The hotel was clean the location is horrible the buffet breakfast was terrible ordering off the menu was terrible they didn’t have a fraction of what was listed on the menu. I realize that it’s in a busy tourist spot but it was not good value for the money . Overpriced for what you get I don’t recommend and won’t stay again.

We absolutely loved our stay at Lio Villas! The staff were some of the best—super accommodating and genuinely welcoming. The pool and food were both amazing. If you’re looking for a peaceful spot away from the crowds, this is the perfect place. They offer motorcycle rentals and tours, and they’ll gladly arrange everything for you. We really appreciated how well they took care of us from start to finish.

Misleading photos. Property very outdated and not in the best area. Staff and hospitality was great though I did not end up staying there but the staff had pleasure in assisting me in finding a much better hotel which was very much appreciated by them.

I stayed here on August for a solo trip. The staff were very nice and accommodating. I also really loved the room that I stayed in as it was very spacious. The only concern that I had was not being given a discount when the management offered to give me one before I checked in due to the pool being not available. The reason why I booked the hotel despite the location was the pool. Would have appreciated the stay more if they processed the discount or partial refund as they promised but they didn't get back even after 3 months have gone by. Nevertheless, the best thing about the place were the staff.

I asked for a late checkout and was initially told it would be no problem as there was nobody booked after us, but alas apparently the manager had a problem with that. I was willing to overlook problems because of the late checkout, but now I will air my grievances. The AC unit upstairs was not working, and there was no phone so I could not report this. It was pouring rain and no umbrellas so I could not go to reception. No TV in room as advertised. WIFI was VERY slow or not working at all. There was no hot water for shower. No restaurant on sight. A stinky dog hanging around lobby area. The pool was nice and so was the gentleman working reception. Will not return.

Such a cool place. Its got a great location to base youre travels from and a super cool and helpful staff if you need anything. Everything here has really been thought out well by the staff and management. They also are doing an expansion of the premises in this off season that looks like irs gonna be awesomene. The other really cool thing is its all off the grid on solar and has its own wells. Pair that with the great food and amazing staff makes this a go too for my EL Nido based trips

The rooms were clean and spacious, and the staff, while mostly new, provided good service. However, the area was a bit inconvenient, since it was located off an unpaved road that you had to constantly rent a tricycle to get around the area. Since tric fare was a bit pricy, the costs added up. Plus, they did not have their own van to provide as transpo for guest to and from the airport.

Nice place, but have to improve some issues

The place is nice (nice bedrooms, nice pool) and staff are nice but there are son issues they need to address. They do not accept card payments or dollars. We are in the 21st century and this in not a cheap hotel, I don’t think this is acceptable at any descent hotel. How can be possible on this days that a quality hotel does not take card payments. Also we needed to change some reservations and they said the only have incoming calls not outgoing. Im talking about local calls. Hope they fix that as well. Also the hotel is on a very bumpy road and a little far from El Nido (It has a very nice beach close by though, Lio Beach) some times tuk tuks don’t want to take you there or they charge you more. I don’t think they can do much about it. I still believe this is a nice hotel, just hope they fix this issues. Just be aware if you decide to stay.

Utrolig fin opplevelse og overnatting hos Lio Villas Resort. Ligger litt utkanten av selve El Nido by, men veldig deilig hvis du har lyst å slappe av uten å høre byens sus og dus. Vi ble møtt av en veldig hyggelig resepsjonist (Jesh) som utøvde god kundeservice. Takk for at du gjorde hotellopplevelsen behagelig. Vi vil også rette oppmerksomhet til kjøkkensjefen, Chef Marlon. Fantastisk god adobo!! Anbefales!! Takk for et superfint opphold. Vil komme tilbake hvis muligheten byr seg :-)

Disliked: Staff & service
Nous avonq choisi cet hôtel plus de 10 jours avant notre départ car nous trouvions le rapport qualité-prix excellent. En arrivant, nous avons appris que l'hôtel avait fait de l'overbooking et qu'aucune autre chambre n'était disponible. A l'accueil, nous avons été prié de partir sur le champ. Ils ne nous ont pas aidés à trouver un autre hôtel ni proposé à boire. Après quelques minutes, ils ont même coupé le générateur d'électricité pour nous empêcher d'aller sur internet, de consommer leur forfait. Impossible également d'apporter la preuve qu'ils ont effectivement prévenu expédia. En outre, expédia aurait été informé de l'overbooking et ne nous a jamais contacté préalablemenr. Le jour même, malgré plusieurs emails, Expédia ne nous a jamais aidé et aujourd'hui, il refuse d'intervenir dans les frais complémentaires que nous avons eu. En bref, méfiez-vous de l'hotel...et d'expedia. Tout cela semble peu sérieux.
