Your tropical island retreat
Pandan Island Resort is a private diving resort island located on the west side of Mindoro in the Philippines.
Accomodation
On Pandan Island you can choose between five different types of accommodation:
All bungalows are built in native materials, like coconut lumber, bamboo, sawali, cogon grass to let them blend easily into their tropical surroundings. Care has been taken to provide a simple yet comfortable atmosphere with a maximum of privacy for all who need to get away from hectic life.
Each house has its private gecko (lat. gecko gecko) that is believed to bring good luck to the house it inhabits.
The bungalows are built directly by the sea separated from the beach only by palm trees and / or bougainvillea bushes.

Restaurant
The restaurant serves a blend of Philippino and European cuisine. Lunch and dinner are buffet style and offer a variety of fresh fish and meat with vegetables, seasonal fruits and coffee or tea.
Tess and Joel, our chief cooks, combine local dishes and exotic ingredients with European recipes to offer you a varied dining experience. All meat and vegetables are bought daily on the local market in Sablayan. Fish comes often directly from the local fisherman on the way home from their fishing grounds. For your small appetite short orders like spaghettis, burgers, sandwiches , soups or salads are available up to 3pm.
Being under French management, there is always a selection of white and red wines available.
All guests who will stay overnight or more days, you are required to take at least 1 buffet daily.

The bar can easily be called the heart of Pandan Island.
Here you will have your welcome drink when you arrive, meet all the other guests of the island, hear the newest stories from Apo Reef, sip your cocktail at sunset or play a game of pool or darts.
