"Pros: 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!! Cons: Only complaint would be the noise of the air con" ~Kiri-may

"Pros: Spending time on the catamaran was a wonderful experience. The captain/host was very friendly and accommodating. The facilities were very clean. The views were magnificent. Jumping from the deck into the ocean and then showering on the deck gives you a level of freedom that is hard to come by. Its a boat, not a hotel or restaurant, so the rooms are naturally small but adequate. If you want to eat and drink on the boat, you need to bring the groceries with. We were given a little boat with paddles so that we could get onshore anytime we wanted. Its all part of the experience and we loved it! Cons: We loved everything - but this is not an experience for whimps or those that expect a hotel/restaurant experience." ~Gregory
