Happiness Native Villa

The staff were very helpful and attentive, the pool was very nice.

We were unaware that the beach was not a swimming beach.

We stayed in Villa Happiness, which felt luxurious for us. A bit pricey compared to local level, but bigger apartment with full kitchen and fridge could be easily shared for 4 people (two different bedrooms with their own showers).

Only thing was missing was cutlery, so some extra forks, spoons and knives would make it perfect stay.

The staff of the whole Happiness complex is super nice and responsive. Nice to be able to use the pools there. Ordering food to the villa is a great option, and there is a 25% discount for breakfast. Nice big bathrooms, comfy beds.

The villa is close the street, so it was rather loud from the morning - construction sounds nearby, music from another hotel, people passing by. I wouldn't recommend it if you are sensitive to noise. The upstairs bedroom doesn't have a toilet plus the air-con is not that efficient since the upstairs is open-floor-ish. The bathrooms on both floors only have saloon type doors, which is cute, but bear that in mind if you want privacy. The wifi is patchy. The villa boasts cooking space but there is no one table for four people, only the two yellow coffee tables.

Nice family vibe with a great cafe

The accommodation was beautiful, spacious, great food in the restaurant, friendly staff. We loved the pool at the resort, potable water.

Very noisy on the outside and inside, many many many mosquitos, mosquito net was much needed and wasn’t there, impossible to sleep due to mosquito attacks, wifi only on the balcony, cockraoch.

-Spacious villa -Reliable WiFi -Attentive staff - approachable and quick in attending our requests -Quiet part of town, yet still relatively near the town center. Walking distance to a tricycle terminal. -Has access to the pool of Happiness Boutique Resort -Good food at the resort restaurant - quite pricey, but they gave a 20% discount -Provided clean drinking water, mosquito coil -Each room has a shower and a sink -Tours can be arranged at the reception

-Walls are thin - can hear conversations of people outside the villa -Room upstairs does not have its own toilet; one has to go downstairs -Low water pressure of the bathroom upstairs at times -Although the area looks peaceful, more gate padlocks and/or CCTVs may make us feel more secure

Very cozy and relaxing villa. The private garden is perfect! Some meditated in the morning and some drank wine at night in it! We were encouraged to use the pool in it's sister hotel. And also the food in the restaurant was amazing, the Moroccan fish and creamy coconut chicken were a pleasant addition to our experience. At the bar ask for Joe or Eriel. They bring great vibe to the place!

I'm so glad i took a chance on this last minute booking. When i plan my trip back to El Nido, I'm definitely booking this place again! The house itself is lovely -- the garden area and living area with open kitchen were so great for chilling together.

I wish there was more room for parking scooters, but anyway we were also allowed to park them about 80 meters up the small road; no security issues.

A charming and comfortable house that I would have easily stayed at longer if I had the chance. We made the most out of our stay and ordered room service the whole day — very delicious food from the connecting resort’s restaurant!

The only thing I wish is that the house was exactly beach front but anyway we had easy access (of less than 80 meters) to the beach for a beautiful sunset and sunrise.
