椰子花園別墅飯店

This property was a disaster.You first walk past as if you are going through everyone’s back yard. Then open a gate to the property which looks like it’s abandoned huts, it’s dirty, landscaping is like overgrown grass and plants. You will be sleeping in premade huts. There is a toilet out in the open, once we saw that we walked out of the property! It felt unsafe and unclean. You are 20-30 minutes from El nido!

Really enjoyed my stay at Coco Garden. The owner Ray, his associates George and Gerri Lynn made my experience in El Nido memorable. Treated me and every other guest like family. Ray will do what he can to assist in your travels. The property itself is close to Vanilla Beach and some eateries. It’s more chill than the standard hostel. Rent a scooter and you’ll be good. Wi-fi in all of El Nido is spotty, so you have to patient, but Ray will help you if you’re in a pinch. Will be looking forward to seeing Ray and company soon!!!

we stayed there for 3 nights + Beautiful nippa huts + a lot of space + nice garden + breakfast included + the owner (Ray) is very friendly and tries to help as much as possible to make your stay pleasant. - very far away from the City centre (you Need to rent a Scooter!) - very loud at times (you can hear every word the neighbour in the hut next to you is saying; a lot of roosters around

I like that you get to experience the traditional bahay kubo theme and it was done nicely at Coco Villa

Good and clean place with nice and helpful owners. Well priced highly recommend

we arrived later in the evening coming from the bus from puerto princessa, and were welcomed warmly into a karaoke night the owners and some of the guests were having! we were shown to our villa, which is a bamboo hut with a entrance room comfortable for sitting that has a table, a bed section with a comfortable clean bed and mosquito net as it is not fully sealed to the outside, and a bathroom with a sink shower and well working flush toilet. the shower is cold water only but i think you’ll find this common in the philippines. there is no AC, but there is a fan with kept us nice and cool. this is not a fancy schmancy hotel, but it is clean, cozy, unique, homey, and the service is out of this world! free breakfast every morning, the owners and staff will help you out with whatever you need. because it is a bit far out of town-they can help you rent a scooter (totally worth it it makes everything on the island accessible) or call you a tricycle! for the price, i believe there’s no better place to stay in el nido. we love and miss our lil villa already and would totally stay again!

Proximity to beach, restaurants and local shops. Services by owner and staff were satisfactory, always willing to lend a helping hand.

Arrived in El Nido upon my check in date. The island had some bad rain and flash flood (according to the owner). NO ONE CALLED ME TO LET ME KNOW THAT WE COULDN'T CHECK IN DUE TO THE CONDITION OF THIS PLACE. I HAVE STAYED HERE TWICE IN THE LAST 3 MONTHS AND REALLY ADMIRED THE PLACE AND THE STAFF. NO ONE INFORMED ME NOR TEXT ME NOR EMAILED ME TO LET ME KNOW THAT THE PLACE WAS RAMSACKED DUE TO THE RAIN. I ARRIVED AT COCO GARDEN, THERE WAS NO ONE THERE, THE PLACE LOOKED ABANDONED AND EMPTY. AFTER YELLING OUT FOR SOMEONE, FINALLY THE OWNER CAME OUT AND TOLD ME THAT HIS PLACE WAS HIT BY THE FLASH FLOOD AND THE RAIN. THERE IS NO WATER AND THE PLACE WAS NOT AVAILABLE. I RENTED 3 COTTAGES AND NOT ONE WAS AVAILABLE. RAY TOOK THE LIBERTY TO DRIVE AROUND WITH US TO HELP US FIND ANOTHER PLACE, BUT UNFORTUNATELY, A LOT OF PLACES WERE SOLD OUT AND COULD NOT ACCOMMODATE US FOR 3 ROOMS. AFTER LOOKING FOR 2 AND A HALF HOURS, WE FINALLY FOUND A PLACE WITH ONLY 2 ROOMS AVAILABLE - EL NIDO BEACH RESORT, WHICH WAS PRICEY. WE HAD NO CHOICE BUT TO CHECK IN AT EL NIDO BEACH RESORT. THE OWNER TOLD ME TO NOT CANCEL WITH EXPEDIA AND JUST LET IT GO AS IF WE CHECKED IN. AND THAT HE WILL JUST REFUND ME THE MONEY. I GUESS HE IS WAITING FOR EXPEDIA TO PAY HIM, BUT THIS IS NOT MY CONCERN. THE OWNER SHOULD REFUND ME ALL THE MONEY REGARDLESS. BOTTOM LINE, IT IS UNPROFESSIONAL THAT NO ONE, I REPEAT, NO ONE FROM COCO GARDEN INFORMED ME THAT THE PLACE WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE FOR CHECK IN.

Mein Freund und ich hatten zuerst nur eine Nacht gebucht, sind dann aber wine Woche geblieben weil wir es so toll fanden! Meiner Meinung nach die beste Unterkunft was du für das Geld in El Nido finden kannst. Die Bungalows liegen etwas außerhalb vom Stadtzentrum, man erreicht es aber in kurzer Zeit und für wenig Geld mit einem tricycle. Dafür aber ist der schöne vanilla bzw. las cabañas Beach sehr nah, dort haben wir die meiste zeitverbracht. Der Host Ray ist der beste Host auf Erden! Wir haben oft mit ihm gekocht oder ein Glas Rum getrunken, er hat uns tolle Tipps gegeben, uns sogar zb zum Busterminal oder in die Stadt gefahren und hat allgemein alles getan damit man sich wohl fühlt. Eigentlich hatten wir El Nido schon verlassen, sind aber wieder zurück gekommen weil wir ihn tatsächlich vermisst haben. Er ist wie ein Papa 😁 Also ich kann jedem die Unterkunft wärmstens empfehlen!

Weve found this nice Place and it was the best accomandation while were travelling. It feels like home and the host ist so nice and helpful. We will come back again :-)

Amazing. Everything was amazing. Ended up extending, and Ray was just fantastic. Would totally recommend and return if I was to return to the Philippines.,

Bij aankomst was er geen huisje die we hadden gereserveerd voor ons - wel werden we in een ander hotel gezet - wat een muffig zeer vochtig hotel was waarnaast veel werd gebouwd ( de hele nacht door ) - de Locatie op de kaart klopt voor geen meter - het is veel verder weg hoog in de bergen en niet zoals op de kaart langs de kust lijn. ( locatie is zeker 2km verder dan op de kaart )

Lots of positives about this stay, George and Eileen were fantastic. As the place was outside of town, George offered lifts to and from places no trouble at all. Fantastic! They helped us with booking a tour, checked up on us when we were ill (Thai restaurant in town, stay away!), booked the bus for us. Very helpful! The cabin was very cute! Large bed, nice bathroom and each come with a table and seating area which was very handy! Breakfast was toast, eggs, coffee and Melen. Nice! Only downside is the location, it’s not where is says on the map, it’s about another 3km away, but with George giving us a lift it was not an issue! The beach she took us too was completely beautiful too which was only 5 mins down the road and very few people on it! WiFi wasn’t working but it’s only a new place and a few places down the road did so wasn’t too much of an issue. Lovely stay! Amazing staff!

Coco was good overall. Its a simple, cute little place to experience real village life in the Philippines. Nice clean cottage with huge bed, own clean bathroom (shower and toilet). Location is not the best. You are living among the locals, with rooster doing thier job in the morning. Away from all the hustle and bustle and if you need a ride to town there is a free shuttle service. Staff are very friendly and accomodating. Place itself is good and clean.

El lugar es hermoso y las dos chicas que nos atendieron fueron súper amables , nos ayudaron a solucionar todo lo que necesitábamos . El único problema con el lugar es que no tienen aún servicio de internet y en esa zona muchas compañías de teléfono no funcionan . Pero por el resto es un lugar hermoso .

I called the hotel several times on the arrival date but no answer, we end up getting a different hotel. And this is a really really bad experience in the middle of no where.
