This was without a doubt the best accommodation we had during our entire trip to the Philippines. The house itself is spectacular – beautifully decorated, the rooms are extremely comfortable, and there’s even an aqua service inside. And the views… simply unbeatable! Lee and Rufi are truly wonderful hosts. They carried our backpacks up to the house, prepared delicious breakfasts every morning (worthy of a resort!), and were always ready to give us tips or help with anything we needed. They even lent us a dry bag for our island hopping tour. We honestly have no words to describe how hospitable and kind they were. Staying here was an unforgettable experience, and we would recommend it to anyone without hesitation.

I love this place, from the moment I went through the gate I felt that this place is something special. I didn't expected a to find a place like that. The owner gave me an upgrade which was really kind. I was the only guest for that time so I felt like a VIP. During this time I spend a lot with the owner Dean. And I wanna say a special thank to Dean for this amazing time. I had the possibility to spend the whole time with Dean and his friend Christoph (also lives at Bucana Beach). Because of Dean we had a private boot and went to Nacpan Beach for snorkeling and barbecue. Also a special thank you to Chris (the cook, the driver and men for everythingI for driving me everywhere and to Shirley, she guided me through this time. Through Shirley I had the possibility to give a free dance workshop in High school from Bucana. I get touched with the locals which was amazing. If you are looking for a place to find peace, this place is definitely one of the best place on earth. Thank you Dean, Shirley, Chris and his son and Christoph for this amazing time which will always be in my heart and I will never forget! I didn't thought that a vacation turn into making friends! See you next year! Much love, Ana

The location is absolutely beautiful—peaceful, serene, and away from the busyness of El Nido town. I have honestly never felt so relaxed during a trip. In just a few days, it felt like a full reset. Julius and Raya, who built and run the hotel, are incredibly kind and welcoming. As two girls travelling together, we felt completely safe and looked after the entire time. The beachside setting was perfect—we were more than happy to stay put, soak in the views, and unwind. There are a few lovely restaurants on the beach and local shops nearby for anything you need. The facilities were spotless and thoughtfully done. Everything felt clean, calm, and well cared for. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking to truly relax and enjoy a slower pace. A hidden gem, and somewhere I’d return to in a heartbeat.

I had a very pleasant stay at the lodge. The room was comfortable and well-equipped. The amenities were excellent, including free coffee, access to a microwave, and a clean, well-maintained bathroom. The terrace was useful for drying clothes. Free parking was also a big plus. Overall, a great value for a cozy and hassle-free stay.
