We loved it here! Such a beautiful spot, accessed by a 10 minute boat ride from Teneguiban pier. Rochelle, Vanessa and family were the best hosts - hospitality to the max. Food was excellent and the accommodation was comfortable. The added bonus was the pigs and the goats and the cats and the dogs and the chickens! An absolute getaway - off the grid and as relaxing as it can get
We had to leave!

It was just perfect! I stayed with a friend for a week. If you look for a quite beautiful place this is it. Basically a private beach, best home-cooked filipino food, the most friendly hosts and a bungalow located right at the beach. Water is super clear for swimming. We also did an Island hopping tour and all arrangements were coordinated from the staff, everything was exceptionally well arranged! Though we were honestly even more thankful to come home to this secluded spot after a day in El Nido area... We extended our stay and as I am living in the PH it will definitely be on my lost of places to visit again!
Only thing to notice - you are quiet off from all transport etc. So, if you want to get around transport costs are an additional to keep in mind, but Vanessa was a champ in organizing everything smoothly!!

We had the best time ever at playa Encantada, the staff went above and beyond to ensure we had a great stay. We took a day trip to Darocotan Island from the resort for 2,000 php, this is definitely worth doing as the sea is crystal clear and there is a ship wreck you can snorkel around. The food served at the resort was amazing and reasonably priced. My partner is fussy but there were 3 or 4 different options including a meat dish, we loved every meal we had. The sunsets at the resort were out of this world. For one day we hired a moped for 700php from the resort and drove into el nido, this was a long trip but we managed fine on our first go on a moped. We weren’t expecting any wifi at all with the remote location, however we managed to get some in our bungalow which was an added bonus.

Where to begin? If kindness, peace, paradise, flavors, and the finest expressions of nature were to be embodied in a place, I would designate it as Playa Encantada. This location is indeed magical. It resembles a fairy tale set in a tropical paradise, without a doubt. The enchanting quality of this place is attributed to a remarkable individual named Vanessa, who adeptly, generously, and insightfully oversees its operations alongside two exceptional ladies, Carol and Helen, who prepare exquisite dishes featuring organic, natural, and fresh ingredients. The gentlemen responsible for maintaining this splendid location and operating the boat service to the village have consistently demonstrated exceptional helpfulness, with punctuality as precise as the roosters that crow every morning at the same hour. I have visited many beautiful places, yet what distinguishes this location as the most beautiful, special, and extraordinary of all is the dedication of the individuals who work here. Lunch and Dinner: 5***** Breakfast: 5***** Beach: 5***** Accommodation: 5***** Cleanliness: 5***** For those seeking peace, tranquility, a connection with nature (sea, forest, wildlife), and an opportunity to disconnect from the cacophony of the physical and digital worlds, Playa Encantada is the ideal destination. Please Note: Only your eyes will truly appreciate such beauty. It is advisable to set aside your mobile phone. I would like to extend my gratitude to Vanessa once again. She possesses extensive knowledge, invigorates the region, and boasts an impressive network of contacts. Should you require a motorbike, car, or tuk-tuk, Vanessa can arrange transportation for you in a matter of minutes; she can also recommend the best agency for touring the island. This commentary serves not only as a positive reflection on Playa Encantada but also as a plethora of commendations for Vanessa.

Playa Elcantada is a slice of paradise where everything is simply perfect. From the moment we arrived, we felt an incredible sense of warmth and hospitality from Vanessa and her wonderful family. Vanessa truly goes above and beyond to ensure every guest feels at home, and her efforts made our stay extraordinary. The resort itself is a charming, cozy haven surrounded by nature. One of the most magical aspects is the way animals freely roam around the property—dogs, chickens, cows—it felt like stepping into a serene countryside sanctuary. Waking up to this unique setting was an experience we’ll never forget. We were especially lucky to be invited by the lovely Filipino family running the resort to join their traditional New Year’s celebration. It was such a special evening filled with fantastic food, joy, and heartfelt moments. Being part of their family traditions made the experience even more meaningful and unforgettable. Playa Elcantada is truly a place where everything comes together—beautiful surroundings, delicious food, incredible hospitality, and a deep sense of connection to both nature and the local culture. We can’t recommend this gem enough and can’t wait to return!

This was the best place we stayed at during our 2 weeks trip. The location is amazing, it was exactly what we wanted - you are on a small island, there are only 3 bungalows, so it felt very private. We were right next to the sea, there was a beautiful garden there, palm trees, animals and a lots of space to hang around. The bungalow is comfortable, it had everything we needed. It’s also beautifully decorated, everything is very well thought through in case we needed anything (lamp, books in the drawer etc). It was really clean and we had housekeeping every day. Very very pretty room! A piece of art as for me :) Rochelle was so genuine and friendly, she runs the place very professionally. We had a great chat with her, she had given us some tips as to what we can do and see and just in general we learnt a bit about Filipino life. There is literally nothing close by so we ate at Rochelle’s place but we were aware this will be the case and we thought the food was excellent, good value for money. It was various, fresh, healthy, good portions, and we were able to try Filipino dishes. It was excellent as well as how the food was presented and how much attention we had received from the stuff. Rochelle can also organise the popular A B C D tours if needed. There is an opportunity to visit Daracotan island - it was a 15 min boat trip, it was a great experience. There is a ship wreck you can see, beautiful sea life, sandy beach.
Nothing! Wish we could have stayed longer.

First impressions are everything- after a pretty long and bumpy day on the road we were quite tired but as we arrived on the beach near Playa Encantada there were people RUNNING with big SMILES on their faces approaching us- what a welcome! 🤗❤️ The beach location is far from most tourism places and took some time to get there but as we came there we decided to stay the entire three days on the property instead of doing the island hopping tour as we planned before. Total relaxation! This place is quiet, great sandy beach, the best staff (I will remember Vanessa’s smile every day, and her family was super helpful! Always running to make the place clean and comfortable 👌) and owners- Rochelle and Alberto were great to talk to and made super good local food from fresh produce. Loved it! Lovely animals on the property and cosy places to read a book in silence. And the best mango-banana shakes we’ve ever had🙌 The bast views during sunrise and when the night is clear- the thousands of stars you can see! Amazing!
I would recommend staying there for a few nights in a row since the remote location. We did have some plans to move around during our stay to do island hopping but the time and cost of going to El Nido would not be worth it. If you come to Encantada Playa, no need to plan anything else.

We had a great stay at Playa Encantada. The place is remote and it really feels like a slice of paradise. There are currently only 3 other bubgalows, so you are not surrounded by other tourists. This only adds to the great vibe. The food is amazing and the staff was very helpful! Highly recommend!
The only point of improvement is the shower. I realise that the remoteness of the location makes it difficult, but the shower did not have temperature options and also had a very weak flow.

Lovely secluded spot at the beach, which you only share with the other guests. Staff was super friendly. We loved the breakfast. Cute little piglets and lovely sunrises.
The shower didn’t work properly, so you couldn’t wash your hair. The house smelled strong and intense, which was a bit distracting. They have many animals, the dogs and cats won’t leave you alone while eating. Dinner was only okay (we are vegetarian, might be great if you eat fish).

We spend only 3 nights, but this was the best experience ever. Surroundings are so tranquil and special. Nature is wild and free. Lovely family which runs this resort made us feel so welcoming. We felt more like a family than costumers. Best hospitality, best food, people and atmosphere. This is the right place for your body and soul. Even our 2year old boy still remembers that few days there. And now we exacly know the place for our honeymoon. I will definitely spend a month in this place next time. And at first we didnt have big plans to come back to Phillipines soon (not because of Phillipines, just there are so many places to visit) Big thanks for everyone, that made our vacation so special. Best wishes! Looking forward for coming back:) we really miss everyone and everything there.
our stay was too short 🙈
