Since summer is here, it’s undeniably getting sweltering hot in the city. So, what better way to spend some time under the sun than visiting one of the Philippines’ most beloved spots—Palawan. Located deep in the scenic Coron is an enchanting floating hotel you can go to on your next getaway: the Paolyn Houseboats.

This off-grid floating paradise wonderfully captures Palawan's postcard-perfect ambiance, and it gives you the chance to live out the chill island life! The cluster of houseboats is nestled in a small lagoon that happens to be next to one of the region's most popular destinations—the Twin Lagoons! Because it's so close, most people can get there in a jiff just by kayaking!

The houseboats are split in three, all of which are only a short kayak trip apart, and each houseboat offers a different room variation fit for either friends, families, or lovers. However, most of the action takes place on the main houseboat, which features a restaurant and bar, as well as sunbathing areas. Go up and see the rooftop deck, which is also a great spot to catch a ray of sunshine to get that nice summer tan.
Adding a little bit of spice to the whole experience, this hotel offers a rotating menu to make sure everything they serve is fresh! All the meals range from P150 to P400, and they also provide a good selection of drinks, including bourbon, wine, tea, coffee, and juices.

There’s so much to do in this stunning summer haven. Just think, you’ve got all the Palawan goodness at your disposal with no other tourists around! You can go snorkeling at the lagoon's massive coral garden, or you can be the first to visit popular tourist sites like Kayangan Lake since it’s also only a speedboat ride away! Thanks to Paolyn's location, you'll also be closer to Banul Beach and the Barracuda Lake.


Paolyn Houseboats makes island dreams come true as you get to wake up early in the morning, already hearing the gentle crashing of the waves and seeing little rays of the sun breaking over the horizon—it's unrivaled! Hats off to this little gem in Coron!
