-WHAT TO SEE IN DANJUGAN-
I did a tour that’s arranged. I believe it’s not even allowed to go around the island without a guide, but correct me if I am wrong!
It’s p1950 per head, including lunch and snacks, the boatride to the island and back to the shore. Note you’ll still need to go to the pick up point by tricycle. From Takatuka this was 300 pesos one way (so 600 back and forth). If you make friends and get into the tour together it will be cheaper ;)
Island is very small only 0.5 km wide and 1.5 kilometer long. It’s a sanctuary which means it’s not allowed to do fishing in most area’s around it, and there are a lot of places for birds to nest. With your tour you help preserving the island.
You’ll support the island with your visit (it’s a protected area)
You can fly the drone here though!
Staying overnight on the island is possible too. In basic (very basic) huts on one side or a bit more relaxed and comforting on the other. There is no wifi, and no signal on the more relaxed place, you’ll need to walk a bit for that.
-WHERE TO SLEEP IN DANJUGAN-
There are basically 2 options on the island itself. One more basic (very basic) and one more luxurious. They’re on opposite sides of the island. It depends on your liking really.
The more basic place is more windy in general, and does not have a beach. I liked the more luxurious option a bit better, because it’s more chilled, there’s a beach and it feels more homey! But again, it depends on your liking and budget.
► Just find all information on their website:

As for staying on the main land: I would highly recommend Takatuka Lodge! Love the place! Inspired on Pippi Longstocking’s tale, with a lot of weird rooms all over the place. Different themes like the cave room, superstar, rockadilly, a castle… you name it ;) It’s seriously the best hotel I’ve been in in the Philippines (and I have been to a lot I love ;) - It’s so funky and unique, the owners and staff are friendly and helpful, the food is great, they attract friendly guests, the beach is just there. AMAZING! Seriously. Go here. GO! What are you waiting for? ;)

-WHERE TO EAT IN SIPALAY-
Because I stayed on Sugar Beach, there’s not much options to get out for dinner. You can’t just leave and get back after dark I stayed at Takatuka mainly for food, and it’s good! Not cheap but a whole lot of variety, and great healthy stuff.

Living in the Philippines makes me not appreciate what surrounds me, now that I Live in the US you made me realize how beautiful my home country is. Maybe I was just looking so close and not looking it as a big picture. So thank you
I know what you mean :) Got the same here in the Netherlands. Actually after traveling I see and appreciate Amsterdam and the rest of NL a lot more - like seeing it all new again :)

Woow so amazing when I saw this vedio. Thank you maam let's be friend maam.
I wonder if your videos are meant to be shown on TV. Those shots of awesome sceneries are a sight to behold.
I love❤ your vlog😲
Thanx Jess :)
...i really love all ur chosen locations...really off the beaten path...try the mangoes in Guimaras...they're the best in the country...and probably the world...
:D
Awesome I'm glad I'm early! Hey by the way boracay is closed?
I think it is or is going to be... Not sure! I do not have a big connection to Boracay since I've never been there and feel more for off the beaten track places :)
Boracay will close temporarily for 6 months starting on April 26, 2018 for rehabilitation of the island!
yep couldnt agree more! Boracay is crowded! Brilliant decision.
Wowwww
I ❤ your videos.
Gaaf! wij vonden de Filipijnen ook zo gaaf. Alleen Danjugan island niet gedaan. jammer, misschien nog een keer terug :) ik ben abonnee, groetjes uit Sri Lanka
My home town 😍
Gretl + Island = pretty
Wow
I'm #327 viewer.. #87 liker.. #44 commenting.. thanks for exploring negros occidental that most tourists escaping that province.. if you come back try northern parts of the province lots of tourist spot also.. falls, mountains, white sand beaches, island hopping, ancestral houses and etc...
Cool :D Yeah, there is a lot to explore and I'd definitely want to see more :)
I do not understand why you don't yet have a you tube silver button. Your vlogs are amazing.
Thanx so much! I do not upload regularly enough for CZcams's algarhytm to love me ;) :)
I like your style of vlogging...
Thanx :D
Cuayan next Kabankalan ..try to visit Mag-Aso falls at Kabankalan City
again such a nice vlog!
Thanx :)
Travel Gretl you're always welcome!!
Amazing video Gretl,thanks a lot.a good trip to Guimaras island we had been there in 2014,it’s also called mango island.do take care god bless 👼🍀👼😍
:D
I can't say it any better than what has already been said in the comments section but your videos are sooo exquisite... Voortreffelijk!!! So different from all other travel vlogs I've watched and followed... How the heck do you find these places?!? 😀
Nice curly hair 😊
Bring me there..😁😁
What a beautiful place.. 😀😀
This is Amazing God's creation. Hope they can preserve the beauty of nature.. Unlike what's happen now in boracay. So sad.. They need to close for rehabilitation.
Yes, very sad! I heard about it. It's warning signs like that that make us realize we should really take care about the beautiful places we got...
Travel Gretl indeed it is! Lesson learn..
But I want to visit PB this year. 😁
Wish to visit danjugan and sipalay
Try exploring Mindanao. Search for asik asik falls and youll be blown away.
Thanx! Yeah, I hear Mindanao is very stunning :)
👍👍👍
👍👍
I really miss you your voice... 😊
