The upscale Club Paradise Palawan is the only outpost on Dimkaya Island, a slice of paradise that's teeming with wildlife. It's a nature lovers' dream, from the beach to hiking to world-class diving and snorkeling. The 55 rooms are modern and spacious, with tropical flair, and some have furnished porches with hammocks. Fresh caught seafood is served at the beachside restaurant, and the outdoor pool is a lovely place to relax. Land activities include tennis, hiking, and biking. For a less expensive stay on the Palawan mainland, El Rio y Mar Resort is close by, though it's not quite as stunning or secluded.
