A Serene Escape at Palawan Sandcastles - Perfect for Those Seeking Peace and Adventure My stay at Palawan Sandcastles from August 9 to 16 was nothing short of exceptional. Despite being in the middle of renovations, the resort graciously opened its doors to us, providing a level of hospitality that truly stood out. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel right at home. Their caring and friendly demeanor, along with their willingness to accommodate all our requests, made our stay incredibly comfortable and personalized. The resort itself is a hidden gem, perfectly situated on a peaceful beachfront that offers a serene escape from the busier areas of Coron. If you're looking to avoid the crowds and simply relax, Palawan Sandcastles is the ideal place. The tranquil atmosphere, coupled with the calming sound of the waves, creates a truly rejuvenating environment. For those seeking a bit of adventure, the resort also offers exciting tours, such as the dugong adventures, which provide a unique opportunity to experience the local wildlife. Despite August typically being considered the off-season, we were pleasantly surprised by the weather. Only brief rains passed through this part of Busuanga, allowing us to enjoy the beauty of the surroundings without any major disruptions. In summary, Palawan Sandcastles is a fantastic choice for anyone looking to unwind in a peaceful setting while still having access to unique experiences. The combination of the caring staff, beautiful beachfront, and the serene atmosphere makes it a must-visit for those seeking both relaxation and adventure.
It was clean but needed a little bit more of dusting.

Lovely, huge, comfy bed. Big bathroom. Nice hot shower. Fan and aircon. Food was all right but expensive for what it was, and you can't go anywhere else to eat. Airport transfer - expensive but necessary. Super quiet and peaceful. They offer bicycle hire and kayak hire.
In the middle of nowhere (which can be a good thing, but just be aware that you can't go and buy food anywhere else) which means it costs like 2000 pesos to get from there to the airport or to anywhere else on the island.

Beautiful remote setting. Very comfortable and clean accommodation. Great staff. Great meals & portions. Good communication through email.
Unfortunately the meals were a bit expensive. The property had warned us in advance that this may be the case (remote island, inflation etc). We were glad we had the heads up or may not have brought enough cash.

Really nice location right on the beach. The bungalows were really cool with their own bathtub with a seaview. There is a possibility to rent kayaks and bikes. Plus, the beer is cheap!
Expensive transfer.

Beautiful area, nice beach houses and friendly staff. Good place to have a little retreat from everything else.
The food was relatively expensive for what you got.
