SAFE SPACE! My partner and I stayed at this cozy hotel for a weekend and we were much satisfied with everything -- the room, service, the company, and the ease of access around El Nido town. We stayed at the Diamond room and were blown away by the curated pieces around the room. One of the unique things we noticed was the locking mechanism of the door that relied on levers and manual padlocks instead of the usual automatic locks you'd find in commercial hotels. It added more character to the already unique room design. The staff, Kyle and Ran were very accommodating as well. They were easy to approach and would also chat with us to make us feel comfortable. The owner, Dran was also one of the best hosts. We had breakfast with him and had great conversations. He even let us try this delicious almond cake from Sweden. Overall, our stay at Rockinnest was one of a kind and I highly recommend it for couples. PLUS, did I mention that the hotel is run by an LGBT couple and have a diverse set of staff. As a lesbian couple we felt safe and free to be ourselves (v. important).

My review is a few months delayed, but the Rockinnest was amazing. The rooms are gorgeous and so creative. The staff went above and beyond. I would like to give a special shout out to Ran, who made our stay extra special. We love sharing our wedding anniversary with your birthday!

We spent 6 nights at this hotel right in the heart of El Nido. We were only a couple minute walk from shops, places to eat and most importantly, the beach. From the time we arrived, the staff was very friendly and helpful. We were able to check in a little early, which was great! We also got to meet the owner and his very friendly dog, which was cool. The room was spacious and had A/C which was a plus. The only reason we didn't give the room a 5 star is because the bedding was a little short and became untucked often, but they had multiple options for bedding if you got cold. We would definitely stay here again on our next trip to El Nido and would highly recommend anyone to do the same! Thank you staff of Rockinnest Hotel - you helped make our El Nido experience fantastic.

Rockinnest Hotel is a charming destination nestled in the heart of El Nido. Despite the ongoing water drought in the area, the hotel staff goes above and beyond to ensure a pleasant stay for every guest. Their friendly and accommodating nature truly adds to the overall experience. While it's important to note that the hotel is located in the town center, it's worth mentioning that being in such a central location comes with a few expected street noises. However, the hotel staff is committed to making your stay as comfortable as possible, providing earplugs and other amenities to mitigate any inconvenience. Additionally, there is a construction site nearby, but the hotel takes measures to minimize disturbance and maintain a peaceful ambiance. The hotel's prime location allows easy access to the vibrant atmosphere and attractions of El Nido. Overall, Rockinnest Hotel offers a beautiful and convenient stay, and the staff's warm hospitality shines through any challenges presented by the water drought or nearby construction.

Beautifully designed boutique hotel in the heart of El Nido town. Conveniently located to restaurants, shops, and the boats for island hopping tours. The room itself is so comfortable and creative. And the bed is probably one of the best mattresses in Palawan for a great night's sleep. Worth it to spend your holiday here to get amazing rest between exploring all El Nido has to offer!
