The Two Seasons Coron Bayside Hotel and the Two Seasons Island Resort & Spa offer the perfect combination of a city and tropical island getaway and provide the best place to stay in Coron if you are looking for the best Coron luxury resorts.
The Two Seasons Bayside Hotel is one of the brand-new Coron Luxury Hotels in the Philippines.

The Two Seasons Island Resort is a total paradise; you will feel at home from the first moment you arrive.
I stayed at both these Coron Palawan Hotels and really liked the combination of a hotel in town to explore Coron’s attractions and the Island Resort, which offers ultimate relaxation.

The hotel is getting excellent reviews for its high-end facilities and fantastic island views and is shaping up to be one of the best hotels in Palawan.
Location
Two Seasons Bayside Hotel is located in the quiet town of Coron Town (not to be confused with Coron Island, which is located across town and only accessible by boat), in the southeast of the island of Busuanga, at the northern end of Palawan.
The Two Seasons Coron Town Hotel is right on the water and is the perfect location for visitors to explore the nearby island and Coron Town.
To reach the Two Seasons Coron Bayside Hotel location, take a 45-minute flight from Manila (there are 2-3 flights per day) to Busuanga Airport.
From here, it is a further 45 minutes by car to the hotel.
Directly outside the Coron Palawan accommodation are a few shops, and it only takes around 5 minutes to get to the center of Coron by tricycle.
Nearby places to visit include:
- Kayangan Lake;
- Twin Lagoon;
- Siete Pecados;
- Barracuda Lake;
- Shipwreck dive sites;
- Culion Island; and

These places are best visited via a tour arranged directly with the hotel.

You will love how the Two Seasons Resort Coron is a 100% self-sustaining island resort for the environmentally-conscious traveler.
To protect the local environment, the Two Seasons Palawan Resort has built the following facilities to maintain an eco-friendly operation while ensuring the comfort of their guests:

So not only is this one of the best resorts in Palawan, but it is also one of the most environmentally friendly.

I stayed in the Island Tip Bungalow. It is located on the island tip of the private Resort island and has 36 square meters.
The bungalow has one king-size bed, a huge LCD TV, a fridge, AC, and a fan. The bathroom is huge, with a great mirror and an amazing rainforest shower.
However, the highlight of the bungalow is the private jacuzzi on the verandah from where you can watch the sunset and the beach.
With this stunning room, the Two Seasons hotel would have to be the best resort in Palawan for a honeymoon.
The Food
The Two Season Island Resort & Spa provides 5-star resort dining in one of two of their restaurants – the Sulu Restaurant and the Bahura Bar.
The Sulu Restaurant
The Sulu Restaurant serves various dishes in a gorgeous setting with views of the sea and surrounding islands.
Breakfast is either served á la carte or as a buffet.
Guests can choose between Continental, American, Oriental, or Fitness breakfast. I ordered American Breakfast with bread, ham & cheese, muesli, fruits of the season, eggs, and coffee.
It was delicious and more than enough for two people. I could not finish it.
The 2 Seasons Hotel offers a wide range of dishes for lunch and dinner, including seafood, salads, burgers, pasta, pizza, steak, and other first-class dishes.
Pan-grilled salmon Steak served with saffron cream sauce, mashed potatoes, and buttered vegetables.
My favorite dish was Crocodile in Coconut Milk. It is stewed in fresh coconut cream, mildly spiced with chili pepper, and served with rice.
The Sulu Restaurant is open daily from 6 am to 10 pm.
The Bahura Bar
The Bahura Bar is situated in the center of the peninsular with fantastic views of the east and west beaches and is adjacent to the swimming pool.
It is the perfect location for cocktails at sunset and a range of other great bar snacks.
The Bahura Bar is open daily from 8 am to 10 pm.
The Narra Spa
The Two Seasons Island Resort‘s Narra Spa offers many body treatments.
You can choose different massages, facials, wraps, scrubs, and baths and use various facilities such as jacuzzis, saunas, bathtubs, vischi showers, and cooling pools.
I tried the Narra Spa Massage, which takes 1.30 hours. It is a full-body Swedish massage with medium pressure to relax aching muscles and stimulate circulation.
Before the massage started, I could choose my favorite oil and answer some questions about possible injuries and problem zones.
I really enjoyed the spa treatment. The therapist was very professional, and the atmosphere in the spa villa was relaxed.
After a visit to the Narra Spa, it is clear why this is one of the best Coron Palawan beach resorts.
Have you ever enjoyed a sauna with an amazing view of the sea?
Well, you can do it at 2 Seasons Resort Coron and relax in the jacuzzi afterward. Guests can rent the whole villa with a sauna and jacuzzi.
