“Your own paradise!”
+I had the most amazing time here and am super grateful for being welcomed as part of the family like the way I was. I splurged on the family room and woke up in literal paradise with the most amazing and peaceful view, unreal. I ended up staying during the last festival night of the year and went out with the family. They look after you like their own. The rest of my stay was a much needed calm and serene time to recharge after months in SE Asia. Probably the most impactful stay I’ve had the whole time. 100% would recommend and a place I do intend on coming back to. Thank you guys!
−No complaints.

“Paradis is just the name. It’s so much more than that.”
+Without a doubt, this was the best place we stayed during our two weeks in the Philippines. A truly magical spot, far away from any tourist activity, where you immediately feel at home and naturally integrated into the local village of Bucana. The welcome from Mike and his family was simply incredible. The experiences he offers through his fishing boat are unforgettable, taking you snorkeling around untouched islands where you are often completely alone, making you feel like you’ve discovered a hidden paradise. On board, he also prepares amazing fresh meals such as grilled chicken and fish, served with fruit, all cooked on the spot. We even had a karaoke evening with him, which was absolutely hilarious, we had such a great time and shared a lot of laughs. The homemade dinners in the evening were also excellent, and he even offers laundry service if needed. Truly, everything is thought of to make you feel comfortable and well taken care of. Mike is always attentive, helpful, and genuinely kind. We shared some wonderful moments together.🍻 The location in Bucana is just extraordinary, falling asleep to the sound of the waves and waking up with your feet in the sand. We stayed as a fa
−What we didn’t like: absolutely nothing.

+8 Star Paradise is incredible! We had a wonderful cabin right on the beach. If you want to get away from the busyness of El Nido and be right on the beach, this is it. The owners go way above and beyond to make your stay special. The included breakfast is made fresh every morning. It's delicious! I would give this place 8 Stars for peace, tranquility, location and owner attentiveness. Thank you for a wonderful stay we will never forget it!

+Off the beaten path. Non traditional. Eco touristic. Culture touristic.

“Falling asleep to the sound of waves and waking up to a beautiful beach and hatching turtles.”
+Very nice staff, especially Mike, the owner. Took very good care of us and did small things we didn’t ask for all the time!
−A bit hot in the tents, but if you ask for a fan he will bring it for you. The rooms have it already included.

“Simplicity in the nature”
+I was sleeping in a hut. Located on the beach so you can hear waves 24/7 - AMAZING!! For me the hut was too basic. Just a mattress on the bamboo floor, fan, bulb and leaky mosquito net. Bathroom is very simple as well. Hosts are amazing. Very helpful and dedicated. You can have your laundry being done, you are served with simple breakfast. Couple of restaurants on the beach. Massage available around the corner.

“It’s a camping style vibe, clean rooms and toilet.”
+Very clean! Nice view and beach just at the doorstep. Breakfast was included which was very nice. Mike and his family were very helpful. A couple of restaurants/beach bars with good food, but the owner can prepare lunch/dinner upon request. You can get a tuk tuk to Duli Beach which was also nice.
−Low pressure in the shower. No toilet seat. Not regarding the property but the beach wasnt clean- a lot of trash, even pieces of broken glass. Trash in the sea :( . Poverty outside the beach. A bit hard to get to the property but Mike was very helpful and arranged tuk tuks and help from his friends so we got to our next destination safely.

+Wir hatten eine wunderschöne Zeit im 8Star Paradise und uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Das Gemeinschaftsbad ist stets sauber. Wir konnten unkompliziert vor Ort einen Roller mieten. Die Lage direkt am Strand ist fantastisch

“Accomodatie voor een heerlijke tijd direct aan het strand.”
+Wij hebben een heerlijke tijd hier gehad. Hele lieve eigenaren die heel goed voor je zorgen zodat je een heerlijke tijd hebt. Ontbijt en avondeten waren heerlijk. We hebben met Mike een boottocht gedaan om te gaan snorkelen en naar een ander mooi strand te gaan. Ondanks dat snorkelen voor ons als gezin erg spannend was en het varen bij 2 van ons evenwichtsproblemen veroorzaakte was het evengoed voor ons een hele mooie herinnering. Op de laatste avond verzorgde Mike nog een karaoke avond, superleuk!

“Ich komme sehr gerne wieder!”
+Direkt am Strand in einem ruhigen Fischerdorf gelegen. Sehr sympathisches Betreiberpaar.
−Die Treppe im Beachfront-Bungalow ist extrem steil. Nichts für Rentner 😉
