Island Front II

A really really great place. The manager is the sister of the owner, she is a very sweet person, we had long and nice talk with her, she told us about Philippine culture. She even gave us discount for kayaking. Be warned that the neighborhood has roosters, and they will definitely wake you up in the early morning (starting from 4am), it's great if you want to see sunrise but take Earplug in case. We got used to it quite quickly. The Hotel itself is huge and very nicely designed, the rooms are great and fresh, no need for A/C. We took a massage, it was very nice. Breakfast is OK. To go to El Nido proper it is a 5 min and 50 pesos ride by tricycle (you can get one at any time easily). Overall I definitely recommend the place, it is perfect if you want an hotel a bit far from the bar and crowded area, in a more peaceful area.
