The hotel is in a perfect enclave of a cove surrounded by mountains and jungle, with beautiful flowers and even some monkeys on the trees. The reef by the hotel is rich in life and just a swim away. The hotel is conveniently located close to the big laggon and small lagoon, which are breathtaking landscapes. The staff is amazing, all very friendly and ready to help. The rooms are somewhat small but in such a beautiful setting that it feels great. Meals and tours to the lagoons are included which justifies the price.

Staff very attentive to guest and prioritize safety enjoyed the Activities . Overall rate it a 10 experience. Only negative is saw 2 snake in our walkway going to our room and it made me scared on my sorroundings and was thinking of it at night

Localización maravillosa
Todo perfecto.
Lo mejor la localización en una isla cerca de big lagoon y small lagoon.
El hotel organiza las actividades de tal manera que estamos solos, sin gente, en lugares con paisajes. espectaculares.
Ademas el snornel en la playa del hotel es increíble.
También puedes coger un kayak para ir a preciosas playas, cuando ya se han ido los tours y estar solo.

Michael
It was a great place to spend the night and be the first to see the Secret Lagoon in private and avoid the crowd. There are lots of activities and everything is included except alcohol and spa services. It's pretty quiet at night with no transport to or from the resort after 2pm and El Nido is about 45mins away by boat. All meals are served buffet style. Staff is extremely helpful and grounds are well maintained.
Donna.e
They all about getting your money and when you ask them something they act like they don’t understand English.
We were told that transports to and from the island was free but charged us for going back 200 US dollars because we left 10 min early because we had a flight to catch ....

Decent stay
The hotel had great tasting food but it was all buffer style for breafast, lunch and dinner. Views from the pool / beach was beautiful and the resort is great for families that wish to do activities like visiting the big / small lagoon etc.
One thing that we disliked was that the beach did not have chairs for us to lay by the beach and we had to lay by the pool only.

The staff at the resort made us feel welcomed and comfortable. Special shout outs to Captain Ernie, Meiko, Andy, Jon, and the bartender. Also the rest of the restaurant staff who took the time to make special dinner arrangements for our party. The resort has a great ambiance and our family made great memories there. Thank you.

Perfect vacation
We really enjoyed the Minilock Hotel. The staff is lovely. Thidy the manager, Angel the charming, and the other staff very nice. The location of the hotel is perfect and there are many free attractions, kayaks and more. In addition to all this good, there is a very long tradition of years in which the hotel staff welcome guests with singing, dancing, and smiles. As the guests leave the hotel staff escorts them to the quay and waves goodbye until the boat is gone. it's very exciting.

It's a nice cozy hotel locate at a nice island, landscape is the selling point. The daily activities organized by the hotel is a must try.
The hotel itself it's a little tired. Buffet food ok, although some are not supposed to be left in the air for long before being made, watch out if you do not have the strongest stomach.

Great location good meals lots of free activities
Beautiful snorkelling all around resort, we kayaked to deserted white sandy beaches not far from resort when all the day trippers had left or early mornings when they hadn't arrived. Free access to 2 lovely beach clubs within 30mins from resort. Very laid back atmosphere for a great relaxing vacation.

Very relaxing, they have friendly staff. Room are just ok, but the rooms are just there for sleeping. Food is ok too. There's a lot of things to do. Overall experience is very good!!!

Beautiful resort with lots of activities
Stayed June 12-15, rainy first day but still went snorkeling and kayaking at Big Lagoon and Small Lagoon, saw lots of fish, coral, even a sting ray! Island hopping in the afternoon, explored cave, snake island and Entalula beach. Next day went to Lagen resort for breakfast and swimming at pool there, kids enjoyed game room with air hockey, foosball, pool table and ping pong. Snorkeling at Lagen was okay, lots of coral but more fish at Miniloc. Don't miss feeding the \"jacks\" in the morning! Huge fish about 3 feet long! Can snorkel with them too!

This was a fantastic vacation! All activities were included and the staff made sure we always had something to do -- when we wanted it. The food was excellent! A great combination of activity, laying around, great food and great service.

Paradise
We had three nights/four days at Miniloc Island and loved every second.
Yes its expensive, but everything is included and there is heaps to do. There is the sense of exclusivity which is nice. The staff will do anything for you and always have a smile.
The activities are all well organised and organising a private lunch or dinner is a must.

Amazing experience
This Hotel can only be described as a slice of Paradise. The rooms were large, clean and comfortable. We did have one issue with our air-con not working one night, but they changed us to another room the next day and were very apologetic. The service was great, all the staff said hello everyday and did everything they could to make your stay that extra special. We were welcomed a song from all the staff and left in the same manor, with them waving us off the island until they couldn't see us any more. A good 10 minutes of singing and waving, a lovely touch! The location was magical and worth the 45 minute trip from the edge of the airport by boat. There were some other lovely touches too, like letting us have day trips to the other hotels in their chain, and supplying picnic lunches on small beach islands, all adding to an unforgeable experience. Yes it is expensive, but then like they say, You defiantly get what you pay for.. We really hope to go again in the future! Thank you for making our Honeymoon extra special.....

Way Overpriced
Outrageously overpriced given the numerous comparable options at 30-50% throughout SE Asia.

Truly Island Paradise... Relaxation at its best!
My boyfriend and I stayed for three nights (two days) after a five day island hopping excursion with Tao Philippines. It was a perfect way to end our very busy week with Tao. We were greeted by song and a refreshing tropical drink (guava juice and coconut milk, I believe). The food was very good although pricey. After reading many reviews, we went with the a la carte option for every meal, which saved us a lot of money. The buffet was about 750 pesos for breakfast, 900 pesos for lunch, and 1100 pesos for dinner (per person). We found that we were able to spend the same amount as one buffet meal for both of our a la carte options. During our two days, we took part in the island hopping tour (which included Snake Island, Cathedral Cave, and another cave) as well as the sunrise kayaking tour. Both were extremely well organized, and surprisingly very relaxed. The tour guides are very knowledgeable of the area, and were able to relay that knowledge to all of us. We especially enjoyed spotting eagle rays and black tip reef sharks on the sunrise kayaking tour! The house reef was exceptional as well--lots of coral and marine life including the gigantic Jack fish that come for feeding every morning. (And I'm saying this after snorkeling in very remote locations with Tao.) The only downfall that I have for the resort is that there really wasn't much to do at night. However, I was perfectly content to read under the cabanas and enjoy the view!

Truely Paradise on Earth!! <3
This place is a dream come true or heaven on Earth! I LOVE this resort! A little on the pricey side, but every penny spent was well worth it!
The resort was BEAUTIFUL, the staff were super friendly, food was good although a bit pricey. To save money and our bellies from bloating we ordered a la cart everyday, instead of paying for the buffets. The resorts planned plenty of activities for us and our 4 night stay was just a perfect amount of time.
Can't complain much except for the nauseating plane ride to El Nido airport. The small 18-seater unpressurized ride made me nauseous all throughout the flight, but the destination was well worth the pain. Oh and watch out for the puffer fish swimming around the Lagen Island, no one warned us, but those things are poisonous!

Superb Vacation at El Nido's Miniloc Island (boutique resort)
El Nido Miniloc was the finest island resort I've ever stayed at -- and I've been to several 4-5 star resorts in the Carribean. The staff was amazing and the scenery was stunning -- full of limestone cliffs similar to Phuket. Considering the remoteness of the location and small size (about 50 rooms) the price is a bargain considering the food and even water has to shipped in from the mainland. Free activites in hiking through the jungle on Lagen Island, sea kayaking, skin diving, and island hoping. All boats and equipment was top notch. The flight from Manila is also worth the price since it leaves from a private terminal and the airport at El Nido was built just for the resort -- small dirt strip with a water buffalo as a welcome committee. Chef Prado was a genius in the kitchen -- fixing local and international cuisine to exceed the demands of my family. Again I think the resort is stunning.

Paradise on Earth!
Starting with the way we were taken care of from El Nido Airport right up to the time we departed the whole stay was fabulous. Everything was well organised, including our excursions. Staff were very friendly,polite and always ready to accomodate our needs and wishes. Food was good, the chef even went out of his way to please us with special items.Rooms and resort always kept clean. Activities co-ordinators did a great job and went out of their way to make sure our stay there was unforgettable. The setting of the resort on
Miniloc Island is perfect for a relaxing holiday! Many things to try there if you want a jam packed holiday. Or you could just sit out on the beach and enjoy the spectacular views around you and relax!!! Get yourself a relaxing massage while looking out at the ocean!! Will definately go back if I get the chance!!

ロケーションは最高でした
のんびりとアイランドリゾートを楽しめます
バスタオルの替えも何度もくれますし、ゲストが快適に過ごせるように配慮されてます。
ただ、アラカルトメニューやドリンクが高いです
サービスは丁寧ですが、ルームキーのエラーの修理をお願いしたのに直されてなくて、もう一度頼みに行きました
アメニティは環境に配慮してるのはわかりますが、再利用できる室内履きのサンダル等を用意した方が良いと思います。
全体としてはやや割高

Pour les amateurs de snorkeling c est topissime
Nourriture parfait
Chambre un peu petite pour tatillonner

Magnifique expérience
Nous avons séjourné 4 nuits dans la chambre deluxe vue mer no 64 la dernière au bout de la jetée. Aucun vis a vis si ce n'est quelques locaux qui prennent leur bateau.
Je recommande le tour en kayak à big lagoon a 6h du mat inclus dans le prix de la chambre. Seuls dans le lagon, top. Nous avons egalement fait Small lagoon tres sympa aussi car visite l'après-midi quand les touristes partent. Les 2 sont à 5 mi. De l'hôtel. Lautre excursion comprise est un tour de 4h vers secret lagoon, une belle plage et du snorkeling cetait bien mais trop de monde sur les sites et le snorkeling est aussi joli a l'hôtel.
Devant l'hôtel très jolis coraux, etoiles de mer bleures avec de jolis poissons même s'ils ne sont pas extrêmement nombreux et tous les matins une tortue à qui ils donnent a manger.
Cote nourriture, elle est tres bonne mais le choix n'est pas immense donc sur 4 jours cela peut etre répétitif.
Côté boissons, l'hôtel n'en parle pas mais il existe un forfait boissons à 3800 peso par personne par jour donc un peu plus de 60 euros, au dela de 5 verres par jour cela vaut le coup de le prendre car les boissons sont tres chères 650 peso soit 10 euros pour une bière alors que dans les autres hotels c'est moins de 200 peso.
Le personnel de l'hôtel est tres accueillant et se plie en 4 pour vous faire plaisir
Pour résumer nous avons passé 4 jours de rêve dans un lieu idyllique, les paysages sont magnifiques

또가고 싶은 곳
일단 삼시세끼 조식 메뉴가 4일동안 매번 매일 다 다르고 맛있었습니다. 4일동안 10끼 이상 먹으면 메뉴가 겹칠 법도 한데, 다 다르더군요. 숙소도 넓고 편합니다. 다만 침대가 조금 딱딱해서 아쉬웠는데, 체크아웃하는 날 모든게 다 좋았지만 그부분은 좀 아쉬웠다고 카운터에 얘기하니 '왜 미리 얘기 안했냐고, 우리가 바꿔줬을텐데'라고 얘기하더군요. 근데 이런거 저런거 다 떠나서 여기 경치가 진짜 좋습니다. 해변도 이쁘고 뒤에 자연과 절벽, 가끔 보이는 원숭이들에 바로 앞 바다에 들어가면 보이는 거북이에 물밖에서도 물 안에서도 물고기들 한가득 보이고 밤하늘엔 별들까지 가득합니다, 그 외 간단히 즐길 레포츠들과 수영장에 휴식공간까지 어느하나 부족한거 없이 좋았습니다. 공항에서부터 전용라운지, 전용보트픽업, 투어로 전용해변, 여러 무료 투어들까지 있어서 돈이 하나도 안아까웠어요. 다음에 또 가고 싶습니다.

カップルや小さなお子さん連れなど、幅広くオススメできる高級アイランドリゾート！
2025年2月に家族で1泊しました。
モルディブのような「高級1アイランド1リゾート」方式で、島には欧米系と日本人の宿泊客しかおらず、のんびりした快適な時間を過ごせました。
食事は3食付き、アクティビティも動力を使わない系はほぼ全部無料なので、一度払っておけば島でお金の心配をしなくていいのがよかったです。
◆食事について
3食ともバイキングでそこそこ美味しかったです。
強いて言うなら、そこまで種類が多くないので3泊くらいする場合は飽きるかも？
◆アクティビティについて
桟橋の先のハウスリーフはそのままドロップオフになっており、シュノーケリングでたくさんの熱帯魚を見たり、深い海の底を覗きこんだりできます。
また、スモールラグーン、ビッグラグーンエルニド本島からのツアーAなど、様々なツアーに宿泊者は無料で参加できて、10分程度でアクセスできるので本当に便利でした。特に、早朝のビッグラグーンは一見の価値ありです。
◆部屋について
ガーデンコテージはそこまで広くないですが、外でのんびり滞在する時間が多いので、あまり気になりません。部屋もバスルームも清潔でした。
◆スタッフについて
皆親切で笑顔です。リオ港からのボート送迎から始まり、アクティビティの相談に乗ってくれたり、バスタオルをアクティビティや飲み水をいいタイミング渡してくれるなど、ホスピタリティが素晴らしいです。
最後に、気をつけることとしては
・時期によってはクラゲが出る
・アルコールが１杯500〜800ペソしてかなり高いので、お酒をたくさん飲む人は本島から持ってきたほうがいい
・出発前に、本島での合流場所を明確にメールで決めておく（私の場合は、前日までリオに泊まっていたのでリオの桟橋からボートが出ました）
くらいだと思います。
迷っていたら、ぜひ一度泊まりに来ることをお勧めします。
高い金額を払ってでまくる価値はあると思います！

Sejour dans un lieu magique avec du personnel sympatique et attentionné

Struttura molto bella e servizio impeccabile sotto tutti i punti di vista. Organizzazione perfetta. Camera (beach view) con tutti i comfort, anche se non molto grande.
Un po' care le escursioni a pagamento...di contro una sorpresa gradita quelle gratuite.

Perfeito!
Incrível, um dos melhores hotéis que já ficamos.
Lugar paradisíaco, atendimento excepcional, comida é ótima. A única parte ruim foi ir embora.

traumhaftes Inselresort mit vielen Aktivitäten
Ein wirlich traumhaftes Inselresort, mit äußerst freundlichem und höflichem Personal, sehr schönen täglichen Ausflügen zur Big Lagoon (gleich um die Ecker), zur Small Laggon, zur Secret Lagoon (beide auch auf Miniloc Island), Schnorcheln vor Shimizu Island und Baden am Traumstrand von Entalula Island. All diese Ausflüge sind im Zimmerpreis inklusive. Das Resort verleiht auch gratis Kajaks und Schnorchelausrüstung. Im Hausriff vor dem Resort haben wir beim Schnorcheln eine Schildkröte und eine Seeanemone mit darin lebenden Clownfischen gefunden. Wenn man Glück hat sieht man im Resort auch eine Makakenbande und einen Varan. 5 Tage im Paradies.
