Aircon in the dorms isn't great, but the villas are good. Had a few issues with the water and the communal showers aren't the best, but again the villas are good.

Good location, but you need to rent a ped to get up the hill! Very close to the beach and other areas. Staff were really helpful and all lovely. Has a small pool that over looks the beach and it's right next to the zipline.

I booked this accommodation fee months ago. But they said no 2 double rooms and upgraded for us..however we felt a bit isolated big room in front of a bit noisy road… wasn’t sure upgraded…

Love view from main reception/ restaurant area. All staff are friendly.

The pictures of the swimming pool are not recent as there are new rooms built in front of the pool.

The staff didn’t seem to care. They didn’t greet you when you when you arrived, and both days we had a reservation they had problems with the booking, so we didn’t get the room we had already paid for, so we had to book a villa (with fantastisk view) instead, but to the double cost. They didn’t compensate.

Fantastic view from the villas and restaurant. Probably the best. A man in the reseption desk was very nice and helpful.

When we arrived, we were told to communicate with one of the stores staff to have free shuttle arranged to pick us up. However, they had no idea what we are talking about or what we ant from them. It took us 40 minutes back and forth until we finally reached the hostel to come and pick us up. So I would suggest you somehow communicate in advance so you don't have to stay in the heat. Food and drink are quite pricey. Small bottle of water cost me 100php. But you can refill it afterwards The biggest disappointment was that we weren't informed that the pool is closed. That was the main reason I booked this hostel as the pool area has an amazing views. And then on the day of check out, the cleaning works were complete but we didn't had a chance to use it. Don't trust tuk tuks they offer, to take us to certain location they quoted us 500pho more than we got charge in the end by someone else. A lot places are still under construction

The views are BREATHTAKING! This is the best thing about this hostel. Beds are comfortable Zip line to another island is just next to it Free shuttle service as the property is on A VERY steep hill Clean rooms and a/c working properly Beaches are just down the hill Very peaceful and relaxing

Hostel is on cliff, so hard to go by walk, always need to ask hostel to arrange car. Before checkin i already told them my arrival time but no one show up till 25 min in hot weather. Very Very slow net, even if you have sim net. Very limited food option for vegetarian.

Staff very nice, view from restaurant is so beautiful. Well support for transportation from or to hostel.

The pool was closed and there was no notification about this prior to arrival

The food is good. Beds are comfy. Nice view

the food and drinks were a bit expensive and other things like laundry and scooter hire too. the hill is no joke, be prepared for that. they do offer free tranfers from the bottom. l

it was a very a nice hostel and the bar had the best view. the room was very spacious and comfortable. the staff were super friendly and the food was delicious!

The staff where amazing and the view/location was stunning. The wifi did not meet expectations, but i know they are working on improving it. Was a bit disappointed to call them beforehand and recieve assurances that the wifi would be able to support my needs only to find out it didn't. Otherwise the hostel could have some minor fixes here and there, like in the bahtroom and improving the organization (remembering laundry and small things). Overall i am really happy about the stay though, because of the people there. The people there really put up on effort and you can really tell that they like working for the hostel and with eachother. This gives me strong belief that they will progress and end up having a wonderful 5/5 hostel in the near future!

The dorms are old and many things are broken. The Ac is the noisiest thing ever. I booked a tour at night and the next morning it was not booked, the lady from reception didn't know and called last minute also they take a generous fee on top of the fixed price so I recommend booking in town on your own. They have a restaurant, the service is really slow, the food is not good and more expensive compared to other places.

The common area is really nice and it has an amazing view.

Stayed in January 2024

Rooms and washrooms were very old and unappealing, in serious need of renovation and furnishings. Sinks barely worked and no soap provided. Room was inadequately lighted.

Fantastic hilltop view, cafe, pool, amazing staff that are genuinely happy to see you, cool room. They also provide free lifts to the hostel as it is atop a very steep hill.

Location was a bit inconvenient at the top of a hill - but made easier by the taxi service they offered

Lovely views and very helpful and accommodating staff

I think that the facilities could be better and the details in both the rooms and the common areas. It has potential but polishing aspects such as the windows, the doors, the wall paintings, the lights, etc Be aware that if has a huge slope to arrive there . Thankfully, the hotel offers up free transportation to the nearby area . I would recommend extending this transportation to a larger area or offer up free motos for the guests (the price is high for the current offerings)

The views and the restaurant is the best of Lexias Hostel

Comfort room and kinda hard to go get to even they have a shuttle service. But if you like quiet and peaceful vibe i would recommend this.

It’s a mission when you want to go somewhere because of a crazy steep hill, but the hostel offers free pick ups and drop offs which was very comfortable

The loveliest staff and amazing views

The hostel pool is out of order and the WiFi is not really good enough/cuts out too much for this to be a co-work space. The water was often not working and there was sometimes a bad smell from the drains in our bathroom. There also is a lot of construction work going on in and around the hostel so it can be noisy. We made the best of it but it seems quite different from the pictures and description!

The location is outside El Nido (150peso ~10mins) in a quieter area and a short walk to a complex with shops, food and a lovely beach where you can swim and sit in the hotel bars. Very nice, kind, helpful staff who helped us organise tours and were very communicative over WhatsApp when’s arranging pick up/drop off. They were really accommodating when we arrived before checkin and let us have a different room until ours was ready. The food from the bar was lovely and there was live music one of the nights which was cool.

There was no water and electricity for very large portions of our stay. This made it very difficult to do anything. The hostel was right at the top of a very very steep hill. One day we had to go two days without a shower before they eventually offered us a bucket and a cup to shower with. The pool was also out of service during our stay - we were not previously informed of this.

The dorms were lovely and each bed had plenty of space. The view from the bar was amazing and the staff were friendly.

We couldn't enjoy the pool because it was under construction. It would be nice to have an open window in the room so it can smell better.

The staff is really friendly, they helped us with everything. The views are breathtaking, waking up with that is just wow.

The WiFi. I'm sorry to say but we booked this hostel because the reviews said it was a good place for digital nomads. They have a Coworking space and a lot of WiFi routers. It was very important for me to have good Internet connection because I had to work but the Internet was the worst I had ever experienced in a hostel. It was extremely frustrating. I spend the entire day on trying to make it work. In the end I bought a simcard with data to make a WiFi hot-spot for my phone. That didn't work either because the connection is just really really bad in the hostel. In the end I lost a lot of money because I couldn't work and had to tell my clients that I couldn't deliver what I had promised. Maybe I was just unlucky with the Internet those days when I was staying, but we only booked the hostel because they promised us to have good WiFi. The staff tried to help as much as they could but I think the area is just really badly connected to Internet. I would still recommend the hostel just not for the WiFi 😊

Beautiful location on top of a cliff. The view from the restaurant is amazing. The food is some of the best food we had in the Philippines. The staff is super friendly (both from the hostel and from the restaurant) and they will do anything to help you. The beds are really good, the bathrooms are fine and the rooms are big. You are close to an amazing beach and a super cool zipline. And you can always take a tricycle to the city. I really loved staying in this hostel. The atmosphere is really really great and there's a pool table and a swimming pool. So many cute dogs and cats and the cutest little puppy 😭 When you get there you'll have to go up a really steep road. You can walk it but it might be too hard with your luggage. They will send a shuttle for you if you contact them when you arrive. Just call them on WhatsApp. I would recommend you to buy a cheap sim card in advance (we didn't have one so we had to go to the beach and ask someone for WiFi) and call the hotel. The shuttle will come and pick you up super fast.
