Lock in a great price for Vellago Resort – rated 9.1 by recent guests!

to get started.

As soon as we stepped off the boat we were greeted by the most friendly staff with shell necklaces and free welcome drinks, making us feel instantly welcome and comfortable. They remembered our names every time they saw us and the wonderful staff went above and beyond to make my partner's birthday there unforgettable. They organised balloons, streamers, a beautiful dinner on the beach with complimentary cake and wine! The location and the room are equal to the quality of service received. Just stunning, and so many free activities to do whilst there; we went kayaking, snorkeling and swimming every day. The food is delicious and the boat ride to the main beach is only 10min away. We absolutely loved it here.

Teegan, Vietnam

Located in paradise. Amazing view from the room, quiet and relaxing. Staff is amazingly friendly and helpful. Cocktails are very good. Beach is one of the bests.

Raul, Spain

Simply Wonderful!!! My fiancé and I still as thrilled as ever to boast about this slice of paradise that’s called Villago Resort. We stayed there for 4 nights , from the moment we wake listening to the crash of waves from our balcony till the moment we sleep by its hypnotic sound . We were treated royally by all the staff specially Herwin and Jay. We couldn’t dream of staying anywhere other than Villago .

Nesrine, United Arab Emirates

Staff were very friendly and helpful. Rooms comfortable, big balcony with a fantastic view. This is the perfect place for a lazy holiday with a special friend.

Anthony, Kenya

The Staff made us feel fantastic. They were totally committed to our needs and satisfaction. Very warm people. The views astonishing.

Rodrigo, China

Because this resort is small you get excellent attention from the staff. We scheduled private fishing and island hopping tours with them and we never had to deal with any crowds. The owner took us by speed boat to see all the sights we wanted to see and even showed us some cool hidden spots. The manager jay hooked us up with transportation to and from the resort and we never had to worry about anything! Last but not least, you get an entire gorgeous beach to yourself in the mornings and evenings.

Andrew, United States of America

Staff, location, view, kayak, remoteness of it. Customer Service was above and beyond!

Christine, United States of America

I loved the privacy it offered and there are limited rooms - beach is semi private - the staff really go the extra mile to make your stay special - I wish we had stayed here all of the 7 nights at El Nido - I am dreaming of coming back. Couples resort which is a bonus!!

Wifi Connection did not work properly.
This is the most beautiful place & location! Staff is amazing! The resort has just 4 rooms, so it is super private & exclusive and offers the most romantic evening dinners at the beach with just a hand full of guests (if at all). We got a special rate via booking.com which was very lucky - thanks for that!

The room did not have a separate toilet area from the room. That was odd to me because if I had to use the toilet to relieve myself I didn’t want the person I was there with to smell my toilet use. I had to ask her to go to the outside so I could use the toilet.
Very small and boutique resort. Perfect

Mosquitoes are expected, it is what it is. We just wished the electricity was available all day since there were times where we wanted to go back and rest, or even order a pina colada but isn’t available till 6pm because of electricity. I think that if the resort made this small tweak, it would encourage repeat customers. Especially since it’s charging at a high price per night, paying for a luxurious resort, it’s a good consideration since most visitors are used to AC.

Blind in bathroom didn’t work so there was no privacy, electricity not on all day can be problematic and requires you to plan a lot which you don’t want to do when your relaxing. And half of The cocktails on the menu were mojitos which we love but they didn’t have mint the whole time we weee there so only half the cocktails could be ordered. Private tours are ridicoulsly expensive
Staff are amazing and very friendly and helpful, room service was great and we really felt taken care of
