Amanpulo is set on its own private island, Pamalican, part of the Quiniluban group of Cuyo Island in the Philippines. Guests arrive from Manila by chartered plane which lands directly on Pamalican.

Surrounded by while sand beaches, turquoise water and a coral reef three hundred metres from the shore, the resort provides a variety of watersports and beach activities.

From the Amanpulo swimming pool, guests enjoy views of the surrounding islands.

Forty casitas are set amongst the beachfront vegetation, perched on a hillside or set between the treetops. Designed as a modern version of the Filipino "bahay kubo" house, all casitas are of the same size. Casita facilities include a personal IDD telephone, CD player and satellite television. Each casita comes with its own personal cart.

The inside front cover features the view from one of the beachfront casitas.

Each casita features a bedroom with kingsize bed, two window divans, a spacious bathroom with a bathtub, separate shower and a spacious dressing area.

A separate room next to the lobby can be set up for small meetings. The lobby lounge overlooks the pool and is adjacent to the bar which serves cocktails and light refreshments.

Resort facilities include a library complete with boardgames, laser discs and CDs; boutique and art gallery featuring Filipino artifacts, jewellry and clothing; day and night all-weather tennis courts and picnic grove.

The surrounding waters provide a wide variety of marine life and dive sites. Watersports include snorkeling, scuba-diving (with P.A.D.I. certification available), windsurfing, sailing, fishing, boat trips and beachcombing.

In addition to watersports, the resort offers guided eco-walks, cycling, picnicing, and massage in the privacy of one's casita, or in one of the swimming pool's salas.

Amanpulo or "peacful island" was created for travellers seeking the idyllic beauty of a tropical island.
