Great stay. Unfortunately the pool and bar were closed due to maintenance but this did not affect our stay at all. Jude our butler was amazing and the breakfast to our room was out of this world. Bottle of wine and an anniversary cake for my husband and I. They did not leave out the kids, they made sure they had sweet little treats too. Definitely recommend this hotel.

Loved LIHIM. We were greeted with a warm welcome with cold towels and a delicious drink. The service is impeccable. The staff and personal butlers are very attentive. Loved that you could be chatting with them throughout the day about all your needs. The room was very spacious and the bathroom was huge. Will definitely return and highly recommend.

We had an amazing experience at Henri’s. Oliver looked after us and even took photos of us in the sunset. Would definitely recommend this spot for a sunset drink and dinner. The Tataki was the best I’ve ever had and the cocktails were all amazing. The service was great and the views 10/10.

Our family had a relaxing and memorable stay at Lihim Resorts. What stood out most about the resort was the epic sunset seen from Henri's Restaurant, and the private Hayag beach resort - but many things stood out during our stay. From our group which included seniors and kids, everyone had a relaxing experience. The staff were super friendly every step of the way, and at every touch point (airport, welcome entrance, dining, bar, pool), and available any time you need them. What really stood out were our private butlers, Ken and Vic, who ensure each day had a great itinerary and a seamless experience. They were super responsive to any family member's needs and really helped make our stay comfortable. We stayed in the Bucana Rooms, which were exceptional. The views were amazing and the entire terrace with the rooms felt quite secluded. Bonus that there was a mini pool for the kids to keep cool. The bathrooms were as advertised in the pictures and one of the best parts of the room. The air-conditioner was cool as can be which was a bonus for us. Car service to move around the property (and into town) was always readily available with a quick text to the butlers. Our rate included the breakfast buffet which was our favorite thing to wake up to each day. The menu included rice, delicious local meat dishes and fresh fruit, and each morning the menu changed which our group pleasantly welcomed. As I mentioned the Hayag Beach, while you do need to take a quick boat ride there is well worth it. Our family had the entire beach nearly to ourselves for a good two hours. This is as quiet as a beach gets here in El Nido as we found the beaches with the tours to be quite busy. So highly recommend visiting Hayag at least a couple times if you can if you're seeking relaxation. From the amazing sunset, to the chill and quiet pool, and incredible service - Lihim Resorts helped make our stay in El Nido a trip to remember!

Visited Lihim in Dec 2024 with my partner. We stayed in one of the premium villas towards the top of the resort The good: Incredible views across the bay and over into El Nido Huge room, very comfortable bed, interior cleaned to a high standard Lovely spa treatments Staff were pleasant & friendly The not so good: Location - While the views are good, the location to get anywhere else outside of the hotel is poor. The boat only operates during daylight hours and outside of this it is a minimum 15 minute car ride to get anywhere else mostly due to the long, steep, potholed driveway which was not a luxury experience. Upkeep of exterior & grounds - While our room's interior was nice, the outdoor bathroom was tired, tatty and looked in need of some TLC with broken bamboo and exposed wiring . Our pool area had broken timbers and exposed nails and the pool glass was grubby (see pictures) In the grounds, the vegetation was overgrown and overhanging with lots of debris on the floors and broken railings. Whilst I appreciate it is a tropical forest environment we saw much better examples on our trip that managed to maintain the environment in a sympathetic way and look much less unkempt. There were also random apparatus discarded around the grounds, for example gardening tools along the pathways and an abandoned SUV up on blocks just outside the steps to Henris... The funiculaire was not operational and seems to have been broken for a long time judging by other reviews. In a resort of this calibre things like this should be fixed quickly. Tours- The team really push the tours, and the concept of the Lihim 'journey', which is a future vision where guests visit different sites over the course of their stay. This is undoubtedly a cool idea. However when we went on one of the tours we were really disappointed. Hyag 'Beach Club' is not a beach club, it is a building site. We were dropped by boat at a dirty beach for 3 hours with a cool box containing 1 bottle of water each. We were offered none of the promised equipment, snorkels, kayaks etc - there was just one broken paddle board and a constant sound of construction machinery and workers shouting at each other. There was no shower and the toilet had no running water or soap in the sink, and no light so you could not shut the door. We went to the bay with the other beach lounge on a subsequent tour through our next hotel and again it was a building site. The photos we were shown before attending were in no way accurate of either Beach excursion. It feels like Lihim is getting way ahead of itself and should focus on its core offering before branching out, and tours should certainly not be taking place to areas of construction. We did complain about this at the time and were credited a round of drinks. Service - While the staff were numerous and all friendly, it felt like additional training would be of benefit for a luxury resort. For example the staff at Henri's were constantly messing around behind t

We went to their restaurant, Gana, as well as their rooftop bar, Henris, for a birthday celebration. Everything was seamless — from online reservations to our dinner. Food great, but the customer service was the best part! Kudos to our server Sam, the bartender Richard, their manager Ronald, and the boat men who handled our transfer :) Will definitely come back to check in for a few days!
