Last day vibes at the stunning La Palapa! We’ve spent an unforgettable week here in beautiful Port Barton and picking this spot was the best decision we made!
The Staff: Wow, just wow! The kindness here is next level. Just two days before our arrival, we got a message from management providing us instruction traveling from Puerto Princesa to Port Barton, They even offered to cover our tuk-tuk ride from Port Barton to the terminal! Their communication was fantastic - from updates about local brownouts to tips on where to find safe food. Shoutout to Regina for her exceptional hospitality and to the rest of the staff, Rona Mae, Jing, Matet and Lorena.
The room: We had the pleasure of staying in this absolutely lovely place, and I must say, it exceeded all my expectations! The moment I walked in, I felt a sense of warmth and coziness.
The Cats: We will certainly miss Lilo and Meow Meow. Every morning when I open the door, they're always waiting right outside. They are so sweet

She goes out of her way to make you feel comfortable, spends time taking to you, and seems to always be available and responsive on WhatsApp.
We loved it so much and Port Barton in general that we wanted to extend our stay, but unfortunately for us, they were fully booked. We will be back as we are sure we will return to Port Barton.
The location is great and only a short 5 mins walk from the beach and main strip, yet it's quiet and up a track which can get muddy when it rains but that is quite common in Port Barton and all part of the charm of visiting a...
