Perfect for peace, relaxation, and beauty
If you’re looking for peace, quiet, a connection to nature, relaxation, pampering, and beauty, this place is it. We found the staff and entire team at this island to be warm, caring, and welcoming. The main house is absolutely gorgeous - we stayed For a week in the Master Suite and had a gorgeous sunrise on our patio every morning. We also loved the spa and its beautiful view at the top of the island - a couples’ massage was exactly what we needed. The snorkelling is absolutely gorgeous and the care and love that goes into caring for the reefs is inspiring. We will absolutely return and most likely for more than a week, next time. And we can’t wait!

This is a GREAT property, it is paradise. Chelo and Andy (the owners) really make you feel like home. Everything from the moment we arrive to the moment we had to leave, the whole experience is simply amazing.

The staff are wonderful and the owners add the personal touch of spending time with their guests. They made me feel like family. My room was represented as a fan room and it had ac which was great as it was the hot season. Snorkeling was great right off the beach.

Everything about Noa Noa is what is described on their website. It is absolutely the best vacation we've ever had. Far away from all the tourist and on it's own private island that is surrounded by nature and corals. It was so peaceful and relaxing. We enjoyed the delicious food, rooms, snorkeling, spa, trail around the island and pool. We highly recommend any couple looking to getaway from work to check out this place. Best customer service. Chello and Andy were great host! Thank you!

Everything was exceptional. We would rate this place a twelve on ten - it was that good. The place is out in the middle of nowhere, and Andy and Che are trying their best not to disturb the local ecosystem too much, and where possible, to conserve and preserve it. The property has access to a very colorful reef with a lot of fish, and one feels very isolated as there are a very few guests on the island (only 6 rooms), and its atleast an hour away from the mainland by boat. The views from the room, and from the top of the island are fantastic, and we loved the spa (felt like we were in the middle of a jungle with the natural sounds), and the chef dishes out one five star dish after another in a five - six course exclusive meal.

OMG I can not say enough good things about this place. The first 2 nights of our stay we were the only gusts on the island and it was unreal. The owners are so nice and welcome you to all your meals. The island is exactly what we wanted. To relax but if we wanted to do something we could. Overall amazing honeymoon experience. The only downside is you are forced to pay additional fees for boat transfer to an from property as well as all meals are a set price. The rooms are gorgeous but it would of been nice to have at least the boat transfer included with the stay.

Awesome! Awesome! Awesome!
Andy, Chelo and all the staff are so hospitable, their services are so personalized that you truly feel you are staying in a very private resort, as if it is your own island. My wife and I felt we were so pampered at the excellent Spa and so with all of the other amenities, food, etc. Had a great island hop at "Elephant Island" which tested a bit of our endurance but rewarded with a beautiful swim at an inner lagoon as we gaze at the cathedral like ceiling carved out stones or rocks. Snorkeling galor at NoaNoa island. Wow! can't get off the water with so much corals, fishes, giant clams and all sorts of marine life. Walking around the island is so energizing, breathtaking but beware you need good knees.

5 star hotel 4 star service
I want to give overall 5 star but I believe service is lacking the '5 star flair'. Facilities are excellent! Beautiful private island, excellent rooms, excellent snorkeling, good food. Andy and Chello are really accommodating and ensuring your stay is comfortable. The staff are really friendly and helpful, they just need more training for service flair. Communication is a bit of an issue if you do not speak 'Filipino". They really try to make your stay a great one and they are very attentive. Very laid back. Just if you have been to a 5 star resort or hotel, you can tell that it is 5 star. I understand that it is a private island in an isolated place but a little bit more training for the staff would make it more great. No complain really, we had an excellent time in the island.

Beautiful location, superior service
A unique opportunity to be on a private island. I was completely spoiled by the wonderful staff at Noa Noa. The food was amazing. Every meal was a treat. The island offers many quiet spots to enjoy your surroundings. I also enjoyed snorkeling, kayaking and paddle boarding during my visit. The coral is spectacular, better than anything I saw while in El Nido. My room was comfortable and offered a great view. Overall, I couldn't have asked for anything better.

A get away to relaxation
Arrived in El Nido and our driver was there waiting to take us down to Taytay, Casa Rosa has a good breakfast if you take the early flight. The speedboat was a nice touch to take for about an hour over blue seas. Upon arrival, where should where we would be staying. The room has all these little things that are well down that really make the place shine. Food everyday was great and service was outstanding.

Lugnets ö
Fantastiskt väl omhändertagandena alla vis. Det perfekta stället för avkoppling eftersom det är få gäster på ön. Snorkling i världsklass med alla vackra coraller.

What can we tell you more than the title. This place is amazing and the hosts make you feel like home. You don't need to worry about anything except enjoying the moment and wishing the time can stop so it last longer. Thank you again for this wonderful place!!

Amazing private island even for singles.
Took a almost 3 week trip to Philippines and this was my first stop. I decided to take the trip aloneIt and it was definitely worth the long travel and I look forward to going back. From arrival in Palawan till departure I felt like a king. The food was fresh and delicious, the ambiance relaxing and the staff very welcoming and attentive. Chelo and Andy arranged a private pickup from airport and from there on it was 5 star service all the way. The ladies at the bar where very attentive and Hampton was an amazing guide and diving instructor. I would highly recommend this beautiful island to anyone; couples, singles or even groups.
