“The best of the best.”
I could not fault this place in the slightest! Balai Ko is an oasis within an oasis, and the perfect place to wind down and chill out. Such an incredible group of people that make you feel welcome from the second you arrive.

“Thank you Monica and Family for the great stay! It was amazing and I hope to come back.”
Very chilled, away from busy El Nido, the family that runs the business was very nice and really helpful with everything that I needed and arranging private tricycle. I spend NY eve with them and it was very nice. Food is good too and very nice drinks at the bar.

We had a wonderful experience staying at this apartment. The location was absolutely amazing in front of the beach and the best part was the hospitality – the people were incredibly welcoming and helpful.
