Ocean Green Eco Lodge

Avoid this place at all costs!!! – it looks like a tropical eco-retreat, but it feels like a cold, crumbling nightmare. Don’t be fooled by the word “eco” — this is not a peaceful hideaway. It’s a rundown, soulless guesthouse with zero care for guests and a shocking level of disrespect from the staff. The atmosphere is cold, detached, and deeply unpleasant. No smiles, no service, no kindness — just a clear desire to take your money and give you nothing in return. When I asked for a towel after swimming (too exhausted to walk back to my room), I was told, “We don’t do that. Go get it yourself.” And when I asked for a manager? Same dismissive response. Later, I asked for help carrying my heavy suitcase up a steep staircase in the middle of the night — they refused and responded with rudeness and arrogance. This is not hospitality — this is humiliation. And yes, it’s shockingly expensive for what you get — overpriced discomfort, delivered with a sneer. Now let’s talk about the actual room: It’s incredibly basic, falling apart before your eyes. The floor creaks, even has holes in it. Mosquitoes, cockroaches, beetles everywhere. The mosquito net is hung so low it touches your face while you sleep. There’s no proper air circulation — the room is stuffy and suffocating. The fan is so weak it’s basically useless. No AC. No comfort. No care. The toilet and shower are outside, exposed and poorly maintained. And the worst lie? That this place is quiet. There’s loud music playing from the locals’ speakers all day, Some kind of party or disco going on in the evenings, Roosters, dogs, road noise — it never stops. You won’t sleep here. You won’t relax. You’ll just count the hours until you leave. I’ve stayed in many remote and rustic places. This is not rustic — it’s neglect, laziness, and indifference, wrapped in a fake “eco” label. Don’t come here unless you want to be disappointed, disrespected, and bitten by mosquitoes while listening to bad music and barking dogs — all for an absurd price.

The food was fantastic the staff were great the location 10/10. The attention to detail on the food was brilliant. The setting for an evening meal was beautiful the sunset was stunning, what a lovely evening. The rooms available to stay looked very nice and when we return we will be booking in, the infinity pool is fantastic but is only available to staying guests. I would highly recommend a stop here even just to look at the view over coffee

Great stay & incredible food at Ocean Green. The staff were all really nice and helped us to organise a very specialised trip with a local guide. The food was the best we had on Palawan island and the chef really is great. We still talk about his dishes weeks after our stay. Thanks guys

Exceptional place if you want to get close to nature. Truly friendly and helpful staff members. Great food (also many vegetarian and vegan options)! Stunning views :) Ask for the private snorkelling/boat trip! We really enjoyed our stay and the quiet pool area.
