Amanpulo, which means "peaceful island", embraces the entire sand and coral island of Pamalican, an hour's flight from Manila.

This private island is located in the Quiniluban group, close to Palawan. It is the most exclusive resort in the Philippines and offers a luxury stay in utter seclusion. The breathtaking white sandy beaches are surrounded by clear turquoise waters teaming with marine life and a coral reef lies only three hundred meters from shore.

The resort has 40 casitas (little houses) scattered from the beach up to the hillside amongst lush tropical forests. Each casita is styled on the traditional Filipino "bahay kubo" home. The spacious bedrooms have a king size bed along with two window beds and are decorated to provide understated luxury with wooden floors and furniture.

The Cebu marble bathrooms are very generously sized with a raised bathtub, shower and a large dressing area. Each casita has its own wooden sundeck with loungers for you to relax in privacy.

A golf cart is provided for you to further explore this stunning island at your leisure. The Club House restaurant and bar opens out to spacious terrace with spectacular views over the swimming pool and out to sea.

The restaurant offers a la carte dining with a varied menu including Asian and Continental cuisine and specialises in seafood. The resort boasts a beautiful spa, 30 metre pool, tennis courts and all manner of watersports including diving, fishing and sailing. For those wishing to enjoy a slower pace of life there is an open air massage sala and library.
