CED Garden

such an awesome location! beautiful view, quiet, beautiful, clean, beautiful... etc! staff was communicative. we really had no problems at all.

Very beautiful place and great view

Far from everything, the water in shower very poor, you get nothing more then room and everything is with extra charge and above all 130 stairs to room that nowhere mention before and no help to carry our lagguge upstairs as we came late at night( and tell them before) The place is very beautiful but you get the feeling that you are not very wellcome

This location is a little out of the from the main thoroughfare but provides attentive staff and cleanliness. Unfortunately we had to content with a clogged bathroom sink from the very start. Coronado was very helpful in trying to fix this problem.

Hot water

150 steps to get to the room, no food service, no porters to carry luggage, on street parking, A/C not working installed one foot above the ground attic room can only get out of bed in one side and urinate sitting down or hit you head on the ceiling , no screens on the Sala window, barking dogs at night and road noise. It was like a jail since we could not go up and down to eat. Wife is PWD disabled and can’t do stairs. Had to change hotel. Manager said we could either check out then or tomorrow. We asked if we could get a refund and he said it will take 7 days. Checked out the next day and sent a secure message for refund as discussed for 2 unused days. Manager stopped responding. Had to go back to hotel and ring the bell after 3 days to get him to come out at which point he denied having said a refund is possible are referring us to terms on website. In business two things are important, your word and integrity .This establishment has neither. Found a much better hotel on the other side of the street with restaurant, pool, bar and outside sitting with working AC for 1/3 the price. Keep the two days rent, we won double that back in a. cockfight the next day. Excerpts of exchange with manager attached.

Great views and Conrado very helpful

It was scenic and quiet but thats about it.

I debated a while to write this but I think its important for you to advertise what you're giving to your potential guests. This accomodation benefits those who enjoy the quiet and peace of nature away from the hustle of el nido town. However, note to those that dont want this. It is VERY far from the actual town which you will frequent. It is at least a 350 peso trip one way which you will need to do constantly. Additionally, there is no lights at all during the night so finding our accomdation past sundown will be problematic. The room i was given, was at the very top of this jungle, give or take 200 steep steps up. Staff dont really exist on the premises, its difficult to find anyone to talk too to voice your questions/opinions. Now comes the real issue with this place. I booked for a week, and i stayed 1 night. 2 BIG issues with this place. 1) The sheer amount of bugs that infest your room at night and bite you constantly. You think with a room in the literal jungle you would at least have a mosquito net. When you go into the room you can literally see the ceiling marked EVERYWHERE with squished bugs from previous tenants. I asked the manager why there wasnt a net, he goes "Oh sir, there was a net but the previous tennant removed it". My friend, i am a new guest, why did you not put it back?? It was because of the sheer amount of insects i could not choose to stay another night. 2) The lack of any running water, the shower is non-existent, water would trickle out , you could not shower if you wanted too. When i asked the manager , his response was verbatim 'Because gravity sir, your room is at the top of the hill water cannot go up" - my good friend that is NOT an excuse, pumps exist, modern day engineering exists... After my first night, i chose to hotel hop within the city centre, the issue is that this place is no cheap either, i incurred quite a significant costly loss staying here.

lovely, authentic place located in beautiful nature surroundings on the top of the hill (mind there are a lot of steps to get up there, although worth it). Walkable distance (1 km ) from the Vanilla beach , were all main amenities such as ATM, shops and restaurants are available. Overall great place and definitely would recommend it.
