This place was a tranquil paradise, the sunset views from the restaurant every evening were incredible. The staff were amazing, played cards and games with us most evenings until late (shout out to Richard (aka Handsome) and Ace - who really are the best thing about this hostel, completely made our stay (thank you guys). Co-working space was good for business calls, private room was massive for us. Shuttle service up and down the hill was great to access what you need, not too far from the town but it has everything you need locally if you don’t want to leave. Highly recommended for a more chilled stay!

Pool was still in renovation - so wasn’t open. Apparently the hostel was full in capacity but mostly it was just us and the staff in communal areas - so if a solo traveller not that social for meeting other travellers, though the staff will always be social with you.

I would highly recommend this guesthouse the people go out of their way to make you feel at home and they really do their best to cater to your every need. The view, the vibe , the staff in this place just makes your stay so pleasant and to be honest I did not want to leave. I met the nicest people and witnessed the most amazing sunsets and sunrise! All I can say is thank you Lexias Hostel for making my stay so enjoyable and I will definitely be back to see all of you guys!

There was nothing I didn’t like about the guesthouse to be honest with you. One of the best hostels I have stayed at in the Philippines.

the staff were amazing, so friendly and helpful, nothing was too much trouble! as the place is on top of a VERY steep hill, they offer pick up and drop off to/from McDonald’s, we went out one night and I whatsapped them to see if they could pick us up from mcd’s at 12:30am unsure if the driver was still around and that’s wasn’t a problem at all. the room had everything we needed and more, storage space, a table, great AIRCON, blankets and towels - aesthetic of the place as a whole was beautiful, amazing sunset - the restaurant area - designs on the walls and the plants, very good vibe! they also had a pool table which was great - cooking facilities! we made breakfast twice, you don’t get any place with cooking facilities in Asia so this was a big plus! they also have 3 dogs and 2 cats which was so lovely! nice to see they take them in and look after them with all the strays that are around. Lexi actually guided us to the beach one day and stayed with us for about 3hrs and walked back with us, our own 4 legged guide, she was great! the zip line is also bang next to the hostel which is also another great plus! the location was good, it was only a 10 minute drive to the town which was always 150 pesos preferred staying here than in the centre.

this was the most expensive place we stayed at during our travels and felt it could’ve been a bit cheaper. the pool was under construction when we arrived which we weren’t told about prior. the lamp in our room kept falling off - not really any hot water in the shower (not really a big deal in a hot country!) - good if they had more board games - the bathroom door slats were also falling off and there were some stains on the floor. for the price, you’d expect this to all be 100%

I loved staying at Lexias hostel. The staff is truly ely amazing. They’re super helpful, friendly and will always find creative ways to make your stay the most comfortable they can. No water? They’ll bring you a bucket shower. No power on the island? They’ll let you charge your devices at the front desk. No wifi? They’ll fix it as soon as they can or will help you look things up. The location is also perfect. The view is amazing. They serve very good food. The only thing i didn’t like is that the walls are paper thin. So unless you want to hear your neighbors conversations about the weather, bring earplugs. I should warn you that after a couple days at Lexias this place will feel like a home and the staff will feel like family so you might not want to leave.

muren zijn heel dun dus je kan je buren horen kuchen en praten

Firstly, the views from this hostel are absolutely second to none. The sunset is INSANE. We were absolutely in love from the afternoon we arrived! The food and drinks are great and reasonably priced. The staff were super attentive and helpful, Eileen was the sweetest lady we have ever met. The facilities were good and the beds were comfy especially for a hostel! The location is good, not very central but close to a couple of gorgeous beaches and a short tuk tuk ride away into town. Lexias is based on a very steep hill which takes around 5 minutes to walk up or down. I personally wouldn’t recommend getting a tuk tuk up the hill as it was pretty anxiety inducing but it’s fine if you really don’t want to walk. If you fancy some exercise just walk up or down! The zip line to the adjacent island is based right next to the hostel and is absolutely an amazing experience. Thank you so much Lexias for a fabulous stay!!

Good location, but you need to rent a ped to get up the hill! Very close to the beach and other areas. Staff were really helpful and all lovely. Has a small pool that over looks the beach and it's right next to the zipline.

Aircon in the dorms isn't great, but the villas are good. Had a few issues with the water and the communal showers aren't the best, but again the villas are good.

Fantastic hilltop view, cafe, pool, amazing staff that are genuinely happy to see you, cool room. They also provide free lifts to the hostel as it is atop a very steep hill.

Rooms and washrooms were very old and unappealing, in serious need of renovation and furnishings. Sinks barely worked and no soap provided. Room was inadequately lighted.

There is a bunch of pros with this property. I will try to list them in mixed order: the best sea view you could possibly get in El Nido, A/C in the rooms, spacious beds with privacy curtains, a co-working space with fast internet, swimming pool, billiard, hot water & electricity are stable throughout the day, laundry service. And, last but not least, a fantastic receptionist, always attentive to the guests' needs (she even offered to medicate my wound wow), and the cafe/restaurant where I spent endless time chilling out and tasting various delicacies (please try the chicken curry, best I tried in my life!). I really can't wait to return!

The property is very uphill as everyone else mentioned. But this is about the only cons I can think of. On the top they offer a free shuttle service until midnight even though I personally did the route by walk on several occasions and found it rather easy peasy despite it looks insanely steep.

This hostel really hits the heights of extraordinary! Room was clean and comfortable. Staff are so friendly and welcoming, they will look after you and make sure you are having a fantastic time. The roof top bar/restaurant is an unforgettable experience! Very possibly the greatest view on earth which is accompanied by a relaxed atmosphere, ‘high dining’ level of food and drink (incomparable vegetarian options). If you are lucky enough to get a room you should jump at the opportunity and if not you need to at least visit the bar and take in the view and enjoy the chilled vibes. the real kicker is it’s affordability! For what you get it’s unbeatable.

it was a very a nice hostel and the bar had the best view. the room was very spacious and comfortable. the staff were super friendly and the food was delicious!

the food and drinks were a bit expensive and other things like laundry and scooter hire too. the hill is no joke, be prepared for that. they do offer free tranfers from the bottom. l
