Add... More

We stayed at Miniloc Island for the last 3 nights of our honeymoon. We don't normally stay at expensive resorts, so were really hoping that the resort didn't disappoint. Well, it didn't. From the moment we arrived at the beautiful island, the staff were attentive and polite. Our room was very clean, and the food was good (lots of choice).... More

The staff at El Nido are very friendly and hospitable. This is the best holiday my wife and I had. Lovely weather, private secluded beach, kayaking, island tours, lovely folk dance presentation and excellent views. We will come back and return to this paradise. Greetings from London. More

The location of this resort is the biggest plus with the small and big lagoon a kayak away. The rooms were nice and they had a variety of types to choose from. Also, the service was exceptional. Everyone was so friendly and accomodating. The #1 reason I am giving this resort 3 stars is due to the food. They would... More
