Pet-friendly holiday rentals in Calamian Islands

Great place with all the amenities needed for a stay! ☀️ We were able to rent a scooter (about 15 minutes from downtown) 🏍️ A few general power outages that last a maximum of 5 minutes (not disturbing) and very good wifi! I would recommend this place far from downtown Coron for this relaxation 😎

We enjoyed our stay very much. It’s a little off the beaten path and because we were travelling around by car it fit our needs exactly. Catherine and family were very helpful to assist even when we didn’t ask for help. Hopefully we will get an opportunity to stay again.

This was one of our absolute highlights of our Philippines trip. Arvin and Kenneth provided an excellent service. The contact with Alfred was very helpful and friendly. If you like privacy and a beautiful small island this is a MUST. Thank you so much for this amazing experience. We enjoyed every second being on this wonderful island!

I would highly recommend Nature’s Retreat! The name is quite accurate, and if you are looking to really immerse yourself in a beautiful nature setting away from it all, this is the place. Our crew was nine friends from around the world who gathered here over New Year’s, and to give a sense of the experience, on NYE, we all waded out into the warm shallow bay surrounded by the tropical jungle and mountains, had the hosts turn off the electricity to the Retreat and welcomed in 2020 with the only lights being the stars and bright Milky Way above. Stunning. As were the bonfire the hosts built, the trips they took us on around the islands with the property’s catamaran, the massages they organized (so cheap and very very good) and the other tours they helped us arrange. In terms of the hosts, we cannot say enough good things about Sam, his family and his crew. They are incredibly kind and affable human beings, completely professional and on top of all of the logistics and always available for any assistance or advice. And a real bonus is that Sam and his wife are incredible cooks - we learned they own a restaurant in PP, and it showed in all the meals which were very well done. There is no question the place is rustic, and it is secluded (no neighbors). And that is its amazing charm. But don’t expect to be able to just pop in and out of town in 5-10 minutes on a whim. Our only caution is, before booking, check Air Swift for available flights in and out of El Nido Lio airport. Otherwise you have to fly in to Puerto Princesa and it’s about a 5-6 hour drive to the Retreat from there, depending on traffic. Shouldn’t be a problem if you look well enough in advance (which we failed to do) – so just a lesson learned. All in all, this was a really special trip for our group, and we would really recommend you consider it for yourself.

I stayed one week, and had an amazing and unique experience here at Sarah's place. It's is a very typical and simple house with bathroom, kitchen, a nice bedroom and a very relaxing hammock. The house contains all you need for a long stay, there's also a fridge. What made my stay unique was the fact you really are inside a village living like locals. You can get the water from the well and bring it back to home, and you feel really close to the people living here who are welcoming and very friendly! It's not made for everyone as there's also noise, karaoke, rooster, music, but if you don't mind noise as I do, and want to live something different, you'll love it for sure! To me it's not only a place to stay but an experience, a chance to live as locals and to discover how life feels here. I'll keep this place and the people I met in my heart!

best welcome manager we had , he provide us with the necessary information did also booked the your there amazing food and tours nice swimming pool with a nice view also good to doe kanoo and fishing , breakfast was super I would recommend everyone , they have there own free shuttle boot it 15 min from the town , but more than worthwhile

Very nice host, friendly and helpful with booking tours, airport transfers or laundry (for only 50 pesos). The apartment is very large, beds comfortable, but the furniture is old and not usable. Overall the place has a lot of character, partly due to lush tropical garden. Location is close to the main street, but it’s on the hill. It takes 7min to walk downhill. Going up is a bit of a struggle, so we took tricycle (only 50-80 pesos). The apartment is based on the ground floor of a two story house, with other apartments. Host lives in a house next door.

All staff are very friendly and helpful. The food is excellent. Will definitely come back in the future

Great new place in a quiet neighborhood! Pool was super warm and the staff was friendly and attentive to any issues or concerns. I would recommend this place to all my friends.

Had such a great time at this location. Recommended

Peter and his wife were great hosts and very helpful with everything we needed. They are great people and we really enjoyed our stay

Great stay. The apartment is very well equipped, clean and comfortable. Perfect place to stay several days. Communication with host was excellent, very responsive and ready to help. Close to the main road and near a very good eatery. Really recommend staying here.

Jeah and her family were just lovely. I really enjoyed staying at their cottage and also extended my booking. To have the beach that close was just wonderful and whenever I needed something, Jeah and her family were just there to help out. Just wishing them all the best and would love to come back again anytime soon. Maraming salamat po.

We came here for our honeymoon and some tranquility after the wedding craze and many hours of travel from London. The place was paradise with beautiful white sands and crystal clear sea, fresh coconut juice and yummy home cooked meals. We felt like we were staying with family as everyone was so welcoming and warm. It was always quiet and private. Watching the stars at night while going for a swim was a treat. Going on the kayak during sunset and watching the sun go down behind the coconut trees on the island was absolutely breathtaking. Island hopping tours and snorkelling was available once we felt more energised and they were phenomenal. We loved taking naps in the afternoon and waking up just to get back into the sea! We enjoyed being surrounded by the animals, the cheeky goats, the pigs (especially Bacon!! Haha he’s funny!) the dogs, all playing together. We were really sad to leave and will definitely be back when we can. Thank you again to Rochelle, Vanessa and everybody!

My whole stay was amazing, everyone was very very helpful. They were so helpful and very very welcoming. Very close to the main city and close to good restaurants. The owner and his wife were very very nice and even helped me arrange an anniversary surprise for my girlfriend.

There’s a beautiful energy here that’s hard to put into words - you sense it in the calm of the animals, in the land itself, and in the delightful children who are curious, gentle, and full of light. This is a special place. Eden is an incredibly authentic and intuitive cook - her food comes straight from the heart. As vegetarians, we were so grateful for the special Filipino dishes she prepared for us - truly some of the best we’ve ever had. We appreciate her sharing a little tour of the precious farm which showed how deeply she cares for the source of it all. Eden’s kindness, strength, and generosity are a rare gift - we feel lucky to have experienced it at Garden of Eden.

Great and unique place that's quite close to everything!
