A perfect place full of imperfections. This place needs a major renovation! Isolated which is perfect if you want to get away .. but limited options available there.. ! I love the people and staff .. but would I stay there again? Not likely!

I give this resort an overall rating of excellent because the staff and the views compensated for the negatives of which there were a few. Bottom line is it’s no 5 star, probably more like a 3 but the views were stunning and well worth it.

Overall, a pretty sweet location, beautiful salt-water pool infinity pool, absolutely loved that it was filled with sea-water and also resort had beautiful beach access.

The only advantage this place has is location. I say this because there is a beautiful view and beach water front. The cabanas are old and need refurbishing. The bathroom tiles are broken and the water pressure is poor. They are dark, dirty, and uninviting. The pool area is almost unusable. The furniture has no cushions and looks old and weather beaten. The pool water is straight out of the sea and is so cloudy I question the bacterial health of the water. Although the staff is friendly we never really knew who to ask for what. Always trying to find someone to answer our questions. Food service is disorganized. Simple thing like water, salt/pepper, hot water, napkins have to be sought after. The only way to get off property is a rocky road by golf cart (10 min) or 20 minute walk down the beach to the vanilla beach area. Neither of these are a good idea after dark, so you are pretty much stuck here for dinners. For the price I think there is better value elsewhere.

Love love love this resort! The stay and hospitality was more personalized! The staff were all accommodating and friendly and easy to deal with! We had the romantic dinner at the dock with a beautiful setup. This place is very underrated out of all the resorts in El Nido seems like. Nothing can beat the calmness and relaxing environment after going around town. Our vacation felt really slow and breathable in this place which was all we could ever ask for. Thank you Dolarog! We are definitely coming back!

My wife and I spent our honeymoon there. We had a wonderful time it was exactly what we had hoped it would be and then some. The restaurant is excellent staff,food,service etc.
For me I have no problem with pets but i must say when I'm having dinner i'm not a fan of having a dog resting his chin on my table while I'm eating. The pets shouldn't be allowed to roam around the restaurant while you're guests are trying to enjoy their meal.I think many of your future guests would feel the same way. And for some it might be a deal breaker for retutun bussiness as well as referrals. As for us we just asked the staff to take the dogs away from our table and they quickly did so.
Just our thoughts.

I vacationed at Dolarog Beach with my girlfriend for 6 days. If you’re looking for an exotic, off the beaten path, quiet place on the beach, with a very friendly and courteous staff, you will absolutely love Dolarog Beach Resort. But if internet connectivity and air conditioning are necessities (as it was for me), think twice about this resort. Although there is free WiFi in the common area (the restaurant/bar area) I could not download a movie and barely send a work email. Although there was an air conditioner in the room, it was rendered nearly ineffective as the room/bungalow lacked insulation (if you freak out over bugs & creepy crawlers, you will have difficulty relaxing at this resort). The kitchen produced good food, but even though I love pets, the dogs in the dinning area detracted from my enjoyment of the food, and my tolerance was stretched.

The staff was so friendly and extremely accommodating. They truly made us feel apart of their resort family. The beach was very private (just how we liked it) but if your looking for something with a little more night life or more restaurants, your only a 15min walk up the beach.
We can't wait to come back in the near future!

Outside of El Nido town, so relaxing and peaceful.
Beautiful beach and views, walkable to Vanilla Beach.
Owner of the Dolorog Beach Resort brought us to the pick up area for the tours and came to pick us up always on time.
We requested fresh coconuts and the next day it was delivered to our cottage.
Staff are super!
Will definitely stay there again!

Beautiful view, this property is in need of management. Each issue that came up was addressed by line staff employee. Requested upgrade because our unit didn’t have TV. Room move but TV had no signal and they were unable to repair.
Stayed one night out of three.
On the bright side, Both female employees were helpful and the attentive.
By the way we were the only guests staying at the property.

I enjoyed my stay at Dolarog, the sunset views alone make the stay worthwhile!
The rooms are comfortable and spacious, the staff are very pleasant and helpful, and the breakfasts and dinners (included) were also good.
All in all a lovely place for a quiet getaway!

One of the worst experience we have ever had. Cadlao Resort was half the price and we had a much better experience. I never leave reviews, but was so upset by our experience here that I began to make a list during our stay:
- Honeymoon suite cleaned at 3pm after all other suites
- Garden suite bathtub outside was covered in green mold / algae and unusable
- NO POWER in suite outside of 6pm - 5am, absolutely ridiculous when it was 90 degrees and humid
- No hot water our entire stay, said a monkey broke our water heater
- Shower was clogged and would not drain
- Consistently 1 - 1.5 hour waits for breakfast / lunch
- No vegetarian option for girlfriend, gave her lettuce and a few tomatoes at dinner as an alternative
- Ants all over suite, expected bugs as a bungalow...but clearly not controlled
- Consistently had to ask for toilet paper and clean towels
- WiFi rarely ever worked in the restaurant
- No power during checkout, used our phone lights to find everything
- Resort boat was late for our departure back home
- No breakfast on our departure date after we were told they would have it ready at 630, arrived at restaurant before any staff members were there
- Saw many disgruntled guests throughout the stay, owner sits around the resort and does nothing
- Traveling off resort was difficult unless you are on their schedule
- For 400+/night, would NEVER go back
