Great beach front with swimmable beach quite and is like having your own private beach. We loved the fresh cooked food and the drinks at the resort restaurant. Entree cost just 300 Pesos and fresh large coconut at 80 pesos (great value). The staff are very helpful. All rooms are facing the ocean and are few steps from the beach.

Best swimmable beach front resort. We will go back again next year

Wow! What an amazing stay, I booked one night here to start my trip and ended up staying an additional night because of how truly beautiful and tranquil it was. The beach is breathtaking and has a very private feel. The staff were all very friendly and attentive to my needs. The grounds are kept groomed and clean. The fact it's off grid makes it even more fun because it's so simple and easy to just lay back and relax. The owners were out of town but that didn't change how perfectly things were managed...Bart did a great job, Kevin was super enjoyable to talk to and the kitchen girls did great, and were fun to watch as they joked and giggled as the worked. the food was all super yummy. To sum it up, everything was perfect for me! It may not be for everyone since some people need there electronics and air conditioning. But if you want beauty and off the beaten path you won't be disappointed. I'll be back for sure : )

Piece of paradise!

The only resort in Duli Beach and one of the best resorts in EL Nido to recharge your energy. Sleep and be awakened by the sounds of the waves which are therapeutic. Had surfing lesson at a reasonable fee. Housekeeping was kept daily, ensuring a tidy place.

Surfing haven in EL Nido

This is one of my highlights from a trip to the Phillipines. Well worth the drive if you want an escape to a little bit of paradise. Beautifully designed, clean comfortable rooms. Kind, friendly staff, yummy food. Lazy days filled with swims, books, hammocks, games, sunsets all beside the calming sound of the waves. If i ever get the chance would not think twice about going back here.

A little bit of Paradise

The highlight of our Phillipines holiday.  This gem is such beautiful place, peaceful and serene, the water is crystal blue and the staff and owners very friendly.  Thank you Elma & Max for a wonderful stay, we hope to return again one day.

Paradise in the Phillipines

Max and Alma's Duli Beach Resort is currently the only lodging on the beach.  It is in a beautiful setting, nestled next to the rocks on the south side of the beach.  The beach is large, clean, and quiet but the water can be rough (compared with other beaches in the Philippines--not compared to New Jersey!)  Duli Beach is a surfer's paradise with a few surfing schools nearby, but it is a bit difficult to get there. 

The cabins are large and close to the beach.  So close, in fact, that the roar of the waves at night can seem deafening at first.  We had a king size bed that was comfortable and clean.   The cabins are attractive and designed perfectly for the location.  Each cabin has its own bathrooms along with a front porch facing the sea. There is no AC but it is not needed as there is a huge screen that makes up the front wall of the cabin, allowing for a cool sea breeze.  Privacy is not an issue as they have a full curtain you can close.  Wi-Fi is extremely spotty, and we only had it certain times of the day.  

Some other things points to mention:
-The massages were fantastic.  The woman who they have is strong and the setting relaxing.
-Max and Alma are wonderful hosts and have a lovely family.  The staff is friendly and hardworking and keep the entire resort spotless from top to bottom.
-There is a trail behind the resort that goes up to a viewpoint--it is short but worth doing.
-The menu was small but can change quickly.  We were there when the bartender came in holding a fish that was just caught.  Max looked at me and said, "Would you like fish for supper tonight?"  It was fantastic!
-They have a turtle rescue onsite, and we were there to see baby turtles released into the sea 3 out of the 4 nights we stayed there.  
-Max and Alma arranged for our transportation back to the airport.  There are various options from private van to tricycle depending on your budget.

If you plan on taking a shared van, make sure that the driver does not drop you off at the intersection of the beach road and the main road--that is still 3.2 kilometers from Duli Beach.  Ask him to take you a couple of kilometers down the beach road till the road starts to go up the big hill.  The last kilometer or so of that beach road is really bad and most drivers will not want to do it.

Quiet Except for the Roar of the Surf

A lovely resort with lovely owners. The nice family who runs the place take really good care of you. Its the only resort at the beach. The food is excellent, the place are very clean and the staff is nice and always give you a smile. 

It is a surfing spot so if you want to give it a try, you can have a lesson. 

There are two more restaurants nearby but we think the resort had definitely the best food. 

There is a few dogs and some chickens at the resort. Do not worry! They are sweet and friendly and do not make any trouble. We loved it. 
The resort do work for turtle rescue and we were so lucky to see that they was leaving the nest and go out in the osean🤩

Thank you for letting us stay!!!

Clean beach and villas, friendly and caring owners and staff

Wonderful place off the beaten path that is well worth the venture. You won’t find anything close to this in the main part of El Nido. As others have said, don’t expect luxurious amenities. But do expect to be able to bask in the purest of nature, far away from the bustling sounds of tourism. An eco-friendly establishment that encompasses all the values we come to expect in preserving Mother Earth for future generations. Here, your doorstep is the beach and the entire beach is your front garden.

Well worth the trip off the beaten path…

Staying here was like visiting an old friend’s beach home.

Duli Beach Resort is a beautiful, impeccably maintained property at one of the most secluded and untouched places in the Philippines. 

It was a wonderful place to unplug, quite literally! You won’t find the most upscale of amenities and luxuries here. But if you’re looking for a clean, safe space to stick your toes in the sand and world-class hospitality, look no further.

The wi-fi is wonderfully spotty, the evenings are adorned with stars and the sweet chirps of birds and insects. You’ll never be short of warm conversation, home cooked meals, and endless views.

The small, clean,  beach bungalows are a stone’s throw away from pristine waters and white sand. Close by are lovely reefs and a shallow, safe place for the kiddos to play in the water. Paddle boarding and surfing are available. Don’t forget your bug spray! 

If you’re lucky you’ll get a taste of Elma’s home baked Dutch treats, a bonfire, or a lovely rainstorm. You might find an old book or game of scrabble at the restaurant. Their young kids are charming, as are their pet chickens and friendly beach dogs.

We can’t wait to come back next year.

A Hidden Gem

If you want, serenity, natural beauty, an escape from technology and fast pace, then Duli Beach Resort is for you! Refreshing sea breezes, stunning views, surf, and beach. Time your visit to see turtles hatch! Owners, Max and Elma, care about the environment, their staff, and your experience. Their hearts are big and their welcome warm.
Carefully designed to be sustainable and with a small footprint, DBR is all about low key and low fuss. Switch off from stress and feel a part of nature and the DBR family. 
We came away feeling inspired, reinvigorated, and valued. This was a piece of paradise for us. We will definitely be back! 
Thank you to all the DBR team for making our stay so memorable and enjoyable.
