Yet I tried anyways and Im so happy I did. Although it is dated its a gem of a place. The rooms were very clean, the pool was great and not to mention the views are phenomenal. As far as transport: they def provide transport to the main square. For a small fee they will drop you at your request a bit further. The staff was lovely and very accommodating. Its close to some amazing food spots. Mine was Fuego for the burger and chicken eaters For the athletic there is a gym in the town square. This was a birthday stay and it was an amazing one. ##### Erika Liv Stayed 4 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Patryk Dec 23, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Exactly what you need Very nice, very surprising and awesome staff ##### Patryk Stayed 1 night in Dec 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Keith Feb 28, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities The views were incredible the staff was outstanding especially Ulli who has the smile of an angel. The rooms were priced very reasonable. The room I had was without a view on the lower level and could use a little updating but it was only used for sleeping so no big deal. The owner is very protective of his guest, by this I mean I had a pickup scheduled and somehow or another there was a delay. The owner drove down to the pickup location on his motorbike and made sure I was taken care of. That was service over and above. ##### Keith Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Mirna Aug 21, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great location! The hotel is on the beach side so you’re able to catch amazing sunrise/sunset views. The staff was very nice and super helpful in accommodating our needs and coordinating breakfast each morning as well as the island hopping tours. The breakfast was good..The rooms were good..a little rundown but for the price, it’s worth it! Overall, we were all satisfied with our stay and would recommend. They also provide roundtrip transportation from the airport. ##### Mirna ### 8/10 Good #### My Nov 25, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### Quiet place We spent 3 nights at this hotel. The hotel is old, but room is clean, has good WiFi, and the owner and staff are super friendly. Our balcony faces the sea, and it was lovely to sit there after a long day of excursions, enjoying a cold beer and listening to the waves. The hotel is located in a quiet area, about a 7-10 minute walk from the town. They offer free drive to town with tricykle, but we just used that one time, because we appreciated the short walk to the town through an authentic Filipino residential area. We were lucky with the weather and enjoyed clear starry skies on all our walks. ##### My Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### David Mar 29, 2024 Liked: Property conditions & facilities I had a wonderful first visit and look forward to coming back again.

It is spectacular. The staff is super friendly and very attentive. Lot of times they serve you the things you might need without asking. For example towels for your excursions.. You can conveniently book excursions with them and they provide free transportation or rent a scooter from them. Meals and cocktails available as well. We had a fantastic time. ##### ZSUZSANNA Stayed 6 nights in Feb 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Antonello Feb 19, 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great View and poor rooms Rooms are quite cheap, small beds, water in the shower very scarce, no shower gel provided... Very limited choice for the breakfast. On the positive side, amazing view on the sea (but the beach cannot be used at all, due to the tide) 15 minutes walking from the main road, free ride until 7pm otherwise must pay 100PHP ##### Antonello Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dominic Dec 22, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Many thanks to Uli & Rose for being excellent hosts, they made us feel like we were ‘part of the family’ The views from the balcony were spectacular, the rooms are large, have air-con and with smart TV. The shower/restroom also very spacious. We spent the evenings at the bar interacting with other guests and the hosts. There was also a good choice of delicious on the menu. We also opted for the breakfast included option. We also took advantage of the chariot/shuttle service, that took us into El Nido town and to the next beach… free of charge and included within the price. I personally recommend the Island Hopping, if you want to see some spectacular views of, and want to visit the beautiful lagoons, just ask Rose or Uli for details. They will also arrange transport too. The Reef Strand Resort is like a sparking hidden treasure, and my partner and I are already looking forward to visiting again in 2025\. A special thank you to Jima, Angel, Jizreal and Jona, and all of the employees that welcomed us, took care of us and looked after us, during our stay. ##### Dominic Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Bryan Mar 9, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities So - I remember booking this reservation mainly because of the property being right on the water and the beautiful pool & hot tub. Man, did it not disappoint!! Especially rm 202, I would soo book that room or ocean front - anytime, because...WOW!! The view as soon as you open the curtains, was breathtaking and I NEVER got tired of the View! The STAFF were soooo Friendly, Informative, Accommodating and just great! They picked us up and even helped me find a parking lot for the Car Rental. (Which is great to have but parking is tough). Great Meals and Breakfast's, and I'm usually not a breakfast person but in Paradise, vacation and the energy of the area, made me want to wake up and start my day early and to have options for Breakfast was Awesome! My gf and I had a great time! Only Suggestion - Making it more able to get to and from the downtown area as the walk to and from can be a bit much after a tiring day of tours and heat and at night. It wasn't bad, about 10 min walk to and from. Yes, most people rent a Motor bike and can go to and from faster, which i would suggest and probably also get next time..but having 2 vehicle rentals was a bit much. But for pickup and drop off with luggage, the staff was VERY accommodating! Overall: I loved it! Beautiful spot, quiet - peaceful but also had just what we needed and beautiful rooms. Definitely book them again! ##### Bryan Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Dennis Mar 18, 2024 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities Truthful review. The only two pleasing things at this hotel was we had a beautiful view ocean view from our balcony and the staff were excellent and so friendly. The hotel itself needs a complete renovation. There was a lot of rust and rotted wood around the exterior of the building. The owner was alway in the lounge area which is ok, but we always struggled to get change. He had to pull money out of his pocket. Very shabby business practices here. For my room, the sliding door was the only door to the room. The lock did not work so they had to replace it but he told me the people that checked out that morning had no issues. Complete lie because when their maintenance guy tried, he couldn’t get it to work either. Had loose tiles on the floor. No water pressure in the shower. When I opened the bathroom door from the inside, the door knob came off. The air conditioner could not keep the room cool enough during the day but night was ok. The reviews were good that is why we got a room here, but I wouldn’t recommend staying here. Also, it is about 15 minutes from a road to get to a tricycle or taxi because of a very narrow way to the hotel. ##### Dennis Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Magdalena Nov 26, 2025 Disliked: Amenities Room needs to be upgraded, the pool and the view is awesome. ##### Magdalena Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Oscar Dec 25, 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Location is horrible ##### Oscar Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Lakawon Island Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Cadiz-City-Hotels-Lakawon-Island-Resort.h48718784.Hotel-Information) > > [Astoria Palawan](https://www.expedia.ca/Puerto-Princesa-Hotels-Astoria-Palawan.h7863024.Hotel-Information) > > [Camp Netanya Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Mabini-Hotels-Camp-Netanya-Resort-Spa.h15967910.Hotel-Information) > > [Dos Palmas Island Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Puerto-Princesa-Hotels-Dos-Palmas-Island-Resort-Spa.h8082271.Hotel-Information) > > [Coron Westown Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Coron-Hotels-Coron-Westown-Resort.h6117776.Hotel-Information) > > [The Farm at San Benito, Autograph Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/Lipa-Hotels-The-Farm-At-San-Benito.h4850057.Hotel-Information) > > [Acuatico Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Juan-Hotels-Acuatico-Beach-Resort.h12321918.Hotel-Information) > > [El Nido Garden Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/El-Nido-Hotels-El-Nido-Garden-Resort.h20125738.Hotel-Information) > > [Karuna El Nido Villas](https://www.expedia.ca/El-Nido-Hotels-Karuna-El-Nido-Villas.h22418590.Hotel-Information) > > [Oceanica Resort Panglao](https://www.expedia.ca/Panglao-Hotels-Oceanica-Resort-Panglao.h7811250.Hotel-Information) > > [Aureo La Union](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Fernando-Hotels-Aureo-La-Union.h16099636.Hotel-Information) > > [Lagùn Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/El-Nido-Hotels-Lagun-Hotel.h24156404.Hotel-Information) > > [Bacau Bay Resort Coron](https://www.expedia.ca/Coron-Hotels-Bacau-Bay-Resort-Coron.h27364069.Hotel-Information) > > [Crimson Resort and Spa Mactan](https://www.expedia.ca/Lapu-Lapu-Hotels-Crimson-Resort-And-Spa-Mactan.h3742416.Hotel-Information) > > [El Nido Moringa Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/El-Nido-Hotels-El-Nido-Moringa-Resort.h32567103.Hotel-Information) > > [Club Balai Isabel](https://www.expedia.ca/Talisay-Hotels-Club-Balai-Isabel.h2964073.Hotel-Information) > > [Campuestohan Highland Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Talisay-Hotels-Campuestohan-Highland-Resort.h35238602.Hotel-Information) > > [Puerto Del Sol Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Bolinao-Hotels-Puerto-Del-Sol-Beach-Resort.h9404916.Hotel-Information) > > [Camaya Coast Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Camaya-Coast-Hotel.h33786001.Hotel-Information) > > [Cadlao Resort & Restaurant](https://www.expedia.ca/El-Nido-Hotels-Cadlao-Resort-Restaurant.h8961577.Hotel-Information) > > [Sunlight Eco Tourism Island Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Culion-Island-Hotels-Sunlight-Eco-Tourism-Island-Resort.h32565536.Hotel-Information) > > [The Manor at Camp John Hay](https://www.expedia.ca/Baguio-Hotels-The-Manor-At-Camp-John-Hay.h16009390.Hotel-Information) > > [Two Seasons Coron Island Resort ](https://www.expedia.ca/Coron-Hotels-Two-Seasons-Coron-Island-Resort-Spa.h6118021.Hotel-Information) > > [Camayan Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Morong-Hotels-Camayan-Beach-Resort.h8782508.Hotel-Information) > > [Shangri-La Mactan, Cebu](https://www.expedia.ca/Lapu-Lapu-Hotels-Shangri-La-Mactan.h190534.Hotel-Information) > > [Thunderbird Resorts - Poro Point](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Fernando-Hotels-Thunderbird-Resorts-Poro-Point.h2185153.Hotel-Information) > > [Solea Mactan Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Cordova-Hotels-Solea-Mactan-Resort.h15715493.Hotel-Information) > > [Cebu Safari and Adventure Park](https://www.expedia.ca/Carmen-Hotels-Safari-Camp-At-Cebu-Safari-Park.h42543778.Hotel-Information) > > [Canyon Cove Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Nasugbu-Hotels-Canyon-Cove-Hotel-Spa.h4727200.Hotel-Information)
