The Funny Lion Puerto Princesa

The Funny Lion Puerto Princesa turns a short city arrival into a bayside stay. Around 15 minutes from Puerto Princesa International Airport, the resort looks towards the Sulu Sea across a landscape of mangroves and coconut trees, giving guests a quieter side of Puerto Princesa without moving far from the city.

 

Days can move easily between the water and the resort. Guests can kayak towards the nearby sandbar, explore the mangroves by banana bike, cool off at the swimming pool or head out for the natural attractions of Palawan. Back at the property, dining ranges from all-day Asian and Continental dishes to French-Vietnamese flavours, poolside drinks and coffee.

 

WHY WE LIKE IT

For agents, the hotel gives Puerto Princesa itineraries an easy first or final stop without making the stay feel like an airport overnight. Its location keeps transfers straightforward, while the bayside setting and water-based activities give guests enough to do when they want a slower day between excursions around Palawan.
