Best Hotel in El Nido Town”
We stayed at this hotel from October 15-18, 2021. We were very impressed the way they handled their guests. The hotel is located in the center of El Nido town. You are near literally to everything (restaurants, beach, store etc). Our room was spacious. AC is working properly. View in the balcony of our room is amazing. Room and hotel cleanliness is impeccable. Plated breakfast is delicious. The most outstanding aspect of this hotel is the staff and their service. The time that we arrived, we've met the friendly and amazing owners of the property. They made sure that all our requests and needs are addressed. They also gave us recommendation on what to do and see and where to eat in El Nido. The staff are just amazing. They are courteous and they went beyond to provide us quality service. The hotel also provided us free shuttle service to the airport. The quality of service didn't suffer even if we are the only guests of the hotel. I will surely recommend this hotel to my family and friends. I will stay here again if I will visit El Nido soon. More power Sea Cocoon!

Great staff & Location, Facilities needs a further upgrade”
Great staff and Location. Staff was on top of a leaking roof that had water flowing down the stairwell. Staff was on top of the situation, eventhough it was hard work throughout most of the day when its raining. No lifts in the hotel but they said when the new wing opens next year it will have one. Hotel for its size still dont have its a regular shuttle to pick up guests from Lio airport, so make sure to email and get a confirmation if you are expecting a lift to the hotel. Otherwise a ok stsy for this 2?1/2 /3 star hotel.

Very good”
Staffs are very friendly and the location is good as it’s very close to tourist areas. I wish they could add a small fridge in all rooms

friendly and kind staff but condition is more like 1.5 star hotel”
I've stayed at many island hotels across south east asia and this is the only one i felt the need to check out early because the condition was so poor and i woke up 6 times every night. -wifi was not working half the time - room was more humid than outside - bedsheet felt very plastic-y and humid. my skin couldn't breathe when im sleeping - ac blasts on my face when i sleep even though i used the curtain which is supposed to block the wind I wrote a review on google (which is not showing anymore) and had some back and forth with the owner who was unsympathetic unapologetic and defensive. while i appreciate the owner defending his business, the attitude left a bad taste in my mouth. i cant paste the entire thread here bc of the word limit. read through the google reviews you'll see im not the only one complaining about the issues but owner disputes every point and never apologizes and just tells the reviewer "you seem annoyed" or "you have a personal issue" stay anywhere else!

Great hotel”
El Nido isn't too big of a town so I didn't think location really matter being here. This hotel was a straight shot down one street from the ferry (which is what my partner and I took to El Nido from Coron). Because we had luggages, we took a trike but if we didn't have them, walking wouldn't have been too bad. It was a beautiful hotel but climbing stairs may be necessary depending on what floor you're on. We were on the fourth floor so make sure not to forget anything before you leave your room! Wifi was available in your room once you ask the front desk or bell hop to input the password into the devices you want wifi for. The hotel staff were always friendly and with a smiling face. Would definitely recommend to friends and family!

Yes to Sea Cocoon, but don't use Agoda (higher price!)”
Sea Cocoon is a great little hotel with a really convenient location, great staff, strong wifi, good air con etc. However, I made the mistake of booking through Agoda and not comparing the price with the actual hotel rate. With all the add-on taxes, I ended up paying £75 (5,300 pesos) through Agoda for a room that would have cost £50 (3,600 pesos) if I had gone direct to the hotel. That's a hefty premium. I'm hoping that Agoda will refund the difference, but I'm not holding my breath.

Comfortable, spotless and the most friendly staff and owner ”
We loved our stay at the Hotel. This was recommended to us by friends and I'm so glad we chose to stay here. We had a few requests which were all accepted and we also got an early check-in. The staff are very welcoming and friendly. We also got to meet the owner Eric who was so accommodating and friendly. Eric knew all the guests by name and took the time to have a chat, it's a little extra that makes your stay that bit more enjoyable. The rooms were spotlessly clean on arrival and were made up every day. The shower was lovely and always had hot water. The wifi was fast and the breakfast was yummy with a lot of variety. If I return to el nido one day I will definitely stay here again. Thank you Eric and all the staff.

Surprisingly very clean and comfortable”
We found the hotel and our room to be very clean. The room was quite spacious, the bed was comfortable, the TV had a decent amount of channels to flick though (both filipino and english), and the bathroom was also spacious and clean. As my room was street side, I was worried that traffic noise might be an issue, but this was not the case. Staff were also very polite and always smiling, and were always willing to try and help (if they could that is). The location of this hotel is in the heart of El Nido town (Barangay Buena Suerte), so it's very easy to walk around to a lot of the restaurants and bars, and is only a 5-10 minute scooter/tricycle taxi ride to the Las Cabanas area where you'll find more restaurants and bars (as well as along the way there). Would definitely stay here again.

Very pleased with stay”
I researched lots of hotels in El nido and chose this hotel on my birthday. I absolutely enjoyed the hotel and met my expectations for what I paid for. Room was sparkling clean, used good quality furniture, double door to prevent noise from street, balcony to dry clothing, comfortable mattress, facilities were well looked after. Staff were very nice. I did not have time to use a swimming pool as I was too busy exploring around. I strongly recommend this hotel.

Great value for money”
This place is in the centre of everything, it's very easy to walk everywhere from there. We really enjoyed and relaxed staying in the room after our tours. Staff was very helpful and friendly. We really suggest this place to have a nice stay while in El Nido. Thanks

If your thinking about booking this hotel in elnido, book it before it goes !!!”
The hotel was spot on, this is one of the few hotels that you actually get WiFi and it works good. Was able to FaceTime home and scroll through social media no problem. The staff were really helpful and were always smiling. We didn’t use the pool much because we were on the tours but it seemed pretty good for the time we were in it. The location is perfect, slightly out of the way from the noise at night but not too far that you have to get a tricycle everywhere. 2 minute walk max. The only downside to this hotel if I was being really picky is the breakfast, although it’s free it was very poor. The choices were minimal, the food wasn’t very good and mostly it was cold. The omelette was probably the best thing because it was cooked how you liked but even that wasn’t great. I’d recommend going elsewhere for breakfast even thought it was free. Don’t let that put you off though because we had an amazing time in elnido and the hotel just topped it off. I would recommend this !!!

Perfect stay in El Nido”
We came from a 5hr land trip from Puerto Princesa and was relieved we booked this hotel! The rooms were clean and new, towels were good quality, wifi was fast, a/c working, tv with cignal cable. Hotel has a pool, great for lounging and swimming after a full day out. Breakfast is free too. They give free water refills anytime of the day so better bring a water bottle! Staff were polite and always smiling, ready to help with anything. Location was ideal, close to all the good restos, bars and shops. Easy to walk around, get a tricycle or even rent a motorbike. Overall a perfect stay! Highly recommended!

Recommended stay”
The hotel is situated in the middle of the town. You're one street away from the main markets and restaurants (all within a 5 mins walk). The hotel facilities are great and it's great for what it is. The staff are very polite, friendly, hospitable and accommodating. I had a amazing experience with them and will stay here again.
