Baquit Island Pet-friendly Vacations

A Hidden Gem of Tranquility and Charm! Carpe Diem Villa and Resort is a true oasis in Puerto Princesa! From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by the peaceful, Balinese-inspired atmosphere, surrounded by lush greenery and elegant sculptures. The rooms are spotless, beautifully designed, and well-equipped — we especially loved the private pool access, which made the stay feel extra luxurious. The staff were warm, welcoming, and incredibly helpful. They went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable, even helping us plan local tours and arranging transport when needed. The main pool area is stunning and well-maintained — perfect for lounging with a drink from the poolside bar. Dining at their restaurant was a delightful surprise. The fusion of French and Filipino flavors made for a unique and satisfying experience, though we would have appreciated a bit more variety in the breakfast options. While the resort is tucked away from the main town, it’s a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle. Just be prepared to arrange transportation if you plan to explore more of the city. Overall, Carpe Diem is the perfect mix of comfort, relaxation, and attentive service. We’re already planning our next visit! Rating: 4.7/5

Staff treated us like royalty. Made us feel special.,., amazing place to relax

Beautiful property! Great service! Great amenities! Serene and peaceful here ;) thanks for a wonderful vacation!

Daluyon is a beautiful beachfront resort, I love that they have kayaking and paddleboarding available for guests which we enjoyed . The breakfast is inclusive and it was delicious, service was warm and exceptional. We enjoyed our dinner at the beach and the strawberry mojito was delicious. Booking our tours was very efficient and easy, front desk is very attentive. Laundry service is also available so we did not have to pack wet clothes. The Filipino massage was very good and just what I needed to ease some tensed muscles. Daluyon is a beautiful beachfront resort with exceptional service and staff. It’s also located very close to the world famous Underground River, sadly our tour was cancelled due to some bad weather, I guess this gives us some good reason to come back, thank you Daluyon staff for such wonderful service!

Excellent Hotel and staff are really friendly

This was hands down the best resort I have ever stayed at any where in the world

Two pools on the property was great, it could be nice if they ad a qrcode to connect to the wifi in the room, had to go to the pool Bart's to get the code and connect to the hotel wifi.

Overall the hotel is nice but not a 4 star accommodation. Needs lots of maintenance. Work was ongoing. Hopefully when finished the resort will be modern and nicer. Paid $5 per night for an extra blanket in our room for our son. Very excessive. Limited dinning options and selection for international travelers. Pool area was nice, sandbar area not so much. Courteous staff overall. Hot water was inoperative for 2 nights of our 4 night stay. If we travel to Palawan again we will try another area. Puerto Princessa is not a travel destination for beach or relaxation.
