Staff- good communication, courteous, always available and offered good values to island hoping packages and motorbike rental. Location- beach front. There is no front entrance to the main property which is a negative. You have to go through an alley to the side of the property leading to the beach and ti the back entrance of the apartment. However, you have to be back from downtown before 7 or 8 pm to avoid the high tide. Another draw back is no tricycle driver would like to take you back to the property during high tides. That means you have to walk about 15 minutes from townsquare, which is not bad. Although the studio apartment has a kitchen, the property is so close to other big resorts with restaurants and bars! Nice beach walk to at least three within 1 to 5 minutes! You can swim on the beach during high tides, but we prefer to use the pools in the nearby resorts for a very small fee. Price- very good value, especially if you prefer to cook your own meals and brew your coffee. But honestly, the food prices at the nearby restaurants are so reasonable, why bother cook?

We loved the location of the property and the view is amazing. Our room was really spacious and very comfortable. It could do with a little updating, but it didn't spoil our stay at all.

Location and Getting to La Salangane Caalan Beach Villa

Address and Directions

You will find the property situated in the Barangay Masagana area of Poblacion. This neighborhood is known for its local charm and proximity to the water. To reach El Nido, you should first book flight tickets to Lio Airport, which serves as the primary gateway to the region. From the airport, you can easily hire a tricycle for approximately ₱300 to ₱500 to reach the villa.

Navigating El Nido is best done via local tricycles, which are the primary mode of transport for short distances. If you are arriving from the bus terminal in Corong Corong, a tricycle ride to the villa will typically cost around ₱100 to ₱150 depending on your luggage. The roads in Poblacion are narrow and winding, making the tricycle the most efficient way to reach your destination.

The villa is positioned to give you a local perspective of El Nido. Unlike the busy main beach, the Caalan area offers a more relaxed pace. You will appreciate the convenience of being close to the town proper while having a quiet place to return to after a long day of island hopping or exploring the local markets and eateries.

The most immediate highlight is Caalan Beach, located just 115 meters away. You can reach this stretch of sand in about 2 minutes of walking. It is a favorite for those who enjoy quiet morning strolls or watching the sunset without the crowds found on the main tourist beaches. The calm waters here are ideal for a quick dip before breakfast.

For your administrative needs or to explore the local government center, the El Nido Municipal Hall is located 1.25 km away. You can reach this landmark in about 5 minutes by tricycle. It is a central point for understanding the local governance and is surrounded by various small shops and local eateries where you can grab a quick snack.

If you are looking for a different vibe, Corong Corong Beach is 2.19 km from the villa. A tricycle ride will take you there in approximately 10 minutes. This area is famous for its stunning sunset views and a wide array of restaurants. It is a must-visit spot for travelers who want to enjoy a dinner by the water while the sky changes colors.

Finally, for those arriving by air, El Nido Airport (ENI) is 2.47 km away. Depending on traffic, the drive takes about 10 to 15 minutes.

Your El Nido Travel Guide

Getting to El Nido from Manila and Major Philippine Cities

Traveling to El Nido is now more accessible than ever. Most travelers fly from Manila to Lio Airport, which is the fastest route. Alternatively, you can fly into Puerto Princesa and take a 5 to 6-hour van ride to El Nido. The van journey offers a scenic view of the Palawan countryside, though it is longer than the direct flight.

Best Time to Visit El Nido

The best time to visit is during the dry season, which runs from November to May. During these months, the sea is calm, making it ideal for boat tours and snorkeling. March and April are particularly popular, so if you prefer fewer crowds, consider visiting in November or early December when the weather is pleasant and the tourist volume is lower.

Food and Dining in El Nido — Filipino Must-Tries

When in El Nido, you must try fresh seafood, which is caught daily by local fishermen. Look for restaurants serving grilled squid, steamed lapu-lapu, and kinilaw, a local ceviche made with fresh fish and vinegar. For breakfast, try silog meals—garlic fried rice served with eggs and your choice of meat like longganisa or tocino.

Local Culture, Safety and Essential Apps in El Nido

El Nido is generally safe for tourists, but always practice standard travel precautions. Keep your valuables secure and use reputable transport services. Download essential apps like Traveloka for managing your bookings and Google Maps for navigation. Respect the local environment by avoiding single-use plastics and following the guidelines provided during island hopping tours.

The only real positive of this place is its beachfront location. When we arrived at the town square, the host arranged a tuk-tuk for us, but we were told to pay for it ourselves. We later learned many nearby accommodations provide complimentary transfers for check-in and check-out. We booked a four-night stay. First night: Acceptable, but the room had an old, very noisy air conditioner with no remote, and the shower pressure was extremely weak. Second night: The electricity went out. All surrounding properties switched to generators and had power. This one did not. Staff tried until midnight to start their generator but failed. We had no air conditioning, no fan, no lights, no hot water, and no way to charge our phones. The room was hot, dark, and full of mosquitoes. We assumed it would be fixed the next day. Third night: Still no electricity. I messaged the host, but we were expected to stay in the same conditions. Fourth night: After escalating the issue, we were moved to Reef Strand Hotel two minutes away. I wish we had booked there from the start. Spending three of four nights without electricity is unacceptable. The property seemed unprepared for outages and expected guests to tolerate substandard conditions. I would not recommend staying here.

In general El Nido is a quite crowded place, with ugly beaches and many people trying to sell you things. If you want to stay away from this mess, this hotel is a good option. It might take you a while to walk to it from downtown (around 20 min), but I think it is worthy. The room was spacious for the price we paid, and you will pay much more if you want to have the same in central El Nido. The hotel host was quite nice and helped us booking a bus ticket and finding a tricycle to take us to the bus station (100 PHP). It is not the hotel's fault, but if I could choose again I would not waste my time in El Nido. I'd spend more time in Port Barton (for relaxing and beautiful beaches) and Coron (for beautiful landscapes). There are so many people in El Nido's boat tours that it is impossible to see anything (you will get to the so called "secret beach" and find 300 people there). In general, the hotel made us feel better in a super disappointing place.

Place is too far from the city proper and the ride with the provided 3 wheel transportation is terrible. Roads are too narrow and the only nice feature is the view of the sea but the beach area in itself is inaccessible. There are no food facilities available and not all appliances were working plus there were ants in the rooms.

Before anything, I would like to say that the Mary Ann, the inn keeper, was very helpful and accommodating. Knowing that the location is very shady, she offers to buy water and drinks for us during our stay. Even helped us book a van. Now to the hotel review. The beach villa is a nice place to stay in if you want to get away from people and the main city center. It takes 10 minutes by trike to get there from the city center, and you'd have to pass through very small alleys and tight roads to get there. Beside the villa is an empty lot where they repair boats. If you're looking for a beach front, this isnt it either since there isnt much of a beach to speak of during high tide, and even during low tide, the beach is filled with big rocks so that doesnt make it any better. The rooms are very traditional with their walls and roofing with a really cold airconditioner. Comes fully equipped with a kitchen and fridge. Basically, if you just plan on staying in and cooking all your meals yourself, this place is perfect. However, if you just want a nice place to stay in and then explore the city streets and meet people, this wont work for you. They do have free hotel transfers from the beach villa to the city, but it takes 10 minutes for the trike to get there.

Ended up looking for another accomodation (Yes, it was double pay for us). No refund policy was a risk. They have diff hotels, wouldnt know if you'll be staying at the central part or out of no where. Also, make sure to REQUEST airconditioning, or else they will not transfer you to a room with one. Tried talking to the people to ask for even just a partial refund...nothing is the answer.

This is the best secret El Nido has. Now I know it's not the most convenient way of reaching and getting to the villa but once you get there it's amazing!!! The view in front of your villa is spectacular!!! The service we got from the caretaker (Mary Ann) and her husband is second to none. The couple went out of their way to serve us and to make sure we are happy and contented. They even cooked for us. Wonderful people. We would go back in a New York minute. We truly enjoyed staying at this place.

If you don`t mind sleeping with ants spread around the kitchen bench top and 12 inch geckos crawling around the room, then this place is for you. There is a slight partial sea view, but was mainly blocked by the vast amount of palm trees on the property. The building can be described as a very large and old tree house. It is literally supported by a large tree trunk with a swamp of ants housed within. Unfortunately, the geckos are necessary to keep the ants at bay due to the fact of it being supported by a large living tree trunk. The only good thing about this place was the housekeeper Myriam, who was always very kind and accommodating and even cooked a delicious lunch for us on two occasions. There was also a loss of electricity on a dozen occasions and their back up generator was faulty. If you don't want the ants and geckos stay somewhere else.
