Schoon, lekkere bedden, prachtige locatie
The location is superb, very instagramable yet close to everything you need! The staff and the owners are really nice and accommodating. Highly recommended 🤌
Beautiful apartment liberally on the beach. Put us up at very short notice due to miss giving of our last place, they were so much help and arranged everything, stunning views to wake up to in the morning, good breakfast which they will even serve to yoi on your balcony/ patio
Nothing to dislike
The location was epic
I have nothing negative to say
Clean and beach front
Brown out and no parking
L’emplacement , la propreté et le confort
La qualité de l’eau n’était vraiment pas top . Mais apparemment c’est assez compliqué à El Nido en général .
Great location on the beach close to tours and nice restuarant’s great view the room was clean and comfortable
A bit of a walk from the road with luggage
Alfa beach resort was great. To wake up to the view on the beach was amazing. I could see sunset from my bed. The room was clean and had everything I needed. Antonio and team were amazing. They left me leave my bag there after coming back from coron and shower before flight back to Manilla. The team were more than accommodating.
Nothing I would not hesitate to stay here again.
Great location.
1. Power out @ check-in —> can’t use the room, come back in 4 hours. 2. Power out the following day for 12 hours —> can’t use room 3. Construction happening ON OUR ROOMS throughout our stay 4. Construction included noxious fumes from room painting going until we complained at almost 10pm. I believe the staff tried to be helpful, but the owner should not have scheduled construction while renting the rooms.
Location at the beach. Calm. Friendly contact.
The water in the shower and sink smelled awful and was brown. Shower without pressure and with leftovers from previous guests. I had similar rooms for half the price, but probably the price was up due to Easter holidays.
Clean and beautiful location right on the beach. Some of the best sunsets I saw in Philippines was from the private terrace at this accommodation. Also located near lots of bars and restaurants. The owners were quick to help with anything we needed!
Only negative is the water coming from the sink and shower, it smelt like sewage / metallic. This is only placed I’ve stayed in the Philippines that is like that so not sure what is going on.
Perfect location on the beach. Very kind and helpful staff
In need of renovation. The owner is going to rebuild later this year, so hopefully it’s going to be done tastefully.
Perfect location directly at the beach within walkingdistance to nice bars and restaurants. Friendly staff
The tabwater and the sink smelled like hell. The water was brownish and after taking a shower, you felt more dirty than before, because the water smelled like 💩 We were afraid to get sick because of possible bacteria in that water. Owner said, it was everywhere in el nido like that, but we stayed in a place next door the last night and the water there was just normal, without any smell.
It is all about location. You’re right on an incredible beach with the best sea view you can imagine. Antonio and Beth were both really welcoming and were keen to help make sure you had a great stay. The bed is comfy and room is simple but you have all you need. I would definitely stay again.
The decor was a little tired and the shower electrics are attached to the light electrics which felt a little unsafe.
Nice, simple but amazing beachfront hotel. The sunsets from the porch are the best!
I gave a 9 just because a fridge in the room would have made it perfect.
Location, location, location! On the beach.
Neighbours have several dogs and they could be very noisy at night.
Amazing location
Walls are paper thin
This was our favourite place we have stayed at in the Philippines. Absolutely fantastic! The sunsets are unbelievable and they have 3 rooms right on the beach! Waking up there with a coffee was truly amazing and we will not forget the experience. We were so sad to leave and we had 7 nights! Special thank you to Beth who was there for everything we needed, advice of the ferrys, tours and moped rental! Truly a spectacular place with amazing staff! The accomodation is super! Air conditioning is amazing and there is a water station! Thank you so much Alfa Lodge!!!
Absolutely nothing! Everything was fantastic.
This place is on the beach! The room is really basic but the surroundings are so nice. They are lots of restaurants nearby, on the main road and on the beach. Here you can see the best sunsets. Also from next door you can get the best and most relaxing Swedish massage.
AC was a bit loud. First night we didn’t have a mosquito net, but they putted immediately when we asked next day. So if you have anything just ask and they will help you.
Location was prime, air con was great, cosy little room.
Amazing view right on the beach, super close to island hopping meeting points. Don't worry about the look, the beds are super comfy and new bedsheets. AC is strong. It is actually better that the walls aren't white like everywhere...we really had a romantic vibe, but even if I was a lone wolf I'd enjoy a good book on the porch and the sunset.
The location on the beach is great👍 From the bed you can see the sea and in the night your the waves - for me / us great.
Its rather basic, but if you don’t mind , you can enjoy because the location.
I liked the VIEW! and free water and coffee. The staff was very nice.
The Wifi was out for a couple of days and the power was out quite a bit and they did not run the generator except once. I had to work at other establishments for 3 days.
Excellent location by the beach. Beth and the owner Antonio were extremely friendly and helpful. Antonio even showed me the nightlife :)
It was right on the beach
A little dated
The location was excellent, right on the beach. The beach was quite nice, and the air conditioner in the room worked. Beth, the host, was very nice and pleasant to deal with.
The water in the bathroom was slightly reddish, discolored and smelly. Not pleasant to shower in it. There was a disconnect in pricing of the room, with too high a premium placed on a VERY basic room on a beach.
The room was front of beach. The staff was very kind. There was electrical pot, so I could enjoy coffee at terrace seeing sunset.
Water was brown color. Air conditioner was noisy. There were many dogs on the beach and they were noisy sometimes.
The most perfect location RIGHT on the beach. Great WiFi good aircon
Shower in room had funny smell
The location is fabulous, right on the beach. Generally quiet apart from roaming dogs barking. Very clean and great air con and fan, bed comfy with mosquito net. Yard out the back for drying clothes, free water refil at reception
The shower had wires hanging out of the wall , however considering location we had hot water and quite powerful, the tap water was a shade of brown (not shower water) Reception is a little tricky to find however there are people about to ask, the walk down to the beach is a wooden platform but it was expected- not an issue really , it all adds to the experience . The male host (sorry didn’t get the name) was helpful and pleasant
Location is perfect! Directly on Corong Corong beach right next to the best restaurants and bars to watch sunset ! Nice staff, always arranging, really appreciated!
Water access could be arrange but I guess all the city is the same
Excellent location, right on the beach. Lovely view. Cheap.
Dirty towels, lots of mosquitoes/insects (no net provided) and the water for the shower, toilet and sink was dirty.
Love the location, watching sunset from the porch. Comfortable bed and good AC. We were without running water for one day but the owner was very apologetic and explained the water shortage in the area and kept us updated with when there would be water again.
Very nice accomodation directly on the beach. Looks better in reality as in the pictures.
Would be nice to have a fridge in the room.
-Location, our room walked straight out onto the beach -Friendly staff -Able to rent scooters and book tours -Close to El Nido and Las Cabanas -Beautiful sunsets
-I wish they offered more for the money you pay e.g. cleaned the rooms daily. -The general surroundings are still in developement, lots of construction, smell of sewerage- not that pleasant as a whole
ALFA Lodge is amazing! I stayed at the one of the wonderful rooms just on the beachfront. Sunrise and Sunsets are breathtaking and the area is calm after 9pm. It was so beautiful, clean and relaxed. Antonio (the owner) is originally Italian and a very friendly and nice person. He has been in El Nido for more than 10 years and knows the region very well. He gives great Suggestions what to do and eat in the region. He even cooked delicious Spaghetti with Seadfood one day and invited me for a free plate. He is such a good hearted person and wants his guests to feel good all the time - and this is the case! I can fully recommend ALFA Lodge and will definitely come back. :)

Location is unbeatable! Literally two steps and you’re on the sand. Stunning sunsets every night from your own balcony and just a short stroll to some great restaurants. Room was simple but very comfortable and quiet with good space to store luggage. Air con / fan combo was quite new so it wasn’t noisy. Felt like we were in the best spot and would happily stay here again.
Perfect location on the beach with easy walking access to bars and restaurants. Amazing views across the bay . Room was clean and comfortable. Staff super friendly and nothing was too much trouble .
Problems with the water however owner very apologetic and sorted asap !
Best location. Much better to stay in Corong Corong beach than Coron town. Right on the beach. Close to many beach bars and restaurants. Staff arranged all the tours with pick up.
shower not the best but ok for the price
Beth the front desk staff was very helpful in many ways and went out of her way to help. Bed was very comfortable.
The size is small and room is showing its age but everything worked.
Amazing beach location
A fridge would be welcome
Amazing view, very clean and cosy room.
The reception is hard to find.
Amazing location!! Just perfect for the Palawan experience
Water pressure for shower needs improvement Better communication re room cleaning schedule would have been good
best seafront location. very nice place! loved it.
Right on the beach, perfect for sunset!
Some small issues with power and water (but that happens all around)
great location! you get to watch the sunset every day from your own terrace! also, this is the quieter and much longer of el nido's beaches. we initially booked for three days, stayed for over a week.
the water pressure could have been stronger but it's not a big problem. the walls are not that thick so hopefully your neighbours are as quiet ours.
Everything except water pressure in the shower
Water pressure might've been better
The location was the highlight of the stay, we really enjoy the balcony view, it was a game changer. We stayed an extra night because of this location. Very close to restaurants and easy to go to the town. The staff was very helpful. Definitely worth the beach front stay, we will definitely come back.
A net for the mosquitoes would be nice, everyrhing else was perfect!
Almost the perfect beach accomodation! Seperate from El Nido Town proper, but a short and cheap tricycle away. Plenty of stores and restaraunts in the surrounding area. Staff were delightful and went out of their way to help us experience the local attractions. Room had everything you need, and tough to argue with walking out onto the beach every morning!
Due to no fault of the accomodation provider, Palawan suffers from an inconsistent supply of electricity. When we stayed they unfortunately did not have a generator, but if they did it would've been the perfect relaxed beach getaway.
For us it was nice, cheap, near the beach and near all neccessary shops and restaurants. AC and Wifi perfect.
The location - the view from the balcony was beautiful, but the place was far from the main town, had to get a bike or tuk tuk every time.
- Terrible value for money. - We didn’t have any hot water or water pressure the whole time during our stay, only a trickle of cold water. Even though we brought it up with the staff, they couldn’t get an electrician to fix the electric shower until our last day. - After having the shower fixed there was then a power cut. The generator doesn’t reach the beach front bungalows so we were in pitch black darkness without aircon or a fan. The Staff provided us with a small fan, which ran out after a couple hours. This was especially horrible as we had food poisoning. - The room is not very nice, dust and dirt on the floor meaning you have to clean your feet before getting into bed. We stayed for 3 nights and don’t have any cleaning done the whole time. We had to ask for bins to be changed and for more toilet roll. - The bathroom is not well made and has a bad smell. - We were woken by the staff twice as they were talking to the neighbours at 7:30am after coming to clean a room. they were stood on our balcony having a chat for half an hour. - we had our laundry cleaned and specifically asked if they had a tumble dryer as the weather wasn’t good. They said yes but our clothes still came back damp. after refrying them they still came back damp. impressively bad. - after all of this we asked for a discount and got 500 pesos.
location is really nice. With tuktuk for 100 local pesos you can get to the city center of Coron. we definitely would stay here again. very good price quality value
The location is incredible - right on the beach along Corong Corong. It’s so peaceful and amazing to wake up and walk straight onto the beautiful tropical beach with clear water. the double bed was comfy and good storage for clothes. The bathroom is a good size. THE WiFi is fantastic. The fan works well and the AC was getting better. Antonio was a very friendly and hospitable host.
The shower water pressure is pretty weak but that’s to be excepted in a beach shack next to the beach. it’s strong enough to clean the shampoo out of hair though. The scorpion I found on the balcony on my last day! definitely don’t drink the tap water as after 5 days I saw that it had turned the white sink orange!
I loved it! it almost felt like staying in a lil fisherman house. it is very simple but the location makes the difference. Great and cheap option for El nido. you are on the beach and it is quiet at night but still you can find bars or restaurants a lil bit further. the sunset and the walk at low tide in the evening is exceptional. very uncomplicated check-in (they probably improved their communication because there were a few signs to find the way to reach the office)
the aircon was a bit too noisy, perhaps having a fan in the room would have been as good!
Location just on the beach
No fridge Way to the room isnt so accessible Bad shower... Slow water and bad faucet The shower floor was taped badly and it was so sleepery
The location is fantastic, and a great spot to watch sunset. close and easy to the main town proper but also has some great places nearby to eat/have a drink at. the bed was comfy and room spacious. the little terrace is also really nice to sit at! good wifi when there is power.
nothing major, just little things to bare in mind and most are our own personal preference and wouldn’t prevent us from booking again! when there isn’t a power cut the aircon isn’t great, we would have preferred a fan. bare in mind that you need to check in at Vali Joe, which we weren’t made aware of when we booked! there isn’t a fridge or anything to make a cup of coffee in the morning which would be nice especially with the terrace and the stunning view.
