The staff service is unquestionable. Everyone is friendly and hospitable. The rooms are clean and pleasing to the eye. Staffs are very attentive to guests needs and can be messaged 24/7.The road going from and to the property is not the most pleasant but they provide 24/7 transport which really helps. The property is very quiet and relaxing. If you need a place to relax, unwind and just enjoy silence, I recommend this resort!
This is an amazing property. Breakfast was very good made to order. The Staff here are so lovely making sure you have a nice stay. Housekeeping is impeccable. It has a nice view although there isn’t really a beach but it’s just a 20 minute tricycle ride to vanilla beach for wonderful sunsets. I would definitely recommend Caldao Resort
Simply incredible! The beach front cottage is top tier best place we have ever stay (and we travel constantly). Staff was amazing, food was epic, and the view… once in a lifetime!
A beautiful, quiet oasis very close to town. Staff was very attentive and welcoming. Right on the water, gorgeous views. The pools were great. We absolutely loved our stay here, highly recommend it.
I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Cadlao, the staff were so friendly and everyone looked after me and made me feel very welcome. They assisted with carrying my luggage and booking an airport driver, and they were very responsive on WhatsApp which made me feel safe in case I was out and about and needed assistance. There is also a tuk-tuk that takes you from the hotel into town and back which was great!
It was quiet and peaceful at Cadlao and the beds were really comfortable, and the shower water was always warm. The only thing I would have enjoyed that the room didn’t include was a mini fridge to keep my food and drinks refrigerated.
The complimentary tea-time and cake at 4pm and then happy hour at 5-6pm was lovely as well. I would love to come stay here in the future!
The best resort in El Nido. Excellent service. Delicious food. Location is walkable to all the good restaurants. Great staff!!’ We had a fabulous vacation for Father’s Day 2025
Wonderful stay! Peaceful and serene. Away from busy town center. Three pools and SPA were nice to enjoy. Best of all was the views and the restaurant. Buffet breakfast and ala carte ordering were complimentary and provided an excellent choice of local foods and western dishes. Fresh healthy shots, juices and shakes were super delicious. Staff were friendly and made our room each day. Across the street was the tour company recommended and tour A with Albert was excellent!!! Town center was a complimentary tuk tuk ride away. Hotel transport to and from airport is available for a small charge. We beach hopped around the island by tuk tuk. Overall a wonderful stay and highly recommend! Thank you for an excellent, relaxing stay.
Staff are great! They are friendly and very helpful. Restaurant staff are too, especially Francis. Thanks to all! Will definitely recommend to my friends 🙂
Cadlao is a gorgeous hotel! Staff are friendly and so helpful! They Help with planning and organizing day. The Food, drinks and service at restaurant are fantastic! Front desk was so helpful with check
Out and leaving luggage! They have a free tuk tuk for transportation to el nido town! Wish we could have stayed here longer!!
A beautiful well taken care off small resort just outside nido town. We had a fantastic stay in a calm and relaxing setting. Stand outs were the staff. The free tuk tuk service was very reliable (it's also a nice 15 mins walk on the beach into town (at lower tide). Happy hour with beautiful sunset views, great food at th restaurant, fantastic massages at the spa. Wifi worked well and rooms while not very large were well designed. Only small niggle - there was no conditioner provided.
We would come back and highly recommend the place!
The staff is very friendly and welcoming, always go extramile to help you. The sunset from the hotel pool is amazing. The Hotel rooms are beautiful and the garden is well maintained.
