A Hidden Gem of Tranquility and Charm! Carpe Diem Villa and Resort is a true oasis in Puerto Princesa! From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by the peaceful, Balinese-inspired atmosphere, surrounded by lush greenery and elegant sculptures. The rooms are spotless, beautifully designed, and well-equipped — we especially loved the private pool access, which made the stay feel extra luxurious. The staff were warm, welcoming, and incredibly helpful. They went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable, even helping us plan local tours and arranging transport when needed. The main pool area is stunning and well-maintained — perfect for lounging with a drink from the poolside bar. Dining at their restaurant was a delightful surprise. The fusion of French and Filipino flavors made for a unique and satisfying experience, though we would have appreciated a bit more variety in the breakfast options. While the resort is tucked away from the main town, it’s a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle. Just be prepared to arrange transportation if you plan to explore more of the city. Overall, Carpe Diem is the perfect mix of comfort, relaxation, and attentive service. We’re already planning our next visit! Rating: 4.7/5

The resort has lots to offer on a reasonable price. It is worth it to include breakfast buffet with the room booking

Daluyon is a beautiful beachfront resort, I love that they have kayaking and paddleboarding available for guests which we enjoyed . The breakfast is inclusive and it was delicious, service was warm and exceptional. We enjoyed our dinner at the beach and the strawberry mojito was delicious. Booking our tours was very efficient and easy, front desk is very attentive. Laundry service is also available so we did not have to pack wet clothes. The Filipino massage was very good and just what I needed to ease some tensed muscles. Daluyon is a beautiful beachfront resort with exceptional service and staff. It’s also located very close to the world famous Underground River, sadly our tour was cancelled due to some bad weather, I guess this gives us some good reason to come back, thank you Daluyon staff for such wonderful service!

We stayed here for 5 nights during our stay in Coron. The rooms were spacious and for the most part clean, though keep in mind that it is a different experience than a traditional hotel. The staff were great and helpful, they do give free water and breakfast, which helped us out a lot. My only complaint and which is why I knocked down a star was the tour agency that operates in front of the hotel. I think she also does work for Nomad Yurts? She was hounding us to book a tour during our stay. We already had a tour booked on our first day though we did want another tour, so we ended up booking with SunZu tour anyways. The tour agency lady was super nice to us prior to booking, however, once we paid and she got our money, we were completely ignored. No more Hellos or Good Morning once she got our money which rubbed me the wrong way and made me feel like a walking ATM. Upon checking out, I did wave to say Goodbye, but it was like she didn’t notice us. She will be kind to you until you’ve booked and given her money for the tour. I’d recommend booking a tour online or walk into Town for other tour agencies with better pricing

Great place for a retreat. Topnotch service. The resort is amazing.

Beautiful property! Great service! Great amenities! Serene and peaceful here ;) thanks for a wonderful vacation!

This is a beautiful place within 10-15 mins boat ride from the lagoons. The accommodation is spacious and tastefully decorated. The only complaint was a bit of rain coming through the roof at times of heavy rain. Staff cannot be more accommodating, friendly and attentive, making guests feel welcome and right at home. They offer quite a few inclusive excursions to nearby attractions, which is very nice. Food in the restaurant is a bit dear for the Philippines but the taste and quality is excellent. Ideal stay for 3-5 days to explore the beautiful nature around El Nido.

One of the best resorts in El Nido
