Accessible only by private plane, Amanpulo is a secluded island hideaway in northern Palawan, Philippines.

Fringed by white-sand beaches, turquoise waters and a coral reef, Pamalican Island is around an hour from
Manila, yet feels a world away from anywhere. Amanpulo is the only property on the island, it’s airy Casitas
and Villas opening to the 5.5-kilometres of coral sand that encircle a jungled area. With an Aman Spa,
a poolside Clubhouse, laidback Beachclub and Lagoon Club, a Dive Centre and a seasonal Kite and Surf
Centre, guests can be as active as they choose. Other diversions include tennis courts, island hikes, turtle
spotting and exploring the kaleidoscopic reefs just offshore.
