Full accommodation information
Hotel information
A member of the prestigious Small Luxury Hotels of the World group, this resort is set on its own private island.
With a prized location nestled between dense jungle and a golden stretch of sand lapped by sparkling water, this is a tropical beachside paradise. Pangulasian is approximately one hour’s flight from Manila or Boracay and then 20 minutes by road and a 45-minute boat transfer to resort.
With activities on offer from Reef shark and turtle tours to island hopping cruises, sunset hiking to kayaking through Cathedral Caves, there’s plenty to keep you occupied here – if you can bear to leave the luxurious surrounds of your villa.
Beach Villas sit directly on the soft sand and highly recommended, while Pool Villas enjoy a secluded location and feature a private swimming pool. For the ultimate in privacy, we recommend the Kalaw Villa, situated in a tranquil cove towards the west side of the island and the Canopy Villa’s set 15 metres above ground, these villas also include a bathtub and are reached via a walkway through the forest.
Other resort facilities include a swimming pool, spa, diving courses and a variety of watersports including Hobie Cats, scuba diving, stand-up paddle boarding and windsurfing. Amianan Restaurant serves a range of international cuisine, with snacks and lighter meals available at the pool bar.
