There is no lobby. There is a covered pavilion at the top of the path with somewhere to sit while somebody carries your bag.
Rattan sofas and chairs on cast stone pavers, each slab pressed with a leaf, under a bamboo ceiling with festoon strung across the beam. A timber console holds the towels, the welcome drinks and the keys, and the vehicle turns around on the gravel behind it.
Check-in is 2:00pm and check-out 12:00pm, and a ₱1,000 cash damage deposit is taken here and refunded when you leave. Transfers arranged through the resort are met at the port, at Lio, or at Puerto Princesa for the long run north.
