“Best Villa in el nido”
The best accommodation we’ve booked in El Nido! Staff are so friendly and helpful, easy to communicate and the onsite restaurant serves really yummy food with very reasonable price! So is the Spa we booked for 90 mins, very relaxing we didn’t leave for 2 days! The staff came to the room with a cake for my birthday surprise and sang for me, it was beautiful and much appreciated

“Fabulous views”
The view from the room was amazing and the staff were always very helpful with excellent good communication. The stairs upto the room would be a challenge if you aren't fit but they do warn you in advance on it. The view is worth it. Breakfast was great and portions were quite big! Also booked a massage which was excellent!

“A wonderfully welcome stay in paradise”
Karuna is a gem amongst the hustle and bustle of El Nido. We stayed in the 2 bedroom apartment with our 2 children (7&9 years) and it was wonderful. Views to die for from the front bedroom and whole living space, loads of room and great facilities. The place was cleverly set up e.g. a water cooler in each room to reduce waste, and there were fans and air conditioning and if you wanted to cook there was a well equipped kitchen. The breakfast was bountiful and delicious and the restaurant was the best food we had in El Nido at a very reasonable price, and having the dining area look over the pool and sweeping views of the bay made for spectacular meals. Would stay here again for sure.

“Good stay”
I stayed in four different rooms/tents, the glamping is newer and i prefer the glamping of karuna on the Other Side the management is better on the villa Side. Special mention to Geo and Jane who took Some frustation away with there excellent service by the pool.

“Amazing views”
The photos don’t do it justice, stunning property with amazing views! The infinity pool is lovely with a stunning back drop. We stayed in Joglo 4, good location close to the pool, restaurant and spa. Beautiful view from our room too. The food was also really good and not expensive. Staff were lovely and very welcoming. Massages at the spa were very relaxing. Overall highly recommend to stay here if you’re in El Nido.

“A blissful stay - stunning location!”
Stunning Balinese villa overlooking the beautiful Corong Corong bay. Nestled in a natural environment with our own gecko & frog in the bathroom! Saw Palawan hornbills in trees outside our balcony, lots of different coloured butterflies, a monkey as well! Staff were excellent at all times, hotel very well run. Everything organised very efficiently, with no fuss & requests acted on straight away. Easy to arrange transport to & from airport. Lovely welcome from Ellen at Reception & fantastic hardworking staff in the restaurant. Special thanks to Wilma for serving us so well & the chefs for the delicious food & juices. We also loved the massages - best ever! Heavenly infinity pool with breathtaking view - perfect for a complete mind & body reset! Thank you!

“A memorable gift of a Christmas family homecoming at Karuna El Nido’s Pool Villa”
The Pool Villa at Karuna El Nido Villas was exceptional! Beautifully designed with the intention of providing a refuge from the busyness of El Nido yet with a fantastic view of the limestone islands from atop a hill. The infinity pool is happily situated where you feel connected with the amazing view that’s infront of you. Its heated waters allowed our family to swim at night, with the mellow lighting. The amenities provided, along with the impeccable staff service made our family holiday memorable and fun. The complimentary breakfast offered a variety of choices that we enjoyed. The reception and welcome drinks served at our villa set the stage for a great holiday. The villa was very spacious to accommodate all six adults. The bedrooms, bathrooms and kitchen were put together with the purpose of meeting the needs of the guests. The cost was a bit high but worth it for a Christmas family homecoming holiday for us.
