Floresita's Beach Resort

If you are looking for a quite place to spend few days surrounded by nature in front of the beach and away from the crowds of El Nido, this is your place. I came here manly because of diving with manta rays. This very simple Filipino style hotel is placed in between the only two scuba diving shops in the area. If you look for luxury, don't come here. You only will find simple rooms in front of the beach surrounded by nature with a delicious local run restaurant. The a/c rooms are larger than the fun room I stayed in. But for my backpack standards, the room was good enough for a couple of diving days.

We had a nice Stay at Floresita’s. The resort is on the beachfront of quiet Sibaltan town, about 1 hour from El Nido town. The view is nice and there are benches, hammocks and chairs on the beach. However you have to walk far to swim as the tide is low. The huts were basic and small (only bed and bathroom with no door) but fine for their purpose of only sleeping there at night. This place is perfect for resourceful travellers who want to experience “simple life/camping” experience. Electricity at night, no wifi when we were there and barely any network. It felt good to disconnect! However you might want to plan your next destination before you get there! The staff was friendly and helpful to some extent, especially for scooter rental as well as arranging our transport to and from the resort. The included breakfast was simple but good. We overall had a positive experience and would stay there again.

The staff is absolutely amazing. I literally felt like family being there. They are wonderful. The room was clean and the property was beautiful. If you want a place to relax and get away this is it. At night the waves hitting the beach were peaceful. They have several different options of rooms and have a magnificent view of the beach. I will return. The staff really make this place one of a kind. I literally felt like I was leaving family.

Lovely, tranquil place away from the hustle and bustle of El Nido. Located right on the beautiful long beach, 5 minutes walk to Sibaltan village for some basic shopping. Delicious meals served directly in the property. We opted for island hopping tour - definitely worth doing, different atmosphere and sights than the ones organized in El Nido (which are worth it too!). Very relaxing stay in stylish huts made of natural materials.
