Forget the maldives, this is where the truly white sand beach is.
Perhaps more than most Aman resorts, Amanpulo provides a wealth of physical activities, from diving and snorkeling along the reef to windsurfing, fishing, or exploring the island by bicycle.
Guide Michelin, October 2025Access here is very James Bond-style: private planes whisk you to the resort, and villas are centered around swimming pools but you'll never consciously realize when the indoor ends and the outdoors begin. The trick here is to do nothing, but stylishly.

Hotels Own Introduction
An Island Apart
Blissfully set within the Cuyo Archipelago of northern Palawan, Amanpulo rests on the secluded shores of Pamalican Island. Fringed by powder-white beaches and pristine coral reefs, this private island sanctuary offers a rare return to nature, wrapped in supreme comfort, privacy and serenity.
Naturally Secluded Living
Amanpulo’s Casitas and Villas are thoughtfully positioned either along the beachfront or nestled within the forest canopy. Ancient trees and dense tropical foliage envelop each space in complete privacy, creating an idyllic setting for couples, families and friends. Here, days unfold to the rhythm of gentle waves and birdsong drifting through the treetops.
Life in the Open Air
Calm, crystal-clear seas invite days of aquatic adventure—from snorkelling, kayaking and scuba diving to kite surfing over turquoise waters. On land, explore sandy trails by bicycle, play tennis, observe island birdlife or take on the jungle obstacle course. As night falls, gaze skyward through the island’s astronomical refracting telescope and reconnect with the vastness above.
Island-Grown Flavours
Dining at Amanpulo celebrates the island’s natural bounty. Locally caught seafood and organic vegetables and herbs grown on the island form the foundation of menus spanning Filipino, Mediterranean and Japanese cuisines, served in breathtaking settings shaped by sea breezes and open skies.
Wellbeing in Harmony
At the island’s highest point, nestled into the northern hillside, the Aman Spa embodies balance and tranquillity. Surrounded by sweeping views and natural stillness, it offers a serene retreat where wellness feels effortless—an elevated sanctuary devoted to rest, renewal and quiet reflection.
