Accommodation in Donsol

Villa Kulintang was truly a once in a lifetime experience, if you like nature, peacefulness and local experiences you can’t miss it. It is tucked away in a remote area, after arriving at Pilar port you are transported by an outrigger canoe to the Villa, a really special experience. The villa itself is beautiful, and you have it all to yourself. It’s located at the top of the garden with two floors overlooking the jungle with a glimpse of the water. The terrace on the lower floor is perfect for chilling out, doing yoga and enjoying the surroundings. We spotted several collared kingfishers flying around the garden which was amazing. While we were there we also enjoyed some tours around the local area in the villa’s outrigger canoe. We went to some local white sand beaches and sandbars which were really beautiful and were shown some of their local sea grapes agriculture. The thing that makes this place really special is the people. The owner was always available for communication and ensured things were running smoothly. Further, there is a whole team of people who stay on premises (at the end of the villa’s garden) and I immensely appreciated their hard work and talent, which really made our experience in Villa Kulintang that extra bit special. They tend the grounds beautifully and made lots of suggestions for what local experiences we could have while we were there. In addition, we opted to have our meals cooked for us and I’m so glad we did! Chef Chris cooked us an array of incredible feasts, allowing us to try some local delicacies in the comfort of our ‘own home’. In addition, a special thanks to Sylvia and Gemma who provided us with fantastic company every day and coordinated to ensure our every need (and more!) was met. Gemma also gets credits for her amazing artistic skills when it comes to decor, every day the dining table was a new work of art!

The place is clean and cheaper than many other accommodations in Philippines.

Excellent stay in a small village next to Donsol. Host is very helpful with everything. She will call taxis, order food and give information about the area.

Great Place! The owner and staff are very accomodating and make you feel very Welcome. I was allowed to stay a bit longer in my room on my Last day, so i could Take a shower after a whaleshark Tour in the morning. Airport Transfer was organized by them for a great price. They have very good vegetarian food Options! I Recommend the veg. burger and vegetable Curry and also the Milk teas are heavenly! Location is right next to the firefly Tour starting Point and whaleshark Center is less than 5mins by tuktuk. The shower would not stop dripping after i showered but they fixed it immediately! AC was in good condition aswell!

I loved this homestay! The family was so nice and always helping me with all the questions I had. They serve the best breakfast aswell. Would recommend you stay here when you are in Donsol!!
