Direct booking

What's on, right now

Not limited-time drops. These hold for every stay booked directly with us, every day of the year, unless a season or a length of stay changes them below.

An adults-first, 42-key boutique resort on the Bacuit Bay side of El Nido. Barefoot luxury without the performance: no lobby music, no scheduled fun anyone has to join, no upsell at breakfast. Direct-booking led by design — we would rather know a guest before they arrive than pay a commission to meet them at the door.

  1. A stone-edged pool at dusk reflecting a peach-gold sky, rattan loungers with linen cushions, two canvas umbrellas, lit hurricane lanterns on the deck, palms and karst stacks on the horizon. Warm throughout, no blue cast.

    Green season

    From June through October, a stay of four nights or more booked directly with us includes one island-hopping tour for two and a two-hour Hilom treatment each, and we hold the room until 3:00 PM on the day you leave at no charge. The bay is close to empty in those months and the rates are about two-thirds of February. If the Coast Guard suspends sea travel while you are here, the typhoon policy applies on top of this and you keep the tour for a future stay.

  2. An empty massage table draped in white linen with three rolled towels under a thatched pavilion, a second table and rattan chair behind, planting, white sand and karst beyond, soft shade.

    Honeymoon

    Tell us it is a honeymoon when you book and the room is set before you arrive: the bed dressed with gumamela from the garden, a bottle of sparkling on ice, calamansi and lemongrass in the outdoor shower, and a handwritten card from whoever is on the desk that night. There is no charge for any of that. If you want the evening built around it, the table for two on the sand is from ₱9,800 for the pair of you, and the 5:00 PM Hilom Ritual from ₱5,600 each is the right way to spend the afternoon before it.

  3. A traditional wooden sailing outrigger with two canvas sails catching a low sun, bamboo outrigger arms, calm jade water, karst headlands in silhouette, a canopied cabana onshore.

    Proposals

    We arrange a handful of proposals a year and we take them seriously. Tell us the plan, or tell us you have no plan and we will suggest three. The usual shape is the sunset sail on the smaller bangka, from ₱2,400 a guest or ₱14,000 to charter it outright so the boat is yours, coming back to the table on the sand from ₱9,800 with the lanterns already lit. We will keep a photographer out of sight if you want one, and we will not tell your partner anything, including that you have written to us. Give us a fortnight if you can.

  4. A low timber bed with turned-down white linen under a gathered mosquito net, timber louvred doors folded open to white sand and a turquoise lagoon, a rattan chair, wide-plank teak floor, morning light.

    Five nights or more

    Book five nights or more directly with us and the fifth night is on the house, in any class and any season, along with a round-trip Lio transfer if your class does not already include one. Beyond ten nights we will talk to you properly rather than apply a formula — Bea handles those herself, and the answer usually involves the boat.

  5. A thatched-eaved terrace with a woven hammock strung between timber posts, two timber loungers with linen cushions, a shell-inlaid plaster parapet, white sand and a karst-framed cove a step beyond.

    Returning guests

    Book directly and you keep your previous rate band for the same class and season, even where the published rate has moved, plus a guaranteed 3:00 PM departure and the room number you had before if it is free. Ask for it by number — a surprising proportion of our returning guests do, and the desk keeps the list.

The terms, in full

Not the excerpt. The whole policy, the same one our own team works from.

Cancellation
Free cancellation up to 14 days before arrival. Inside 14 days, one night is charged. Inside 72 hours, or on a no-show, the full stay is charged. Peak dates — 20 December to 5 January, and Holy Week — carry a 30 days window instead. Date changes made in the free window cost nothing.
Typhoon guarantee
If PAGASA raises Signal No. 2 or higher over Palawan, or the Coast Guard suspends sea travel to El Nido within 48 hours of your arrival, you may move your dates once with no fee within twelve months, or take a full refund. If you are already with us when it closes in, you stay at no charge until the boats run again. We do not ask guests to gamble on the weather.
Deposit & payment
A 50% deposit confirms the booking and the balance is due on arrival. We take Visa, Mastercard, JCB, bank transfer, GCash and Maya. Rates are in Philippine pesos and include the 12% VAT and the 10% service charge. We never ask for card details in a chat, in a message or over the phone — a payment link comes from our secure page and from nowhere else.
