Our stay at the Alon villa was absolutely perfect! The villa is situated in a beautiful, peaceful setting, ideal for relaxation and enjoying nature. Every morning, we started our day with a delightful breakfast outdoors, surrounded by greenery and birdsong – a true paradise for the soul. The staff was incredibly kind and welcoming, always ready to assist and make our stay as pleasant as possible. We especially appreciated that, since we didn’t have our own transportation, they provided us with the contact of a driver named Willy. He was truly the kindest driver ever – always available, smiling, and ready to take us wherever we needed to go, at any time of day or night. Since the villa is located away from the main road and tricycles couldn’t reach the property, Willy accompanied us to the villa every evening, ensuring we arrived safely. This level of care and attention truly impressed us. Overall, our stay at the villa was a wonderful experience, and we will definitely be coming back! We highly recommend it to anyone looking for the perfect place to relax.

From the moment your driver picks you up at the airport, to when you step the island and into paradise, you already feel the luxury and comfort. Each and every staff member makes you feel at home, at takes great care of you, remembering names, preferences and checks in regularly. The resort is magnificent, hidden in a secluded bay on a private island, and lives up to its 5-star fame. The restaurant with great menu, the edgeless pool with ocean view, the bar with breathtaking views, they bay to snorkel in, everything adds up to a great stay. The beach view villa is large, with a great kind bed, and direct views on the beach, and has its own indoor and outdoor bathroom area, with a large rain shower. There is a safe, a TV with apps like Netflix etc, and an airconditioning that works great to cool things down for a proper night sleep. While there is no cell reception on the island, they do have fast and good internet via Starlink. From every villa, or resort area you can access the wifi and be connected, if needed. Power is steady as they have their own generators and large solar farm up the mountain. Everything is taken care of: from carying your suitcases from the dock to the villa, the turndown service at sunset, the extra towels at the pool and bay area, a water hose at your front steps to shower off the sand from your slippers, etc. Definitely a 5-start paradise!

I had an incredible stay at Astoria in Palawan. The facilities were top-notch, with beautifully maintained grounds and comfortable accommodations. However, what truly stood out was the staff. They were exceptionally kind, helpful, and welcoming from the moment we arrived. Every request was met with a smile, and they went above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect. We highly recommend this resort to anyone looking for a relaxing and memorable getaway. It's worth noting that the resort is somewhat isolated, with not much to do in the surrounding area except for a nearby aquapark. If you're looking to explore beyond the resort, transportation is necessary. However, if relaxation and great service are your priorities, this resort is an excellent choice.(from UKRAINE 🇺🇦 )

Having breakfast with a breathtaking view was the best. Location was perfect and right in the center of the hot spots. Even though it's surrounded by restaurants, souvenir shop, bars, and all the fun night hubs it's very quiet in the rooms. We booked 2 rooms. 1 was a triple room and 1 was a double. The room sizes were big and beds were very comfortable. The staff were very polite and speak English very well. The food in Skydeck was super delicious and portions are large. The Halo Halo was the best and a must try. There's a bank machine in the lobby that's very convenient if you need Philippine pesos. Overall we were very pleased and will come back. Totally recommend this place. Thanks for making our stay a very pleasurable and memorable one CUNA ❤️

Everything was just great, starting from the airport pickup provided by the hotel (small surcharge was required), all the way to check out. The rooms are sparkling clean, all the refreshments are renewed everyday, they even put a little sweet cookie and it was a different one every day! That was adorable and a very nice touch by them. The staff is absolutely amazing, everyone and I mean everyone was super nice, welcoming and attentive. They knew what I needed even before I knew it. To top things off, the rooftop! Amazing sunset views with some cocktails/beers in a happy our, what could a person need more? Thank you for an incredible time, hope to come back in the future.

First I hadn’t even seen Panorama Resort because of its lower rating. I then booked despite some mixed reviews as I found it to be the most beautiful and tasteful resort. And - it was a little heaven for one week for us. I zero understand previous critics - it’s as much comfort as you can find while being on a remote island. I don’t feel it’s overpriced - you pay for the tasteful design, the reclusiveness, perfect service and many complementary services. I was sick one day and the staff immediately went downtown to get medicine for me - no extra charge asked. Loved every minute of it!

Honestly, one of the best experiences I ever had. Great place for snorkelling, beautiful corals and sea life. Staff were just amazing, nothing to complain. We felt welcome and taken care of constantly. Even more expensive hotels in Maldives cannot compare in hospitality. Even though I got stung by a wasp on my last day, the doctor was very professional, spoke perfect English and took care of me. 10/10 would recommend and definitely come back

One of the best hospitality experiences I’ve ever had the pleasure of booking. The resort is beautifully secluded, and yet just a 30 minute boat ride away from Palawan mainland. The level and quality of the resort is really second to none, they’d literally go out of their way to make your experience as perfect as you’d expect it to be. Big thank you for the entire team

The wow factor was definitely at Twin Lagoons and Kayangan Lake. Loved swimming and snorkelling although coming from Australia, the corals and fish were a bit underwhelming. Plenty of cafes and restaurants in Coron Town. We especially liked the french restaurant Armihan Bistro, Poco Deli (next door to Epic Cafe) and Le Voyage. All catered for Gluten Free meals as well. Tuk Tuks are plentiful and easy to catch. 50 pesos for 2 peoples to take you anywhere within the town boundaries. We also walked to the hilltop lookout Mt Tapayas .. but beware, there's 720 steps to climb to get to the top from the car park!!!

Absolutely!

Absolutely! San Vicente really flies under the radar compared to El Nido and Coron, but that’s part of its charm. It’s less crowded, more laid-back, and still boasts those stunning, unspoiled beaches—especially the 14-kilometer Long Beach, which feels like a hidden gem. The slower pace and warm, genuine hospitality from the locals really give it that authentic "island life" vibe. It’s perfect for people looking to relax, connect with nature, and avoid the more tourist-heavy scenes. Some even say it’s what El Nido felt like 10 or 15 years ago.

If you're looking for a beautiful tropical island to visit,...

If you're looking for a beautiful tropical island to visit, put this one on your list. It's relatively uncrowded, the people are very pleasant and the vistas are jaw dropping. If you are a diver, and have an interest in WWII, you will find an incredible 11 Japanese wrecks to dive. I'd recommend Pirate Divers, they are very professional and very conservative when it comes to evaluating risks. They also know the wrecks like their second home. Coron is a bustling town with good food and pleasant people, but the beauty of the island is the back country. I liked it enough in December that I'm returning in February. To get around, I'd suggest renting a scooter. If you are new to powered two wheel vehicles stay out of Coron, and pay attention to the roads, there are some surprisingly tight turns. Otherwise, since it is relatively uncrowded you should be fine.

If you intend to visit Palawan you need to be more informed than I was. The Philippines are a poor country. Accommodation is cheap and as such you get what you paid for - No hot water, some cockroaches, you cannot swim in the water because of the jellyfish, plenty of sandflies and no shop to get any relief medication. There is no way to move around unless you organize transfers that cost you as much as your accommodation. A must see if you would like to see the culture. We were unable to snorkel due to weather

The calamian group of islands of which Coron is part of, is beautiful. And I hope all the measures to keep it pristine and unlittered will be successful always. There are many breathtaking sights. You would need a sizable budget though to be able to enjoy the boat tours which are wonderful. If you have the time, visit Culion. It is historical (a UNESCO site), and while the places to see could do a little tidying up, nevertheless, the history of that place invites reflection and inspires--many heroic people lived on that island. Kudos to the religious who have kept the place going since it was first established. The Culion museum should be your first stop.
