另類海灘小屋飯店 - 愛妮島

I would tell you about our stay, but we were never picked up & therefore didn’t get to stay here. My boyfriend & I waited 3 hours for the pick-up service & didn’t get picked up. We rang the hotel multiple times & nobody answered, we rang hotels.com & they also couldn’t get through to the hotel. We requested a refund (naturally) & a month later I am still arguing to get my money back as hotels.com have STILL not been able to get through to the hotel. Avoid at all costs.

If you want to unplug from the world and immerse yourself into the natural beauty of Palawan, I would definitely recommend Alternative Beach Cottages. The staff are so welcoming and the property is in such a quiet part of the El Nido bay that you would think you've got the whole region to yourself. It really is stunning. The accommodations themselves are basic, but good value for the area. There is no air conditioning, and electricity is turned off for the middle of the day, so if you plan to take an afternoon nap you might sweat. The WiFi and television signal were not working either, which really allowed us to respect the isolation and the incredible privilege it is to visit this part of the world. The dining area overlooking the water is special, and the nighttime lighting is beautiful. The food was very good as well, with variety for those with different dietary preferences. The island hopping guides are great, but note that only one tour is typically offered per day (unless you plan to charter the boat yourself). We had a wonderful and unique experience at Alternative Beach Cottages, and would recommend it if you want to get away from the town and into the beautiful islands without paying a fortune for the resorts. Thank you!!

Great stuff, stunning view, feel like in heaven. Highly recommended

This is perfect for a relaxed, chilled getaway. We stayed only for 2 nights but wished it a had of been a few more. There are only 4 cottages and a private beach so it is very intimate but the staff are amazing and always helpful. There is no menu and the chef cooks what he feels like but the food was stunning and you won't go hungry. Not best suited to people with mobility issues but would highly recommend people staying here.

Nobody was waiting for us at the pick up location. We had to wait almost 45 minutes. The walk to the boat to the island resort is a little scary/dirty. The staff was great and very friendly but this type of resort was not for us (i.e., no air conditioning, limited time for power, no hot water, no wifi, etc.). Unfortunately we only made it through one out of three reserved nights and decided to check out early. We ended up at another hotel in El Nido. Again this is no fault of the immediate staff and more due to what we're used to when we travel.
