This is an amazing property. Breakfast was very good made to order. The Staff here are so lovely making sure you have a nice stay. Housekeeping is impeccable. It has a nice view although there isn’t really a beach but it’s just a 20 minute tricycle ride to vanilla beach for wonderful sunsets. I would definitely recommend Caldao Resort

The staff service is unquestionable. Everyone is friendly and hospitable. The rooms are clean and pleasing to the eye. Staffs are very attentive to guests needs and can be messaged 24/7.The road going from and to the property is not the most pleasant but they provide 24/7 transport which really helps. The property is very quiet and relaxing. If you need a place to relax, unwind and just enjoy silence, I recommend this resort!

Wonderful stay! Peaceful and serene. Away from busy town center. Three pools and SPA were nice to enjoy. Best of all was the views and the restaurant. Buffet breakfast and ala carte ordering were complimentary and provided an excellent choice of local foods and western dishes. Fresh healthy shots, juices and shakes were super delicious. Staff were friendly and made our room each day. Across the street was the tour company recommended and tour A with Albert was excellent!!! Town center was a complimentary tuk tuk ride away. Hotel transport to and from airport is available for a small charge. We beach hopped around the island by tuk tuk. Overall a wonderful stay and highly recommend! Thank you for an excellent, relaxing stay.

Stayed here for 4 nights and found it a relaxing place to stay. With pools being in separate areas it meant the guests were spread out and didn't feel crowded. The location was quiet and was only a 10-15 walk into El Nido town. When we didn't feel like heading out the restaurant dining options were quiet reasonable and tasty too. The massage was excellent too

We enjoyed our short stay here. It’s very close to the water and provides stunning views of the nearby islands. The manager, Sid, was an amazing host and was very attentive to our needs. He helped us out with everything including a very early transfer to the airport. I highly recommend this place for its hospitality, views, and great food at the restaurant.
