KokosNuss is a small Resort in the town of
Coron on the tropical Island of Busuanga, Province of Palawan,
in the Republic of the Philippines. KokosNuss is the only resort
facility in Coron Town. If you are looking for an "action
holiday" this is it. If you are looking for such things
as the best wreck diving in the Philippines, sea safaris, snorkeling
and island hopping, Coron is the place for you, but don´t
expect mass-tourism or five stars hotels.
We are proud to live at the beautiful "end
of the world".In 1991, Rudolf Weih, a German national from
Grosskrotzenburg am Main, decided to end his career as a high
paid Dipl. Engineer at the research & development sector
of Honeywell Company. After a 8 month journey through the Palawan
Archipelago he finally decided to settle down in Coron Town
on Busuanga Island, and start a small tourist business.
At this time, Coron was still a typical Philippine
fishermen's town. There wasn´t any tourism development
so far, but he saw a big potential for it. In 1992 he opened
his KokosNuss Garden Resort and Restaurant with a small eatery
and four cottages. In the past years tourism in Coron grew and
KokosNuss Resort expanded in size and quality.Today, KokosNuss
Resort consists of 24 individual cottages and bungalows, a large
tropical garden with garden chairs and hammocks, and a delightful
garden restaurant where you can enjoy fresh seafood and homemade
specials in Asian and European style.
We are located just before the local hospital
on the way into town. The 950 meter separation between "downtown"
Coron and KokosNuss means a QUIET, PEACEFUL and RESTFUL environment
for your stay in Coron. Your neighbors at KokosNuss will be
the trees and shrubs in the garden
KokosNuss Resort has a delightful restaurant
and 24 "Nipa hut" Cottages and Bungalows constructed
out of local materials in the traditional Philippine native
style that is still found in many parts of Palawan.Each cottage
is spacious, airy and bright. All of our rooms are amply furnished
with soft, comfortable beds, clean linens and pillows, and clean
bathrooms.
A "nipa hut" is, as the name suggests,
a very unsophisticated hut, made of bamboo. It sounds primitive,
which you cannot deny, and also sounds very uncomfortable...
WRONG! It is a well designed piece of local architecture which
will keep you cool and dry. It also adds to the benefit of being
totally natural, a little bit rustic, and to the pleasure and
the adventure for visiting a remote island. kosnuss offers Scuba
diving, Island Hoping, Coron Island Tour, Horse backriding,
Hot Spring, Nature Walk, Calauit Wildlife Safari and Motorbike
rentals.
