What was lacking in the actual facility (see below) was made up for by the incredible staff at Stunning Republic BR. Booking transportation and day excursions was a breeze, and the breakfast was top-notch (both Filipino and American Style). You order from a menu but can mix and match. Typhoon “Tito” hit El Nido when I was there. I can’t think of a better place to weather the storm - the building was solid, staff were always conscious of guests’ safety and comfort, everyone was updated on storm conditions, flights, etc. In the midst of heavy winds and rain, the staff made breakfast and hand delivered it (running across the open area in poncho’s) to residents. The pot of coffee was no small task since the power was out! After the typhoon passed, staff cleared fallen trees, debris, broken glass immediately. In the evening, they prepared a special meal for guests with food provided to them - it’s a breakfast only resort but most restaurants were closed. SRBR is a dated resort with basic amenities. My second floor room had a great ocean view and balcony. The dining area is covered but open air and has fabulous sunset views. The beach is very small. The area around the hotel is safe - a short walk to many restaurants, massage, tour bookings and shops. The rooms - our group had three - were dated, run-down furniture, comfortable beds, and everything worked (shower, tv, plugs). I missed having a small fridge and hair dryer. Many thanks to the staff for EVERYTHING !!

The world was very very small. There was no place to hang clothing in no drawers. I had no bedside lamps and only fluorescent lights in the ceiling. The pictures and listing are not accurate. They certainly did not have free seaside cabanas or gardens. There were only three lounge chairs and beach in front of the hotel.The towels were stained with bleach. There was no shelf in the bathroom to put anything. There was no security and the public could walk through the center of the hotel from the beach to the street. The one thing going for it was that it was right on the beach where you could see beautiful sunsets. The breakfast was included and it wasn't too bad. Also it was relatively inexpensive at $58 us.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Stunning Republic, and I can't recommend it enough for beach lovers! Located just 20 feet from the sandy shores, this hotel is perfect for anyone looking to soak up the sun and enjoy the ocean.

From the moment I arrived, the friendly staff made me feel at home. The check-in process was quick, and I was immediately captivated by the stunning view from my room. With a private balcony overlooking the beach, I could enjoy the sound of the waves and the salty breeze without even leaving my space.

The accommodations were clean, comfortable, and well-appointed, featuring modern amenities and cozy decor.

One of the highlights of my trip was the easy access to the beach. It was just a short stroll down a charming path, allowing me to spend my days sunbathing, swimming, and exploring.

Breakfast by the ocean was a standout, featuring fresh pastries and local fruits.

Overall, this is a hidden gem for anyone seeking a beach getaway. The convenient location, friendly service, and quality accommodations make it an ideal choice for a relaxing vacation.

The Property is fairly well maintained. The room was clean and the food was good in the mornings. The staff went above and beyond my expectations and were easily available. They we're able to book all of my outings directly from the hotel. Therefore, save yourself some money and time and let the hotel do all your bookings and transportation needs. Trikes were only a hundred pesos back and forth to town and were easily accessible.
I would recommend this resort, but be very specific on the room type that you want to stay.
One last thought is that the beach is off the beaten path, which makes walking on the beach peaceful as compared to staying downtown El Nido.

The location right on the beach is a plus, but the amenities of the hotel are very dated, and its condition is less than good. Service at the hotel and the restaurant is less than good, and we had trouble with the toilet that was eventually fixed, but took some time. The door locks are rather antiquated. With more time to work with I would try to select another place to stay when returning.

We didn’t stay anywhere else in El Nido so can’t compare, but generally speaking I felt like this accommodation was too expensive for what it was. The rooms are outdated but clean, very basic. Breakfast was a loaf of bread with jam and butter and instant coffee. It was also noisy (that’s just how it is by the road!) but just be aware and have earplugs handy. The trike ride into the downtown El Nido was 100 pesos. The hotel has beachfront access which was very nice. We also didn’t have any issues with power outages and the water was hot. Also, the staff were very helpful and friendly.

This is an excellent place to stay for inexpensive option. Amazing beach view directly in front of property, excellent food and drink options, and very friendly staff. They do charge extra for AC in room, 400 pesos, but was worth it. The area surrounding is less touristy then other locations in Palawan, although a bit out of the way. Highly recommend this hotel and will stay for longer next time. Great place to relax, and excellent value for money

As the name says, this property has an absolutely stunning view of Corong Corong beach in El Nido and the sunsets seen from our room (#10) could not be beat! This was one of the quieter beaches in El Nido (perfect for us!) but in a convenient location, with an easy 10 minute tricycle ride away from Vanilla Beach or El Nido town proper.

Fabulous Stay!

Randomly booked this hotel last minute and wound up falling in love! We took a peak at some of the other hotels near by and they definitely don’t compare! Beautiful views, lovely staff, and nice amenities. WiFi was spotty in room but consistent in common areas. We also loved that the area and this hotel were going more eco friendly, just wished there were more bins around. Staff were very attentive and accommodating, allowing us a late check out so we could shower before our long trek back to the city for our flight. Close to restaurants and markets (walking) and a quick tricycle ride to El Nido city. Convenient for island hopping tours and protected beaches as well!

Hotel was nice. Staff were ok. This hotel is on the beach but during low tide, you cannot swim. You would need to walk out far. Also, because of this, the nice boats they have in the pictures are not operating. This was a disappointment as we were hoping to island hop from our hotel. The pictures were misleading!

Nice location in the central Corong Corong

The hotel is near the main road to El Nido It's 50 PHP ride per person with tricycle to the city and short walk to restaurant around. Stuff are really kind.

The room is spacious with great water pressure, nice balcony and lots of sitting places plus extra sofa. However no refrigerator and the bed is extra soft so it could be a problem.

I will say that the door need to be replace you can hear the traffic as it comes and chickens in the morning.
Also they should put a net againsts mosquitos in the bathroom.

The restaurant prices are cheap, food is average but sometimes they serve it under cooked.

The facilities looks nice I think they are still under renovations - it didn't bother us.

The WiFi connection is very POOR and slow. Works only in the restaurant area and rooms near it.

Overall it's a nice place with lots of potential.

So so

The rooms on the left side of the resort are right next to someone’s “hut” who has roosters that crow nonstop. Nonstop. The door to my room was basically worthless as it had cracks and wasn’t insulated from sound or bugs. I didn’t sleep a full night the entire time I was there for 4 nights. The staff is nice enough but not as friendly as in Puerto Princesa. The resort itself has nice outdoor area but you can’t swim in the water/beach at the resort bc it’s the bay and polluted/bacteria. You need to take a tricycle or scooter to other beach areas to be ae to swim. The location otherwise was fine but took 10 mins by teycykce to get into town. All in all I was disappointed for how much I spent, wouldn’t return.

Breakfast was very poor. We asked for an omelet, it was very greasy and over cooked.

Never Again - Way too exspensive for what you get

We stayed there for four nights. During our whole stay they ran out of every kind of fruit but mango. Although the menu said you could choose between different fruit juices and pancacke toppings. Futhermore, the restaurant was ment to serve food until 9 o‘clock, but when we wanted to order something at 20.30 the kitchen was alteady closed.

The staff was not as friendly as we experienced it everywhere else in the philippines. It seemed that they were not well trained and couldn’t really help with inquiries.

Last but not least our toilet was broken. Although we told them on the first day, they were not able to fix it during our stay. So we had to stand a really bad smell in our room and had to kept the windows open 24/7 what was really bad regarding the mosquitoes.

Overall this hotel is neither stunning nor worth the money.

It will be nice when it's done maybe 6 more months, but for now I would not stay here. 100 workers, all day long working 20 feet from you, it was like living in a construction site. kinda sucked.

Très bien situé en bord de plage ! Le petit déjeuner est excellent et le personnel très sympathique. Le coucher de soleil est magnifique et le bars propose des tarifs honnêtes.
Néanmoins, l'état du bâtiment est usé. Nous avions une chambre très proche de la route principale (ce qui doit être le cas de la très grande majorité des établissements) et c'était assez bruyant. Nous avons check out de nuit pour prendre un avion, il était convenu que je récupère le petit déjeuner mais je n'ai pas trouvé le gardien de nuit ! J'ai envoyé un message demandant un remboursement mais aucune réponse ! Au global, correct mais sans plus.

Viel zu teuer und schlechtes Service

Für den hohen Preis eine absolute Frechheit. Wir haben uns nicht wohl gefühlt und waren froh als wir ausgecheckt haben. Das Personal ist unfreundlich und inkompetent, das Vormittagspersonal und das Nachmittagspersonal macht keine Übergabe, das heisst Informationen werden nicht weitergegeben. Das Zimmer ist sehr basic und das Bad ist sehr unhygienisch und alt - bei dem Preis erwarten man mehr. Im Aussenbereich wo das Frühstück serviert wird, werden Strassenhunde gefüttert, das heisst es laufen überall Hunde herum. Auf dem Balkon gab es weder Tisch noch Sessel.
