As you all know, one of my favorite destinations in the Philippines is Club Paradise Palawan. This beautiful little island in Coron holds so many happy memories for Carl and I. Initially, it was where we had our dream wedding back in 2011 and it has been our favorite family destination for us ever since. You can read my blog post here on why we feel it’s the best wedding destination in Coron.

We’ve returned to the island many times after because this little island can handle more than just weddings, it’s also the best destination for a Coron honeymoon as well as for family getaways. From its powder white sand beaches, crystal clear waters, comfortable amenities and friendly staff, Club Paradise Palawan is the perfect getaway for your post-wedding mini honeymoon or even just to relax with your entire family.

Here are pictures from our recent trip and some tips on how to make a trip to Club Paradise Palawan one of the best getaways you’ve ever had.

TIP 1: Book a Sunset Villa

All the accommodations in Club Paradise Palawan are extremely comfortable, but if you can, I highly recommend you book one of the sunset villas for your stay. These lovely little houses right by the beach are far enough from each other to still be private and comfortable enough to fit a family of four. These villas are so comfortable you’ll be hard-pressed to leave for any amount of time.

Tip 2: Take Advantage of Happy Hour

Club Paradise Palawan offers an assortment of drink promos during sunset happy hours that are definitely worth exploring. Have a daiquiri or an ice-cold beer as you watch the egg yolk like sun melt into the sea and the bats come out to play.

Tip 3: Make Reservations for a Boodle Fight

A Boodle Fight is a Philippine military custom where cadets gather around a smorgasbord of various meats, rice, and vegetables placed over banana leaves. You must eat all together with your hands. I highly recommend you try this tradition at Club Paradise Palawan. The adobo is to die for and the seafood is cooked all together in a delicious broth of spices. I begged for a bowl of the broth just so I could eat it with a clam shell. I seriously still dream about this boodle fight till today!

Tip 4: Check What Activities Are Available

The wonderful thing about Club Paradise Palawan is that each visit is never quite the same. There are always a number of activities that the staff prepare for you and your family to make your stay even more enjoyable. For instance, the last time we were there was Earth Hour, so after having dinner by candlelight, the kids were treated to an outdoor movie with unlimited popcorn. They often also have arts and crafts and little explorer sets for the kids. For couples, you can have a romantic dinner by the ocean away from everyone else.

Tip 5: Get to Know the Staff

The charm of Club Paradise Palawan comes a lot from the people who continue to work hard to keep her beautiful and make your experience magical. They love offering personal service and greet you like old friends when you revisit. They even remembered the names of friends of mine who stayed a few years before! As soon as they know your needs, they will be there for you.
