Gorgeous island and a 5 star property. The advantage of this side of El Nido (Taytay) is that there are no other resorts in the area. You are always alone on trips to small islands or diving. Water activities are easy, such as snorkelling, diving, kayaking, paddleboarding. There are also many on land activities, such as hiking, rock climbing. We stayed in the loft unit area. It was a nice run in the morning along the shoreline and into the west beach. The beach is deserted, just you and the nature.

船の揺れが酷かった。

カスタマーセンターの対応が最低です。何度メールにて連絡するも返答はありません。 ホテルから来たメールに返信したメールの返信がなかったのです。 ホテルズドットコムにその旨を伝えた後にようやくメールがありました。 ホテルは、1月2月は風が強い時期みたいで行きのボートが凄く揺れ、ボート内もガソリン臭く生まれて初めて酔いました。 アクティビティも強風でクローズも多いです。 料理は朝昼晩ビュッフェでした。飽きます。 海は凄く綺麗でハウスリーフでも海亀も見れサンゴも綺麗でした。 ダイビングでは沈没船なども見れ、ダイビングスポットも周囲に色々とあるようでした。 サービスは人により差があります。 一流とは言い難いサービスではあります。 エルニドは今回で2回目ですので、少し遠いアプリットにしましたが、 今後はエルニドに近い1島リゾートホテルを選択します。 ホテルに行く時間がかかりすぎますし、行く過程のワクワクや楽しみはゼロです。 そしてカスタマーセンターの対応を考えると、エルニドリゾートのホテルは選択するとことはないでしょう。

The resort is beautiful. It is very quiet so it is perfect for some R and R. It also offers a variety of activities so your days can also be quite full if you choose. Everything is perfect in Apulit. If there is anything, the food needs to be improved. The quality is there, it is the cooking talent that needs to be worked on. The transfer the island is long and the waters can be choppy. Potential guests should know this

Apulit was beautiful! The staff were so friendly and very helpful. My husband had an ear infection while there and the Resort doctor, Dr Ina was so helpful with his ear issue. We enjoyed Chef James choice of food. The food was amazing and since I’m a vegetarian, there were so many choices for me. Jeff and the staff during our dining were so nice and helpful. We didn’t have any issues at all with the dining experience. I had never paddle boarded before and Raul was so helpful in getting me started with the activity. Overall, it was a great experience! We hope to go back soon!

Loft water cottage גישה ישירה למים

זוג בירח דבש. המלון נמצא על אי בודד, השהות כוללת 3 ארוחות ביום במסעדת המלון. פחות התחברנו לאוכל הפיליפיני והשף קלט את זה ופשוט דאג לנו תמיד שיהיה לנו מה לאכול- אם זה להכין לנו דגים בנייר כסף או להכין פסטה במיוחד בשבילנו. המלון יפהפה. כל החדרים נמצאים על המים אך רק הלופטים בעלי 2 הקומות הם אלה עם הגישה הישירה למים. יש המון אטרקציות שהמלון מציע בחינם וגם בתשלום. הצוות כל כך אדיב ונחמד. רוצים לציין במיוחד את מיגל וראול מהצוות- זכרו אותנו לאורך כל השהות והתעניינו, דיברו, עזרו והמליצו בנוגע לאיים הבאים שנגיע אליהם בטיול. Miguel & Raul you are the best!!!!!!! We appreciate everything ❤️

舒服放鬆的世外桃源

環境很不錯，不過因為在熱帶地區的小島上，所以會有蚊蟲，建議要帶防蚊噴霧，沒帶的話島上也有販賣。這幾天覺得最舒服的是resort的服務人員都非常友善，每個人看起來都很開心的樣子，也都很開心的跟遊客打招呼。 水源的部分由於好像是使用海水淡化系統，若腸胃較弱的人記得要買礦泉水(島上有賣)以及盡量不吃生冷的食物，提供參考。

Enttäuschung

Wir haben uns auf ein Luxusresort gefreut, aber Apulit Island Resort war eine ziemliche Enttäuschung, die wir bestenfalls als Mittelklasse bewerten - und das rechtfertigt den hohen Preis keinesfalls. Die Zimmereinrichtung war einfach, die Betten steinhart ohne Lattenrost. Die Dusche hatte nur für eine Minute warmes Wasser, das Waschbecken einen dicken, schwarzen Schimmelrand. Für die Strandliegen gab es keine Auflagen, und nach zumindest Handtüchern musste man selbst auf die Suche gehen. Als Draufgabe ist der Strand bei Ebbe für mehrere Stunden nur eine graue Steinwüste. Das Buffet war reichhaltig, aber vornehmlich für Fleischesser ausgerichtet, es gab kaum Fisch. Insgesamt scheint die Anlage ihre goldenen Zeiten hinter sich gelassen zu haben.

・エルニドの空港到着時に迎えに来てもらう手配をしていたが、迎えを忘れていたようで空港の従業員が連絡を取ってくれた。結局30分ほど空調のない空港の到着口で待たされたが謝罪なし。 ・アクティビティでビーチに忘れ物をしたので翌日そこに行ったら持ってくるよう2回お願いしたが何の連絡もなし。こちらから確認したたらなかったという明らかな嘘をつかれた。 ・当初従業員から聞かされいたチェックアウトの時間と朝手紙が置かれていてそこに記載されたチェックアウトの時間が異なっていた。手紙記載されていた時間では明らかに昼食がとれない時間であり、こちらから早めにチェックアウトを申し出ることに。 ・総じて従業員の愛想はよく親切ですが、表面上に過ぎないと思いますので気をつけて下さい。 ・ホテルの雰囲気やアクティビティで行くシュノーケリングスポットは素晴らしいですが、経験上間違いなくストレスを感じることになるのでリピートするかと言われたらしないでしょう。
