Wunderschöne Lage mit einem tollen Strand. Der Service war super und das Personal immer sehr hilfsbereit.

Transfer zur Insel im Verhältnis relativ teuer.

Super Lage an einem einsamen Strand. Lediglich kommen ein paar Schiffe vorbei um das Schiffs-Frack zu beschnorcheln.

Leider wurden die Ruhezeiten nicht eingehalten. Einmal sehr lange laute Musik und an einem anderen Tag wurde in den Morgenstunden ein Schwein geschlachtet. Also es war leider sehr laut.

Mega Lage direkt am Strand.

Der Strand ist superschön. Es ist ein ruhiger Ort und nicht überfüllt. Andy, der Herr an der Rezeption war sehr nett, auch unser Fahrer Will, der uns zum Camp brachte. Das Essen war sehr gut, wenn auch nicht günstig, es ist ja schließlich eine kleine Insel und alle Lebensmittel müssen dorthin transportiert werden. Wasser und Kaffee gab es for free!

Das Beach House, in dem wir als Famile wohnten, war zwar geräumig (2 Etagen) und wir hatten ein eigenes Bad, aber es hatte wenig Komfortausstattung. Es gab nur einen Ventilator, der nur funktionierte, wenn der Strom an war (6pm-10am). Hätten gern auf beiden Etagen einen Ventilator gehabt. Die Moskitonetze der Betten hatten Löcher und die Hütte war voll (!!!) Von Ameisen. Es gibt viele Sand Flys, also stattet euch mit Insektenspray aus. In einigen anderen Unterkünften gibt es das for free, jedoch nicht im Bice Camp. Ein sehr wichtiger Punkt: man kann zwar mit Karte zahlen, was sehr komfortabel ist, jedoch hätte man uns vorher sagen können, dass Gebühren dafür anfallen (60 Peso pro 1000Peso der Endrechnung. Das summiert sich am Ende und wir hätten es gern einfach vorher gewusst!) Die Schnorchelausrüstung kann ausgeliehen werden, ist aber sehr abgenutzt, also lieber eigene Ausrüstung mitnehmen! Für Kinder gab es leider keine passenden Masken. Und einfach insgesamt zu wenig Ausrüstung für die Gäste, sodass man durchaus nichts mehr abbekommt. Es gibt wenig Liege/Sitzmöglichkeiten am Strand.

Beautiful beach with good snorkelling at the ship wreck on your doorstep. Good value for money on a small island.

Would be good if there was more shade available during the heat of the day (whenever the sun is up!) as it can be quite a busy place with day tours and visitors.

We had a fantastic experience at this accommodation on a small tropical island, providing nomadic conditions that allowed us to experience what it's like to be shipwrecked. The staff is extremely friendly, the food is superb, and one truly feels like they're in paradise. However, it's not suitable for those seeking comfort and who are afraid of animals, as in this place, we are the guests, and the animals are at home.

Das Camp war sehr sauber und gut organisiert. Der Strand, ein Traum 🏖️

Das Essen war zum Teil sehr fettig und nicht für Veganer oder Vegetarier geeignet. Das ist aber meine eigene Meinung, da hat ja jeder auch einen andererseits Geschmack.

O sítio era super sossegado.

Nada a descrever

Ubytování poskytuje nejnutnější minimum, ale to, co člověka ohromí je místo samotné. 1 noc pro zážitek stačí a nudit se nebudete. V blízkosti ostrova se nachází potopený vrak lodi, ke kterému lze bez problémů doplavat. Vrak je porostlý korály a místo se hemží rybkami. I přesto, že místo sdílíte s několika dalšími lidmi z vašeho a vedlejšího kempu, připadáte si, jakoby byl ostrov jenom váš. Procházky po pustoprázdné pláži, absolutní klid a do toho šumění průzračného moře je něco nepopsatelného. Doprava na ostrov je trochu složitější a nelze se na ni časově spolehnout. Důležité je zachovat klid a nikam nechvátat. I s velkou časovou rezervou jsme nakonec čekali do odpoledních hodin, než nás vyzvedne loď a odveze nás na ostrov. To samé i s odjezdem z ostrova. 1 hodina zpoždění nikoho netrápila. Chatky jsou opravdu hodně prosté, nečekejte žádné velké pohodlí, ani soukromí. Přístřešek využijete pouze na přespání. Kemp má striktně nastavený režim. Výdej jídel je možný jen v určitých časech, omezená dodávka elektřiny, od 22:00 je večerka a noční klid. Nabídka jídel je omezenější, ale chuť i velikost porcí nás uspokojily.

Chatky nejsou úplně v dobrém stavu. Vrátka nedoléhala, z podlahy trčel hřebík a celkově bylo vše dost opotřebované a jednoduše řešené. Malý větráček nad postelí posloužil jen krátce, neboť během noci nefungoval elektrický proud. Bez ventilátoru jsme se bohužel moc dobře nevyspali, protože i v noci byly vysoké teploty. Moskytiéra byla absolutní nezbytnost (je součástí chatky), protože na ostrově je velké množství hmyzu. Mravenci v posteli a v zavazadlech asi nikoho nepřekvapí a musí se s tím počítat. Společné toalety a sprchy nejsou nic pro slabší povahy, ale i tak bylo vidět, že základní údržba probíhala. Cena ubytování rozhodně neodpovídá kvalitě bydlení, ale je to daň za jedinečné místo, které stojí za to vidět - zažít.

Un posto incredibile! Lo staff è super amichevole e pronto ad accontentare qualsiasi tua esigenza.

beautiful place, great beach or coral reef. great service, the owner of the resort, Tom, is a very helpful person

The food cooked by the chef was delicious. We especially loved the lumpia, chop suey, and veggie noodles. The island of Darcotan was extremely beautiful and the staff were very kind as well as helpful.

There were not any other establishments on the island other than Backpackers so be prepared for that. There was no electricity on the island until 6 pm and no wifi.

Really wonderful place, great value, great snorkelling

Wonderful island and I loved the beach hut. Andy the receptionist was outstanding and always available to assist. It back to nature kinda thing, the bed has a mosquito net, so it kept all bugs away. Not sure why people complaining about the ants etc. it’s not a hotel room it’s a beach hut.

There was a staff party (manager partying, and walking around visibly intoxicated) with loud Filipino music and laughs behind the curtain at the reception area. Guests come to this place to relax and listen to nature. I’m sure Tom, the owner will address this matter. Also workers would start sweeping leaves around the hut as early as 5:50 am. This was way too early, maybe 7am or after would be more appropriate when more or less everyone would start waking up. It wasn’t a big deal but I thought I would mention it.

This place was absolutely amazing. You are literally on a tropical paradise island with the most spectacular snorkeling seconds from your hut. The facilities are basic, but that adds to its charm and the feeling of being out in nature, in my view anyway.

1. There is a minimum set of products - chips and beer. You can also order a few dishes, such as fried fish. 2. Sea stars lie in the sea literally 20 meters away. 3. Transfer to El Nido is well organized.

1. The hotel area is very small and all the buildings are practically right next to each other. 2. Very noisy neighbors and roosters that scream all night long. 3. Many stray dogs around the area. 4. Coconuts are not cleaned up from the palm trees, and hammocks are tied to them, so people constantly walk around them - it is very irresponsible not to remove them. 5. There are no mirrors anywhere - it's impossible to get ready without one. 6. Often there was no water in the shower after 6 pm. 7. There is no privacy in the toilet, everyone who approaches the door can see you through a 3 cm gap in the center of the toilet bowl! 8. The toilet seats are not covered, so it is assumed that you will sit bare-bottomed on a wet and cold toilet seat. 9. Electricity is only available from 6 pm to 2 am. 10. There is no WiFi, and mobile phone signal reception is very poor. 11. There are no fans in the rooms, so it's very stuffy to sleep at night. 12. Rooms for two people are quite cramped. 13. There is no hot water. 14. Water pressure is very weak, and to wash off the sand, especially from your head, you have to take a very long shower. 15. You have to change the water to flush your feet by yourself. 16. Sand is everywhere on the hotel grounds and constantly gets into the rooms. 17. Ants are everywhere - underfoot in the sand and in the rooms. 18. There is no hand soap. 19. Food prices are quite high, averaging 2000-3000 pesos per day for two persons. 20. Payment for the bar is due upon checkout, with possible errors and no possibility to pay by card. 21. There are no rain covers, so the table is always wet and dirty. 22. There are no beach loungers or beach towels on the beach. 23. Karaoke with sad songs from the staff is a strange decision to entertain guests. 24. The huts do not close and there is not even a door - only a curtain. 25. It's good that there is a transfer, but if you are coming from Puerto Princesa, it is almost impossible to make it by 12:30.

This place is all about its location. It is a paradise island with very basic but clean facilities. They help organise transport to and from the property and the staff on the whole are very nice people. the cost of the transport from El Nido in a shared car was 500 pp. we didn’t need to pay extra for the boat but saw people coming and going at other times. the Island itself has an incredible beach with crystal clear water. You stay in one of 8-9 beach huts which are on the beach. the huts are tiny but have a bed net so didn’t get bitten too much. there is amazing snorkelling off the beach. would recommend seeing the shipwreck straight ahead but also the corals on the left corner of the beach. they provide some snorkelling equipment. Food and drink is provided on the island at a cost and is decent. would recommend telling them to use less oil from the start. the food is costly but the low cost of the accommodation makes up for this easily.

cats and dogs near the property. dogs sometimes sit by you whilst you eat in the evenings which I don’t like personally. one night a cat snuck into our hut and was right next to the bed!

I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Backpackers Island Beach Camp and I must say, it was an excellent surprise. The fact that I had a room right on the beach of an almost deserted island was exactly what I needed for a peaceful holiday. The hotel staff were amazing and made my stay even more memorable. They were friendly, welcoming, and always went the extra mile to make sure that I was comfortable. I would like to give special thanks to Andy and Noel who were truly exceptional. Their tireless efforts and dedication to their work really made my stay fantastic. The accommodation was simple but comfortable, and the location was absolutely stunning. Waking up to the sound of the waves and the ocean breeze was just what I needed to recharge my batteries. The hotel also offers a variety of activities, including island hopping, snorkeling, and kayaking, which made my stay even more enjoyable. I highly recommend the Backpackers Island Beach Camp for anyone who wants a peaceful and tranquil holiday in a beautiful setting. The staff and location are unbeatable and I can't wait to return. Thank you to everyone at the hotel for making my stay so wonderful.

wonderful island with great beach and snorkeling right outside. the water was probably some of the clearest I’ve seen

the food was quite bad, the only thing that was good was the fish. there are two roosters only a few meters from where the bungalows are which start making noice at 3-4 am. and even if there is quiet time at 10pm the staff are up talking loud and laughing until after midnight two out of three nights. also very noisy at the place, super loud and bad music playing so you can’t read a book or relax during the day, and often staff playing loud video games or watching TikTok when we were waiting for our food or eating.

Everything was amazing, what a beautiful beach just next to our room. Incredible experience

Beautiful location, right on the beach with a shipwreck to snorkel out too. The meals are tasty and substantial.

The snorkels at the hostel are a little used, I’d recommend taking your own. Getting to the island will cost you around 1000-1500php (understandable given the location). It can be a bit noisy.

Wow, what an amazing experience! I was a bit worried about bugs and not getting sleep during the stay but neither were an issue. Excellent experience for a night or two!

Very nice place to snorkel

Be ready to pay for a ocean view hut and have a last row hut. Management of the hotel is just silent and can’t do nothing about it. when we stayed there, it was a big group of people, so can’t sleep at night and by the morning 5am they woke up everybody as they were veeeery loud.

lovely location I liked that they had a basin to wash your feet before entering your room

no pressure on the shower the staff wasn’t the friendliest a bit expensive for what it is

It's in a paradise island!. In front of an amazing beach. So the place!

It's maybe too basic. A bit of more shadow zones could be also nice.

I had a one day at paradise. everything was perfect

nothing

Everything. Perfect stay

no

Nice environment and location

Very noisy

All personnel kind ad helpful, especially Dom and Andy, working so hard to make our stay awesome. Paradise like location that you have dreamed but didn't know it existed. Beautiful and comfortable huts. Bathrooms and showers very clean and practical. Small size of the structure makes the experience very nice, quiet with stilll some very good time with the other clients. Snorkeling absolutely fantastic with a shipwreck on the beach. Don't hesitate to go Snorkeling also from the beach in front of the village, there are huge colorful corals and multicolored fish. We could swim with a giant turtle 🐢 met when kayaking in the next bay after the village. Food is very well prepared and good. Some complain that they had to wait... sorry for them, most likely they had an urgent appointment 😅 . Snorkeling equipment provided, kayak for rent much cheaper than in other structures around. The 2 only others "hôtels" are accessible for a drink, lunch or dinner... this allows for variety... Transfer by boat is free of charge if you do during check in/out time. Tom is very reactive with messages to give you all information you need. For us one of the best travelling experience ever!

We hate... that we had booked only 3 nights!

Wonderful place, helprull staff, tasty food at very good price. Crystal clear water - very good for tke snorkeling. The only camp on the island where you have an internet access if you have local sim card. Spent there 3 nights.

Everything was just perfect. Definitely come back when back in Philippines.
