The person at the airport took my bags and basically escorted me to the hotel with the driver. They had a bomb dog at the lobby that searched my bags which was interesting. Luckily I left my bombs at home. Got checked in and took a walk around the resort. Very clean property. Beach is on the back side of the hotel. Rooms are nice. They had big restaurant, a nice gym, spa facility, a game room and big lobby lounge area. Only thing that sucked was the pool and pool bar were closed for renovations. I also didn't like the grass areas around the sides of the hotel. Not very appealing since it wasn't even grass. Looks like green weeds. It was also very muddy since it rains on and off. The best part of this trip was the spa!! I tired to get a massage everyday while I was there but it didn't happen. I think her name was Charisse? I''m sorry for not remembering her name. She was awesome!!! Best massage ever in my life! Nothing like your typical Swedish or deep tissue like in the US. I had her do the combo every time I went. My typical routine every morning was to workout and then eat at the breakfast buffet at the restaurant which was amazing. They had all kinds of different choices of things to eat. Delicious and overwhelming! Overall, I enjoyed my stay. I would definitely stay at this hotel again.

You can hike, go stay on a beach, do kayaking, paddleboarding it is all just wonderful. The surrounding area is just also amazing. The Corals are so healthy and the local government enforces an environmental approach to El Nido tourism that will make the beauty of these islands last in years to come. The price to stay at a resort is extravagant for Philippines standards and many activities, like island hopping, and food are not included in the basic room price. But you can still make it here as a backpacker if you want too.

The service was impeccable by the staff and onsite restaurant Jinjer provided amazing food. The free breakfast was a combination of traditional Filipino dishes and western dishes which was tastefully done in both food quality and presentation. They even packed us breakfast for our early flight without any additional expected charge. Perhaps the only recommendation would be to have pool side service of drinks and food but otherwise the bar and Jinjer were close enough to the pools that it wasn't difficult to get anything. Would highly recommend this resort to anyone!

We went here on a recommendation from our Airbnb host. The views were amazing but just keep in mind…read morethat they have two spots, one right in front of the water and one just across the street. The location right by the beach has great views but very little coverage from the sun and it's very hot. The other location is more shaded at the top level and might be more comfortable. The food was pretty good but if you're looking for a western breakfast it won't be exactly that so manage your expectations. Still, the service was great and we enjoyed our time there

Make sure you book the whole package including the meals. It is worth it. The staff makes sure it is smooth and safe from the time you check in at the airport, the transfer and all the tours. They accommodate you if they have it. The island hopping is beautiful. I was worried about the water that they serve, I was reluctant, but we are fine. I did not have to buy bottled water. The water here is filtered and safe. Highly recommended. They discourage tipping, but if you insist, they centralize the tipping. They make sure you don't miss your flight back. Awesome!

Outstanding service, but check your room category for the best views…read more I was staying at the Lagun Hotel and wanted to share my experience. First, the staff here is exceptional. Every team member I've encountered has been professional, warm, and attentive. Their genuine care for guests is the standout feature of this property. Regarding the rooms, I've experienced two very different views. My first room featured a breathtaking look at the limestone cliffs, which was a highlight of my trip. Other days in another room, however, overlooks a residential area with visible, modest living conditions. The contrast between these two experiences was significant. While I understand the hotel cannot control its surroundings, providing more transparency about room types during the booking process--or when arranging a room change--would greatly help manage guest expectations. A quick tip for future travelers: The local wildlife is very active! I highly recommend bringing earplugs or noise-canceling headphones, as the neighborhood roosters begin crowing around 1:00 am. Additionally, I noticed some stained/mold issues in my current and previous bathroom that may need attention. I'm sharing this feedback constructively, as the service here truly deserves to shine.

This hotel is a complete nightmare! We had a terrible experience there and will never stay there…read moreagain. The hotel itself is in a terrible state compared to 5 years ago. First of all, they robbed us of a night's stay for a two-room reservation. When we call to complain, they tell us to wait for a supervisor and to call back later. We call back, but there is never a supervisor in sight. We called ahead to let them know our flight would be arriving a day later. They said that if they could book our room for that night, we wouldn't have to pay. We arrived early in the morning, and they said they had booked our room. So, we spent the entire morning waiting in the lobby, exhausted but were ok since we weren't paying for the night. When checking out, they gave us the checkout receipt that I requested, which showed the nights we had stayed there for proof. It's been an exhausting four months trying to get our money back from this hotel. They're total liars!
