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!

really good stay, simple but with all the necessities.

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.

Super friendly people here! We talked a lot with the owners and had a lot of fun with them. They even made us a lot of vegetarian food! Definitely a great place to stay

Very accommodation owner and very helpful

Location to Port Pilar and right next door to Mugshot Cafe for dinner. Also very close to 7-11.

The penthouse apartment was excellent. All the staff at the Inn Ansol, Creig, Irene, Karan , Inse were wonderful and went out of their way to help us. They also have their own transportation to travel around which was so good. Don also drove us to our Mitsibis Bay Resort in one of their luxurious car.

Very friendly and helpful staff. Very good breakfast.
