Amanpulo, Palawan Philippines

"If you want to splurge, why not try the luxurious Amanpulo
Resort on ultra-exclusive Pamalican Island. Amanpulo is the
idyllic retreat for a rich and famous clientele who seeks peace
and privacy. Amanpulo Resort in Palawan Philippines was designed
by Filipino architect Francisco Mañosa, was built in such a way
as to give its privileged few the impression that they are alone
on the island.
After and hour by private plane, you will arrive at a small and
elongated green island, set on an iridescent beryl and azure
sea, fringed with the purest of sands. The welcome upon arrival
is warm and personalized: champagne and canaés are served and a
personal golf cart-to be used for going around the resort-is
placed at your disposal. Your own personal attendant appears as
soon as you call him; you will be constantly reminded that there
are 250 people here ready to serve a mere 100 guest!
Within the Club House are the reception area, the bar, and the
restaurant. The reception area, immense and impressive, is all
in wood with narra floors and lauan columns and
ceilings. It opens out to a terrace with sliding panels, facing
the ocean. Rattan and coconut wood furniture enhance the
surroundings, while ornate wood pieces from Mindanao and wicker
from Palawan decorate the adjoining rooms.

The casitas or guesthouse, discreetly hidden in vegetation, are
perfectly private. You can choose to stay in the beach casitas
which have the best location along the beach; in the tree top
casitas nestled in the branches of large trees; or in the
hillside casitas perched on the hill's summit, offering a
spectacular view of the sea.

All the accommodations are extra ordinary in terms of both size
and luxury. The rooms are huge-at least 65 square meters-and
bright because of immense picture windows. Beige walls, polished
wood floors, interior shutters, designer rattan furniture and
beautiful accessories crafted locally, complete the interior
design.

The casitas have two comfortable divans at an angle along the
picture windows of the dining room-where you can have your meals
served-while listening to music. A vast bedroom, with a
king-sized bed, has all the possible amenities that you can
think of. A dream bathroom of marble and wood is complete with a
dressing room, two sinks, a bathtub and a separate shower.
The picture windows open onto a slightly elevated wooden deck.
Soft mattresses are strewn here, inviting you to watch the
sunset-as spectacular as everything else in Amanpulo. Each
casita looks out to a private garden, where a hammock swings
gently between tow coconut trees. A private path leads to a part
of a fabulous deserted beach where two deck chairs and a parasol
await you.

Amanpulo Resort has a superb, lagoon-type swimming pool bordered
with bougainvillea. After a swim, you can lie down on huge
mattresses scattered in the open-air cabanas.

Snorkeling in the beautiful coral reef encircling the island is
breathtaking. The spot is accessible from the beach and
visibility in the water is excellent. Diving, however, is less
interesting.
To have a perfect end to a perfect day, you can have a romantic
candle-lit dinner accompanied by soft, soothing music in the
resort's excellent restaurant.
