A slice of paradise. Visited for the Thrive and Revive experience and was not disappointed. I've never been so chilled out in my life. From the moment of a arrival the welcome was very warm. Fresh coconut water handed to me. The camp was explained to me, and everything that was included. The Puno hut was one of the most unusual places I've ever stayed. Stunningly created from Bamboo and bees wax. With an incredibly comfortable bed and views out over the bay. The food was incredible, always found myself ordering more outside of my included options because it was so good. As well as the fruit juices and shakes. Yoga with Caro was amazing. The yoga workshop again a work of art. In the jungle surrounded by trees and the sounds of nature. It's the perfect destination to switch off and dryft.
We ended our month-long PH trip here, and it was the best decision we could have made. They upgraded us to a hive, which was a wonderful surprise! The place is incredibly serene, and the food is delicious—ideal for a much-needed detox and unplugging. We wish we could have stayed a bit longer but will definitely be back 💖
The next time I visit El Nido, Palawan, it will be to head straight to Dryft Camp. It is suited perfectly for nature lovers like myself, who love a bit of pampering. Let's start with the powder white beach, where you can snorkel, SUP, swim, or simply laze in the hammock. The thoughtfully-designed huts and tents are so unique and very cosy. If you care about sustainability like I do, Chris and Faith, the owners, ensured that they use locally-sourced materials as much as possible. The quality of the food is also top-notch - and indeed true to what other reviews said. Very very yummy - shout out to Chefs Jason and James-- I have put on 1 kilo from my one week of stay there. I also love that the owners established another company called Dryft Fish where they addressed problematic issues in the supply chain faced by local fishermen -- so you can be assured that the fish you eat at Dryft Camp are locally sourced and helps the community. At the back of the accommodation area is a really beautiful yoga shala. I was fortunate that instructor Deb is there who is both a wonderful yoga and HIIT instructor. Between writing on my laptop, swimming, and snorkeling, I could also take yoga and HIIT classes. Wonderful massages underneath the shala given by trained community residents, were also available. So time went by so fast, I lost track and changed my plans to leave more than once. I cannot wait to come back!
Highlight of our trip to Philippines! Outstanding hospitality and great customer services. Food was also spectacular and in general you just feel like in a movie! Definitely recommend!
If you want to relax and shut off civilization this is the place. Rooms were very clean and organized. Of course there no A/C but you habe to fans. They provide you with clean towels and bed sheets. Food was excellent, portions were big and filling. We stayed couple days and it was enough for us. If you’re planning to stay longer I would recommend to take the bigger House. Do not book any tents, since it’s really hot inside.
