centrally located in El Nido, Sea Cocoon Hotel was very welcoming. Good breakfast included, the hotel was very clean and the hotel staff were lovely. I would recommend this hotel.

Sue United Kingdom

I loved the decor of the hotel. The owner and the staff were so friendly and helpful. The breakfast was super tasty and the hotel was so central to everything ☺️ The beautiful chow-chows were a bonus 🤩

Michaela Ireland

Everything. The staff are absolutely exceptional, kind, helpful and friendly. The location is perfect. Our room had views of the ocean and mountains and it had a little balcony we pulled a couple of chairs out onto and would sit and watch. The room is quiet so you can sleep well and the bed is super comfortable. The room was cleaned daily and they have water refill stations on every level which is very convenient. It was our favourite hotel throughout our entire Philippines trip the photos dont do it justice. Its better in real life.

Redguard Spain

The staff are the best. Super friendly and the place is crazy clean. Location is 10 out of 10. Close to the food market and walking distance to tours and nightlife.

Greg New Zealand

The rooms are spacious with good modern showers and comfortable beds. Lin on the front desk was fantastic - very welcoming and extremely helpful. We were also greeted by the owner directly and thanked in person when we left. The location is excellent - it’s really easy to get to all the restaurants and the pier from which dive trips / island hopping trips depart.
