L'établissement est idéalement situé au début de la plage de corong-corong juste a côté des départs des excursions Vous sortez de la chambre est avez les pieds dans l'eau Bien qu'assez proche du centre animé 20 mn à pied et à peine 10 en tricycle il est suffisamment à l'écart pour profiter pleinement de la mer Ce n'est pas la plage la plus adaptée à la baignade mais ce n'est pas un problème pour autant. Vous pouvez réserver des tricycle, des vans et certaines excursions directement à l'accueil à des tarifs concurrentiel. Ils louent également des scooters bien que nous soyons passés par un autre loueur pour plus de fiabilité sur l'entretien des véhicules
La climatisation fait un bruit infernal mais les chambres sont spacieuses et les lits confortables
Staff was helpful and friendly
Bathroom,low water pressure, small in size. Aircon very loud
El trato y la atención de Ben (la mujer de recepción), excelente. Nos ayudó con todo lo que pedimos: alquiler de moto (con total flexibilidad), excursiones en barco... La habitación bien de tamaño, la cama gigante y muy cómoda y con vistas al mar. Literalmente en la playa. Muy cerca de El Nido. A menos de cinco minutos en moto o tuktuk. La limpieza, excelente. Nos cambiaban las toallas todos los días. Te dan también toallas de playa. El desayuno abundante y con unas vistas maravillosas.
Nos costó un poco encontrar la entrada el primer día. El baño no tiene separación de ducha (como es habitual en Filipinas), lo que hace que estuviera encharcado a menudo. Pero la limpieza era de diez.
Vue de notre chambre, sur la plage Personnel au petit soin Masque et tuba à disposition Bouilloire, sèche cheveux, coffre dans la chambre, climatisation (un peu bruyante) Petit déjeuner sur la terrasse avec vue
Séjour cauchemardesque, une honte ! Fuyez cet endroit !" Hôtel sale, vétuste et mal entretenu. Climatisation ingérable rendant le sommeil impossible et petit déjeuner répétitif. La "vue mer" est un mensonge : vous donnez sur une terrasse ultra-bruyante, sans isolation, avec un personnel irrespectueux qui regarde des vidéos à fond dès 6h du matin sous vos fenêtres. Le sommet de l'horreur reste l'excursion, nous avons loué un bateau privé via l'hôtel : nous avons été débarqués du bateau devant l’hôtel sans aucun avertissement dans une zone infestée d'oursins. Résultat : blessure grave et urgences. Face à ma souffrance, le personnel a fait preuve d'un mépris total et inhumain. La responsable est restée assise à me regarder en souriant endurer ma douleur sans bouger le petit doigt, me laissant me débrouiller seule pour aller à l'hôpital. Ajoutez à cela des tuk-tuks partenaires qui volent les clients : cet établissement est indigne de recevoir des voyageurs. Zéro professionnalisme, zéro humanité.
Property is located in very quite or peaceful area. Away from the noise of downtown area but still located close to many places in the area. Rooms are very clean and tidy. Above all Staff are very friendly and accommodating that serve good breakfast.

Very nice and hospitable staff. They would go out of their way for you.Clean hotel right on beach.Good breakfast.
I a little far out of town.
it was tasty. I liked the corned beef
there were spiders in my room. I caught one but found one between my sheets
L’emplacement
Les serviettes tellement usées qu’elles sont trouées, la plage devant l’hôtel impraticable (remplie de méduses), la salle de bains minuscule, pas d’insonorisation. Le service de lessive (taches de javel sur les vêtements)
Loved my stay so much! Staying at Corong Corong Beach- best sunsets and ability to walk down the beach daily. Everyone at Sophias guesthouse was so kind - they arranged a moped for me, a boat tour and cooked the most delicious breakfasts. Location is just close enough from El Nido town but away from the madness of it- walkable. I also walked to Vanilla beach which was doable. 10/10 would stay again in a heartbrat!
The beds were so comfy. We always fell asleep so fast and slept through the whole night. The best hotel we stayed in on our trip by far! The staff was so kind and helped us rent motorbikes and even arranged an early breakfast time for us when we had to leave for an early bus to the airport.
There were mosquitoes in our room and I got many bites which if there was a plug-in fan available it would have been nice for them to not land on us all night.
The place was right on the beach! You can hear the relaxing sound of the waves of the ocean! They have the best staff, very helpful and accommodating! I will come back to the place!

El oersonal es amable i semore disposats a ajudar Està en 1a linia del mar
L'accés es brut, no sembla que hi hagi un alllotjament quan arribes. No hi ha platja davant de l'establiment,. Habitació petita sense manteniment amb preus d'Europa
Tge staff didn’t tell the guest that need to be aware for the sandflies. During the overnight stay we wasn’t aware that there are many sandflies in the area. In the morning we have many sandflies bite.
La tranquilidad que se respira en la zona, las vistas al mar directa y el personal que en todo momento estuvo atento y fue muy servicial. Desayuno abundante y variado. Las instalaciones están bien.
Al no tener cortinas opacas, la claridad te despertaba temprano
Labai gera apartamentų vieta ant Jūros kranto. Gražūs vaizdai ir saulėlydžiai iš terasos. Turi kajakus ir motorolerius. Galima išsinuomoti vietoje. Tai labai patogu. Taip pat vietoje galima nusipirkti ekskursijas po salas. Tai labai patogu. Personslas mandagus ir paslaugus. Nerealūs pusryčiai! Rekomenduojame!!!
Labai garsiai dirba kondicionierius. Bet vis vien getai, kad bu o jis 🙂
I absolutely loved my time at Sophia's. The property has a perfect location on Corong Corong beach with stunning sunsets- so beautiful for long beach walks. Both El Nido town and Vanilla beach are either a 20 min walk or a short trike ride away. Breakfast was a real highlight- served with wonderful fruit and delicious- I tried all options. Everyone working here was so kind and helpful- the staff organized a scooter for me (make sure to visit Nacpan) and a boat tour. Thank You so much for this wonderful stay- I cannot wait to be back.
Location was very good. Quiet and peaceful and yet a 5-10 min ride away from the main town. The staff is super helpful.
La atención del personal, el desayuno y las vistas! Era muy fácil salir a la calle principal y coger un tuk tuk que te llevará al Town!
The location provides a great view of the sea and great sunsets. You will need to walk around 100 metres further up if you want to swim as the sea floor is rocky outside Sophia’s. The breakfast was basic but filling and saves having to go outside. The bed was comfortable and the air conditioning worked fine. The staff were friendly and helpful with information. It’s around a 15 minute walk into the main part of El Nido town or you can get a tuk tuk for 150 pesos.
As others have commented previously, yes the place is not new but it is still ok. It has the basics covered. The bathroom can smell sometimes after a shower but that happens at a lot of places.
Le personnel était très aimable Vous pouvez tout réserver via eux À deux pas du départ des excursions pour la journée Très bon petit déjeuner Chambres spacieuses et propres
Ras
Location was good. We were able to rent a motorbike at guest house
Our room was off reception. The air conditioner was so loud (and old) it wasn’t possible to sleep with it running. Bathroom was not very clean.
Unserer Aufenthalt war sehr angenehm, unser Zimmer wurde täglich ein mal sauber gemacht, wegen dem ganzen Sand. Das Frühstück war super, man konnte zwischen vielen verschieden Gerichten auswählen. Den Roller den wir direkt bei der Unterkunft ausleihen konnten war, auch ein wand frei! Man ist gut gelegen zwischen dem vanilla beach und el nido stadt. Zu Fuß läuft man auch nur 20 Minuten zur Stadt, zum Beach muss man auf jeden Fall ein Tuck Tuck nehmen.
Prachtig plek aan het strand. Lekkere kamer en behulpzaam personeel. We wilde een nachtje extra, dat was geen probleem.
Airco maakt aardig wat geluid. En je zit aan de ‘rustige’ kant van el nido, dus voor meer bars enzo moet je vervoer nemen (maar een paar euro)
Tutto fantAstico! Il posto più pulito delle Filippine! Unica camera che non puzzava di muffa! Stupenda Letto grande e comodo. Lenzuola fresche e pulite. Colazione abbondante e buona Vista top..per colazione e tramonti. Bar e locali vicini Centro 15 minuti a piedi, 3 di motorino 3 minuti a piedi dal supermercato. Frontespiaggia Stenditoio a disposizione Gentilezza dello staff super
L'emplacement. Literie confortable. Café et thé mis à disposition dans la chambre.
Petit déjeuner très simple Climatisation bruyante et insonorisation de la chambre
Emplacement au bord de plage. Personnel serviable et souriant
Chambre vétuste, impossibilité d'ouvrir les rideaux et de voir la plage car balcon de petit déjeuner ou présence continue de personnes. Salle de bain vétuste et eau sans pression. Ressemble plus à une auberge de jeunesse qu'un guest house. Plutôt déçu, prix ne correspond as aux prestations. Beaucoup trop cher, il y a mieux et moins cher a El Nido
Staff are friendly and helpful, not too strict. They have free things you can borrow for free that you can use when you go island hopping. Things like snorkeling gears, fins, bags, shoes. Food is also good.
Our bathroom is small, but our room is big. But I saw other rooms have bigger bathrooms. Anyway, it's clean with free toiletries.
L emplacement est parfait et l accès aux restaurants de plages aux activités et la location de kayak
Prise électrique au niveau de la douche et petit déjeuner un peu léger
beachfront. Accessibility.
The hotel Not up to standards. The floor is dirty. Water pressure is weak. Towels are old. The shower head holder fell off the wall.
COLAZIONE CONTINENTALE E ASIATICA ENTRAMBE BUONE . POSIZIONE A POCHI METRI DAL BAGNASUGA. ECCELLENTE
In this accommodation, nothing. Booking.com should not rate them 8.2 Very Good. It's not comfortable. The room has mosquitos. It's dirty. The bathroom is old and looks and feels dirty.

Desayuno
Algo ruidoso
Le petit déjeuner et l emplacement juste en bord de mer étaient top. L hôtel dispose aussi d un service de blanchisserie.
Il manquait juste une fenêtre donnant sur l extérieur à notre chambre.
Très bien situé au bord de mer, même si la plage est un peu sale et très petite. L’accueil est plutôt sympa
Le bâtiment est vieux et demande rénovation. Nous avions la chambre avec vue sur mer… Réveillé à 6h du matin par le manque d’isolation phonique et les gens qui prennent leur petit déjeuner devant notre baie vitrée. Du coup nous avons pas ouvert ni les volets, ni la baie vitrée… Très dommage
The location is amazing, right on Corong-Corong Beach and minutes to the pier where tours depart from. There are nice beach restaurants and bars nearby. The staff are so kind and helpful wifi everything. They work hard to keep the property clean and running smoothly. The bed was very comfortable and our included breakfasts tasty and much appreciated.
The property could use updating overall but there are some easy things that would greatly improve the guest experience Better seals on doors to prevent noise and insects. The shower area needs a ledge so the entire bathroom isn't soaked with every use. Covers for the drains to stop the smell. Hand towels.
The staff was very helpful and accommodated us with our needs, such as beach towels, ice, and laundry service. The place was very close to the market and a tricycle ride away from Lio beach, Marimegmeg beach, and the downtown's attractions. Maraming salamat sa inyo!
I wish our room fridge was cooler or worked better. It barely kept our bottled drinks in room temperature.
Nothing
Dirty and cracked floor, door would not close properly due to rubber coming off, breakfast area right on the bedroom balcony
Le petit déjeuner est très bien L’accueil est sympathique La climatisation est moderne
La chambre sans fenêtre ce n’est pas agréable du tout surtout lorsqu’on choisit un hôtel sur la plage
Nice people ag front desk
It is hard to find and room are small
Everything was 10/10 Very nice and big rooms next to the ocean and the service was amazing we had to leave really early and they made us breakfast to go at 4 am Really recommend 🙏🙏
Hotel au bord de l'eau, offrant un cadre tres sympa. Centre ville a 5min en tuktok.
Das Team war sehr herzlich und die Zimmer waren einfach aber sehr sauber. Die Betten sind bequem. Im Gasthaus herrscht eine schöne Stimmung. Von dort aus kommt man gut mit dem Tricycle nach El Nido Town oder zum Vanilla Beach. Zum Frühstück konnte man jede Tag aus einer Karte auswählen, für jeden Geschmack ist etwas dabei und wir wurden satt.
Ein eigener Kühlschrank im Zimmer wäre gut. Man konnte jedoch den großen Kühlschrank in der Lobby mitbenutzen und die Getränke dort kühlen. Unser Zimmer war etwas dunkel.
The guest house is well located with really helpful staff! It’s on the beachfront next to a couple of lovely restaurants.
The guest house is tired and could do with upgrades, including the shower.
Lo staff super gentile e disponibile!!
Great value for money, great location, clean white linen and I had a perfect beach room.
Nothing
L'emplacement pour le sun set et le petit déjeuner, et par rapport au centre ville. Personnel très très sympathique.
Impossible d'ouvrir la baie vitrée sur la mer. Bruit de la clim. Bruit des bateaux et travaux le matin et, en plus, juste face au petit déjeuner. Quel dommage ! Le parking : obligé de se garer en marche arrière à effectuer sur 150m. Impossible de se baigner devant l'hôtel.
Zeer rustige ligging met een mooi uitzicht en een mooie zonsondergang. Comfortabel bed. Zeer vriendelijk personeel. Kamer altijd netjes schoongemaakt. Ontbijt lekker en ruim voldoende. Ook leuk zitten op het balkon waar het ontbijt geserveerd wordt. Gratis drinkwater en ijsblokjes beschikbaar op het balkon.
Slechte plaatsing airco (koude viel recht op het bed). Was ook niet te regelen qua temperatuur of sterkte. Personeel bezorgde ons zonder vragen wel een ventilator :-) Water dat door plafond van de badkamer lekte (kamer 3) en waar niets aan gedaan werd. Geen frigo op de kamer.
Lovely welcoming staff- very helpful (the shower head fell and broke and they replaced straight away no problems). They also helped with taxis etc. Comfortable bed- 2 big bouncy pillows each Clean rooms Great location- 5 min tricycle from main town (better for relaxing) Nice continental breakfast Main spaces also always kept clean
Shower needs a floor separator/guard from the rest of the bathroom because the whole floor gets soaked.
Good sized rooms and great location by the beach
Simple but very good accommodation near El Nido with beautiful sunset every evening. Very nice staff.
Perfeito pra copiar e colar no Booking 👇 Nossa experiência foi simplesmente incrível. Sem dúvida, foi o melhor hotel que ficamos em toda a nossa viagem pelas Filipinas. A equipe é extremamente prestativa, organizada e atenciosa. O ambiente é impecavelmente limpo e muito confortável. A cama, os travesseiros, a roupa de cama e o ar-condicionado fizeram muita diferença na qualidade da estadia. O banheiro não tem box tradicional, apenas uma cortina, mas existe um desnível que funciona super bem, então não atrapalha em absolutamente nada a experiência. O café da manhã é maravilhoso e a localização é perfeita. Fica muito perto de onde saem os principais passeios, e eles ainda têm parceria com uma agência que busca você no próprio hotel e organiza tudo. É muito prático e facilita demais a logística. Outro ponto que nos marcou muito foi o cuidado com o hóspede. Tivemos um erro na nossa reserva e acabamos deixando um dia a menos. Mesmo sem obrigação nenhuma, a equipe tentou contato e ainda se ofereceu para organizar nossas coisas e transferir para outro local. Fizeram tudo com muito cuidado e estava tudo impecável. Isso realmente fez toda a diferença. Fica de frente para o mar, o ambiente é agradável e acolhedor. Com certeza voltaríamos e recomendamos para qualquer pessoa que vá para a região.
Tudo perfeito, nada a reclamar.
Het uitzicht is fenomenaal met prachtige zonsondergangen. Het ontbijt was lekker. De mensen waren vriendelijk. De kamer zelf was niet zo bijzonder maar voldeed.
De airco werkte niet goed.
Posizione ottima , ci hanno fornito di scarpe/maschera per L escursion (sono a disposizione di tutti). Abbiamo noleggiato con loro lo scooter super comodo Abbiamo preso qualche ora il kayak non ce l’hanno inserito al check out. Loro sono gentilissimi , sembra una conduzione familiare , credo di sì . Molto accigliente
Bagno “esterno” dove abbiamo fatto la doccia prima di partire dopo aver lasciato la stanza (avevamo il volo la sera) un po’ piccolo/sporco/senza punti di appoggio
Good location to be walking distance to the town and on the water - great if you want to do boat tours as they go from close by or if you want to kayak out to papaya beach. The hotel had kayaks. Friendly staff
Aircon was slightly noisy but there was also a fan so could put that instead when sleeping.
De ligging is aan het strand. Maar kamers zonder ramen weiger ik. Heb ander verblijf moeten zoeken zonder refund!
Oud gebouw alles moet vernieuwd worden. Personeel ook korrekt maar niet bepaald vriendelijk. Duidelijk ontevreden klanten gewoon.
The location, beach front. Very close to the bussatation
The property is old, the bed is making sounds ;) and the sound of the AC is very loud at night. The balcony is shared. So at the early morning a lot of people are having their breakfast.
Très bon rapport qualité prix. Chambre propre. Très bon petit déjeuner avec une vue face à la mer. Personnel très accueillant et aux petits soins. Possibilité de se faire masser dans la chambre. Sur place, nous pouvons également louer des scooters. 5 minutes en scooter du centre et 5 minutes de la plage. À côté du port pour les excursions.
La Clim fait du bruit.
bonne emplacement, hôtel très familiale, à l'écoute beaucoup de service de location disponible kayak et scooter pas cher du tout ! très propre !!!!! changement de serviette tout les jours un hôtel que nous avons adoré
The staff were awesome and pleasant. The location was good and convenient. They were very accommodating. They had snacks and water available in the lobby. They had motorbike rentals on site. The breakfast every morning was very good and a wide selection to choose from. Will definitely return when visiting the area.
Nothing
L’emplacement au bord de la plage et proche des animations La gentillesse du personnel
La clim bruyante dans la chambre
Personnel très sympa Bam et son équipe au service et toujours avec le sourire, un plaisir. Petit déjeuner copieux et très bon. Restaurants agréables à proximité ainsi que massages sur la plage. Superbe coucher de soleil 1,8km du centre ďEl Nido
Le parking difficile, il faut savoir manœuvrer en marche arrière Le bruit permanent des bateaux le matin Impossible d'ouvrir la porte fenêtre sur la terrasse. Pas de ménage sur 2j.
It was run well with very nice breakfasts included. The staff were extremely helpful, our room was kept very clean and we were given free beach towels each day. It has a great location close to El Nido and with restaurants close by. The beach which is right on it’s doorstep has amazing sunsets each night.
Nothing to complain about
Simple accommodations that had all of the necessities. The A/C in the room and the included breakfast were nice additions. They also have simple gear (dry bags) and snacks/drinks, which were handy.
I didn't love the location, as I was expecting more of an actual beach but there is not a beach at this property that you can properly lay a towel out on and sunbathe. There are nearby resorts that have this, but I didn't try to park myself in front of these. On the flip side of this, there are a few bars/restaurants on the beach just a few hundred meters away, which was nice for watching the sunset and grabbing dinner.
La ubicación, las vistas, la zona… Está lo suficientemente lejos de el nido para estar tranquilo pero cerca como para llegar andando. Es un sitio muy tranquilo y se puede dormir sin ruido. La vista a la playa son excelentes. El colchón era muy cómodo y la habitación relativamente grande .
El baño está un poco antiguo y habría que reformarlo pero comparando con otros alojamientos en Filipinas, está bien . No esperemos las condiciones de Europa, pero está limpio y las toallas las cambian a diario .
Place is clean and view is nice. The staff are very approachable and helpful. Hospitality is top notch. Breakfast with the view is so nice and food is great & had a lot of varieties to choose from. Worth it and highly recommend!
A bit of smell in the toilet, don’t know where it’s coming from. They provide air freshener to help ease with the smell. I’m not sure if it’s only our room that had this issue. Other than that, everything is ok.
De lokatie
Kleine, lelijke kamer
It was on the beach
No safe box in room. Next to bars that played loud music to early morning!!!
