A Private Island Spa
Named after the native Cuyunon term for “a place
to rest”, our very own Paranarian Island Spa
provides a sanctuary where guests can soothe their
minds and bodies with a selection of Filipino-
inspired treatments for rejuvenation.

Indulge in a unique massage experience: hilot, the
traditional Filipino massage, at a secluded location
beside the beach with a spectacular view of Honda
Bay. The spa also offers a wide range of beauty
and body treatments that use tropical fruit and
herbal preparations for total mind and body
relaxation

Island Hopping
So many islands, so little time… With the many islets in Honda Bay waiting to be
explored, an island-hopping trip is definitely a must-do. Each of the islands offers
distinct attractions:
- Bat Island, where thousands of bats leave their roost at sundown to search for
food on the mainland
- Pandan Island, a well-known dive site and picnic area
- Lu-Li Island, a diminutive sandbar named for its tendency to disappear (lubog)
and resurface (litaw) with the tides
- Snake Island, distinctive for its 4-kilometer sandbar that curves out to sea, and the
mangrove forests that cover the rest of the island
- Puting Buhangin, literally white sand, the island is a popular picnic spot for
guests of Dos Palmas
- Cowrie Island, a picturesque island with towering coconut palms and sheltering
talisay trees
- Starfish Island, a sandbar famed for the starfish that can be found around its
shallow waters
- Senorita Island, where visitors can get a glimpse of seaweed farming and fish cage
culture.
