I LOVED my stay here! Helen is the most wonderful host and person who will organise anything for you, from transport to a laundry service. She is also an AMAZING cook! You will be lucky to stay in one of her bamboo rooms, which are really comfortable. I can’t recommend it enough.

Featuring inner courtyard views, Kattegat Beachfront Villa provides accommodation with patio, around a few steps from Bucana Beach.

The location is absolutely beautiful—peaceful, serene, and away from the busyness of El Nido town. I have honestly never felt so relaxed during a trip. In just a few days, it felt like a full reset. Julius and Raya, who built and run the hotel, are incredibly kind and welcoming. As two girls travelling together, we felt completely safe and looked after the entire time. The beachside setting was perfect—we were more than happy to stay put, soak in the views, and unwind. There are a few lovely restaurants on the beach and local shops nearby for anything you need. The facilities were spotless and thoughtfully done. Everything felt clean, calm, and well cared for. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking to truly relax and enjoy a slower pace. A hidden gem, and somewhere I’d return to in a heartbeat.

The room was very clean. Also location is great if you want to stay in the center of nightlife or El Nido in general and do boat tours. It’s a bit noisy outside but for us it was okay. Facilities of the room are simple but again very clean and well maintained. Reception is liquor shop which made check in experience funny, everyone working in the place is great.

    We stayed here back in June for a couple of weeks. The house has everything you could possibly need, and it is perfect if you like to cook your own meals. The view from the balcony upstairs is gorgeous. Location is 10/10 as you stay only a few minutes walk from El Nido beach and all the boats for island hopping. Staff was very friendly and went above and beyond to ensure we had a nice stay. We lived among the locals and were very grateful for the experience!

    the experience is unique. You have the paradise only for you (we traveled on May). Maybe it's not the most comfortable place on earth but if you add authenticity to paradise you get exactly this. A perfect place to stay some days far of noise and worries. Just enjoying "your" beach near the locals. This is our Philippines dream 😊 Btw, the owner and family are really wonderful. Always helpful. It has been an important part of our experience.
