Description

Discover one of the most exclusive ways to travel between El Nido and Coron, combining a three-night stay at the extraordinary Ariara Private Island with a private journey through some of the most beautiful and remote islands of Northern Palawan.

Rather than taking a simple transfer between destinations, your journey becomes part of the experience.

Departing from El Nido, travel by private vehicle to Dipnay before embarking by boat toward the islands of Linapacan. Along the way, stop at Dimanglet Island, a secluded private island surrounded by clear water and coral reefs, for snorkeling and an island lunch before continuing to Ariara.

You will then spend three nights at Ariara Private Island, enjoying the privacy, natural beauty and relaxed luxury of one of Palawan's most secluded island retreats.

Your stay includes accommodation in an air-conditioned Luxury Room with a king-size bed, full-board dining, access to the island's facilities and complimentary non-motorized water activities.

After two complete days to enjoy Ariara at your own pace, the final day becomes another adventure.

Instead of returning directly to Coron, your boat journey takes you through the islands of Linapacan and Southern Coron, stopping at Araw Beach, Malcapuya Island and LXV's exclusive Pusod Private Lagoon before arriving in Coron Town in the late afternoon.

This journey has been designed for travelers who want more than a resort stay. It combines private-island luxury, remote island exploration, snorkeling, secluded beaches and some of Palawan's most spectacular scenery within one seamless experience.

Available exclusively to LXV guests, the journey can be booked by the room or arranged privately for families and groups.
