Lime Resort El Nido

Het uitzicht

Niet alles was even goed schoon (maar vies was het nou ook zeker niet hoor)

I like the infinity pool and sunset. Food at the bar is nice as well.

Some moulds in the toilet. Some staff might be tired or too used of the amount of guests already and they seldom smile or greet guests anymore that is expected from a Filipino hospitality. Savoy hotel Manila is the standard. Lovey staff even during busy hour.

We had an overall pleasant family stay at Lime Resort El Nido. A free upgrade on arrival for one of our rooms was very well received, and having breakfast included made the first meal of the day easy to organise for our group. While the breakfast was not as impressive as the buffet at Lime Resort Manila, there was always something available. The hotel is located in Corong-Corong, which means you either need to use the free shuttle, which at the time of our stay ran three times daily, or take a tricycle to El Nido Proper. The tricycle cost around PHP 150 each way and the journey took approximately 15 minutes. For us, this worked well, as it meant we could enjoy El Nido Proper without having to stay in the town itself, which can be very busy. The hotel is in a quiet location, which we really enjoyed, although neighbouring properties do share access near the hotel. Much like other Lime Resorts, there is a comprehensive food and beverage offering throughout the day, which is fantastic if you have been on a tour all day and just want room service. Overall, the staff were attentive and friendly, although often busy. My family enjoyed their stay and made good use of the free ice cream and popcorn.

Having worked in hospitality for 10 years, my general observations are more “nit-picking” than major complaints. However, despite being a newer hotel, some areas would benefit from more active maintenance. This was particularly noticeable around the pool, where there were missing tiles, sharp tile edges, and detached electrical lighting. Our room also had some minor maintenance issues, including lifting flooring and a loose glass panel in the sliding balcony door. None of this stopped us from enjoying the hotel or our holiday, but these are areas that should be addressed. Access to the hotel is via a single-track paved road with a gradient, which is not the easiest with children and luggage, especially if transport drops you at the top of the road. Lime Resort is good at making clear whether a room has a mountain or sea view, but there is also effectively a third type of view overlooking neighbouring properties, where in some cases people may be able to see directly into your room. Breakfast could be a little hit and miss depending on what was being served, and the labels did not always match the contents of the chafing dishes. That said, the food quality was generally good and on par with what we have experienced elsewhere in the Philippines. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would recommend the hotel, particularly for families who want to be close enough to El Nido Proper while staying somewhere quieter.

Super vriendelijk personeel, top service. Heel mooi, schoon hotel met een prachtig zwembad. Lekker ontbijt. Voor herhaling vatbaar.

De housekeeping kwam wat laat, maar na een belletje naar de receptie kwamen ze gelijk! Wederom top service.
