The first big challenge (or part of the fun) is to actually get to the Island (app. 15 miles off shore). This can only be done (private charter is available but expensive) by taking a resort ferry which leaves Taytay Pier @ 3pm. Since we made our own way as we were traveling around Palawan, we were told to be... More

I just went with my family before Eastern to Apulit Island. It was the first time for us in the Philippines, so we didn't know what to expect. Apulit Island can be described in one word "Paradise"! El Nido has 4 different resorts in the area which are all excellent but I personally think Apuit Island is the best! If... More

Wow, what a holiday we had here! I wasn't sure it was going to live up to the reviews that I had read, but it sure did, and then some! The Excellent: 1) Resort - It was beautiful and very well kept. Our cottage over the water was recently remodeled (or at least it looked like it) and all of... More

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m8JDH4V8XDY or https://vimeo.com/63139002 Our trip there was wonderful, great food, great service, peace and quiet, great snorkeling too. Worth every penny. The service was courteous, friendly, polite, and very understanding. I went on many snorkeling adventures, though I wish there were more, it was still enough to satisfy my needs there as I was only there for 4 days.

For peace and quiet, It's a place to be. Excellent for meditation , swimming, kayaking, snorkeling, diving. The staff treats you like a queen, with special arrangements everyday for food on different island . What a wonderful world this is..so beautiful! C'est la vie!

This is the place..... We went to three different reefs and also spent a lot of time on the house reef. The corals, the fish, the colors, the shapes and sizes - all a few feet below the surface - another universe entirely and well worth the somewhat daunting trip to get here. There can't be many places on our... More

We have travelled extensively over the world and objectively, Palawan is uniquely beautiful. Its a "last frontier" type of place that can be difficult to get to and back with some of the transport logistics not on par with the strived for (by the Hotel Group) experience. The beauty is in Palawan's fine little beaches, high cliffs, islands that sprout... More

We spent four days in Apulit in January 2013. Apulit is one of four El Nido Resorts. From our experience, and information we gleaned from the staff, it is probably the best El Nido Resort. While expensive, we received great value. The island is small; we were lucky to have been there with only 36 other guests (capacity about 140).... More

I have literally nothing bad to say about the island, the resort, the activities and especially the staff. This was the best vacation my wife and I have ever taken (and we've taken a lot) and I am already trying to figure out when I can go back. We spent two nights at the resort, but four nights would have... More
