Staff! Rhan, Al, and Rica phenomenal!! All very helpful with whatever questions I had. Great recommendations of tours, beaches, and restaurants. Very courteous and nice! Although every Philippino I met seem to be very nice and helpful. Highly recommend the Rockinnest. Super cool boutique hotel! Rooms are very unique and cool! Pricing seem to be competitive with other similar hotels. Location is perfect! Whole little town is walkable and the Rockinnest is perfectly located. Breakfast included! Full cooked meal, very good, lots of choices! Al recommended some great dishes!! He makes some pretty good tea also!! Definitely would revisit!

I am visiting from NYC, it’s my first time in El Nido. Hotel has the perfect location for me for my activities island tours, land tours, scuba diving and exploring the town. Centrally located and close to the center of El Nido. Short hop tricycle ride to Caalan where I enjoyed a nice quiet lunch at Cadlao resort. Close to a myriad of shopping and dining options. Close to other destinations Nacpan, Lio, Vanilla Beaches and the Zipline. The property is well appointed. Love the design of the rooms mixed island, modern touches, exposed rafters, incorporating stone and seashells with the bathroom decor. Great folks here, bar well attended and a good selection of wines from around the world. Great place to unwind and have a glass or wine or two after a day’s exploring the seas and beaches. Highly recommended!

This is a cute little hotel right in the centre of town. The room was very nice and unique in its decoration. The hot water in the shower was quite unreliable and would go from cold to scalding hot intermittently which made it difficult to use. Otherwise, we loved our stay.

The design is unique and sculptural. Staff is super friendly. We felt like we were in a treehouse. Comfortable room! If you are looking for relaxation, however, there is a lot of noise due to poor insulation (motor vehicles and street noise) and construction next door. Somehow, we slept wonderfully! But know that the rooms are quite noisy if you're a light sleeper.

Beautiful building with one of a kind artistic features throughout that are very nice but not practical for a hotel. No place to hang clothes. Beautiful stone bath sink with faucet that misses sink. Not user friendly. Great staff and great location. Yes, I will go back.

The design of the hotel is absolutely gorgeous. I saw 3 rooms and each was unique and beautiful. The staff was amazing, polite, helpful and always available. As an early riser, I appreciated a friendly greeting whenever I went downstairs. Very walkable area, also motorbike rentals right up the street and trikes (tuk tuk) available at any time. Shopping is very easy. Market within walking distance, beach shops, restaurants, tattoo, etc. not far away from the hotel.
