We’re family travel vloggers from California visiting Puerto Princesa, Philippines for the first time. For a more detailed review with videos visit my IG account and YT channel @momduty.
Our main goal in Puerto Princesa was to visit the Puerto Princesa Subterranean Underground River National Park. It’s one of the 7 Wonders of Nature! We didn’t realize it wasn’t actually in Puerto Princes but in another town. So we landed in Puerto Princesa and drove 90 minutes north to a town called Sabang where the underground river port is.
We booked Daluyon last minute as a convenient resort, because it’s only 3-5 minutes away from Sabang Port which is where we take off to see the Underground River. But little did we know how much of a hidden gem this resort really is! Wow!
I’m so impressed with all it has to offer! The location is great because it’s next to One of the 7 Wonders of Nature: Underground River. The resort also has its own private beach, which is so clean, has soft sand, no rocks and a beautiful cove filled with hundreds of palm trees. It’s literally paradise! The resort also offers FREE activities which includes kayaking, mini soccer, paddle boarding and archery. Plus it has its own reading cottage/library, gym and spa. I love that this is more of a bouquet resort and not huge with too many tourists. It’s more private and chill.
Our room with sea view was perfect for a family of 4. It was so clean and had air conditioner. The whole area including the entire resort was well maintained.
My favorite part of the resort is the restaurant, Pawikan Restaurant. I not only love it because of the delicious Filipino food, fresh juices, cocktails and live music every night but I really love it because of the staff.
The staff made our stay so memorable! We arrived late and although the restaurant was closed, they stayed open for us past 9pm because they knew our kids would be hungry from a long travel day. I mean WOW! Talk about service!
A HUGE THANK YOU to Ralphfe, Rico, Yohan, Edmond, Cindy, Alyana, Potri, Ailyn, Carla and Clarence. They took such good care of me and my family during our stay. Thank you for making us feel so comfortable Ralphfe! You and your team are incredible and we will never forget your hospitality. We miss you guys already!!!
I highly recommend this place for families, singles, retirees, couples or guys/girls trip! It’s for everyone wanting to relax in paradise with amazing service!!!!
