Exploring Philippines

Secluded Islands

Escape to luxurious privacy in two secluded parts of Palawan. After a night in Manila connecting from your international flight, head to D’Pearl Bay on the island of Busuanga. This calm bay is idyllic with sailboats bobbing in the water and very few properties in the area. You’ll have access to a private island beach, a relaxing spa, a long list of water sports, and views from your verandah out over the water. Round out your holiday on Pangulasian Island near El Nido. This exclusive island is home to one of the most luxurious resorts in the Philippines. You’ll be spoilt for beach choices and can pick a different spot to watch the sun set each day.

Please bear in mind that this itinerary is here as inspiration and can be changed in any number of ways. Every trip we sell is tailor made to suit you so that you’ll get the honeymoon you’re seeking. Please email or call (UK) 020 7112 0019 to discuss your ideal holiday in the Philippines.

Day 1 - Welcome to the Philippines!

This afternoon your overnight flight arrives in Manila, an energetic city with a historic heart. Your private driver will greet you at Nino Aquino Manila International Airport and transport you to your luxurious accommodation. We’ve not planned anything for this afternoon to allow you to recover from your flight, so relax or head out for a wander!

Accommodation

Day 2 - Fly to a secluded piece of Coron

After a leisurely breakfast you’ll be collected by your driver and taken to the airport for a flight to Busuanga. Upon arrival you’ll be met and driven another 45 minutes to your resort. Check in to your Hilltop Suite and explore your home for the next few days.

Accommodation

Days 3-5 - Luxury and adventure in Busuanga

Have a pampering massage, book a day on the private island with a picnic on the beach, go diving, snorkeling or fishing, or relax by the pool. We’ve planned nothing for you so you can make the most of your time relaxing into a slow pace of life.

Day 6 - Go south to the Island of the Sun

This morning you’ll be driven to the port of Coron for your ferry ride to El Nido. The boat ride should last four hours although conditions vary. When you arrive, you’ll be transferred to a smaller boat that will take you to Pangulasian Island. Enjoy the incredible scenery on the way and then luxuriate in your Canopy Villa.

Accommodation

Days 7-9 - Ultimate Privacy in El Nido

When you aren’t sitting by the pool or along the 750 meters of white sand beach, head out snorkeling, go island hopping, kayaking, paddle-boarding, diving, or make the most of the resort’s spa. Enjoy the final days of your holiday surrounded by El Nido’s clear waters and rising limestone cliffs. By the time you leave, you may begin plotting your next trip to this beautiful country!
