Breezy tropical villa with mountain view
Alexis was very kind and friendly, she helped us arrange a ride from the airport directly to the accommodation. The place is located with the heart of nature, there are very nice dogs and macicky. This is a beautiful place to stay with a beautiful pool and a Bosnian tranquility.

Private house comfortably local
Rosalie's place was the perfect little hideaway in El Nido! Located about 15 minutes out of El Nido town in a nice local neighborhood. The co-host Mat met us for check-in and check-out and explained how to do everything in the house and gave us great recommendations for restaurants and tours. Rosalie provided great communication before and during our stay. The house had everything one would need for a relaxing stay in El Nido. I will definitely stay here again if I ever return to El Nido!

Home away from home in Puerto Princesa
Sir Doy's place is great for family vacation in Puerto Princesa... Very comfortable.. Spacious and neat rooms.. I love his kitchen (inside and outside)...Also very near to a public market wherein you can buy fish for a cheaper price... Sir Doy's neighbors were also very kind and gave us some tips on where to find good products from Palawan... This place is highly recommended ...

Secret spot 1
One of the best Airbnbs I have ever stayed in, completely exceeded expectations. They helped us when we needed help. Arranged us to be picked up and dropped off at the. The bed is on a different level. Coals on the grill are difficult to get started but they came over and did it for us. Highly recommend!

Babaland 2
We were so happy to have stumbled on Babaland and decided to stay for five days Incredibly peaceful and only a short drive on empty roads to town where there is a great market for fresh fish, poultry, pork and vegetables We utilized the outdoor kitchen daily for our meals and the activity became one of many highlights throughout our stay Minda and the team were nothing short of fantastic!! Well done

Casa Vela Puerto Princesa City - A Cozy Bungalow
The place is situated in a private subdivision that provides security and safety nonetheless especially there is a security guard at the gate 24/7 which is amazing as there is no place like that commonly. The accommodation itself is a house that has 3 bedrooms that each can accommodate 2 to 3 people. This Airbnb is by far the most amazing and affordable place that I had ever experienced everything you see at the photos presented is at ease and provides great air conditioning as every room has one and even the living room! All in all the place is amazing and provides everything you need in a house. The owners itself are very responsive on what you need and they even provide the list of places near the house that you can go to. I highly recommend this place. The only down part of this place is that kinda far from town and transportation will kinda be tricky so you need to compensate for that by contacting neighbors outside the subdivision that have tricycles. But nonetheless, amazing.

Tantan vacation house
My parents had an enjoyable stay in this house!

Waterfront luxury villa near white sand islands
This is a beautiful property with great people and amazing views! The Villas are a real paradise! The only downside is that you will eventually have to leave. We felt extremely welcome by Jen, Peter and the staff. I have to say that my family and I haven’t been treated better at a resort or Airbnb. We were picked up at the airport with a van. The airport is 30 min away. Coron town is 30 min away as well. Jen will arrange for boat island hoping, diving, snorkeling, fishing or land adventures. Even if the villas are not in town you still have full access to all the tourist things you want to do if you choose to. When we arrived the first word that came to mind was “magical”! There is a restaurant and a bar between the two villas with menu you can order from. We wanted to try Phllippinian cuisine and asked them to just cook what is fresh on the market that day and to be part of the local food. Every day was different and delicious! We had lunch packed for our day and boat trips. Amazing
Your guide to Palawan
All About Palawan
The archipelago of Palawan in the southwestern Philippines is known for its outstanding natural beauty, including white-sand beaches, crystal-clear water, rolling hills, steep cliffs, and lively small villages.
While visiting Palawan, you can snorkel near vibrant coral reefs, snack on freshly caught parrotfish and marshmallow-like marang fruit, scuba dive around World War II shipwrecks, and take a shaded snooze on the powder-soft sand. However, not everything in Palawan is about the beach. The area offers historical, cultural, and ecological attractions like Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park, and the Tabon Cave Complex, where early human artifacts from 50,000 years ago were discovered.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Palawan
Palawan has warm temperatures all year round, and the biggest weather variance occurs between the dry season and the rainy season. The rainy season, which generally occurs between June and October, ranges from intense afternoon rainfall to non-stop rain for multiple days. Although this can make planning activities a bit tricky, it is still a good time to visit, as there may be more vacation houses to rent. The dry season offers the best weather to take advantage of outdoor activities across the island. However, it does get busy and the demand for apartment rentals may increase dramatically. There are also many festivals held across Palawan throughout the year, which may affect the rates and availability.
Top things to do in Palawan
Nacpan Beach
Located on El Nido Bay around 45 minutes north of the town of El Nido, Nacpan Beach is one of Palawan’s most beautiful beaches. The sparkling golden sand is lined with hundreds of palm trees, while the crystal-clear turquoise water provides a great spot for sunbathing and swimming, and the many cafes and restaurants nearby rent sunbeds and deckchairs. At its southern end, Nacpan Beach meets smaller Calitang Beach — walk up the hill between them for an awe-inspiring vista.
Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park
Designated a UNESCO World Heritage site, the Puerto Princesa underground river flows through an impressive cave system. Within the caves, you’ll find stunning limestone formations, old-growth forests, and unique native wildlife — listen out for bats as you make your way through this otherworldly place dotted with fossils and waterfalls.
Big Lagoon
The Big Lagoon sits on an island 45 minutes away from El Nido, its dazzling blue water creating a stark contrast against the surrounding limestone cliffs. The lagoon is a popular place to swim, rent a kayak to explore, and spot sea turtles — a common sight in shallower water. The best time to visit is during high tide, due to the sharp coral at the lagoon’s entrance.
