We had an amazing vacation here for 5 nights. The beach view suite was spectacular! Everything was worth every penny. The views, sunsets, snorkeling at your feet, private beach, lemon squash drinks, island private tour, the amazing staff, and our romantic birthday dinner. Thank you to the incredible staff and manager! Hope to be back again and stay a little longer.

Staff was great and very accommodating but the property is very run down. The villa we were in had broken seals so the bugs were constantly in the room. The room was literally full of bugs. Also, transportation was not included in the price. For the price it’s at. Atleast shuffles should’ve been provided. & the restaurant didn’t really have any options.

Perfect Stay. Thank You Vellago Resort!
Excellent hotel. The staff was so friendly, kind and caring to my gf and I (now fiance) during our trip. True boutique with only a few rooms. All guests get 1 on 1 service. Great dinners on the beach and breakfast on our private deck. Owner is hands on as well and keeps a keen eye out for the guest's comfort and benefit. The views are breathtaking. The property has great ambiance and the plants and flowers are nicely trimmed and the whole environment gives a beautiful, lush tropical vibe.

We truly enjoyed our stay at Vellago, beautiful experience from initial pickup to the end. The beach in the front is one the best around Palawan, you can swim, snorkel etc. The rooms are also great, decorated & maintained nicely, lots of space, perfect patio with greatest views. Breakfast- you can chose from the menu & they are all tasty! As well as other food on the menu for lunch & dinner; we enjoyed them all, tasted great. Staff is really friendly & nice; they do their best to please guests. It is a unique and luxurious experience, definitely recommend for everyone!

Honeymoon
The staff were amazingly nice and always listen to our requests. Maybe it is us, but the food was not delicious as we ecpect it would be. The main thing that bother us is that tour A stops near the resort and one day was really crowded.

Great sunset views
The staff were very friendly and the views are amazing. Recommend having dinner on the beach, pretty spectacular. The hotel is isolated, which is great if you want a mini break. However, no power or wifi from 8am to 6pm. You can do island tours from the resort, but the prices seemed expensive given we stayed at another resort in El Nido where the tours were included in the price.

Simply Amazing Place
The place is simply amazing. The owners and staff are so nice and can't do enough for you. Highly recommend this place for people that want to get away from the crowds. Place is very private. Felt very safe because they have their own security on premises. Also make sure you do the tours they have available. They are so beautiful. I've traveled a lot and this place is my favorite. Worth every penny spent

The Perfect Honeymoon Spot - Private and Romantic
Our four nights honeymoon stay at Vellago was just perfect! Staff were very friendly and met all our needs and requests promptly. We chose the location because of its privacy and reviews online by other honeymooners, and we did see it was true! Food was delicious and our romantic dinner set up on the beach with lots of bamboo lights and candles was really beautiful. We spent our third day on a private boat tour organised by the resort and it was the highlight of our stay. The captain and crew were fantastic with knowledge of surrounding islands and beaches and they cooked this superb Filipino seafood & meat BBQ lunch with a charcoal fire on an isolated island just for the two of us! We felt we were having a royal honeymoon. We would have stayed longer if our budget allowed. Strongly recommended for honeymoon couples who want to be away from crowds and have a peaceful and private experience!

A haven of peace on a busy beach
This is a beautiful place to stay at one end of a lovely beach, with its own private waterfront and swimming area. The rooms are gorgeous, overlooking the sea with spacious balconies and plenty of thoughtful facilities.The main asset of the hotel is the staff - they are unfailingly helpful and went out of their way to make a special fuss of me on my birthday. My husband and I were treated like VIPs from start to finish. They dinners on the beach were wonderful and the food is reasonably priced and delicious. Sipping a cocktail at the beach bar while the sun went down was like being in heaven.

Luxury in the middle of nothing
No food path to El Nido! Need to go by boat (pay) and they tricycle for ten minutes Only houses for eight people but at least twenty employees Food was fine, rooms and view spectacular, not a great breakfast Expensive Felt a bit away from everything, can be both nice and annoying Best service!

Wonderful service and beautiful resort
This place is beautifully light at night. The entire staff is friendly and welcoming and available at any moment to help with whatever you need. There are massage therapists on site and Roy the host even went above and beyond to manage our pre booked island tour to request from them they pick us up directly from the resort instead of traveling 30+ minutes to the dock in town.

Excellent boutique hotel right on the beach!
Vellago was a wonderful place for our honeymoon. The location and ambiance was wonderfully beautiful. The staff was pleasant and responsive, helping us with whatever we needed. The food was excellent (special thanks to Chef Peter). Having breakfast in our patio overlooking the ocean made for wonderful mornings. And dinners on the beach were quite nice. The owners even helped us put together an epic day trip sea kayaking between remote islands. Would totally come back!

Amazing location and boutique size
The Vellago's location is unbelievably beautiful. A beautiful remote beach that is only accessible by boat - with a ridiculous view. We loved how all it was and how the staff would creatively make each guest's experience beautiful. It does have flaws - the shower didn't drain well, one of the girls behind the desk wasn't very competent, the food isn't amazing, and most disappointing was the dead branches on trees blocking the incredible view and sunset. BUT the manager, Gilbert went out of his way to take care of us, making special arrangements to bring us to the Matinluc Shrine area to kayak (which was the highlight of our trip). Most importantly, it's a small, eco friendly, romantic resort in paradise on one the most amazing location!

Из хорошего - месторасположение и дружелюбный персонал. Все впечатления об отеле испортил ресторан. Выбора вин НЕТ (5-тидолларовое чилийское по цене 40 баксов или Martini Asti (предагалось как шампанское) за 150 баксов). Кухня - отвратительная. При наличии свежей рыбы на острове, вам предложат мороженного лосося (!) и гамбургеры.

Ett fullständigt paradis. Knappt man vill berätta utan behålla själv. Super service och helt OK mat. Mycket vacker ö och öar runt om att besöka . Fyrtorn på toppen av ön där man erbjuds att tillbringa en natt och se solen gå upp. Inte högsta standard på rummen men helt ok. Enormt vänlig personal
