Bungalow holiday rentals in El Nido

We chose to stay at Pangatalan island to have a few days of solitude and tranquility. Our stay with Fred and Chris surpassed our expectations, with memories to last a lifetime. It was truly so special, even more than words could describe! Fred and Chris showed us incredible hospitality from the moment we checked in, accommodating early check in and transportation, and arranging activities (like snorkeling and island hopping adventures with a seafood picnic)! One of the main highlights was the private beach with crystal clear water and no one in sight & the infinity pool overlooking views of the ocean. Their entire team was very accommodating and no need was unmet! If you’re questioning whether to stay here, DON’T and just book it! You won’t regret it! We would love to come back

We loved our stay here! Duli Beach Resort is a perfect place to relax and be close to nature. There are even fireflies at night. The sea water is crystal clear and there are surfing instructors too. Most importantly we loved the minimalism, calm atmosphere and friendly and responsive hosts! 5/5

For a great private beach experience, Duli might just be the best value for money in El Nido! I found most other El Nido resorts either too pricey or too far from the water. I also read some concerns about contaminated public waters in El Nido town, so I really wanted a beach far from crowds. Duli Beach checked all our boxes! It had soft clean sand and shallow waters safe for the kids. My older kid loved the surfing lessons and playing card games with the hosts' own kids. Our room was spacious, airy, and just 10 steps to the beach and 5 steps to the resto. Great vibe! The resto menu was just a bit limited and didn't use much fresh local vegetables. Sinigang, tinola, and ensalada would be great additions. If you are prone to insect bites (like me), I HIGHLY reco sleeved swimwear AND covering every inch of skin with mentholated coconut oil like Kwan Loong. My repellant was not effective vs sand flies sadly! Overall though, we would return to Duli! No regrets and a lovely place

i wish we found this hidden gem earlier at our stay in Palawan. Most definitely the best place near el nido if you like tranquility and clear blue water beach.

The bungalow itself was decent with large comfy bed and they provided a cot for our baby which was good. Coco Resort is very nice, with a lovely beach bar, pool, restaurant and other facilities. Well located in Corong Corong with restaurants nearby and a 20 min walk or short tricycle ride to El Nido town. All staff were very helpful and friendly. A lovely retreat. Thanks

Great ocean view room. Beside outpost and. Republica where you can get drinks and food. Sari sari store close by to get toiletries as none are provided. Instant coffee everyday at the oceanfront patio included.

The perfect place for what we needed in El Nido, super affordable and hidden away from the busy town but only a 5 minute tricycle from the town centre. Only a 1 minute walk from a beautiful and quiet beach with a few bars and restaurants and great sunset. Christophe also helped with recommendations and sorting out motorbike rental/ boat tours (there was a tour guide shop next to the bnb ran by very nice people). He responded to messages on Airbnb in minutes which was handy too. Would definitely stay again!

Had the most amazing stay at Balai Ko. Everyone was so friendly and welcoming, and the staff were very attentive to make sure we were comfortable. Our room was very clean and cosy with a good shower. The food at adjoining Mayad restaurant was absolutely delicious with a selection of local and Mediterranean dishes and beautiful views of the bay. Overall great experience, we can’t wait to come back!

Amazing house, everything is even more beautiful in real life. The communication with the host is perfect, quick and helpful. Lovely people, lovely place, would definitely recommend it!

We stayed here as a family of 4 and the room fit us all comfortably. The caretaker was so nice and friendly and expertly cut and opened the complimentary coconuts that grew on the property for us with a big smile. The host was super responsive and friendly. Just to point out, there is another room/cabin on the premises, which means you will be sharing the open space with them. Additionally, there wasn't any normal shelves or cupboard to unpack our clothes into so our stuff got pretty sandy but besides for that, everything was great. The front space is so nice to chill with hammocks, reclining deck chairs and soft soft sand. With a long quiet stretch of beach out in front, quiet indeed but important to note not totally secluded with a Bice campsite next door and locals going about there day. (During our stay, the neighbour was making a 2 day large fire to dispose of rubbish which caused unpleasant smells and smoke, obviously no fault to the property) Overall, highly recommended!

I really enjoyed my stay here. The place was super clean, quiet, and just had a really peaceful vibe overall — perfect for unwinding after a busy day. It felt cozy and well cared for, which made it easy to settle in right away. The host was friendly and easy to communicate with, which made everything smooth from check-in to check-out. Honestly, it was just a really nice, low-stress experience. I'd definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone looking for a calm and comfortable place.
