El Nido Resorts Miniloc Island - A rustic beachfront eco-resort with guided marine activities and panoramic bay views

El Nido Resorts Miniloc Island, rated 9.5/10 on Booking.com, is a 5-star eco-resort featuring thatch-roofed accommodations inspired by traditional Filipino coastal villages. The 50-room property includes Garden Cottages, Beachside Rooms, and Water Cottages, each with private verandas, wooden floors, and woven bamboo walls. Bacuit Bay views are prominent from Deluxe Seaview Rooms and Water Cottages. The Clubhouse Restaurant serves international dishes, while the beach bar offers snacks and drinks. Activities include snorkeling with resident Jack fish, island-hopping tours to Big and Small Lagoons, and kayaking through limestone cliffs. Miniloc Island is accessible via a 45-minute boat transfer from Lio Airport, with boat schedules synchronized to AirSwift flights. A continental breakfast is available each morning at Miniloc Island Resort.

Pros

The house reef allows snorkeling alongside 1.5-meter Jack fish and diverse marine life.

Proximity to the Big and Small Lagoons (0.5 km) and Snake Island for guided excursions.

Thatch-roofed rooms with indigenous materials provide an authentic island aesthetic.

Complimentary use of kayaks, paddleboards, and snorkeling gear for water activities.

Cons

Boat transfers are required to reach mainland El Nido, limiting spontaneous exploration.

The rustic design lacks modern luxuries like private pools or bathtubs in most room categories.
