Miniloc Island Mountain Holidays

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

Breakfast buffet was delicious. Chef made homemade Filipino breakfast. Staff were very attentive from receptionist to drivers. Csmn goes above and beyond in the house restaurant. Erika gave an amazing Hilot massage. Maintenance staff responded right away when there were technical problems with the AC and safe box. Love the happy hour at the pier with spectacular view of the bay. There was construction in many areas of the resort hence I took off one star for cleanliness of the property.

We had a couple of minor issues here, no wakeup call, which we'd booked for an early start tour and a lack of communication from hotel about the tour cancellation. They should have advised tour cancelled when we came down to breakfast and at a minimum, put a notice advising guests in reception, lifts, under guests door etc. Pool area was nice and drinks at happy hour are great value, 2 cocktails for about 200php. Beds are very comfy, but as noted by other guests, room smelt damp and mouldy. There is evidence of damp and mould on 3rd floor corridor ceiling. Massages are great here on 5th floor and good value. Aside from Robinsons there's not really anywhere you can walk to. We used to get the Jeepneys downtown to go out for food and drink, about 12-15 php per person one way, though it could be a challenge to get a Jeepneys back, they were often very full. Hotel staff and manager Karen are all lovely. We had to extend our stay a few times, first as river tour was cancelled, then because of typhoon kalmaegi. But Karen was very accommodating, letting us stay in same room. This place could be something very special with a few tweaks. For example at breakfast my eggs on 2 occasions weren't cooked as requested ( poached, well done) or mistakenly given to other guests... Solution have table numbers and slips of paper with tick boxes for type of eggs you want and how you want them cooked, with ingredients list too, omlettes, well done, ham, egg, cheese etc.

Excellent location with incredible views of the water and islands! Hotel staff were amazing and very helpful as well.

Everything you need and more will be taken care of! From transportation from the airport to excursions and activities included. The staff are always extremely friendly and helpful, they made my first trip to the Philippines and El Nido the best experience possible I'll definitely be making my way back here to stay longer.
