Happy Monkey Hostel features an outdoor swimming pool, garden, a shared lounge and bar in El Nido. There is a sun terrace and guests can make use of free WiFi and free private parking.

You can play table tennis at the hostel, and bike hire and car hire are available. It was such a wonderful place where a lot of care has been given to the design and the facilities. The staff is extremely friendly, made us feel at home and really took care of us. We chose this place because it was close to the airport but we wished that we had booked more nights there! We had such a relaxing time at the pool and the hostel is close to Lio beach and about 10 min away from the center. We would love to come again one day.

Situated within 4.3 km of Maquinit Hot Spring and less than 1 km of Coron Public Market, Kaiz Hostel features rooms with air conditioning and a shared bathroom in Coron. Attractively situated in the Coron Town Proper district, this hostel is located 1.7 km from Mount Tapyas. The property is 400 metres from the city centre and 2.6 km from Dicanituan Beach. Everything was great. Despite being 12 people in the room, it was very quiet and we had enough space for everything. There are big lockers under the bed, free coffee and water, 2 showers+2 toilets which was enough. The family was very helpful, friendly and empathetic. They kept my bag in their house for the whole day while I was gone for a day trip, and helped with booking the tour. I'd highly recommend if you want to sleep during the night.
