Das OIA Hostel war meine erste Unterkunft in den Phillipinen und vom ersten Moment an magisch! Von der Chill Area kann man manchmal Schildkröten im Wasser direkt vor dem Hostel beobachten und der Sonnenuntergang ist absolut einmalig. Dieser Ort hat so viele wunderschöne kreative Details und man findet alles was man braucht! Mein absolutes Highlight waren die Mitarbeiter, sie haben meinen Aufenthalt so besonders gemacht und ich habe mich stets sehr willkommen gefühlt! Danke :) Ich komme wiede...

We really enjoyed our stay at the hostel. The whole crew was so helpful and kind. The overall atmosphere in the hostel was outstanding. It’s not located in the main area of El Nido but this is not an issue. You can reach it in 10 minutes by foot. It is also a scenic walk. Thats a tiny price to pay to be right at the beach front.

In overall it is a great Hostel with a nice view! Mattresses aren’t comfortable since they’re really thin The common area is big and offers a lot of socialising activities like cards, games or 8-pool

I loved this place! I was only there for a night but would have loved to stay longer. Super chill vibe. Outdoor bathrooms/showers but worked great! Dorms can be a bit small but never felt too hot or anything. A lot of the staff are volunteers and we’re so lovely! Right on the beach which was so cute and the nets/hammocks everywhere were such a vibe. A little out of the main town but not too far. And the surrounding neighbourhoods was a lot more laid back than in town. Definitely would book aga...

A great place to stay. The Irish leprechaun Fin at reception went above and beyond to accommodate his customers.

I had such a great stay at OIA Beach Hostel! The people there are incredibly friendly and open.They really make the place feel welcoming and relaxed. The common area is honestly the best part. It’s right by the beach with the most beautiful view. Watching the sunsets from there is just perfect and something I’ll definitely remember. Overall it’s just a really special place with a great vibe. I had an amazing time and would definitely recommend staying here!

This hostel has a unreal vibe and view of the bay of El Nido. You will keep wanting to extend your stay here. Great hang out area and always something to do. Shout out Finn, Angel, Milly, Stanley, Noi, and all everyone else for making my here incredible!

Booked 4 nights there. Actually I made some other friends so didn’t really live the hostel. Although there was a WhatsApp group, I didn’t get answers when asking about boat tour. I thought I could manage room without fan but actually I couldn’t. In general it looked a bit roosty and slightly outside from the center so I decided to leave after 2 nights and booking somewhere else last minute. Not sure about social life there as I was never around. Toilette and showers were ok

Not social at all. The showers were bad, you couldn’t adjust the temperature. You could not lock the doors, you didn’t get a key so anyone could walk in. The ac never worked properly, it was so hot in the rooms. We could never turn the lights off so it would always be on until so late, some days 2 in the morning. They say they have a no sex policy and you get fined, but apparently that does not apply for the staff, they woke me up every night I stayed there and cats that ran into the rooms.

Buen alojamiento! Las zonas comunas estan super bien. El personal es super amable y el ambiente es muy bueno :)) Buena ubicacion, a 10min andando del centro y enfrente de la playa. Tiene muy buenas vistas. Me ha encantado :)) Como contra, las habitaciones son pequeñas y no hay mucho espacio. La cama no es la más comoda.

The best part of the hostel was the atmosphere created by the great staff, Millie, Stanley, Finn, Angel and Jenny have great energy and are super helpful and friendly all the time. They are really looking out for the guests and were very welcoming. The social area invites to soziales with other people, you can have a beer, play ping pong, pool or just hang out in the hammocks. All in all, amazing place to stay at !! ❤️
