Pet-friendly Hotels in EL Nido

The Karuna resort is a hillside paradise. We loved everything about the resort. The location was central and the views were absolutely stunning. Warning: there are quite a few steep hills and stairs all around the resort. You'll definitely get your workout here, but its so worth it. Our joglo was perfect. Clean and well appointed with modern amenities including comfortable beds, flatscreen TV with Netflix, fast wifi, and AC. There was plenty of room for our family of 3, along with a kitchen and large wraparound deck with views of the bay. It felt like our home away from home. We spent a lot of time at the pool, restaurant, and bar, which happened to be our favorite spots at the resort. The bar has a great happy hour and the restaurant has an extensive menu with lots of variety. One of the best things about Karuna is the staff. Lester, Sarifa, Tiffany, Prince, and Ellen were excellent hosts. They made our stay so wonderful, which made it hard to say goodbye!

We booked this place for a resort that we can unwind in. We aren’t ones to complain so please read this review and pick another place. El Nido is beautiful and there are some lovely resorts and accomodation around. The Orange Pearl is not this. The service is terrible. The manager is rude and doesn’t help with anything at all, even just asking for clean sheets and towels after our room wasn’t serviced like he said it would be multiple times. Music starts blaring from 7am so no relaxing at all. This is for their breakfast which is poor to say the least as we chose not to eat there after trying it on the first day. The restaurant is nothing great either The best part about the room is the aircon which works well. We are the closest room to the main reception area and we don’t get any wifi and neither do any of the other rooms. There is no coverage in any of the rooms either. The bathroom smells like sewage and the drains don’t work so prepare for the bathroom to flood when you shower. The location is right on the beach which is lovely but it also means you sit on your small balcony and get harassed by people selling things whenever you’re outside of your room which we understand around town but it’s a pain when you’re trying to read or relax. Overall this place is just not like some of the other places around the Phillipines we have stayed and so I’d recommend to stay away from it.

I came to this resort by myself and the staff have been incredible. The room is very clean with stunning views. Chef Raph make the best food ever! He is a very experienced chef with a very customer friendly attitude. He made food with some twist to make my experience unique. I live in Los Angeles around a lot Mexican tacos, his chicken tacos were the best I ever had. He made some fresh shrimp in a sauce that tasted so fresh and delicious. He connect the background of the guest with the beautiful location we are at through a food journey!

We arrived at this hotel after we cancelled a more expensive, horrendous hotel further up the road. There is nothing bad about this place... Its perfect! The rooms are clean, light and airy.. The bed is comfy and the deck area is stunning... You are literally on the beach. Everything works in it including the TV and Ac. The breakfast is good... I just wish they would add pancakes to the menu! The WiFi can be hit and miss but that is everywhere here so it's not a problem. There is a gorgeous resident cat and her kitten on site and as cat lovers we just loved them... Unfortunately we couldn't smuggle them home :) Overall this hotel saved my stay in el nido and turned what could have been a disaster into a dream... The staff can't do enough for you and I thank them for being so attentive. Gutted to be leaving but if you are after a comfortable, clean and happy stay ... Give this place a shot. You won't be disappointed!!

The first impression was just horrible. Taken a group tour and within his program, we all, in the size of 7, were settled in this place. The room is very close: the baggage is essentially hard to build so that it doesn't interfere under the feet. Also the transition was useful (always take with you), as in the rooms another type of roast. But we are still lucky: perhaps because we asked a room with a big bed (the workers are practically not speaking English at all and hardly understood at all that we all wanted from them). Although the room was eventually with two beds: one big and the other small. Still in this space we had a small cabinet and we had everything worked and nothing smelled. We stayed in a big plus. The rest were lucky less: It smelled, didn't work hot water, there was no chair and even the Internet barachlid more often than we (successful second floor). And although with great hardship and a couple of days later, part of our group moved to the same second floor - the Internet we worked better. Cleaning, if I correctly understood, on request. Breakfast as in all hotels of this category and on the ball above, scarce. Three breakfasts are offered for choice: English (toast, bean with jam and butter, banana), some kind of no toasts like and the Philippine version with rice (subscribed to the same bean and a couple more variations, For example with dried and at the same time fried fish). I took the Philippine version as I like rice and still fried could be chosen. The rest is unpleasant. Banana normal) coffee, like anywhere in the Philippines, soluble and disgusting. You can cook tea. Near the port from where we departed within our program for an island tour. Nearby, especially in the evening, a lot of shops, shops, cafes and restaurants. If you rely only on our experiences and feelings, hotels can put a firm three.

Dolarog, a true pet-friendly resort! The resort in itself is superb! It’s like a hidden gem of El Nido and the greatest thing about it is it’s truly a pet-friendly haven! What I like about it is that it’s still in the main island but gives off that exclusive feels. We stayed for 8 days in total at the beachfront villa called Lagen which is a few meters from the beach overlooking their jetti way and that awe-inspiring giant limestone directly in front of our villa. Getting to the resort is other via speedboat or their private access road from Vanilla Beach using a golf car. You know that you’ll have an excellent stay when the owner, Mr. Edu picks you up(or sometimes the son) from Vanilla beach for a more personal touch. How hospitable right? He also has a selection of Italian wines from his cellar as he is Italian, I had Chianti btw over dinner with the beach, stars and the moon as our backdrop. Truly magical! The rooms are always kept clean by the staff who are also very friendly. The main Receptionist, Tata is attentive and very pleasant not to mention very informative. I would take her as my head of staff if only I could! She knows her products and knows when to recommend it, the type of staff who is not in your face all the time to promote an offer. I must say she is one of the nicest resort staff I ever come across with. Food is relatively good. Home cooked and unpretentious. As with any advice when you go to a limited supply area such as El Nido, don’t get your expectations too high on having a western dish so much because obviously, you will have some issues so I only ordered I know locally sourced here like seafood or their filipino dishes like the menudo and chicken curry which are my faves! Filipino breakfast is good. You might wanna carry spare powerbanks as the resort rely on their own generator for electric supply. From 6am-9am and 12noon-6pm there is no electric power. Also, TV is not available (not sure abt other rooms though) but who needs a TV anyway? It’s not like you chose to go to El Nido and sit all day on Netflix and stay indoors duh! I rented a motorbike for 500/day basis and this really helped me in exploring or going out of the resort but the resort offers complimentary shuttle via their golf car to Vanilla beach for free but I wanted to leave and come back on my own time. This is also a 20 minutes walk to Maremegmeg beach by beachside access. Tricycle ride cost between 150 going to town from Vanilla beach btw. Overall our experience is a great 4.5/5 with .5 leaving for improvement on the land access before the Dolarog gate. Also, I’m pretty confident even without any advertisement or active social media promotion, the resort will do just good but let me tell when I posted 1 picture of Dolarog on my socmed, people flocked my DM to ask if I was in another country. This is how beautiful the resort is but I hope that with how Millennials pick up on their next destination is mostly through social media, the resort pu
