ACCOMMODATION

Amanpulo offers 40 casitas built in traditional Philippine style known as bahay kubo: a centuries old South-east Asian rural archetype where family life was played out beneath steep pitched roofs on timber frames.

Five Casitas are Hillside and these offer magnificent sea views.  Four Treetop Casitas embrace nature and twenty-nine Casitas are set on the beach with private overgrown paths leading down to the soft white sand. All are nestled discreetly among the tropical foliage and enjoy their own buggy for unlimited access and enjoyment of the island. The interiors are warm and subtle with smooth shades of caramel and bamboo. Each casita is furnished with a king-size bed. The bathrooms are spacious and attractive with raised Cebu marble bathtubs and twin vanities. A soft honey brown wooden floor is laid throughout with island appropriate comforts from daybeds to rattan furniture and attractive regional artwork.

Each casita enjoys a sprawling wooden sun deck with inviting loungers and dappled shade from vibrant bougainvillea and two deluxe Hillside Casitas have an unrivalled sweeping vista of the Sulu Sea and neighbouring islands.
All casitas come with a flat-screen satellite television, DVD/CD player and iPod dock, all connnected to a surround-sound system, a coffeemaker with complimentary coffee and tea, as well as a safe. Hats, slippers and beach bags are available in the casitas for guests' use on the island and as souvenirs when they go home.

The 21st century has been skilfully tucked beneath its alluring island exterior so that one’s perceptions of an enchanting remote archipelagic island can be effortlessly played out in uncompromised style.

Amanpulo's 29 Beach Casitas each have private paths that lead through a tangle of bush directly onto the white-sand beach. The beach is an uninterrupted wide stretch of fine sand with views over the neighbouring islands.
