Once the studio of renowned artist Pacita Abad, earth and art come together at Fundacion Pacita to create the most unforgettable and picturesque stay in Basco, Batanes.

Sitio Tukon, where Fundacion Pacita is located, is a quiet hilltop area about 15 minutes from Basco town. Surrounded by open pasturelands, it offers wide views of the Pacific Ocean and Mt. Iraya. The area is peaceful and sparsely populated, with a few traditional homes and farmlands nearby. Cool winds, open skies, and a sense of stillness define the place. It’s a simple, quiet neighborhood — far from the busier parts of town — where nature sets the pace.
