This nomad stay is a spacious 3-bedroom house in Paradise. Port Barton, Palawan. The house is a natural build, made from wood, Sawali and Amikan ( a type of local bamboo weaving), Filipino style, with plenty of balconies and shared ... spaces. The Overlook Port Barton overlooks the jungle, the Port Barton bay, and Mount Kapwas to the front and the pristine jungle and rice fields to the back. The loft room has its own office space and private balconies to the front and back. The first floor has a communal lounge and shared balconies to the front and back. The ground floor has a spacious shared kitchen, workspace, sitting area, and bathroom. Port Barton is easily accessible from both Puerto Princesa and El Nido airports, 3 hours by minivan from each. When you arrive in Port Barton our Filipino partner Alan can meet you at the bus station, and arrange motorbike hire, and or, a trike to The Overlook House. The house is a 5 walk up a hill from the dirt track off the main concrete road from the village. The Overlook house has Starlink WIFI, providing consistent strong connection in the house, across all floors, strongest on the front balcony area. There are many working spaces in the house, partnered with stunning views over nature. A great balance for online working and well-being. There are several small supermarkets 5 mins walk down the hill, ‘sari sari’s’ as they are known in The Philippines. They provide basic fruit and vegetables, canned and dry goods, soft drinks and alcohol, all very affordable. Refillable drinking water containers can easily be filled from the water station, our partner Alan can help with this. This is the best way to reduce single-use plastic waste in the village ?? We are lucky to be 5 mins walk from many lovely restaurants, both Filipino and international. We have a cold water washing machine at the house, and a cleaner who can offer laundry services for our guests. There are also laundry services in the village, again 5 mins walk down the hill towards the centre of the village.
