Find hotels near Busuanga in Palawan, Philippines

When we arrived in Busuanga, a staff assisted us right away to the van waiting for us. They gave us cold towel and bottled water. The land travel was one hour and boat ride was less than 30mins. And the moment we arrived in the island, they welcomed us with a song and a welcome drink. They then drove us to our water villa and we are pretty amazed with the view while riding the buggy. It was one of the most breathtaking view we have ever seen. It was that good! The room is so colorful and so comfy. The jacuzzi is already filled with water when we arrived which we enjoyed right away. The view while using the jacuzzi is again, so breathtaking. It was one of the most memorable vacations we had. We will surely comeback

Superb location to see spectacular pristine natural attractions. No crowds. Busuanga Bay Lodge (BBL) has a breath taking lobby and infinity pool. Rooms are fabulous only surpassed by the smiling warmth of the professional attentive staff. A truly well run guest focused facility. I read the cell and internet has been an issue with this resort in the past but good news is a new cell tower is being erected as at Oct 2018 - so no future issues for social media addicts. Do not miss BBL and it’s micro South Cay private day tripper Island with azure waters and it’s white powdered sand beach straight out of a dream. Can’t say enough about this place. Have travelled the world extensively first class and seen the rest. This is the best for the paultry money you’ll spend at BBL when others charge up to five times as much. Do yourself a favour and book this place but don’t tell too many as I won’t get in next time if everyone books. Yes - I am a genuine Australian guest. Elated as you can tell.

We enjoyed very much our stay in La Estancia. This is a very classy and simple design resort for few families/people, which turns the place very exclusive and makes you feel like living in a private island with superb service. The staff is great, with best level of personalized service and hospitality. About room facilities, I partialy agree with comments of Luisa C. (29 Jan 2016), since we got the same room with no mirror or the plastic chairs in the balcony (there is no classy design here, haha). Superb food... so be prepared for lots and lots of eating because food is spectacular. But note that you have to pay PHP 1.500 per person per day ($32,5 USD) and there's no other option around. No WIFI and no signal in the hotel (unless you go up the hill, 5 min walking), which turned into a nice surprise since we felt really disconnected and relaxed for the 4 days we spend in La Estancia. Family and guests chat and relax (or enjoy the activities of Busuanga) instead of been chating and messaging via the internet. Superb staff, place and experience.

Our stay at Al Faro was good. We really enjoyed the beautiful view. We stayed in one of the Bungalows with sea view. The only this you should know is that there is not much to do except from going Island jumping, Though that really was some beautiful trips we did. The corals on that side of Busuanga is the best. The hotel is far away from cities and noise. Al Faro is like a little quite oasis. Getting there is a bit expensive. It's cost 2000 pesos is you book the hotel transfer and 3000 if you choose the local taxi service. The ride is a 45 minute bumpy ride, but it was worth it. To get to the hotel you have to take a one minute boat trip. The hotel provides that service. To get to the hotel you have to climb a steep path way. We're recommend staying at Al Faro for 3-4 nights so you have time to see most of the beautiful islands.

We had a wonderful time in Sanctuaria. The place is beautiful, with an amazing view from the bay, the jungles, the mangrooves and the stars. If you are looking for a place to relax, fell the authentic energy of Filipinas, and also be close to the wrecks and to some other features of Coron, that is the place. a fantástic guy that's probably running one of the best places in Coron. Of course you must be used to some adventure...maybe one day you don`t hace running water, or something you wish to eat, but is part of understanding the place where you are: far from Coron town, in the midle of the jungle where things sometimes are not so easy as in your country. Kaykak is available for free, the bungalows and the tepee are beautiful, food is done with love as, the chef is always taking care of the guests. Also, in the area you can meet beautiful people that will make your stay in Sagrada an unforgetable hollyday. You can rent a motorbike, dive, drink a beer in Al Faro or just hang out. Is posible to do Island Hopping from there even to Kayangan and other spots near Coron Town. By the way....is cheap to get in publuc transport from Coron, you just have to know that buses are runnin from Coron to Sanctuaria from 10 am to 1 pm. Anyway.....if I go back to Busuanga that will be my home again. Thanks....we really enjoy the time. Take care and happy 2015. All the best

My stay at Sandcastles was great! Loved everything. If you are expecting a typical resort: swimming pools, loud packed bars, gift shops, this is not it. But if you are looking to truly get away from it all, this is the place to be. Be reasonable, you are at a resort in the Philippines, you will have uninvited guests...mosquito net over the bed. Kayaking is a surprisingly offered activity.

my friend and i stayed at the coral bay dive and beach hotel in early february 2012. i decided to go there as coron is one of the new hot destinations in the philippines, less than one hour away from manila (where i now live), and has amazing wreck diving. i wanted to combine diving with some "surface" adventures, but we ultimately ended up spending the majority of our time diving. the day before flying back, we kayaked just off the resort beach and it was amazing. apparently you can see dugong (sea cows) frequently just around the corner from the resort, in the afternoon. we did not, because we went late, but other guests did. i think there are other attractions (island hopping, trekking), but if you are not into diving and staying for more than three days, i would probably suggest to stay on the main island (busuanga or coron) so that you have more places to explore. the hotel is simple but very charming. rooms are bush huts with hammock hanging outside. they are clean but without hot water. electricity runs at night between 6 pm and 6 am. the absence of air-con makes the adjustment to the hot temperature easy (there are fans in the rooms). my american [hint: air-con dependency] friend did not complain :d the staff was extremely friendly and helpful. they first checked us in in a regular room above the dive shop. i went to the reception and politely said that i booked a luxury room so the room i got was not what i expected. i was given a larger more comfortable room (in a cottage) in no time. i could really appreciate that. food in european and filipino. bread (real non-sweet european bread) is baked every day. i stayed only three days, and the variety over that time frame was good. you can always get one meat and one fish dish. this was helpful because the friend who was with me does not like fish. steve, the dive instructor is a delight. if you want to make a person happy, bring him mark and spencer milk chocolate digestives!

If you want to escape crazy Coron, this is a fantastic place to be. Feels almost a bit like a homestay, as the owners Family and other travellers are around most of times. Nice village, friendly staff, good food for reasonable prices, small waterfall in walking distance, dive shop around the corner (which I cannot fully recommend). only down side is that there was not always water and WiFi never worked.. would have loved to stay longer.

we arrived at busuanga apt. and were picked up per agreement for a fee of one way. upon arrival we got a beachside bungalow instead of a poolside since staff thought it would be more suitable with infant. we spent three days here doing a snorkeling trip to nearby islands which was the highlight. white sand, lots of corals and fish and a great guy/boat captain made our day. the staff at the hotel were very helpful and food although a bit expensive by philippine standard turned out to be tasty and plentyful. i would highly recommend this place to families with small children or couples. the only drawback was the hotel beach which had some algaes but i think it had to do with lowtide at the time.

The place is beautiful, the views are stunning, surrounding corals nice. The room was very comfortable and clean, the infrastructure were good (a pool and yoga studio are in construction) and the food really really good! What is also special about this place is the story and concept behind. Spend some time with Frank, the owner and learn all about it. This is a great story and he is a super interesting man! We would definitely be back!
