It was a long arduous ride from El Nido Airport, but worth every hump and bump you'll get while on the tricycle ride. It was literally paradise here on earth once you reached it in any way via van or motorcycle. My husband, our 4 year old daughter and I stayed in one of the cottages from May 9 to May 14, 2017. It was relaxing and peaceful. The beach is beautiful.

The staff was amazing to us. Even the owners were so easygoing that they would help you literally every time. They are very nice people.

The food was typical Filipino dishes mixed with some Western flair. You could request whatever fresh seafood caught during the day.

Overall, the experience was excellent. Bring mosquito repellant and apply in the early morning or before sundown if you are going to walk along the shorelines. This is not the fault of the resort. Philippines is a tropical country. I grew up here and one thing is constant: insects. I also learned that Vicks Vaporub is very effective on the insect bites. You will see a variety of tropical insects from mosquitoes to centipedes, caterpillars to cockroaches. The insects love the humidity. Definitely bring some insect repellant and Vicks or After Bite gels.

Tips for future travelers to Duli Beach Resort : Travel light, bring insect repellant, enjoy the sandy beach, and savor the magnificent view as soon as you wake up in the morning until sundown.

If you are going to do the tours: We did all the tours privately and combined Tour A & B and C & D together in 2 days. Do the tours on the specific agency the owners would recommend: Tarawis and you will not regret it. The Tarawis staff and boat men were very professional, respectful and excellent with our 4 year old. The tour guide "Kuya Doods" not only guided us every step of the way, he also ensured that our daughter is looked after the whole time. He watched her like a hawk. We encountered a very poisonous box jellyfish at the sandbar and we were so thankful that he was carrying her while managing to get on the seashore. It would have been a horrible experience if it wasn't for Kuya Doods. The jelly fish was just at least a few feet away while he came from the boat to the shore. It was horrifying that this type of jelly fish is actually not only poisonous but even deadly. We left the sandbar beach and went to another beach where the boatman driver saw a sea snake. It was just our luck to see 2 very dangerous ocean creatures. We left this place quickly and eventually head back home. All in all, we definitely recommend Tarawis tour agency who takes safety seriously. They have the knowledge and experience of El Nido Palawan waters.

Such a beautiful and remote place. The bungalows are spacious, basic and offer the most unique view to the beach. Our children loved the surfing with the friendly staff who also liked playing chess with them early in the morning. Kevin and the other staff were very accommodating with our food requests. The owners are a lovely young Dutch family, most welcoming and kind. They live at Duli Beach and are developing it nicely. The only warning I wish to give to future travelers is to be well aware of sand flies at dawn and dusk. They are fastidious and then rather painful. With the exception of my daughter, we all got terribly bitten without realizing it there and then. Now after a week we are still healing the infections with cortisone and antibiotics.

Duli Beach is really a heaven on earth! What a beautiful, pristine and gorgeous beach! Away from the hustle and bustle, just you and the beach and nature..

The owners Max and Elma are very nice, helpful and friendly. They see to your needs and questions that you may have. At nights, it would be the guests of the bungalows and the owners having dinner in the relaxed, quiet restaurant. Really a nice time out and a great time to catch up on reading and books!

The bungalow is basic but clean. I miss falling asleep to the sounds of the waves and the jungle behind the room. Thanks Max and Elma for the lovely and memorable time! I will be back soon!

My girlfriend Sera and I found this place while riding down some trails. We were really glad we did. The water was the best in Palawan and the rooms and restaurant are directly on the beach. It's incredible! Max the owner and his wife are fantastic people and so welcoming, nothing is a problem for them. We made a second trip back another day and wished we could have stayed longer. I would highly recommend Duli Beach Resort

Duli Beach is a perfect consummation of resort and ideal tropical surrounds - shut off from the main tourist trail there is nothing to do but; stop, breathe and escape.

Departing from the main road to the unsealed road you will wind through the small scattering of local villages. The best passage is assisted by a local car or tricycle and not for the faint at heart.

But once you arrive a pristine secluded beach awaits that feels like your own. By now the the world is long gone and the looks of envious day trippers are priceless as you check in.

The accomodation is the best and most appropriate for a small eco resort. A lot of thought has gone into making the self contained bungalows feel comfortable. While they offer good private retreat, they too let in the ambience of the outdoors. Power is limited, but being a traveller who has chosen to unplug from the world for a while there as no need.

While you are consumed by holiday bliss there is nothing more to do but drop your bags and hit the beach. Which is a popular surf beach for the locals and there are boards for hire too.

But if ‘Hang ten’ is not your style the resort bar is a perfect place to hang out by the beach. Offering breakfast for guests, lunch and dinner. The menu is limited to what is local and available, prepared well and tasty. The Filipino staple beer Sam Miguel are in the fridge and served with a smile too.

As you indulge in your own holiday sanctuary natural wonder comes right to your door. Duli Beach is also a nesting place for Green Sea Turtles. If you are lucky enough you may witness a once in a lifetime opportunity to witness them hatch.

What makes Duli Beach the perfect meeting place of resort and natural sanctuary is dear to the owners heart. Set in complete harmony with its surrounds - you too will feel that way as you are consumed by Duli Beach.
