"We were in 3 places at el Nido, this was the most expensive and worst of all of them."

The views

Not worth it. Almost no water to shower, no wifi, trying to overcharge at checkout…

"Overall, we loved many aspects of our stay, particularly the stunning beach view from the Lodge especially and the free"

10.0

We stayed in the Jungle Lodge at Karuna El Nido (2 adults and 2 kids), and the property was immaculately maintained throughout our visit and a spectacular deck/view over the beach. The room was comfortable, and the air conditioning worked reliably—much appreciated on the humid days. Service was excellent. Ali at reception was incredibly accommodating, and having a dedicated WhatsApp chat for each room made everything effortless. We could message reception to arrange a shuttle to Town Square and request pickup when we were ready; even on short notice, the wait was usually only about 15 minutes. Also handy to organise massages. The on-site restaurant served delicious food, though dishes didn’t always arrive at the same time. We were catching a transfer and experienced a bit of a delay, so if you’re dining as a group, it’s worth allowing an extra 30 minutes. I was initially hesitant about ordering drinks with ice, but they use filtered water and have their own ice machine, which put me at ease. Happy Hour from 4–6pm was a highlight—great cocktails and a lovely atmosphere. The pool was refreshing and offered a beautiful vantage point for watching the sunset. Overall, we had a wonderful stay and would happily return.

The main things to be aware of are the stairs, the water, and the Wi‑Fi. There are quite a lot of stairs throughout the property, though we ended up treating them as our daily exercise—especially after enjoying the restaurant’s food. We also had mostly cold showers with low water pressure; some hot water would eventually come through, but usually not until the third shower. Given the location, it wasn’t entirely unexpected, but still something to note. Wi‑Fi in the Jungle Lodge didn’t work for us, which we’d seen mentioned in another review. It didn’t bother us too much since we had the Tourist 80GB Globe call/data eSIM, and the Wi‑Fi at the restaurant worked well whenever we needed to connect.

"Standort Mega, alles andere leider nicht"

5.0

Ein atemberaubender Ausblick aufs Meer von der Terrasse und auch aus dem Bett durch die Riesen Fenster , oder besser gesagt durch die Wände aus Glass.

Das Konzept habe ich irgendwie nicht 100% verstanden . Es gibt Karuna Villas und es gibt Karuna Glamping zu dem diese Jungle Lodge auch gehört. Alles befindet sich auf der gleichen Anlage, man nutzt dieselbe Rezeption die selbe SPA, das Restaurant den Pool etc. Der Transfer zum Flughafen aber vom gleichen Standort für die Karuna Villas Kunden für 2 Personen 1.200 PHP wir müssten aber dann 2.500PHP zahlen. Erklären konnte mir das keiner. Kommunikation mit der Rezeption läuft über WhatsApp. Die Reaktionszeiten sind sehr unterschiedlich. Sonst war die Rezeption beim einchecken total überfordert. Viel los , wenig Personal, wir fühlten uns nicht wirklich willkommen. Der Wasserdruck in der Dusche war sehr schlecht. Eine Regulierung der Wassertemperatur nicht möglich. Die Tür zwischen den Zimmer und dem Bad konnte man nicht schließen. Wenn der Einfluss auf den Wasserdruck nicht möglich ist konnte ich noch verstehen, aber warum man die Tür nach unseren Hinweisen nicht repariert hat, nicht. Das Essen im Restaurant ist nur ein Durchschnitt. Fahren Sie einfach runter zum Mahagoni Beach Bar & Restaurant ( von einem Franzosen geführt) dort ist das essen deutlich besser. Nach dem wir schon ausgeheckt hatten erreichte mich eine komische Nachricht vom Hotel mit der Entschuldigung dass meine Kreditkarte doppelt belastet wurde. Kann ja mal auch ein Fehler passieren dachte ich mir und nachgefragt was die jetzt von mir noch benötigen. Keine Reaktion aber mehr vom Hotel. Fand ich sehr komisch

The view was amazing!! The free transfers into town were so helpful! And we loved being able to book tours to make life easier. Included breakfast was an added bonus and we loved being a little out of town away from the hustle and bustle. And the bed was SO comfy!

It was interesting experience.

The breakfast is poor, you can choose just dish from a list and they want to charge extra for kids breakfasts although I booked the room for 2A and 2C and it says breakfast included.
