Experience a different side of El Nido by immersing in nature-based activities not commonly visited by regular tourists, and participate in a variety of activities to recenter, renew, and recharge the soul in a beautiful setting.

The venue is an eco-friendly resort which is solar-powered. There is no airconditioning and lights are turned on at night until bedtime. However, the villas were designed to be cool even during the day and at night, given its location, gets the gentle breeze from the ocean.
Given this venue is in a more remote location in Nacpan beach, but also easily accessible due to its beachfront location, expect a detox retreat as there is no signal in the venue.
