Do you dream of escaping everyday life on a deserted island? On the remote, reef-lined Pamalican Island, the Amanpulo boutique hotel in the Philippines offers dreamlike luxury with snow-white beaches, crystal-clear seas, pristine diving spots, and endless water sports opportunities. Dine under the open sky – the resort will spoil you with fresh seafood, the finest Japanese cuisine, wafer-thin wood-fired pizza, and Filipino specialties. After an exciting day in the water, you can relax at the Aman Spa and then retreat to the airy terrace of your casita or villa.
Experience wonderful relaxation with a local Cuyonin healing treatment in the intimate Aman Spa. One of the many soothing therapies is the Hilot Kaayo massage with banana leaves and cold-pressed coconut oil, which balances tension with alternating hot and cold applications. Four floodlit artificial turf tennis courts with relaxation pavilions, circuit training, a gym, and yoga and Pilates classes are available for sporty guests. You can also choose between snorkeling and diving at the countless reefs around Pamalican Island. Clear water, colorful corals, and a rich underwater world make the Sulu Sea an unforgettable diving spot. Sailing, fishing, windsurfing, kayaking, and pedal boating, as well as cruises by moonlight or sunset, are also offered on the beach.
Inspired by traditional Filipino bahay kubo houses, all casitas feature vaulted wooden ceilings, pebble-washed walls, coconut shell tables, large Cebu marble bathrooms, and private terraces. For a dreamlike view, opt for a Deluxe Hillside Casita, enjoy direct beach access in a Beach Casita, or cool off in the Treetop Pool Casita in a private plunge pool. There are also 18 elegant villas, just a few meters from the sea, offering two or four bedrooms, opulent, airy living and dining pavilions, their own kitchens, private pools, and butler and chef service. Perfect for a dream vacation with the whole family or a group of friends.
The Clubhouse Restaurant serves delicious Filipino and Southeast Asian-international cuisine with a view of the pool. Make yourself comfortable indoors among tables made from coconut shells and rattan chairs, or head outside to the terrace to dine in a relaxed atmosphere. For freshly caught seafood and delicious Spanish tapas by the sea, visit the relaxed, open-air Beach Club, where you'll find deck chairs and shaded seating right on the beach. Alternatively, Nama at the Lagoon Club specializes in Japanese cuisine. Don't miss the wood-fired pizza at the Windsurf Hut, followed by an aperitif with a cigar and live music in the Lobby Bar.
Amanpulo, which translates as "peaceful island," encompasses the entire sand and coral island of Pamalican. Just an hour's flight from Manila, a wonderfully secluded paradise full of peace and comfort awaits you here. Pamalican Island is only 2.5 kilometers long and lies in the middle of a 7-square-kilometer coral reef. Snorkeling and diving adventures, as well as kayaking and windsurfing, are among the highlights here, where you are sure to create unforgettable memories. In front of the clubhouse is a 30-meter swimming pool surrounded by lush bougainvillea trellises. Relax on your sun lounger in the shade of a parasol or in one of the three open-air salas. With only 42 casitas and 18 villas, the resort is intimate enough to give you an authentic feeling of carefree island life, far away from everyday worries. Enjoy either direct beach access or your own plunge pool.
