Fabregas Beach Cottage — Hotel in El Nido

We stayed here for 2 nights. 6 adults and 3 kids ages 6,7 & 11. No complementary breakfast but it's ok because the place ia very cheap. I booked the place from AirBnB for 7500 but I only paid 5k because I have voucher from AirBnB. The staff, Jecille always reply to my queries any time of day and Emily are very accomodating and friendly, they provide us extra bed on our 2nd night, normally it will cost 500 per night for extra bed, but since they are really kind, it's free. They provide free use of clean towels. The shower is warm enough and water supply is good. Just buy your own drinking water coz they don't have it. The only issue is fhe beach infront of Fabregas itself is not good, the water ia very shallow and there's a lot of sea plants and sea urchin. My son accidently touched a black sea urchin when we arrived from our island hopping, some pointy parts of sea urchin stuck inside my son's hand. We never swim on the beach along corong, it's not safe and doesn't look good anymore. Good thing it's not poisonous and my son is fine. Another issue is that the sink inside the bathroom is a bit clogged, I had to wait couple of minutes for the water to go down. But since I'm very satisfied with the friendly and accomodating staff, I'm still giving them 5 stars. Room is 5 stars. Bathroom is 4 stars. Beach is 2 stars. Jecille and...

Run down, extremely rudimentary, not worthy of the money paid per night. Wouldn't reccomend to anyone.

staff rude and unresponsive. air conditioner old and terrible - not installed correctly so rattled all night, every night. not great for sleeping. outside lights stream into the room all night thanks to cheap thin curtains. don't book this if you want a good sleep. no fridge in room or accessible to guests whatsoever. horrible if you want a cold water or have medicine to store. no soap provided, ironic when there is a "please Handwash" sign. no hand towels, or foot towels to avoid wet bathroom floor. toilet barely flushes, kept blocking during our stay. gross enough. understand this is remote island, but accomodation for that expense should have some better plumbing. probably all of el nido, but tap water was yellow. not enough free drinking water provided - ideally there should be a dispenser in each room. no onsite resteraunt, coffee or bar but plenty around. shops near on road - no fridge though so you can't buy anything to keep chilled.

Unclear where good reviews come from. Another family who stayed here when we did shared all the same views. Odd.

Beautiful beachfront location, about the...

This place is right at the beach but that beach is not the best if you wanna swim, especially during the low tide. But there are many places close if you wanna eat and have a drink. Rooms are clean and you have to take of your shoes or slippers before you are going inside of the rooms, they have a little pipe next to the every room to wash your feet 🦶 Toilet was clogged couple times and the water pressure is terrible, you can see the video of it. But rooms are to small for 5 people, we stayed 4 nights and it is hard to manage everything because it is too small. There is an AC and the fan. Front desk is opened until 7 PM and you can get some chips and drinks over there. Also there are many little stores and restaurants at the main street...
