There are some real Characters here at times. We find getting out into the water on a boat is one of the most rewarding activities here, and the waters and islands are truly beautiful. Swimmings great to cool you off on hot days or try the shower we've attached to the coconut tree on the beach. How to get therePalawan is a one hour domestic flight from Manila airport or a pleasant overnight trip on the Super Ferry.

This may cost around Php 4,500 or around GBP 50. Approximate prices can be emailed however travel in the Philippines is relatively inexpensive. The Shuttle trip may take around 3 hours and the road close to Port Barton is renowned for being difficult to traverse, but the trip is worth while. Monkeys and native animals can be seen along the scenic route which travels north over Palawans beautiful mountains and beside its fantastic coastline.

Guestbook for " Villa Marguerita "" I am just writing to say thank you so much for the use of your villa, what an amazing place it is. We all thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and thought that Arnold and his family were lovely, they couldn't have been any kinder or more friendly. All your facilities really enabled John, Rich, Laura and Rachel, not to mention John and I, to have lots of fun and the tv wasn't turned on even once. Our trips out from there were quite adventures, especially the trip to El Nido with Wilson which I don't think we would like to repeat due to the rough sea!! Although it was all worth while when we saw the lagoons. Seeing turtles and dolphins, together with the tropical fish, not to mention the wild monkeys and snakes will be remembered for ever."
