Further details about property
Gilligans Hideaway Guest House is situated Beachfront Port Barton, Palawan Your vacation at Gilligans Hideaway can be as relaxing or as busy as you like. We called it Gilligans coz originally, just like the television theme song, there were No Phones No Lights and No Motor Cars, not a single luxury, as primitive as can be, however things have progressed a little since then to Solar and wind powered lights and refrigeration, cell phone and limited internet coverage and satellite television, but still no motor cars.
The 3 bedroom home is a simple timber home with a basic beach house feel. Don’t worry about getting a little sand on the floors inside. It’s easy to clean. Gilligans has 2 new bathrooms and a new kitchen. There is a large lounge and dining area with unique hand crafted furniture. The facilities are clean and comfortable. You'll probably spend most of your time on the front veranda or our beachfront bar looking out to the stunning views of the pristine beach and the deep blue waters of the marine park area, or you can enjoy a few beers or cold drinks as you relax. Its very quiet here! Very few neighbours.
The rooms are quite airy and usually cool as we are beside the sea. The rooms have mosquito screens and mosquito nets are provided for each bed. You are welcome to do your own cooking or enjoy the basic Filipino home style cooking of our caretakers wife Estrellia. She will gladly prepare basic meals for you. For those who prefer western style food, Marilyn the cook at our other home will prepare meals to your liking. Our caretakers are happy to shop for you as Gilligans is away from the main stores.
A laundry service is also available. Please show the staff suitable consideration for their assistance. Bring your favourite CDs or MP3 players to play through our sound system. There's nothing like cold drinks, good music and beautiful weather to enhance your holiday. We have a small music library for you to enjoy.

The trip to Port Barton from Puerto Princesa is picturescue as it follows the east coast of Palawan and then weaves through the small villages that dot the countryside. You'll see a wide cross section of Filipno culture and life along the road. It's a 3 hour trip to Port Barton, and Gilligans Hideaway is a quick boat trip from our sister home, Villa Marguerita, at Port Barton.
From Puerto Princesa to Port Barton: The daily jeepney from Puerto Princessa to Port Barton leaves around 10 AM every day and costs only Php 240 per person whilst a good quality 4x4 airconditioned Shuttle Van can be organised for a direct trip from the airport to Port Barton for around Php 5000. We have an old 4X4 Pathfinder utility available for groups of 3 or 4 without aircon for Php 4000. The Port barton road has been repaired and is in very good condition now.
