The place is clean and tidy. Very good location. My room got the best view of the sea. Staff are super nice and accommodating. Room rates are reasonable. Everything's just perfect for me. 

If i ever go back to el nido, i'll still choose this place.

Good job Rosanna's Pension

It was a great place to stay, it was a beachfront pension house, and we were able to enjoy the beautiful scenery in our place. I will surely book again next time I visit El Nido. They also offered Island tours when we were there and easily booked on the following day. We didn't have any problem as well leaving our luggage at their reception after we checked out at their place.

Amazing Beachfront Pension House

Not impressive from outside, but the inside is clean and well kept. The room we booked faced the ocean, and the view was beautiful, especially at sunset. Bed is clean and comfortable, and faces the beach, there is a private walk out balcony, with furniture, so we were able to relax and enjoy a drink there while watching the sun go down. Night life is a short walk from the hotel as are a wide variety of eateries. There is also a restaurant on the ground floor for breakfast and ground on site coffee. All in all worth the price.

Good location, good price 

Basic and simple accommodation with great location. Located in the El Nido Bay/town easy access to much of the restaurants, cafes and bars.  Most especially to the jump off point for island tour.  Amazing view from the balcony if you booked ocean view/front rooms.  Staff were very friendly and helpful. They serve simple breakfast selections of filipino & international options.  Nice breakfast area facing the beach.  Just to keep in mind this is a budget friendly accommodation and amenities are minimum.  However, you can just purchase from the convenient stores located nearby.

Affordable Stay

All the reviews I had read before booking here were true. This place is not a hotel. It’s a no frills-type of accommodation. But you get what you pay for, and we are truly satisfied : ) 

The hotel is centrally located in El Nido town and very convenient for going to restaurants, cafes, and shops. 

The building does not look great from outside but room was big enough for a family of four (two adults and two kids). Our room was on the third floor family room facing the ocean. It had one of the best views in El Nido town area for sure. I just wish there was no coconut tree blocking part of our view! As far as I understand, there are only two rooms on the third floor and higher the floor the better to see the color of the ocean. if you can book the room on the third floor, book the one left side facing the big mountain for even a better view. (without the coconut tree!). 

The another great thing about this place is the ocean access. This place has the best beach access in El Nido town area. The water is clean and definitely fine to swim in. 

Remember to bring own toiletries since you only get small soaps. No toothbrushes, not even shampoo is provided. 

Free water (hot or cold), ice tubes, and coffee were available. No fridge, no working tv (entire pension), and no elevator. Bring a bug spray if you are loved by mosquitoes. 
Wifi was spotty but worked most of the time. 

The pension staff are not overly friendly here but that was expected since this isn’t a hotel. They were all busy working and our room was cleaned well daily. 

There are a lot of ants here. We  have been living in the Philippines for four years and were not surprised. If you don’t like ants, do not eat anything in the room. If necessary, eat in the veranda and take the trash out immediately into the garbage bin outside/hallway. 

You rarely see anyone sitting behind the front desk. So, you really have to be independent or be relaxed when you need something. 

I appreciate all the previous reviewers. I got exactly what I expected and am very satisfied. Highly recommend to anyone who does not expect a hotel service but want to have an amazing view from your room for a very reasonable price.

Best View, Beach Access, Convenience, and Price in El Nido Town

Lived there on Palawan for 18 months 2014-15 and visited El Nido many times; always stayed at Rosanna's Pension House.  Friendly, clean and right on the beach...  Say Hi to Beth when you visit - she's the Best!

Our home away from home

We stayed for 5 nights at Rosanna's pension in the non-beach front rooms. One of the rooms was in the main building and the other at the building just across the road. The first room was a little bit small, but we had a nice terrace and hot water, working air conditioning and internet all the time. The second room was very spacious and pleasent. The hotel is located at the main street but a little far away from the bars and restaurants so it is away from the music and noise. The rooms may become a little noisy in the morning, because of the many tricycles. We checked the beachfront rooms which seemed quite big and with a really nice view. For breakfast there's a permanent menu with 3choises and another 2 options that are changed daily. You should order  the previous evening. You can have coffee, tea and juice in the dining room. You can also order the breakfast in your room.
The staff is pleasent and helpful.
We booked tour A, B, C with them.
The location of the hotel is just on the beach and very convenient for the tours. Tour C started in front of the hotel. The other two a little bit further within a walking distance.
It's not a luxury place, but a good and convenient one.

Good location

We loved this place because of its location and cheap price. It's not a 5 star resort but it was perfect for us. Right on the beach and shaded by palm trees. Within walking distance to everything and a great free breakfast in the cafe beside it.

Perfect for the price

Still the best place to stay when you are in El Nido. Enjoy the luxury of seeing Bacuit bay (beach front) from your window. Thus far, the nearest to the shoreline (1m). Got perfect view of the waters, limestones, and perfect place to walk by, either day or night. Enjoy the warmth and friendly gestures of the staff; breakfast especially the ‘pancake’ is also bestseller. Enjoy that peace and calmness any time of the day. But if you want to get a bit of the night scene, the pension is closeby the town centre, just a few metres walk. They also provide day tour services (Tour A, B, C). Still one of El Nido’s finest. 

Still the best 

Explore and travel el nido. Beautiful beaches hence mountains just out of reach. Exotic and superb experience you that you will carry the rest of your life. Come visit and be amaze by El Nido Palawan Philippines.
