Homestays in Mimaropa, Philippines

The Hotel is beautifully located. Just like in the pictures it’s right in front of the ocean and counts with a lot of cool amenities such as books to lend, massage as well as a restaurant. The garden is kept excellent and has hammocks on which you can relax/watch the sunset. The same are that offers the books to buy/lend counts with different board games. The hotel rooms are very clean and equipped with both AC and fan. The staff is very friendly and extremely helpful I(I lost my Flipflops and one of the staff members lend me hers). Additionally, they offer/help to book tuktuks, boat tours, etc….

We stayed four nights at Casalay Boutique Villas and Dive and overall had a wonderful experience. The location is truly special – stunning views, beautifully designed villas, a very well-kept property, and breathtaking sunsets by the pool or from the terrace. The atmosphere is quiet and relaxing, perfect for a luxurious getaway. Be aware that getting there can be a bit tricky. Buses from Manila to Batangas City run regularly, but the last ferry departs at 4 PM. Make sure to plan your trip accordingly – we ran into some issues because of this. The food is more expensive than local options, but very clean and easily adaptable to vegetarian needs. While the vegetarian menu is limited, the manager was very accommodating and open to adjustments, which we truly appreciated. There are plenty of activities: a paid boat transfer to Secret Bay, trips to Sabang, diving, massages, and more. Just keep in mind to clarify whether you book activities through the hotel or third-party providers, as prices can vary and surcharges are common. Some small downsides: our room was only cleaned on two of the four days, which didn’t meet the highest hygiene standards, and the beach could be a little cleaner. Still, we had a very enjoyable stay. The combination of friendly staff, beautiful setting, and unique location makes this hotel highly recommendable.

staffs are accommodating and friendly owner is friendly and very responsive  very cozy and clean amenities are complete  bathroom can be improved but very aesthetic and clean close to maintown surely will book again

I’ll definitely book this farm stay again. The vibe of the place is very relaxing. The room is clean specifically the bathroom. The linens are so comforting after a long trip. I felt very safe and homey. I’lll definitely dip int the pool on my next visit. The staff are so helpful. Hands down to the owner, she’s very warm and accommodating. I give this place two thumbs up.

About Anitsa Resort, we loved it! Perfect hotel that makes your stay in El Nido warm and cozy! Breakfast isn’t a buffet, but every day the menu surprises you with a delicious new option, we absolutely loved it! All the amenities worked perfectly, and the staff was incredibly kind and helpful. They even assisted us with renting tours and bikes to explore the city. The resort is about 15 minutes from the center, but the location is perfect for visiting all the beaches around El Nido. If we ever return, we would love to stay at Anitsa Resort again!

Прекрасный отель! Уютные виллы в непосредственной близости к морю. Чисто, но убираются по требованию. Персонал очень приветливый и отзывчивый, всегда готовы помочь. Пляж шикарный и абсолютно безлюдный. Полный релакс. Рекомендую 100% для тихого спокойного отдыха

We stayed at this hotel for 3 days from January 19-22, 2026. We really enjoyed everything; it's very cozy and beautiful on the hotel grounds. The owner is nice. Breakfasts were a bit sparse, and our room had very little space in the shower. Otherwise, everything was great, and the location is good and quiet. Definitely recommend!!!!!

Best in El Nido bar none. Views are to die for. Naturally villas are on side of a hill pretty high up. So no local tuk Tulsa can make it up there. So u want to call intercomm from entrance and they pick u up. And drive up. We stayed in 4s and it was awesome.
