It's a very clean front beach place with an amazing view of Coron-Coron bay with an amazing spot for the sunsets. The staff was very friendly and helpful and the rooms are amazing. We liked specially the fact that the Hotel supports the local Craftsmen and artists and you can see it on the used decor.

“Cosy luxury in paradise”
- • Leisure trip
- • Family with young children
- • Stayed 4 nights
A general problem in the Philippines is ants, which we experienced in many hotels including Frangipano. It is not the fault of the hotel, nor is it a cleanliness issue.
Location is great, views from room 301 were amazing, service was outstanding. Our stay unfortunately coincided with the Covid19 pandemic, which affected the pleasure of our trip. However if it wasn't for the hotel's staff (Jane in particular) who informed us immediately of the closure of Manila airport, we would had been stuck in El Nido for a month. It is a cosy little place, a small slice of paradise. The beach in front of the hotel stretches for kilometres and depending on the level of the water you can walk to the famous Las Cabanas beach from the hotel.

Knowing the day and date we were arriving and knowing that no available taxi in the vicinity are available. The hotel failed to have someone there to pick us up, consequently we had to wait and take a tricycle with our 3 lugguages. No happy hours

“Thank you Frangipani for making our stay at El Nido an awesome and memorable one!”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Stayed 3 nights
During our first night, the airconditioner in the room stopped functioning. We repeatedly had to call frontdesk everytime the aircon stopped functioning. The staff were able to fix it temporarily but it would stop functioning again. Finally, we decided to just let it be since me and my wife were already tired and sleepy. The next day, they were able to fix it (the aircon did not stop functioning anymore). The manager was very apologetic.
The room was so spacious! The room they assigned to us was just amazing. The front side of the room was made of glass which permitted lots of natural light which we really liked especially during the morning and sunsets. Wow, the sunsets there were nothing but awesome! Everyday, they gave you "surprises" like breads/cakes (I forgot what they called them) with notes. They even gave us a whole bottle of wine. It made us feel special. The included breakfast that they serve was also delightful. We had to make it a point to wake-up early to make sure we didn't miss breakfast! They served both local and international breakfasts. What I enjoyed the most was their tinapang bangus, corned beef, special longanisa, and the bacon and pancakes. Plus, their breakfast included fruits, coffee, and juice/shake. We mentioned that we were on our anniversary, and they served us their Cala Fiesta. Fiesta was an understatement for the amount of food that they served! All I'm gonna say was that we wished we had a bigger stomach to be able to finish all the delicious food that they served. Lastly, all their staff were nice, friendly, polite, and very helpful. We will never forget our stay at Frangipani!

There were not too many vegetarian options for breakfast in the Filipino section, but they were very accommodating in finding an alternative for me. The stairs were quite steep, so not ideal if you had limited mobility.
The room was so spacious and beautifully decorated. The views were exceptional and while you could hear the road from the living room, the bedroom was quiet. Breakfast was excellent and the staff were very friendly and helpful.

Very limited vegetarian options on the lunch/dinner menu (It’s a shame as I would have definitely eaten dinner at the restaurant otherwise (it had a lovely vibe and I always loved my breakfasts in the mornings)
This boutique hotel made us feel very welcome and we really appreciated the personal touches and how friendly the staff were The view from our balcony (and the bar) was astounding (we stayed in room 2) The staff were so lovely, helpful and very friendly (they helped us book tours, flag down taxi’s in the evenings and helped us to contact our flight company when we were unable to) The sweet note’s left every night in our room with little cakes as treats (and our lovely bottle of wine left for our anniversary - thank you) The location, right on the beach was peaceful and great to be away from the crowds. It was also really easy to get a Tuc Tuc into town in the evening where all the action happens (amazing restaurants, bars, clubs, no more than 5-10 minutes - £1-£2 each way). In the day you can either walk, take a Tuc tuc’s or hire a moped to discover the island ... we found it a great base to get to everything) The drinks, fresh juices and cocktails were amazingly fresh and beautifully presented The big bed, complimentary purified water and fresh bananas in our room The delicious breakfast included (great coffee, beautiful ambience, fresh fruit, fresh juice & their poached eggs were incredible) Overall the hotel was a beautiful place and felt very personal and private and would highly recommend a stay here

Where do I start? Our stay was incredible. Our room had a view to die for. Waking up and looking out of the window was a luxury! The room was spacious, comfortable and the decoration was beautiful and relaxing. The food in the restaurant was very good. Every evening they would leave a couple slices of cake in our room, which was delicious and a very sweet touch. The staff was the most kind, friendly and helpful we encountered whilst travelling in the Philippines, cannot praise them enough. The location was perfect for us, away from the busy center of El Nido, but not too far away. Beachfront, complimentary kayaks and stand up paddles. We watched perfect sunsets every evening, the view was amazing.

“Great hotel, but way overpriced”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Stayed 4 nights
- • Submitted from a mobile device
Even though the staff seems to try their best to provide a good service, we thought the areas they could focus on should be different: for example, we didn’t really need such frequent room service, but when we went to the bar a couple of times, there was no barman there. The swimming pool and the area around it are tiny, so we didn’t really feel like using them at all. For the price we paid (ca. £250/night), we expected much more unfortunately - the price was similar to what we’d pay at a luxury resort, which it really wasn’t. Some other hotels in the area were much cheaper, yet the quality of our stay in them was the same if not better. Unfortunately we cannot recommend staying in Frangipani unless the price is significantly lowered.
The room was great - spacious and with nice design and lots of amenities. We were given filtered water, a bottle of wine and fresh bananas to keep in the room, water was replenished several times a day. The housekeeping also happened a few times a day, with some nice notes and snacks left for us in the room. We were in the Philippines for our honeymoon, and it was my birthday too, so Frangipani kindly offered us a free dinner which was absolutely incredible, and we enjoyed every dish very much. There is an amazing bar upstairs with panoramic view of the bay - great for sunset watching. The restaurant was fantastic in general - breakfasts and dinners we had there were almost perfect every day. Staff is very friendly and professional, although there is room for improvement. Overall, the room, the food, the location and most of the service were great, but the hotel seemed a bit too pricy for what is included.
