Unique stays in the Philippines
Bamboo treehouses, cliffside villas and island hideaways from Palawan to Siargao.

Palawan
El Nido and Coron reward travellers who book beyond resorts: bamboo cabins above limestone lagoons, and island homes reachable only by banca boat.
Siargao
The surf island now hosts architect-designed villas with open-air living, natural materials and coconut-grove views.
Before you book
Check typhoon season, transfer times and host reviews; many of the most beautiful stays are deliberately remote.
