On the next morning, we wake up early and had our breakfast in the same restaurant. The breakfast is in buffet style again with the same menu served on our first day of arrival. It was around 10 am when we leave the sunlight guest hotel. We rode the motorboat via the hotel port with a tight security check of our luggage. The boat captain told everyone to wear the life jacket for safety before boarding the speedboat.

We are fetched by the hotel’s mini-car. Resorts docking port looks so good as it gives a very good ambiance located in the middle of the ocean.
The hotel crew gave us a warm welcome by giving us a welcome drink and presented the necklaces made of shell and inorganic flower.
From the reception area, this Crabby table and chairs caught our attention. Whoever made this furniture surely did a lot of hardwork and effort to finish this craft. Our son love crab and he gave it a thumbs up too.

Our room for 2 days and 1 night.The terrace giving a tourist the magnificent view of the ocean and different kinds of fishes swimming just beneath the room. The rooms looks like floating in the middle of the ocean.
Inside the rooms can find complimentary slippers that you can bring upon check out from the resorts. The rattan bag is free to use but if you break it you need to pay it. The security box is present too that you can use your own personal password. White robes are also free to use.
The room has a minibar with different kinds of drinks in its tiny mini bottle. Hot pot, coffee maker and refrigerator are in the room too. Television is present but we did not try to use it.
The comfort room with shower area, complete with hygienic accessories.
The room is complete with lotion and shampoo. Hygienic kit such as comb, toothbrush, hairbrush, hairnet and sawing kit. The soap and shampoo has a good smell that I enjoy to use while we stay in the hotel.
After checking our room and changing our clothes we did not waste our time and head outside to check the surroundings of the resorts. We first review the poolside as our kids want to swim in the pool right away.

The resorts has a guide displayed everywhere to guide all the tourists of the location.

After checking around we decided to have our lunch. There were no tourist during that time so we are the only customer by that time. Guests may opt to do island while at the sunlight eco-tourism island. It was 12 NN when we arrived in the restaurant. Their available menu for lunch is alacarte.

Our lunch meals at Sunlight eco-tourism resorts.
We enjoyed the delicious food of the resort, but there are few from the meal that we think were salty. But overall, the dining experience is remarkable. 🙂 After lunch, we continue to roam the island. This time we rode the mini car of the hotel to continue touring the island.
The Sunlight Eco-tourism resorts has its own clinic and security car. Nurse is in the island too.
A diving store can find at the island as well with all their swimming equipment’s. Swim wears, sunblock, medicine, ladies accessories, bags, shoes and many more.

This is inside the small island that serve as a restaurant during night. But not in use during our stay there due to renovation. We saw kitchen utensils in the area and many more.
The view from the small island.
This is the room at sunlight resorts called honeymoon rooms with see-through floors that we think good for our kids so they can always watch and see the swimming fish just beneath the room. This room caught our attention. That’s why we chose this hotel, but unfortunately, the cost is way too high for us as it is priced at Php 30,000 for one night, so we end up booking the cluster hotel, which costs Php 9,000 per night.
Resting for a while after touring the sunlight eco-tourism island.
After touring the sunlight Eco-tourism island we stayed at the seaside and rested for a while. Our kids enjoyed playing the shells and digging the beach sand. We swam until the sunlight went down from the sky. Caught small fishes and let it go after a while. Played with the kids until we got tired. We just had to stop when its time to eat for dinner. We go back to our room first and then clean our selves and prepared for dinner. By 6:30 PM we are inside the restaurant. The foods are served in buffet which cost PHP 1000 per adult and PHP 500 for each kid. Our family decided to just go on with ala carte menu and paid the total cost of Php 1500. We felt that it is too much for us to avail of the buffet food that’s why we chose a la carte. We got the same satisfaction on the food we ordered that night and felt so full after our dinner. On the next day we woke up early as it was our last day in the island. Went to the restaurant right away for breakfast. The breakfast is included in the hotel for all the guests.

Our flight to Clark airport is scheduled by 2PM so the hotel booked our pick up and drop to Coron airport from the island at 12 NN. While waiting for our boat we stayed at the beach and played with our kids despite the heat from the sun.
This is the island port of Sunlight eco-tourism hotel and resorts. While waiting at the port for the other passenger, the kids feed the fishes just nearby the port. The speed boat arrived at 11:30 AM. It was another 30 minutes of boat travel. We stopped at Sunlight guest hotel for another van transfer.
Inside the van that brought us to the airport.Busuanga, Palawan Airport.
Eat our lunch at the nearby canteen of the airport. This is the only place where travellers can have lunch.
The canteen is offering a simple menu in Filipino cuisine.
Many passengers are coming inside the canteen.Airport waiting area. We are about to board at this moment.The view of Palawan just above the sky after take off.Arrived at Clark International Airport and pick up our luggages.The bus that take us at Manila.
Choosing PAL from Clark International Airport makes us save at least a few amounts of money rather than directly booking a flight from Manila airport. Passengers can choose from Manila NAIA International Airport flight under SKYJET airlines, Cebu Pacific Airlines (No flight during typhoon season or when the end of the year) or Philippine Airlines with a slightly higher fare.
This is the total air fare for our trip from COron to Clark International Airport under Philippines Airlines.
Overall, we enjoyed our Coron adventure. From riding the ship, to island hopping, foods, swimming, tour at the hotels and the unending play at the resorts makes all the tiring trip so worth it. The views of the Islands too is really breathtaking. Coron is actually the most beautiful island I’ve ever seen. So grateful and proud to call this country home. Icouldnt count how many times I was blown away by the beauty of Coron Palawan. I will surely miss the beaches here in the Philippines once we migrated to other country. Indeed another sweet memories we will always cherished.
