Description from owner

Description

The villa is in the middle of the forest, fronting a beautiful beach and a stone throw away from the world famous Palawan Subterranean River. A place for families, friends, lovers, adventurous people and those who prefer the quietness of nature. The villa can house about 12 people and 2 babies (cribs are at your disposal) in 3 large air conditioned rooms 1 kingsize bed each, a single room and an attic with 5 beds for groups or kids. We also welcome pets in our villa. On top of the hill is an fresh water infinity pool with great views of the beach. A beautiful place to wait for the sunset. It is surrounded by trees with friendly monkeys hanging on it. Fruits like mangoes, santol, calamansi, wild mangosteen and cashew are available in different seasons. Two ponds full of tilapias for bamboo rod fishing are located near the garden. The beach is also rich with shells and fish. The sound of the singing bird is heard everywhere in the villa with some rare birds flying around the house. Some lucky goers were welcomed by dolphins and turtles! This is a place where turtles lay hundreds of eggs each year and safely return to the sea. Most importantly, it has a wide and calm beach with a very fine sand!

On site activities : dart, volley ball near the coconut trees, snorkeling on a nearby reef (equipment provided), pétanque, biking (2 adult and 1 kiddie bikes available), watching turtles laying eggs at night during the season, surfing (we have 2 surfboards at your disposal), or just relaxing on the terrace while sipping an ice cold drink or a fresh coconut (courtesy of the house).

Nearby activities : boat tour to visit the famous UNESCO protected Underground River national park, trek in the forest, ziplining above the sea in Sabang (700 m long), tour of a centuries old mangrove, hiking to a village hidden in the forest by the sea, caving in limestone cliffs, sea fishing at night, waterfall showering, etc.

The villa, nestled 80 m away from the sea and the beach shower and gazebo, has a large kitchen with a view on nearby rice terraces and is powered by solar panels during daytime and by a silent generator at night (8PM to 7 AM). Lots of society games are available as well as a selection of DVDs and English and French books. Kids are welcome and baby chair and crib are available.

And for those who can't live without phone and internet, network is usually available, albeit very slow, on the view deck .

Belle et grande villa récente située dans un superbe paysage naturel entre

Getting around

Marufinas is the nearest village: located in the lush forest but a stone throw away from the sea, a good 45 mins hike will bring you to its littlest huts and friendly inhabitants. The larger village of Sabang is 25 mins away by banca from our beach: starting points of many activities, it is also home to two very good international standard restaurants as well as to little sari sari stores where soft drinks and basic groceries can be found. Marufinas est 1 tout petit village à 45 mins de belle marche. La bourgade de Sabang est a 25 mins de banca de notre plage: point de départ de nombreuses activités, elle abrite aussi 2 excellents restaurants internationaux ainsi que de petites échoppes où l'on peut trouver boissons et épicerie de base.

Response from the owner Hello Gavin, thank you so much for your kind words. We were very happy to welcome you. Your proposal to Rosalie was the buzz of the whole local community ! Kids around were so excited and delighted to gather as many flowers as they could and to hold the big "will you marry me ?" beach banner we had prepared for you :-) I am sure they too will remember for a long time this great day ! With all our wishes for a long and happy life with Rosalie, Viel and Peter :-)
