Aspectos negativos: Limpieza, servicios y instalaciones y estado del alojamiento
Starting with the positives. This accomodation likely has one of the best views in El Nido. Each room has a great view of the islands and overlooks vanilla beach. It’s a stunning place to wake up to. It also looks out to the zip line.
Starting with access to the properties, the villas are located on a mountain which most local transportation are unable to drive up. The accomodation provides a pick up and drop off service through WhatsApp. We found this to be ok but often took a long time for the driver to show up. The alternative to this is walking up a steep hill but we wouldn’t recommend.
As for the accomodation itself, this did not live up to expectations. 89 villas describes themselves as a “resort” providing house keeping service and amenities you would expect at a resort level price point. The rooms themselves felt dirty. No house keeping service was provided despite staying for 5 nights. No kettle/ bathroom supplies such as toilet paper or hand soap were provided. Also no laundry service.
While the resort had a pool, it was not clean / safe to swim in.
Complementary breakfast and coffee was provided however no drinking water was provided after the first day and costs 100 pesos for a tiny bottle of water.
The staff are friendly however it felt most of our requests eg transport were difficult to arrange.
The standards set by 89 villas were closer to that of a hostel and given the price point this feels unacceptable.
Also… there is no winery.
