Paradiso

Palawan is such a beautiful destination where one's experience becomes a lifetime memory. A natural haven where one forgets the city and is embraced by the natural wonders truly there aren't even enough words to describe it.  A panoramic landscape of vast picture perfect visuals that are a feast for the eyes, mind and even the spirit.  One place that everyone should definitely go to is Miniloc in El Nido where you become one with nature and everything is just completely above and beyond beautiful.  Breathtaking becomes an understatement as one goes through the glorious journey with nature at its finest. Time is at a stand still as you become one with nature, the minutes and hours passby so fast one ends up wanting for more.  The purest and most natural of energies burst and thrive overflowingly in wonderful profusion.  El Nido is the destination that's truly and fittingly world-class in every sense from the accomodations, entertainment, gastronomic adventure and more importantly the five-star service.From the outstanding sunrise and sunsets, swimming with jacks and thousands of fish, fun filled island hopping, snorkling, kayaking in the lagoons, and the special island dinner set up, thanks to Miniloc resort manager Noel Barrameda, our stay goes beyond unforgettable. Serenity and purity is in abundance in this enriching place that's food for the soul.  Definitely a once in a lifetime dream escape everyone should experience. Palawan is paradise that tops the list of experiences to remember for a lifetime.  The perfect year ender, thank you!!!
