Karuna El Nido Villas

Karuna has breathtaking views, simply beautiful. Dining in their restaurant is an experience itself, the food is delicious, the staff is very friendly and attentive, a wonderful reminder of how proud I am to be of Filipino heritage. The service is very professional and prompt. The pathways have an inline since it’s located in the mountain so if you are unable to physically walk up and down it may not be suitable but if you have no physical limitations then look no further, this place will be amazing!

Awesome amazing place...staff were top notch...they were goong through some renovations however it was not a factor of bother. Everyone was accommodating. Villa was perfect and the views were beautiful we will be going again...worth every penny.

Absoloutle stunning property. Our villa was beautiful, clean and comfirtable. The view is unbeatable, the staff were exceptional and the shuttle to and from town was really nice. Only area of improvement could be food, which is good but not amazing like the rest of the property.

A mountain side resort with stunning views! The location is close to the town center and nearby tourist attractions. The nearest beach (Vanilla Beach) is around 10-15 minutes from the property. We had a great time in Karuna because of the staff and their hospitality.

We woke up on the final day with no water. No one could shower and we had a flight to catch. Also the walkways are way to steep with no handrails. To get to restaurant you must climb approximately 20 steep steps. Completely unsafe, especially for a senior citizen!

Excellent location and friendly staff. A huge Thank you to everyone at Karuna. All smooth from the start to check out.Highly recommended to everyone.

Keep in mind check in time is at 300pm if you want to check in early I was charge 1200 Philippine also pick from the airport was 3000 thousand pesos private other than that I like the stay

Karuna is absolutely breathtaking. The view from our Juglo was stunning, overlooking both the ocean and the mountains. Bathing outdoors was a unique and unforgettable experience. The staff is super friendly Overall, a perfect 10 out of 10!

Excelente ubicación con una vista unica Desayunos incluidos a la carta Transporte completamente gratis entre el hotel y el centro de El Nido El spa súper recomendable

While the property is outside of town, they are beyond accommodating with transportation into and out of town, including the airport pick up. It is up the hill but there are some shops and restaurants that are a short walking distance from the hotel, including a great yoga studio. the rooms and pool have stunning views, breakfast is included and food is pretty good!

Such a unique experience! amazing views from our private deck

This is a great property. The views are probably best on the island, included breakfast was good and the staff was really good. Quality place, really enjoyed my stay.

Karuna is the most mind blowing place we’ve ever been. The grounds have to be the most beautiful place on the entire island of Palawan, with insane views of the entire Corong Corong area from the comfort of the infinity pool and restaurant. But the otherworldly views are still second to the unbeatable service. Staff are all insanely kind, helpful, with incredible English skills and they don’t let you lift a finger. We stayed in one of the Lumbung rooms and it was clean, stocked with great amenities, perfectly air conditioned, and all with amazing views atop the hill. Van drivers are constantly helping move guests around, restaurant food is actually like 5 star dining (I say that as someone who lives in Southern California and likes to eat at nice restaurants) and the entire stretch of town / beach down below the resort is just steps away. Also - while here we coordinated island hopping tours, massages, nacpan beach private van rides, and more all by simply messaging the front desk or popping in - they coordinated everything for us making it all so easy. The walk up and down to/from town below is steep but super doable and for the younger fit folks it’s a nice way to get some steps in. I have no doubt the attentive team will accommodate you to the best of their ability with van rides, etc. if needed (we took a ride a few times). I mean it with all my heart when I say: this place is so incredibly special. Do yourself a favor and experience it for yourself! Mabuhay!

It really nice and clean stuff are super friendly very helpful not ideal for older people being top on the mountain and stiff to go up and going down is ok the view is amazing but to go beach there’s a travel time

The staff was very helpful and accommodating. Whenever we needed to reach them they replied in a timely matter. The villa we stayed in was very beautiful and clean and overlooked a beautiful view. When dining in the restaurant there were many options!

Karuna is exactly as described. They provided transport for our small children & pregnant mother from our apartment to the restaurant because the units are on a cliff. Prepare to do a lot of steps. But it is worth it. The views are spectacular. Staff are very accommodating. Food & drinks are excellent. You will not be disappointed.

Beautiful views.
