Here at The Island Buenavista, we give a new dimension to the words ‘privacy’ and ‘exclusivity’. When we say that the island is private and exclusive, we mean you own the island for the period that you booked. There’s nobody else on the Island except you and the Buenavista staff.
We have the logistics taken care of, so you don’t have to worry about cooking or fixing the bed. Sumptuous meals are served at the dining lounge at your desired schedule. Our courteous Island staff will be happy to cater to your needs and requests.
No stress. Think of nothing except how to spend your time relaxing on The Island Buenavista. The Island Buenavista is an exclusive island resort in Samal, Davao, Philippines, thriving with lush tropical vegetation and numerous palm trees.
A white sandy beach, as well as crystal clear waters of the Davao Gulf, envelops this four-hectare paradise. Several meters from the beach, you will find beautiful coral reefs and abundant marine life-making Buenavista a remarkable diving destination as well.
You can enjoy the whole island and you get to choose whom to enjoy it with, because it is yours exclusively. There’s just you and our courteous staff, who are at your beck and call to give you personalized service.
All you have to do is relax, enjoy, do anything (or nothing at all) in the comfort of your private island getaway.
An Exclusive Escape
Welcome to THE ISLAND BUENAVISTA! An idyllic 4-hectare paradise you can call your very own.
A private getaway, The Island Buenavista is surrounded by sparkling blue waters teaming with colourful sea life and exotic coral reefs. Above the waves, the island is ringed by stretches of fine white cottony sand that reflect the brilliant tropical sun.
Laze the hours away under coconut trees swaying to the gentle sea breeze and meet glorious sunrises and pastel sunsets or sit back and enjoy a cocktail while gazing up to a velvet canopy of brilliant stars and silvery moon.
Environment
The Island Buenavista is an eco-friendly island.
We are the proud home of a Hawksbill turtle reservoir. The area around the island has been declared a marine protected area by the city government of Samal and the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR). Because we want to maintain the pristine state of our shoreline and preserve the habitat of our beautiful endemic marine species, we do not allow the use of personal watercraft (like jet skis) along our shores.
Being a small island, we take waste management very seriously. We make use of compost pits on the island. However, you could help us considerably by not bringing too much potential rubbish in the first place, and if possible, taking with you the materials you have brought into the Island.
The Island does not have a flowing water source, as there are no water pipes connecting us to the Island Garden City of Samal or Davao City. This means that we have to import our water from the neighboring island of Samal by ferryboat. Such is the fresh water supply for the bathhouses and the swimming pool that we replenish every so often. Hence, every drop of water counts. Laundry is done in Samal, so please think of the logistics (not to mention additional detergent, energy and water) involved every time you ask for, and use, a new towel.
