카루나 엘 니도 빌라

Our recent stay in El Nido with Karunda exceeded all expectations. The villa and facilities were immaculate and offered stunning views. What truly set the trip apart was the exceptional staff, who provided continuous, personalized service for our family!! The culinary offerings were equally impressive. Thank you for a memorable week in paradise!!

Resort is a steep 400m up a hill to reception and a further distance uphill to some of the villas. We were lucky to stay in Studio 2. Our room was beautiful and not many steps to the restaurant or pool. Staff were very nice and accommodating and have a free shuttle into and from town. If you don’t have general fitness I recommend you contact the resort when booking accommodation.

Fantastic location, views and excellent staff.. It was even better you can have food from the restaurant delivered to your room and enjoy the views. Transport also into the town and back at set times. We had a fantastic time and will be back in the future.

Stayed here with my partner for two nights while visiting El Nido. The staff were friendly, accommodating, and very helpful throughout our stay. The hotel has beautiful views, though it’s located at the top of a very steep hill. A shuttle is provided, which is helpful since taxis and tricycles can’t access the property directly. Our only issue was the noise at night. Our room was closest to the road, and we could hear tricycles, barking dogs, and vendor carts. Light sleepers may want to bring earplugs. Overall, a great stay with excellent service and stunning views.

Incredible view. Great staff. Villas are Instagram worthy

The hotel was amazing. We stayed in Studio 2 and the view was incredible. The room and facilities were brilliant. The staff were really friendly and helpful and went above and beyond to help. The view and location is amazing. The hotel is set on the hillside, but they offer free lifts up and down from the main road which was really helpful.

Staff friendly and helpful.

Beautiful Villas on the hillside of Corong-Corong Beach (a bit of a hike up a steep driveway but nothing one of the tricycles or scooters cant get up). I stayed in Joglo 1 which was a beautifully decorated and themed room overlooking the hills and ocean. Its a large room, well working AC, beautiful balcony and over all an amazing place to stay that I would love to visit again. The staff were amazing, extremely knowledgeable and helpful and assisted in whatever way they could. A brief but detailed welcome and tour of the room gave me all the information i needed to be comfortable.

Staff were mostly nice. The view is breathtaking

Don’t judge a place by its reception area! Karuna ended up being one of our absolute favorite honeymoon stays. We had a slight check-in mix-up (we were given villa J1 instead of the higher J2 we booked via Expedia), but J1 was still beautiful with a gorgeous view. The room was spacious and well-laid out. Because of the open, tropical bathroom design, you might get visits from harmless little frogs or lizards. We actually befriended a tiny frog on our shower floor! If you’re squeamish, the staff will happily come remove them for you. The amenities are top-notch. The infinity pool offers spectacular views, and their WhatsApp messaging system made communication seamless. Don't skip the onsite restaurant—they serve some of the best pizza we've ever had in the Philippines, and room service is free! Just make sure you ask what the wait time will be for room service as sometimes it was 15 minutes and other times it was over 1 hour wait. Breakfast was included and freshly made to order which was amazing every morning. Location-wise, it's a peaceful retreat outside downtown. They offer a free scheduled shuttle to town, or they’ll drive you to the base of the hill to grab a local trike. Pro-Tip: For a change of scenery, take the shuttle to the bottom of the hill and walk to Sunset Lion Restaurant for an amazing dinner view. Overall, we had a fantastic stay and would definitely return!

Staff and service were amazing. Incredibly responsive. Pool and restaurant were wonderful. We spent much time there. We enjoyed the free shuttle into town. breakfast was delicious and they brought to our room and balcony for no charge. Our villa was amazing however we did have trouble with the air conditioning. The villa is an Indonesian style so we are not clear if the design does not allow for proper cooling (bathroom is outdoors) or if it was a faulty aircon. Staff tried daily to make us more comfortable and brought in several fans. The location is a bit away from el nido town and up a steep hill. This allowed for beautiful stunning views and sunsets but required a ride up and down the hill. This was our favourite hotel and all things in, we would stay here again.

Good stay thank you. Food from the restaurant was very inconsistent. Either perfectly hot and delicious or stone cold and gross. Also took a very long time to arrive with meals forgotten often.

What a wonderful stay we had in the Jaglo 1 Villa. From the check-in to the checkout, everything was absolutely wonderful. The Philippines spirit of hospitality is very apparent and the staff goes out of their way to make their guests very happy. I would highly recommend staying here for anybody visiting El Nido. Be aware it is on a mountain side so very hilly. If you cannot walk comfortably up hills and down hills, you will struggle to stay at this property. Thank you again to the entire team at Karuna!!!

Chambre spacieuse douche exterieure parfait ...la vue est wow...service au top...seule bémol bcp d escaliers mais on le savait donc ca nous a pas dérangés

Everything about our stay was amazing. We stayed in Joglo 2, a beautiful unique villa with a wrap around porch overlooking the ocean. The villas are perched on a hill with spectacular views and gorgeous sunsets. You could also catch the beautiful sunsets from the infinity pool and the restaurant. The restaurant was wonderful with many choices. The staff was very attentive (Wilma and Jade in particular). We also had wonderful massages at the spa. In short we loved it !

Beautiful location and incredible staff

Incredible view from room and restaurant. Staff was friendly and always willing to help. Lots of wildlife such as geckos around, but harmless. Can’t wait to visit again.

Beatiful villas and views, professional staff who ensure all your needs. Good restaurant with okay pricing. Free transportation and pickup to city center. Can recommend!

Clean, beautiful view, friendly staff, transportation services included.

Flot udsigt og rummelige værelser.
