LIO HOTELS GROUP TREAT CUSTOMERS LIKE DIRT
The El Nido Cove Resort is part of the LIO HOTELS GROUP which also includes the Huni Lio, Seda Lio and a few others. I was booked into the Cove but at the last minute was involuntary "walked" to a much lesser property, the Huni Lio. No compensation was offered by Lio Group and they did not offer even an apology. I booked a resort (# 7 in El Nido) and ended up in a Motel 3 1/2. I highly recommend you AVOID THE LIO PROPERTIES as your holiday may end up in the dumpster. There are better more ethical properties out there that may WANT your business.

It was an overall great stay. The staff were very accommodating and friendly. The resort is very private and quite. The forest rooms had some maintenance issues which hopefully they were able to fix.

Top notch resort for guests who are looking for a quiet island resort with modern amenities. Near everthing but preserves the island feel El Nido is famous for.

Arrive before dark
The staff is composed of 6 14 year old boys from what I could tell. And the floor in my room was never swept and dirty the entire stay. There was a pitcher of water in the room and no glass. I’ve enjoyed hotels much better at half the price in El Nido. Also it is not 6 km from town center rather a 30 minute trike which is scary in the dark. The breakfast gets 4 star but other than that the food was basically non existent. If you go get there before dark because there are roots to trip over.

I simply fell in love with El Nido Cove. Location is about 10km away from Municipal Hall (perfect for those who want a quiet/peaceful vacation). Stayed there for 4 days in their beachfront room for two (6 pax can actually fit in 2 queen beds). Price was one of the least expensive we could find BUT the room, food, and experience were more than what we paid for. Buffet breakfast didn't have as many choices but everything tasted awesome for something complimentary (menu prices for lunch/dinner are surprisingly budget-friendly). Other reviews say the place needs renovation, which I do not completely agree with because I think it adds up to the rustic feel (though i wish the restroom had a bidet) but the rest is good. All staff were always smiling and helpful. They can make arrangements if you still don't have activities to do in El Nido (super nice of them). You can also avail of their free kayak (waters in front of the hotel/resort have plenty of beautiful corals and fishes). Lovely sunset in the afternoon while enjoying the pool. All in all we loved every bit of our stay. Will definitely come back and recommend to friends.

The place is very quiet and has serene atmosphere so it's perfect for retreat, relaxation, and rest. The sunset view is perfect too. The food is great but not expensive.

This property was stunning. The staff were so kind and helpful. The views from your room are breathtaking. If you’re looking for somewhere to relax and be peaceful this is for you. It’s about 20 mins from town but close to Lio beach which was a great place to eat and explore. Would stay again for sure!

Needs investment to make it fabulous!
Hotel staff are amazing. However hotel itself needs some work. Not a massive investment needed to make it fabulous. tea & coffee, hairdryer and bath mat would make all the difference!

Beautiful stay
We decided to stay here as it was one of the only resorts we could find in El Nido at a reasonable price. The resort itself is located a 5 minute drive from El Nido airport and the hotel offer free airport transfer which was a bonus. The hotel was clean and staff were extremely friendly. The hotel is also a 5 min drive from lio beach and the hotel offer free shuttle to and from here too. The town is about 20 mins by a rickshaw which costs approx 300 pesos each way. The breakfast was average - not a lot of choice for vegetarians but other than that I would definitely recommend this hotel- the restaurant view is stunning and overlooking the sea. Overall I was very pleased with my stay.

This resort has so much potential if the staff had some training and the property maintained. It feels abandoned. The bathrooms are rusty, no soap, hand towels, blankets, water provided. The property is rundown with no maintenance, the bar has weeds growing up through the floor. The pool isn’t maintained and has no sun loungers nearby.

Our room was very spacious, the matress very good. It was quiet - apart fro the sea - specially during the nigth. It's a bit remote, there are no nearby restaurants, so you have to eat always at the hotel, except you are going to town, a 20 min. ride with the tricylce.

It’s a toss up
Service was excellent. Location not so good unless you want to stay on the beachfront throughout your stay and have some peace and quiet. Charged me more until you find out the locals pay much less pesos. Special trips like to a nicer beach is even a lot more pesos. Would recommend town proper if you plan to be there anyway for island tours, food and bars.

The hotel needs MAJOR FURNISH of its physical structure, its OLD that really needs renovation. The beach view was beautiful, they shouldn't take for granted of their natural asset. THE STAFF WERE EXCELLENT! They treat you as a family & very attentive & helpfulto our needs thus, their excellent services were much more appreciated.
