Bay Cottages

For full appreciation of the scenery, DPAIR created 10 Bay Cottages standing on reinforced stilts above water so guests may enjoy the beautiful Palawan sunrise and sunsets,.the panoramic view of Honda Bay and living close to the fishes that have made the island popular to local and foreign tourists. Dos Palmas Arreceffi Island Resort is also famous for the preservation of its lush mangroves.

A Bay Cottage could accommodate two adults and one child while a Garden Cottage is spacious enough for five adults. All cottages have private balconies; air conditioning; toilet and bath; hot and cold running water; a mini bar; and an intercom phone with NDD/IDD.
Facilities
Restaurants and Bars

Although fresh seafood from the waters of Palawan are easily the most popular items on the buffet table, the kitchen staff, our in-house Chef, is equally adept at whipping up other dishes to suit both local and international tastes.

Our different dining venues are designed to make meals satisfying to all the senses. Kara-e-nan restaurant, which can seat up to 200 people, is the main dining venue. But if you want to add even more spice to your meals, you could have breakfast or lunch at one of our huts on stilts right in the middle of the sea! For al fresco dining, our special dinner buffet is served in a different part of the resort every night. Kara-e-nan’s bar, Ereneman, is an ideal hangout for wines and spirits once the sun sets.
