Las Cabanas Beach Resort

We stayed at Las Cabanas Resort for three nights and truly loved the experience. The listing description is very accurate, and the location is absolutely beautiful. The resort is right in front of the beach, with a lovely pool area and comfortable lounges where you can relax and enjoy the view. The food is really fresh and excellent, and we enjoyed every meal we had there. Our room was very clean, well organized, and the air conditioning worked perfectly, which made our stay very comfortable. The service was also excellent — the staff were friendly, attentive, and always willing to help. There are just a couple of small suggestions that could make the experience even better. One of them would be accepting card payments. Currently, only cash is accepted, and because the resort is a bit far, it requires a long walk to reach any ATM, which can be a little inconvenient. Another detail is that the hotel works with a pay-as-you-go system, meaning there is no option to add expenses to a room tab and pay everything at checkout. Having a guest account or room charge system could make things easier for guests during their stay. Also, the walk to reach the resort is a bit long, but once you arrive, the beauty of the place definitely makes it worth it. Overall, we had a wonderful stay and would definitely come back. Thank you for the care and attention during our visit.

We were very happy with our choice to stay here. Communication was good to arrange for the porters to meet us and carry our bags - thanks guys! Location is about 8mins from the road through a cute mall with cafes and shops, then along the beach. It's nice and quiet, gorgeous views and well kept. The shower works well, room is spacious, aircon works well, beds comfy and so quiet. We hsve the beachfront room which is pefect with. Little deck and counch to chill. Breakfast is a buffet and tasty. Staff are very attentive and helpful. Thanks team! Along the beach are a number of cool bars, cafes and shops so you dont have to go far. You can swim at the beach and its right under the zip line. It's easy to get a tricycle to el nido or corong corong and we are happy to have chosen to stay here.

We had an amazing stay at this resort on Las Cabañas Beach. Everything was simply perfect the rooms were modern, spacious, and spotless, with a stunning view that you never get tired of. The whole place has a relaxed, beachy vibe that instantly puts you in holiday mode. The location is unbeatable: right on one of the most beautiful beaches in El Nido, with incredible sunsets and easy access to great restaurants and cafes. The staff were always friendly, helpful, and genuinely welcoming, which made the stay even better. Overall, a fantastic experience peaceful, stylish, and the ideal spot to enjoy El Nido. Highly recommended

Excellent hotel. The staff was very helpful and the service was excellent. The view from the hotel is great. You can walk right into the beach. You need to walk for 10 mins from the main road to reach the hotel. But they will help you carry the luggage - so won't be a major issue. We stayed in the beach facing room which was really cool. The hotel is a bit old. Some of the fittings might look ancient but it serves the purpose anyday. Food was not great but doable. There are other cafes nearby at walking distance if you want to explore. Overall , if you are looking for a comfortable, quiet stay with a great beach view , I would definitely recommend this.

The staff was very helpful from the outset and very well spoken. Rooms were great, just a few steps from the beach. They book tours and even arrange for pickup right at the beach. Only problem is the access to the hotel is quite a long walk of about 10 mins. Breakfast can be better.

An unforgettable stay at a truly exceptional hotel! From the moment we arrived, we were charmed by the warm and friendly atmosphere of the place. The staff are simply amazing — welcoming, always smiling, attentive, and highly professional. You can really feel that they love what they do and that they genuinely care about making your stay as enjoyable as possible. The hotel is perfectly located, just a short walk from the beaches and some of the best local restaurants. It’s the ideal spot to relax, soak up the sun, and admire stunning sunsets. The setting is calm and peaceful — perfect for couples, families, or friends looking for a relaxing getaway. The hotel’s restaurant deserves a special mention: the food is delicious, beautifully presented, and made with fresh ingredients. Breakfast is generous and varied — there’s something for everyone, and it’s a real treat every morning. We also loved the boat excursions offered by the hotel — such a great way to explore the area from a different perspective! In short: a beautiful place, excellent service, a fantastic team, and an atmosphere that makes you want to come back again and again. We can’t recommend this hotel highly enough! 🌅✨

A boutique resort that caters to smaller crowds. Has 4 Oceanside cabanas each with 2 beds. There are 2 larger rooms behind in a garden area around that can support larger families. Resort is public so all use pool & sun-bed areas. Great spot to stop & watch sun rise or set. We stayed a week and there is walk of about 15 mins from the mall to get here. Seems other reviewers were unprepared for this walk even though all of our bookings made it crystal clear there was a long walk. You're on an island & it's not a five star resort. No water is potable on Palawan so expect to bring your own. If you want all inclusive five star amenities stay inland or go spend the money at one of the price island resorts nearby, but if you want decent prices, great food & friendly service this is the place for you.

We stayed at Las Cabañas Resort for six nights (two bookings: 2 nights + 4 nights). Let me be clear: the location is gorgeous — warm, swimmable water, a nice pool — and some staff, especially Mr Jojo, were genuinely helpful. The workers who assisted with our luggage made our arrival possible; without them, carrying bags over the sand would have been nearly impossible. I tipped them, but the fact that this assistance was essentially mandatory already highlights poor planning.||Unfortunately, almost everything else about this resort fell far short of reasonable expectations:| • Access & evenings: Expect a 10–15 minute walk, mostly through sand. Evenings are dead quiet — this is a family beach, not a nightlife area — and poorly lit. Anyone not aware will be unpleasantly surprised.| • Cash-only & excessive deposits: Every small item required a deposit (towels, keys, etc.). For a resort booked through reputable platforms, this level of mistrust is absurd. Reclaiming a 500-peso towel deposit took nearly 10 minutes and involved being questioned as to whether I was a guest.| • Guest verification & walk-ins: On multiple occasions, while simply sitting on the beach, I was asked to prove I was a guest. Meanwhile, walk-in visitors regularly use the facilities and take beach beds, leaving paying guests without space.| • Wedding / blocked access: A wedding took over parts of the resort during our stay, and no prior notice was given. With such a small resort, this was highly disruptive.| • Laundry disaster: Paid laundry returned our clothes stained. This is not a minor issue — personal property was damaged — and nothing was offered to resolve it. This is unacceptable.| • Water pressure: Weak showers made daily use frustrating.| • Health / emergency response: My brother became ill during a tour (not caused by the resort). Staff offered only tea; we had to locate a pharmacy and seek medical help ourselves. A resort of this type should have proper training and guidance for health incidents.| • Pricing & services: On-site food and massage services are noticeably more expensive than nearby alternatives.| • Breakfast: Fine, but adding cheese and yogurt would make a meaningful improvement.||The resort has potential, but the repeated failure to handle basic guest needs and repair damages is astounding. After reviewing past public replies from the ownership, there is a clear pattern: polite acknowledgments, vague promises to “do better,” but no real solutions for affected guests.||For anyone reading this, note that the resort is beautiful but runs on unprofessional systems, poor communication, and a lack of accountability. Any response from ownership that does not actively address these unresolved issues and make things right for guests who experienced actual loss or damage will only reinforce the pattern of negligence.||We expected a resort-level experience. Instead, we left frustrated, inconvenienced, and with property damaged. Future guests deserve clarity and assurance that the problems we encountered will be properly corrected.

We came here for dinner. The food was quite good and came out piping hot. I can recommend their spicy squid, beef soup, and vegetable plate. The outdoor seating is beautiful but may not be ideal during summer months due to intermittent rain. They have a full bar. Menus in English so you can navigate the various items offered. Don't forget to walk vanilla beach!

Overpriced for the services that they provide - including the beach front view. Here's why: NO A/C - if you're from a country like the U.S. Or somewhere relatively cold, be prepared to take the heat and humidity at full force. The hotel does NOT have A/C. Only fans. NO WIFI - yup. NO HOT WATER OPTION - The water is cold. Really cold. FOOD TASTE AND QUALITY LACKING - for the price they are asking, it's extremely lacking in taste and quality. Filipino dishes are really cheap, like $100 for breakfast. This place charges triple the price but the tastes doesn't follow the hike. It's actually the inverse and it is severely lacking. NO BUSINESS PHONE NUMBER & SLOW TO REPLY EMAIL - we needed to contact someone to help us with out heavy luggages and they only had email, which we had trouble with because of the extremely choppy internet they have in the philippines. We had a family member email them but never replied. FAR FROM MAIN ROAD AND NO BELL BOY TO CARRY LUGGAGES FOR A 15 MINUTE SAND WALK - if you're carrying a stroller luggage GOOD LUCK. the hotel is a 15 minute walk from the main road. 100 steps down a set of stairs and 10 minute walk on sand. Not even joking. It's literally an unpleasant hike. NO 24 HOUR PERSONNEL - the entire staff except the security guards leave at 10 and you're stranded till 7 a.m. GREAT VIEW, BUT DIRTY BEACH - the hotel is next to a "river" yeah.... That's not just a river. It's sewage. Don't play in the water. PRICE - for about $100 a night, i don't see where the money is going to but straight to the owner'a pockets. There's no WiFi, no A/C, no bell boy service, no telephone, no effective management, no great chef / good tasting food. The view is nice but if you're not enjoying your stay, then why would one stay here.... VIEW - it's nice, but read the previous first....
