Golden Monkey Cottages

NON PRENOTARE MAI QUESTO HOTEL, È UNA TRUFFA. Questo hotel è stata la PEGGIORE ESPERIENZA della mia vita. All'arrivo abbiamo scoperto che NON C'ERA ACQUA CALDA, lo scarico della doccia non funzionava, c'erano centinaia di formiche, scarafaggi e il personale è la cosa più scortese di sempre. Siamo riusciti a trascorrere mezz'ora nella stanza perché non potevamo nemmeno fare la doccia dopo un lungo volo e tanto meno dormire lì circondati da insetti. Sono stato in ostelli molto migliori di questo presunto hotel a 3 stelle, che non è nemmeno super economico. Abbiamo dovuto prenotare un altro hotel e il Golden Monkey Beach Hotel non ha voluto darci un rimborso. Il personale è scortese, minaccioso e sinceramente avevamo paura di alloggiare in un posto del genere. Inoltre non c'è alcuna sicurezza, è molto rumoroso ed è lontano dalla spiaggia e dal centro. ————- NO RESERVÉIS NUNCA EN ESTE HOTEL, ES UNA ESTAFA. Este hotel ha sido la PEOR EXPERIENCIA de mi vida. Al llegar, nos encontramos con que NO HAY AGUA CALIENTE, el desagüe de la ducha no traga, hay cientos de HORMIGAS, CUCARACHAS y el personal es lo más maleducado que Existe. Pudimos estar media hora en la habitación porque no podíamos darnos ni una ducha después de un vuelo largo y mucho menos dormir ahí rodeados de bichos. Lui è stato in ostelli mucho mejores que este supuesto hotel de 3 estrellas, que ni siquiera es que sea súper barato. Tuvimos que reservar otro hotel para pasar nuestra estancia y Golden Monkey Beach Hotel nos quiso devolver el dinero. El personal ha sido maleducado, amenazante y sinceramente da miedo estar en un lugar así. Además, no hay nada de seguridad, es muy ruidoso y está alejado de la playa y del centro.

Our stay was great. The rooms were spacious and we stayed in one on the seafront so had a lovely view. The food was also very good however they could add a few non pasta based options. The staff were very helpful and organised transfers, trips and laundry for us. The drains in the bathroom did smell a lot of the time however we are aware this may be common in the phillipines. The towels were clean however they left residue on your skin as though they were shedding. Overall would recommend a stay here

Some of the reviews were very dramatic, and frankly not a reflection of the experience I had at Golden Monkey. I loved the rooms, decor, bar (albeit intermittently attended), hammock and quick access to the beach. I would recommend taking a separate tricycles if you have anymore than two people and bags, otherwise your third will have to jump off during the narrow streets to the hotel! Also loved the cats Frida and Melon, their very own in house Golden Monkey!

We are very happy with our stay, the view was unbelievable! win win! Free breakfast was also a plus, basic Filipino Breakfast and they do serve European Breakfast. Walking distance to the town square, and we walk along the beach to get to the town square. However, the sign on the street is so small that the tricycle driver have to ask me several times the name of the hotel which increases my suspicion if there is such a hotel or not. :) The road going to this hotel is so narrow that no car can fit, but only tricycle or motorcycle.

Bad experience! Couldn t sleep, insects biting us while in bed, didn t know what it was, we were constantly using mosquito cream.before going to.sleep but no effect... Then, the third day we woke up at 6 50 am, with the bed full of ANTS, big ones, on our head , hands, body, didn t stop coming, horrific experience to wake up like this!! The stuff super unhelpful, they offer just to change the sheets😅, because the cause of the ants is natural, the rain is coming,maybe🤣🤣. Also, refused to.pay us back for the next night that was paid already, but we checked out anyway and addressed the problem to booking! Avoid this hotel.at all costs!

This property is such a gem! I love how secluded and peaceful it is, away from all the noise of the town. It's also beachfront, so you can go for a dip whenever you want on the clear waters of Palawan. Since it's secluded, it's a little far from the town proper, probably a 15-20 minute walk or a 5 minute tricycle ride which they offer for free, just message them whenever you need a ride. Our room was at the 3rd floor which was so spacious, we had our own balcony with a hammock and the best view of the waters. Staff is amazing too, July at the front desk helped us out with everything, from van transfers to booking a massage, she was so nice and truly the highlight of our stay here. The other staff at the restaurant (breakfast and evening), and the kuyas who drove us with the tricycle are all so nice and warm andbalways very accommodating. It's free breakfast too! Only wish is for them to have more breakfast options but otherwise everything was so great. I'll stay here again in a heartbeat when I go back.

Bathroom was very old, needs a remodel, towels were old and floor matt was a rag

This is a fabulous place with sublime sunsets and the beach on the doorstep. Wonderful accommodation, walking distance to El Nido. The only problem is needing a scooter into town but it's not really a problem and the hotel accommodates so well and the tuk tuks are free. Staff couldn't do enough to help us, a really wonderful experience, book here for your perfect stay in El Nido !

Very relaxing place, clean and good staff. Keep it up. God bless
