Villa Kulintang was truly a once in a lifetime experience, if you like nature, peacefulness and local experiences you can’t miss it. It is tucked away in a remote area, after arriving at Pilar port you are transported by an outrigger canoe to the Villa, a really special experience. The villa itself is beautiful, and you have it all to yourself. It’s located at the top of the garden with two floors overlooking the jungle with a glimpse of the water. The terrace on the lower floor is perfect for chilling out, doing yoga and enjoying the surroundings. We spotted several collared kingfishers flying around the garden which was amazing. While we were there we also enjoyed some tours around the local area in the villa’s outrigger canoe. We went to some local white sand beaches and sandbars which were really beautiful and were shown some of their local sea grapes agriculture. The thing that makes this place really special is the people. The owner was always available for communication and ensured things were running smoothly. Further, there is a whole team of people who stay on premises (at the end of the villa’s garden) and I immensely appreciated their hard work and talent, which really made our experience in Villa Kulintang that extra bit special. They tend the grounds beautifully and made lots of suggestions for what local experiences we could have while we were there. In addition, we opted to have our meals cooked for us and I’m so glad we did! Chef Chris cooked us an array of incredible feasts, allowing us to try some local delicacies in the comfort of our ‘own home’. In addition, a special thanks to Sylvia and Gemma who provided us with fantastic company every day and coordinated to ensure our every need (and more!) was met. Gemma also gets credits for her amazing artistic skills when it comes to decor, every day the dining table was a new work of art!

Love the place. The owner are very helpful and friendly. Offer us some beers and want to please. Recommend to stay there. The town is pretty close by walk and they’ve got a kitchen where you can cook yourself.

Lovely place to stay with incredibly kind staff and owner. The food in the restaurant was delicious and with a huge variety for vegans and vegetarians. Roberto, the owner, helped us with everything we needed and gave us plenty of pointers for our stay in Donsol and in the wider Albay region. It was a lovely place to have some intimate and peaceful time but with sufficient opportunities to connect with other travellers!

Owner was very welcoming and friendly, big living room and garden, our room had two big windows and they served us breakfast and coffee before we started our whaleshark experience

Friendly staff, did everything to make our stay pleasant, great pool and location. Excellent food at the facility and Annie is such a star and so are all the staff and no request was a problem and we really were spoiled and well treated.
