Despite the swimming pool being renovated and our stay was in the middle of two typhoons (Tino and Uwan), room/amenities and staff were overwhelmingly attentive, accommodating and helpful. Apart from taking a private tour from Palawena (island hopping), we were also able to visit the Miniloc and Pangulasian islands during our stay. Special thanks to the front desk team (Devine, Mheanne and Fran?), food and beverage team (Sanders, Carla and Jocelyn), housekeeping (Christine) and Lifeguard Ed + security guy.

We would rate our stay 4/5, as it didn’t fully meet our expectations for a 5-star resort. We stayed in the Premier Suite (complimentary upgrade due to pool renovations). While the main pool was unavailable, the hotel was at only ~30% capacity, which made for a more peaceful experience, and they kindly offered complimentary access to the pool at Miniloc Island. That said, we did find the finishes in both the room and shared spaces to feel quite dated. This was especially noticeable in the bathrooms, where there were visible stains on the walls and floors. Check-in also felt a little impersonal — we weren’t offered welcome drinks, though we noticed other guests arriving later were. On the positive side, the staff were absolutely wonderful — warm, attentive, and truly 5/5 service. The bed was very comfortable, the AC worked perfectly, and breakfast was excellent. Overall, this may well be considered a 5-star resort in El Nido standards, but for those more accustomed to Western-style 5-star hotels, it’s good to keep expectations in check.

I chose this hotel because of its location on Lio Beach and good balance between being in quiet place but not too far from El Nido town (20 minutes and 300 pisos by Tuk Tuk). It's very close to the airport, where you will be met by someone from the hotel and then it's a very short ride in their golf buggy type shuttle to the hotel. The rooms are lovely and very spacious. We had one overlooking what should have been the pool area but that was under contstruction. I am still giving it 5 stars but we were only informed about this after we had made the booking. There is a pool at another hotel 5 minutes away but you have to reserve it and it looks quite small. The beach is stunning, with a great view of all the islands. SUP, kayak etc are all free. My only complaint here is that the life guards are the most overcautious and restrictive I have ever encountered. It was rainy season and even then, the sea was not rough and I didn't encounter any currents. However, you are told only to swim in between the hours of 6am and 6pm, very close to the hotel. I am a strong and experienced swimmer, but I don't take risks. I'd like to be able to judge myself and swim at my own risk. Aside from that minor moan, it's a lovely hotel and was very reasonable because of rainy season.

Generally good overall. The location property has a lot of bugs that attacked our family and got bitten quite a bit including inside the bedrooms. They have public doors that can cut off your finger if you’re not aware how the door opens because the proximity of the door handles to the other door are too close. They also have doors that cover a higher la ding which can cause you to trip. It’s not a ADA friendly location IMO. I pointed these out to management at checkout. Hopefully they will heed my suggestions and complaints about these to avoid future accidents and litigation.

Our first time in this hotel, the nightly rate was a little pricey so was expecting everything to be 100% better than usual. Our experience was just that. Staff was friendly and helpful. Location was just what we wanted. Has a private beach which was not as busy as the other beaches, and also has a big swimming pool right by the beach. There are also a few local fine restaurants within walking distance from the property along the beach area. I would highly recommend this place.

This was a more expensive hotel but you definitely get what you pay for. The food was phenomenal and there are tons of restaurants and shops close by within the vicinity. Everything around the hotel is pretty close but if you want to go into el nido more, it’s about a 20minute drive. My only suggestion is to not book anything through the hotel, it will just cost a bit more money. But all in all a wonderful stay, beautifully maintained and very comfortable with amazing rooms. The beach access is perfect, lots of things to do like free paddle board, kayak, snorkel gear to rent, and lots of chairs to lounge in

Highly recommend!

Had the most amazing stay at Seda Lio! Staff were so attentive and professional, special shout out to Eddie the lifeguard at the beach who made our stay 5* quality! Definitely agree with others who mentioned the hotel has an exclusive luxury feel given its location. The hotel offers complimentary water activities (paddle boarding, snorkelling, kayaking, windsurfing etc) and we spent a lot of time enjoying the ping pong table in the games room! Beautiful 5 min walk down the beach to some restaurants and shops or you can take a 20 min trike into el nido town. Had the best stay here!!
