Paradise on Earthš
I canāt recommend this place highly enough!! Based right on the beach, it is truly an oasis of beauty, peace, delicious food and amazing staff!
We stayed in the King Size villa which had 2 bathrooms and the coolest sensor-operated toilets!! The drinks in the mini bar were complimentary for the first time (chargeable for refills) and the bedroom was spacious and beautifully decorated with air-conditioning.
The villas are literally a few meters away from the most gorgeous, unspoiled beach I have ever come across in my life offering the most breathtaking sunsetsš An added bonus is the turtle hatchery on site where we were fortunate enough to see the release of baby turtles into the ocean on 2 occasions.
The setup is such that the Nacpan Villas, the Glamping site and Beach Resort are all next to each other and share the same restaurant, Sunmai. The quality of the food, in addition to the menu options and prices at this place, in my opinion, is absolutely outstanding and great value for money considering the resort setup. Whatās more is that you have the option to enjoy your food on the beach loungers overlooking the ocean and taking in the sunsets. We thoroughly enjoyed all their seafood options and also the wood-fire pizza, which was ideal with a beer or mango shake for an afternoon snackš
The spread for breakfast was vast with lots of delectable food and beverage options. My personal favourites were the garlic rice, fish dishes and bite-sized portions of moist chocolate cakeš If youāre tired of Sunmai and looking for a bit of a change, you are also able to dine at the neighbouring Ankla resort.
A special mention has to be made of the staff who are truly so friendly, kind and ever so helpful in any way they can be! It honestly makes such a big difference to be in a place with this level of authentic hospitality and service and I am ever so grateful for this!
Sheryl helped us with securing a transfer from El Nido town to the villa. She kept up consistent communication before we arrived and ensured we were safely picked up and transported to the villa! Hazel and Merla were also 2 absolute stars during our stay, ensuring we were comfortable in our villa and advising and helping to book activities and transfers for the duration of our stay. They also arranged a little cake for my birthday which made it truly specialš
Lastly, I would also like to commend the resort for their punctuality and sticking to the times indicated for collections and drop-offs! This was much appreciated!
All in all, it was a beautiful few days spent at Nacpan Villas and I would love to return here some dayš Whilst I was searching for accommodation in Nacpan, I noticed some sites referring to the Villas as 3. However from my experience, this is...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreUnforgettable location and very nice staff.
Stayed for a week at a duplex villa. Positive feedbacks: amazing, spectacular location. The villas are not beachfront (was not expected that) but so close by a super peaceful beach. The beach is like 4kms long allowing very pleasant and quiet walks. Over the 6 days stay, it was never busy and felt like I was sometimes on my own especially during the walks in the morning. I will remember that beach forever! Make sure you watch the sunsets, they are just spectacular BUT remember to apply lotion against sand flies (they are everywhere especially at sunrise and sunset. peaceful as you are 30 min from El Nido town very nice villa, quiet, bathrooms have amenities and comfy bathrobes. very friendly staff tv have Netflix, prime⦠good A/C Nespresso machine and kettle in the room
To be aware that : There is no restaurant for the villas, you need to walk just 5 min to go to the restaurant Sunmai. You have to pay directly at the restaurant, it canāt be put on your bill. The food at the restaurant Sunmai is not great. Was disappointed not to see for example plain grilled fish, squid, prawns or veggies. Everything was in sauce and not very healthy I found There are some others small stalls but didnāt want to try, afraid de get sick⦠The sea is quite rough all the time, big waves Beware of the sandflies, they are super agressive especially at sunset time and the bites are extremely painful. Protect yourself. 30 min from El Nido town Shared shuttle time could be improved. The 1st one in the a is 8am. I booked an island tour outside the hotel and the departure time was 8am from El Nido town so had to book a private shuttle. Starting a tour early makes a big difference as it gets busy. Same thing the last shared There is no way to adjust the heat in the shower, one temperature only. No tv channels
Overall, I would highly recommend the El Nido villas but just be aware of the food which...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreThis trip was decided on at the nick of time and we just came accross this resort via online. Not everything fell in perfectly but the serenity and the beauty of the place made our stay worth reminiscing. This resort keeps the best sunset viewing in the Island. Their food and beverage offerings can excessively satisfy your Island cravings as it is flavorful and instagrammable.
A place isnāt a place to be if the people are not at their best. Please know that Nacpan Beach Villa has the best people in making your stay experience exceptional. It is worthy to mention few of the stellars in the like of Jonnel who made our booking arrangements spotless, Marve who welcomed us warmly and made our stay hassle free by all of his constant engagements and follow ups, Annie and Merla who swiftly arranged our transfers and other needs - both ladies are equally amazing and spectacular. They even sent us off warmly during our Island hopping tour. Mr. Rodel of Sunmai Restaurant who was all around providing his best for a seamless dining experience. Joemar of Glamping who was also an instrument in providing our orher basic needs when we were lounging in front of the restaurant and whenever we approached the reception for assistance. Of course, the Operations Manager Mr. Butch whom I offer my multiple thumbs up for his outstanding and unparalleled management efforts. All the best Nacpan Beach Villa, Glamping and Resort team!
You are the āSafe Havenā of El Nido!!
