Breakfast very simple but did the job.

I throughly enjoyed my stay at Mina Grande. Small, basic but comfortable room. I upgraded to one of the two bungalows with a sea view for a small extra charge. Fantastic view and definitely worth the extra. Walking distance to restaurants and a short tricycle ride into El Nido town. A lot quieter than El Nido town.

The price point

The location is strategic

Only complaint would be the noise of the air con

The staff were super welcoming and all round amazing! My boyfriend and I came down with some serious food poisoning(tour lunch), and staff ensured we were comfortable, arranged for us to get to a doctor, and even visited us with bananas to check that we were okay! As for the room, there was all you could ask for - comfy bed, working air con + fan, and a hot shower The location was perfect, very close to the dock for tours. Just a short walk along the beach and you’ll come across plenty of lovely restaurants. A quick tuktuk away from El Nido town for 100 PHP. I would definitely recommend Mina Grande and stay again :) Thank you!!

Great little stay for a few days, great location near various beaches within El Nido. Rooms are clean and tidy along with free facilities such as water, tea and coffee. Staff really helpful!

Cool place, cozy room, clean with a/c . Breakfast to be improved, on quantity and variety.

Stayed in March 2025

Bathroom can be improved, but there is everything necessary. Only the hairdryer is missing.

Excellent place to spend your vacation in el nido. You are always ready to start a island tour or watch the best sunset with a beer. Richard, the host, is very kind and always helpful!! Drinking water always available for guests.

Bathroom is basic but good enough.

Great stay right on the beach! Location is perfect. Room has everything you need for a short stay in El Nido. Aircon and fan worked well. Scooter hire was handy. Also enjoyed breakfast! (Option for Filipino breakfast with rice or an egg toastie)

Smell in the bathroom. El Nido is overall very expensive, taking this into consideration, the room was very good.

Beachfront location. Owner/manager was very helpful, booked our trip and shared van for us. 5min walk to all the tour operators for island hopping in the morning

Mina Grande is just a great place to stay. The property is clean, located directly in front of Corong Corong beach where you can admire beautiful sunset. The location is very convenient too because it’s about 5 minutes walk to the pier where all the tours start. There is a coffee area in the garden where you can get free water and coffee at anytime. The rooms are tiny but comfortable, including a fridge which is a big plus to keep your drinks cold. The staff is just amazing, all of them are very kind, friendly and helpful. They could sort out an extra night for us since the ferry to Coron that we supposed to catch was cancelled on the day of our departure. Definitely 💯 recommend!

Wonderful place, a hidden gem, set in beautiful gardens. Room small but clean and comfortable. Tea/coffee station in the garden and straight onto the beach. Staff friendly and the breakfast sandwich they offer is perfect.

The whole bathroom gets soaked including toilet when you have a shower. Need a shower curtain to stop it and also a squeegee for the floor as the drains are slow so water gets everywhere. Breakfast is either a friend egg inbetween white bread or one pancake and banana. Also no need to use waste plastic wrap on top of the plate. Not good for environment

On the beach. You can walk to numerous restaurants on the beach. It was quiet and out of the fray of EL Nido. Tricycle ride to town 100 pesos.

Small bathroom. As most of the places in El Nido, it’s quite expensive for what it is

Nice place on beach front. Many restaurants nearby accessible directly from the beach. The city center is around 20min walk. The room is clean. Wifi and AC are ok.

The water was brown with a bad odor. No cold drinking water and no refrigerator that was supposed to be there. The pillows were super hard 😪

The view 😍 and the staff

Beautiful place!

The breakfast every morning consisted of white toasted bread with egg, a little more variation would have been nice!

Very good location, right on the beach (tip: rent a kayak from the owner). You could rent motorcycles at the property, do your laundry, etc! We were out of the busy city area and really enjoyed this - the busy part is very close but it really felt like this was a better spot to relax and enjoy the beach.

- not much space for our stuff in the room, only one really small table - we didn't knew that we have to ask for room cleaning, so after 3 days are room and bathroom was quite messy

- nice beachfront, but rocky and not for swimming, you need to walk a bit for the sandy parts - water barrel with coffee and tea - comfy bed - modest breakfast inclueded in the price

The only issue is the strong smell of rust when opening the tap water or shower.

Couldn’t ask for a better location!

Stayed in April 2024

The owners of this property were good, but they weren’t very welcoming, every ask seemed an issue. Doesn’t hurt to smile and say hello to your guests every once in a while. Also, they weren’t great with communication, in the morning we had to go and find them to ask them if we could have breakfast. Another thing we weren’t best pleased with was that they didn’t once replenish our towels or bedding, or clean our room in fe on our 4 night stay. We aren’t fussy and will happily go with the same towel for a few days, but the towels weren’t the best quality and we really could have done with fresh ones. Our room after one day was full of ants, sometimes can’t be helped I understand but it was a downfall. The breakfast was small, but it was sufficient. I’m We weren’t happy with the children who lived there as we saw them numerous times chasing dogs away, and even scaring them off with a slingshot, throwing sand at them, pretending to hit them. It was quite sad to watch as no animal deserves that, the parents need to teach them better.

We liked the stay overall, our little cottage was looking out onto the beach and was so peaceful. The location was good, and some lovely friendly dogs came to visit us daily. The property had a hot and cold water station, where you could make a tea or coffee anytime, this was a lovely addition.

There was an opportunity in terms of setting up our tour, they missed to inform the travel agency so we waited for more than an hour before we were picked up.

I liked that the place is at the beach front. The view was very relaxing.

Stayed in March 2024

Too much smoking in the public space right off my porch. A few power outages, but never more than an hour. Only one outlet worked in the room though the staff loaned me an extension cord.

Breakfast was delicious though not a lot of variety. The staff were all fantastic - ready to help at any time. The motorbike rental was great, the tours booked were excellent, the location is perfect for getting a good night's sleep while being close enough to restaurants & beach bars.

Stayed in January 2024

The breakfast was included and it was okay but could be improved. The water was clean but the tap was rusty

The location was amazing, beautiful beach at the front. Nice staff, good size room with air con and fan. Overall a good value and we had a good stay, also no noise compared to other part of El Nido, easy acc as to lots of restaurants on the beach front

The water pressure wasn’t strong enough and the smell of the water coming out from has a fishy smell.

The ambiance was great, perfect location if you love the beachfront area this is the place for you! Hot beverages at the little hut were free.

Mina Grande was a hidden gem. Perfect location and amazing staff. Would absolutely recommend it for anyone visiting El Nido 😀
