We stayed at Coral Bay during the first two weeks of January 2013. A Couple and 3 kids (12,9,3 years). The location is great and just a short ride into El Nido. On arrival we were welcomed by the Robert, Alain and Mercedes and fresh beers, the garden is fantastic and very well maintained, the sea view is amazing. I... More

for 6 nights and 7 days, for 4 college backpackers, this was better than any place I'd expect in El Nido. We had no reservation, and were lucky enough to be able to walk in and grab the last two rooms. Relatively close to town by tricycle. The owners are stand up guys! They treat their resort as if it...

The sunsets here are amazing!!!! We enjoyed several with a few cold beers and our cameras. It is a 50p ride to town but so much nicer to stay out here. We did walk it one day, 2km but really once was enough, it was a hot day. There is quiet and long stretch of beach to explore out here.... More

We stayed here during the last week in January. The location is a short tricycle ride into El Nido town which, whilst isn't always that convenient, we were glad for. The sunsets from the beachfront garden are just beautiful and Coron Coron is much quieter than El Nido meaning we were able to get a good nights sleep, which I'd... More

We came to El Nido during Chinese New Years Holiday and the little town was packed with visitors. We were hoping for a few quiet and relaxing days at a waterfront hotel only to find that El Nido beach was noisy and crowded, also with very little vacancy any available hotels charged very inflated prices. Luckily we booked 2 nights... More

This resort is located on an island in the middle of nowhere, absolutely fantastic location. My partner dives, and he enjoyed the diving opportunities from here. What you need to be prepared for are that the rooms are very basic.There is also no hot water and the electricity only runs from 6pm-6am, which restricts things, and makes the room less... More

We had a great time staying at coral bay. At first we spend a night in town but we decided the morning to look for something else to get away from the buzz in town. Coral bay was perfect. The owners are very friendly and the breakfast is not bad. If we can we will return. Only negative/strange point i... More

We enjoyed our stay at Coral Bay during Christmas 2012. The staff/owners were extremely helpful and welcoming. The rooms are comfortable, basic and clean. The choices are very limited in this area and compared to other places that we saw, within the same price range, Coral Bay was the nicest. The beach in front of the hotel is quiet and... More

I was not impressed by the place: - the room that we were given did not have enough light - furniture is basic to the extreme - they don't clean rooms on a daily basis - Not 100% sure that cleaning of the towels was exemplary - the aircon is 80s style and is extremely noisy. You can't keep switched... More

Firstly, I have to agree with the previous review and ask "what is all the fuss about?" We had originally booked just one night in Coral Bay Resort by telephone a couple of days prior to our arrival. We indicated that we might stay for longer but were unsure of our plans and therefore would just like to book for... More
