Homestays in Mimaropa, Philippines

Casalay Resort truly felt like a home away from home. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by the amazing staff who made us feel like family. Everyone was incredibly kind, thoughtful, and genuinely caring — we especially loved catching up with them after our daily activities. It’s those small, personal touches that made our stay so special and unforgettable. The resort itself is a peaceful and beautiful escape — the villas are charming and surrounded by nature. Breakfast was always delicious and filling, the perfect way to start each day. We do have a few small suggestions that might make future stays even better: 1. Blackout curtains on the villa verandas for those who like to sleep in. 2. Clothing hooks in the shower or changing rooms would be super convenient. 3. It would be great to have an option for two queen beds in rooms, especially for friends traveling together. 4. And if all villas are fully booked, we think it would be such a lovely idea for the resort to organize a long dinner or a small evening activity for all guests to connect and enjoy the evening together under the stars. Overall, we had an amazing experience and are already looking forward to coming back. Thank you again to the entire Casalay team for making our stay so warm, relaxing, and memorable. We’ll definitely be recommending your resort to our family and friends — 100% love and appreciation from us to all of you!

I booked this room without breakfast. You can add an extra bed. It is suitable for a family. The location of the hotel is close to the town.

Stayed at this hotel for three nights. The hotel is definitely worth the money. The owner of the hotel is Dutch, simply an amazing person. He personally helped us with organizing an excursion to the sea, called and they brought us a bike to rent, ordered us a transfer for the return trip, and even changed our dollars. In short, if you come to this hotel, you do not need to resolve any organizational issues, everything will be provided to you at the hotel. The rooms are very spacious and clean. Excellent breakfast. Portioned, but to choose from. Be sure to have dinner at the hotel, the chef cooks delicious food. There is one minus, the hotel is located on the road and all the rooms face the road, which makes it quite noisy at night. But the worst thing for me was not the cars, but the dogs and roosters that crowed around the clock. But, if you don’t have problems falling asleep, then you definitely won’t be disappointed.

I had such a great experience staying at S Resort El Nido. The location is super convenient, it’s close to everything! Restaurants, shops, and the starting points for island-hopping tours are all just a short walk or tricycle ride away, which made getting around really easy. The best part for me was the rooftop. The view from up there is stunning, you can see the dramatic limestone cliffs and surrounding greenery, and sunrise and susset. It’s the perfect spot to relax after a day of island tours or to catch the sunset with a drink in hand. The hotel itself is modern and stylish, but still feels relaxed and welcoming. The staff were friendly and always happy to help, which made the stay even better. If you’re looking for a comfortable, accessible place to stay in El Nido with amazing views and a great location, Hue is a solid choice. I’d definitely come back.

最高のロケーションとスタッフの行き届いたサービスに感謝します。特にレストランからのプール越しの景色は絶景です。朝食は南国の青い海が一日の素晴らしい始まりを後押しし、夕食の美しいサンセットの憧憬は涙を誘うほどです。ヴィラの部屋は掃除が行き届いております、アートが素晴らしいです。決して新しい建物ではありませんがメンテナンスが行き届いているところにオーナーやスタッフの皆さんの誠意を感じ取れます。レストランは混雑するとオペレーションが追いついていないところが唯一の改善点ですが、スタッフの笑顔と美しい景色がそれすら忘れさせてくれます。料理の味は勿論素晴らしいです。また是非お世話になりたいと思います。エル・ニドは最高です。レストランと部屋からの景色を添付します。

Very nice location with amazing sunset. The glamping hotel is new and they are still finishing building it so there were some issues both with the rooms (room lock without proper card but a very hard and strange key, unstable bathroom’s faucet and hot water in the shower with a very unusual control system) and the staff, who asked multiple times if we had payed the room already with Trip and asked for proof of payment. Other than that, it is a pleasant choice for the nice location and the decoration style. The offer a free shuttle service to the town but you need to wait some time usually. In alternative, when u come back to the hotel you will need your walk up to a bit steep road because the tuck tuck will not be able to come all the way up, but it’s not too bad) They also borrow a free towel that u can bring with you to other beaches. They did not clean the room daily and they said the service needed to be requested because they wouldn’t enter the room without permission. Also the reception is not open 24h which is a bit unconvenient and they would ask to text on whatshapp. For the price paid and considered how expensive it was for philippines, I would have expected less issues but I would still recommend it for a nice staying in el nido.

Centre, convenient for boat tours, pure , there is toothpaste , gel and shampoo, drinking water in the canisters, tea, coffee on the table in the yard in free access, breakfast 100 peso , not very, in general normal for one night, not much didn't like what agreed with The host that will give a bike for rent after the expulsion for two days if we buy a boat tour , the tour bought , and the bike didn't give ))) was not very pleasant ! And the most important thing was not hot water, whether it was not at all, whether it was not on this day ! !

This place was absolute paradise. The beach is stunning with beautiful sunsets just around the corner. There are loads of beach bars and restaurants around and the beach is clean with clear waters. Many tourists travel here for the day and stay elsewhere so this place was perfect for those evenings in a bar or on the porch and looking at the sea. This place is right on the sea and listening to the waves while falling asleep was relaxing. The amenities were excellent and a lovely warm shower to wash away the sand. The only issue with this place was the service and lack of cleaning/ restocking. Sand is an inevitability and we lacked the necessary tools to clean the room so it got quite sandy after a couple of days and the cups from the welcome drinks were there for three days. We don’t require or expect daily cleaning but we stayed 5 nights and the room was made up once (not including bedding and towels). That being said, this place is amazing. There are few better locations and the calmness made for a perfect little break for us. Will definitely stay here again! Also a little bonus for dog lovers- there is a gorgeous little beach dog that chills on the porch and gets excited every time you come and go! He was super friendly, loving us and loved by all the guests!

We stayed for a night at this hidden villa, and it felt like a true home away from home. The staff were incredibly kind and respectful, providing excellent service that made our stay comfortable and enjoyable. The food was a highlight—absolutely delicious, with a healthy breakfast offered in the morning. You can even request a floating breakfast, which added a special touch to the experience. While the villa is tucked away down a short gravel road, the peaceful and private setting made it worth the effort. The villa is kid-friendly, but families should be cautious around the tiled swimming pool area. There’s no TV, so if you’re traveling with children, make sure their devices are charged. Fortunately, the Wi-Fi is strong and reliable. Overall, it was a lovely, relaxing stay with amazing food and warm hospitality. We highly recommend this villa for a cozy and memorable getaway.
