I stayed here for 5 days and had a great time. They have free transportation to town or tours. Right on a very nice quiet clean beach. If you are a foodie you can walk to Carly for an incredible meal as well. Thanks Ulle!

Many thanks to Uli & Rose for being excellent hosts, they made us feel like we were ‘part of the family’ The views from the balcony were spectacular, the rooms are large, have air-con and with smart TV. The shower/restroom also very spacious. We spent the evenings at the bar interacting with other guests and the hosts. There was also a good choice of delicious on the menu. We also opted for the breakfast included option. We also took advantage of the chariot/shuttle service, that took us into El Nido town and to the next beach… free of charge and included within the price. I personally recommend the Island Hopping, if you want to see some spectacular views of, and want to visit the beautiful lagoons, just ask Rose or Uli for details. They will also arrange transport too. The Reef Strand Resort is like a sparking hidden treasure, and my partner and I are already looking forward to visiting again in 2025. A special thank you to Jima, Angel, Jizreal and Jona, and all of the employees that welcomed us, took care of us and looked after us, during our stay.

Quiet, ocean front, simple, but perfect.

Although an older hotel, its location is quiet and it has the best pool overlooking the ocean. The staff are really lovely and it was a wonderful stay.

2/10 Poor

Where do I start? First, the place is not the same as in the pictures.The owner of the place is so rude! Where my sibling stayed, they all got a lot of bites! Not sure if they were bed bugs or what, but something bit them. The room had lot of ants and the tv and bathroom were not working - clogged toilet that wouldn't flush. When we asked for the room to be cleaned, the cups dirty and the dirty towels not replace! We had to pay going in and out of this place, Don't be fooled by the website this place is out of nowhere you could stay somewhere where is cheapear and convenient to you...

The pictures are very deceiving. Pool is dirty,never seen the filter on, the whole time we were there. It shows that the maintenance of the property is very minimal. The only thing great about the resort are the staffs. I wouldn't recommend the property to anyone. It was very disappointing.

I had a wonderful first visit and look forward to coming back again. The owner Mr. Uli, went out of his way to make sure I was comfortable, and get me to my island hopping cruise on time! Warm and friendly staff. Very helpful. Beautiful location on the beach. シ

Truthful review. The only two pleasing things at this hotel was we had a beautiful view ocean view from our balcony and the staff were excellent and so friendly. The hotel itself needs a complete renovation. There was a lot of rust and rotted wood around the exterior of the building. The owner was alway in the lounge area which is ok, but we always struggled to get change. He had to pull money out of his pocket. Very shabby business practices here. For my room, the sliding door was the only door to the room. The lock did not work so they had to replace it but he told me the people that checked out that morning had no issues. Complete lie because when their maintenance guy tried, he couldn’t get it to work either. Had loose tiles on the floor. No water pressure in the shower. When I opened the bathroom door from the inside, the door knob came off. The air conditioner could not keep the room cool enough during the day but night was ok. The reviews were good that is why we got a room here, but I wouldn’t recommend staying here. Also, it is about 15 minutes from a road to get to a tricycle or taxi because of a very narrow way to the hotel.
