Location

Great to chill. Very nice host and beautiful area and beach. The food was very good.

“Read the entire review. The place is not for everyone. But its not the worse.”

Staff is welcoming, warm and responsive. The beds are comfortable and the Internet is fast (when there's power). The view it's nice but if you stay more than 2 days, it's becomes just a view. The nearby community made our stay magical, if you want to feel and see the true Philippines, it's a good spot to visit. Good coffee (when it's made out of beans not the instant one)

“Beautiful serene environment with attentive service.”

Absolutely serene environment. If you’re looking for a place to unwind and de-stress this is it. Small resort with highly attentive service. Ivan was amazing, and organised everything we needed.

“Great place to disconnect. They should improve food service.”

The rooms were great. Also the views and the location far away from turistas.

“Great, Relaxing Stay at DK2”

Our family had a fantastic stay at DK2. It's such a relaxing and beautiful place. They organised a tour for us which was very special with no crowds. The meals were delicious and beds very comfortable. The family at DK2 are very kind and went out of their way to ensure we had everything we needed.

“Unbelievably beautiful 😻”

What a paradise! Pure souls and Devine peace ✌️

Friendly but professional

“Great guesthouse with resort prices and terrible services”

LOCATION – 9/10 The setting is stunning. The views are incredible, and just to the left, we spot a beautiful coral reef with vibrant violet corals that felt almost otherworldly. The location is private, isolated, peaceful, and truly feels exclusive and outside the chaos and bad smell of El Nido.

“Peaceful oasis”

It reminded me so much of this calming oasis I found in Mexico, the dogs playing in the sand. Highly recommend for anyone who wants to disconnect for a bit :) And go on the Special tour! Could easily stay 2 weeks.

“Not as good as expected”

Lovely location, quiet, beautiful beach. There are only 2 cabins, one has a private bathroom and sleeps 6 although it would be a very tight fit! The other cabin has a shared bathroom and shared living room between 2 rooms.

“A True Hidden Paradise – 10/10 Experience!”

We had the most amazing stay at DK2! The hosts were incredibly kind and went above and beyond to make our stay unforgettable. Their warm hospitality truly made us feel at home. The location is a unique gem – perfect for relaxing, swimming, and enjoying their private tours directly from the beach. It felt like a little paradise far away from mass tourism. The facilities were great, with everything you could possibly need for a comfortable and relaxing stay. We spent a lot of time just sitting on the porch and enjoying the view. Don’t miss the chance to experience DK2 for yourself. We will definitely return if we get the opportunity!

“Beautiful but needs improvement”

This resort is so difficult to review! I liked the people, the bay is just beautiful, but it has a lot of unfulfilled potential. They blame the distance to the road and the recent startup, but it seems they were just in a hurry to open up instead of fine tuning first. + tranquil and very beautiful bay + clean + tasteful + incredibly comfy bed with quality bed sheets + free water + nice outside bathroom with warm water + clean food + cute cosy porch in front of the room, nice sun beds around the property + we got a walkie talkie when going kayaking

A true gem! A family run resort with super service. Very good restaurant with both Asian and Western alternatives, and if you want something not on the menu just talk to the chef and she will fix it for you. The location is beautiful, you are almost alone on a beach and if you want, they will arrange the same boat trips that you do in El Nido, but private at a fair price. Or even better, you design your own and pick the best from the different tours. We were a bit afraid of not having A/C but it turned out to be just fine, there is always a nice breeze at the resort and the fan by the bed does the job. Loved the beds also by the way. Service and family feeling is really what stands out at this resort, from the booking until we left, just ask for something, like massage, and they will fix it for you.

“Lovely location but overpriced”

The location is lovely, very quiet but very beautiful... nice beach with the best views. Lovely staff and the bungalow is big and comfortable. Even though the bathroom looks much better on the pictures the in reality.

The staff was amazing and very helpful and super friendly. As this is a new family business they are super engaged. They organized a sunset tour to the beach on the neighboring island, which was amazing. Super quite place.

“An amazing lost spot in the Philippines”

Amazingly beautiful lost location in the middle of philippine nature. Very dedicated staff (native and half-native) willing to make the most out of my stay and improve for future guests. I didn't need them but they had many activities either possible or coming up soon. The spot, being not commonly known for the general tourism, is difficult to reach, but the staff was very informative and supportive so I could reach my destinations on time.

“A beautiful local experience in PARADISE”

DK2 resort is a beautiful hidden gem about 1.5 hour drive from El Nido, the staff can organise a driver for you or you can get your own way there privately. The people that work here, May and her children and the workers will go above and beyond to make sure your stay in comfortable. When I arrived I was travelling alone and incredibly home sick. They sat and chatted with me over dinner, sharing recommendations for places to try on the rest of my travels and some of their own stories. They were so hospitable, making me feel so comfortable and welcomed. The amenities are incredible, it’s been newly renovated and considering how remote the resort is, I was astounded at how all the materials and supplies had been so wonderfully selected. Things I loved most about my stay that made it stand out from anywhere I had been before was seeing how important being environmentally conscious was to May and her family as well as the importance of caring for their workers and the community they live in. Small details like having glass straws and not using paper to do the check in information showed me how dedicated these people are to the environment. May out sources some of the work at the resort to local workers who are looked after by the family so well, if you’re lucky the workers children might be around showing you local sea life and playing on the beach. Tours for island hopping are also done through local people from the village. If you’re not already convinced to come stay here, the food!!! The food is incredible. Prepared by their chef, with the most local ingredients. Fish caught that day by locals and purchased by May, coconuts gathered from their trees, other produce collected at the local market only 5min drive away. And with your breakfast, enjoy a coffee machine made coffee - amazing. Don’t like Filipino food? All good, the families Spanish roots ensure you are also provided with some western options as well.

“Horrible”

Nothing as I have never been there and they fooled me.

“A bit disappointed”

A peaceful and small family business with a friendly host. Complementary breakfast was ok. They try their best. Good internet.
