This resort has to be boycouted! This resort is out of date. Looks like they left as is from the construction. The welcoming is done by armed guy with AK type gun. They say it is because of the kidnapping which occured there in 2001. The welcoming manager is just interested by how much money he can make out of... More

The place was nice but you have to ride a plane, bus/car and boat to get here. You can do some snorkeling, kayaking or just swim in their pools. The rooms are great as well, but those who need internet connection will have to go to the dining area to get access. If you need some quiet time and have... More

Dos Palmas Resort is a tropical paradise in Honda Bay, Puerto Princesa. The resort is absolutely wonderful. Facilities are free. Food is fresh and plenty and fabulous (all meals are buffet). The staff is super accommodating. The rooms are large and comfortable. In short, it has got to be one of the best resorts I've been to. The catch, however,... More

We didn't stay at this resort overnight. We took the day trip the resort promotes. At a cost of $150 for two adults and a 2yr old the price is equivalent to a day pass at Disneyland. Although the buffet lunch was good you would not enjoy it if you didn't like seafood. The resort appears neglected. Everthing needs to... More

We decided to take a day trip out to this resort complex for Php2500 each. It is one hour out from Puerto Princesa by boat on a private island. The day did not start out well, as the company forgot to pick us up. After waiting by the side of the road for more than an hour (from 7:00-8:15 AM),... More

Friendliest staff always willing to serve you all the time. Rooms are spacious enough to hold 4 adults comfortably. Villas are by beach. Corals are indescribably beautiful. Would suggest more activities at night Food was so good. More

We had our company outing last November in Dos Palmas. And I can say that it's a wonderful place to stay in. From our arrival to the island resort to the food to the room to the attractions, everything seems perfect. The rooms are clean, spacious and well maintained, the food is also very delicious. I also ventured into different... More

Outstanding all inclusive vacay spot. If you want to have some relaxation and far from civilization, this is the ideal location for you. No need to worry about meals and attractions. Though, there are no tv in the villa still worth getting disconnected from the world. Staff are extremely courteous and ready to give a big smile and help. I... More

The staff was friendly. Everywhere you go within the resort, they will greet you. We stayed there last December for three days and two nights. As friendly as the staff are in the resort, our Guest Relations Officer was of no use. She only offered us options that would suit THEIR schedule and didn't even bother to make a schedule... More
