Lihim Resorts

Staffs, cleanliness & peaceful

The staff was amazing and beautiful property! The other resorts we stayed on provided a more luxurious experience for the fraction of the cost!

Although great property I don’t think is great value for money. We had to get climb quite a bit of stairs to get to our room and it was rainy season so roads where inaccessible so you have to wait on the boat to be ferried back into town!

Superb-amazing location. Close to the city but still isolated and quiet. The villas are spacious and often cleaned or refreshed. Staff are very accommodating and will take a good care of all you needs. One of the best hotel we’ve been in the Philippines

Really i like the hotel because of our Buttler (Anne ) She’s outstanding-customer service and always around us for everything The view hotel its fantastic and also the food Location is nice

Right at the hills overlooking the water and islands

The refrigerator wasn’t cool and we couldn’t change the setting to make it cooler. We caught Traveler’s Diarrhea I think from infected food or water (ice).

Very accommodating and friendly staff. A+++ communication and service.Very clean resort and villas.

The view and atmosphere was amazing. Staff was incredible as well. We said, "this is so beautiful" at least 10x a day.

This is not a hard negative, but a consideration for those traveling with elderly or anybody with health concerns. Getting to and from the room was difficult BUT to get the views, you have to be up the mountain. The funicular is the easiest way, but it's shared and moves slow. Stairs are great for the fit.

Very secluded and difficult to get to. If you want to disappear and not explore outside the resort, then this is for you. Otherwise the effort it took to get to the resort isn't worth it. So many steps to get anywhere within the resort. The views are immaculate and the service was great!

Breakfast was good but not great. Service and friendliness of staff and their training was first class. The food was too heavy with insufficient light choices or there needed to be greater selection in the light choices such as fruit, yoghurt, cereals, etc.Butler service was attentive and very responsive and super friendly. If anything the WhatsApp communication was a little too much; you kept feeling you had to keep referring to your phone which is not the purpose of a vacation in my book.The outdoor bar at Henri's was superb as was the spa treatment at Panari Spa

The resort looks a little old and tired in some parts and appears in need of maintenance. Also, the view from Gana at high tide was great but not so at low tide. Hard to know what to suggest to fix this but it does spoil the vibe a little.Whilst the villa was great, the need to keep going outside to access the refrigerator was weird and a minor hassle

The location was perfect. The view, private pool, and staff were highlights of the trip. That plus the privacy. We rarely saw other guests if we didn’t want to.

In spite of them asking at the beginning and we telling them when ordering food, they gave us things with nuts (which my wife is allergic to) TWICE. The first time we caught it on time, they apologized, replaced the dish, and gave us free drinks.The second time we didn’t catch it in time and my wife had a reaction which ruined our last night there. They insisted the cheesecake didn’t have any nuts, but there must have been some nuts in the base of the cheesecake.The staff was very apologetic and did their best. I blame the chef for not knowing what allergens are in the food they make. If my wife’s allergies were worse, that could’ve killed her. For a place this expensive I expected MUCH better.

The location of the this resort was amazing! Secluded and only available for guests as it is nestled away from the hustle and bustle. 5 star service from our butlers Mars and Neil - they went beyond our expectations and the service/food and secenry was breathtaking- looking to visit again next year for my birthday.

Amazing view from the villa, great amenities and impressive room and bathroom. Butlers assigned to us were very helpful and responsive.

Nothing, everything was great!!!

The beautiful setting & spacious villa.The view from Henris at sunset.

The food was very poor and of a 3 star standard.Breakfast was really disappointing. Even basic eggs or an omelette are inedible. Resort lacks ambience. Funicular out of service means you rely on cars a lot.Staying in a secluded 5 star resort Id expect top notch dining facilities and all items on the menu to be available but many fish dishes were unavailable.

Gorgeous resort in a more private, quiet spot in front of the el nido bay area. Still close to El nido town however will need to use a boat or car from the resort to get into town. Alternatively you can rent a bike from the resort for the day to explore which we find quite easy and affordable. I love how peaceful and beautiful the design of the villas are. All the staff are so friendly and all know your name. Felt like a very exclusive resort where you tend to find more couples at this resort than families or kids. You get a 24 hr butler assigned to you who looks after you your whole stay, anything you need you can just message them and they organise for you. We had Ching and Jude look after us for our 3 nights there. They were both so helpful, friendly and really responsive. If we needed anything it was organised straight away. Our butler delivered a plate of filipino small desserts every night which was such a nice touch. Along with other complimentary items in our stay we got free airport transfers, complimentary 30 min massage, Buffett breakfast every morning, bottle of wine and Fruits. This resort is so comfortable and enjoyable stay for relaxing.

Can't fault anything about this resort its perfect.

Our villa, Duli, top notch quality. The staff especially Neil and Eunice our butlers, Ray, Nicky, Angelo, and Jovelyn from food service treated us very well. The security guard on the night we wanted to go to the town, he walked us out to the road where there are lights with his flash light. I forgot to get his name. The spa, Pamela and Erika for making our therapy so special. Our island hopping tour guide, Rio, making the whole experience memorable and wonderful.

The stairs and a lot of bugs although we understand we’re kind of the middle of a jungle

Service was beyond superb. Everything done with a smile and graciousness. The views from Henri, their onsite restaurant were magnificent with the most stunning of sunsets.

View from our Villa was fantastic.

Our villa was high up the hill so every time we needed to go to the restaurant or any part of the resort we had to call for a ride. Did not like the carbon footprint of having 4x4s ferrying guests to and from their Villa’s. Resort is not suitable for the very young or the old ones. Personal butler experience was a bit lacking. One of our assigned butler, who met us at the airport and dropped us off, lacked personal touch and barely spoke to us. Most of the communication with her was just thru the what’s up messaging.

The location is very good and close to town and airport

Bathroom shower the water is weak

Butler service was very good. Shout out to Ellie and Angelo. You're the best! The sunset at the rooftop of Henri's was amazing. The rooms were good too.

The beach wasn't good for swimming and the pool was very small.

The butler service was probably the best part. And the roof top is nice to visit as you can see beautiful sunset for my there!

The transfers aren’t included. The town was 10/15 mins away and the journey itself was a bit rough as the rods which leads to the main road is very bumpy. Too many flies were found in our room. Breakfast choices were limited. Not so great.
