Dreams meet Reality: My Stay in San Vicente, Palawan

Have you ever walked into a place and thought, “This is exactly what I pictured for my dream”? That’s exactly what happened to me when I visited a small bed and breakfast resort tucked away in San Vicente, Palawan.

From the moment I saw its beautiful concrete and wood structure and charming tropical design, it felt like someone had pulled the blueprint straight out of my imagination.

The cozy, spacious room with big glass windows overlooking the pool, and the gorgeous bathroom with warm natural light, the landscaped garden and open restaurant also bar, everything felt like pure luxury — everything was exactly as I’d hoped my own beachfront accommodation could one day be.

As I walked around the property, I couldn’t help but admire how well thought-out every detail was. The lush garden pathways, the simple but elegant furniture, and the inviting swimming pool surrounded by tropical greenery all hit me in the face like a gentle reminder: this is what I want to build.

And the best part? My own lot in Panaon Island, Southern Leyte is right on the beach and even comes with its own vibrant house reef — a little extra magic that will make my future dream even more special.

That morning, as I enjoyed my breakfast and coffee by the pool, I whispered a quiet prayer that my dream will come true. Being there gave me so much inspiration and hope.

Here’s to one day creating my own beachfront retreat — a cozy, spacious sanctuary by the sea, where people can come to rest, dive, explore, and make own memories with guests turned friends.
