MAMBAJAO, Camiguin — Tucked away in one of the Philippines’ most peaceful islands, Bintana sa Paraiso offers travelers a refreshing retreat from the noise and pace of everyday life. True to its name, which means “Window to Paradise,” the resort presents two distinct locations
in Camiguin one in Naasag by the sea and another in the hills of Binunsaran each offering a unique view of the island’s natural beauty.
The Naasag location sits near the coastline, where the calm waters of the sea stretch out toward the horizon. Here, guests are treated to wide ocean views, fresh sea breeze, and a relaxing atmosphere that highlights the beauty of Camiguin’s shoreline. Sunsets in this area are especially notable, painting the sky with warm colors reflected on the water.
Meanwhile, the Binunsaran area is set in a valley near Mt. Hibok-Hibok, surrounded by greenery, cool air, and a quiet environment. From this elevated location, visitors can enjoy sweeping views of the landscape, including the famous White Island, a small white sandbar known for its clear waters and striking scenery. The nearby Katibawasan Falls and Tuasan Falls are also just a short drive away, making the area accessible to popular natural attractions.
The resort is often described as having an “exquisite natural setting,” paired with comfortable accommodations and a peaceful atmosphere. It is designed for guests who value privacy, quiet moments, and a slower pace of travel. Instead of crowded spaces, the focus is on calm
surroundings, open views, and time to unwind.
Bintana sa Paraiso also provides amenities that support relaxation and comfort. Guests can enjoy Filipino dishes served on-site, along with access to a mini gym for light exercise or yoga, and a spa offering massages and facial treatments. These features add to the overall
experience, allowing visitors to balance rest with wellness during their stay.
Attention to service is a key part of the resort’s appeal. Staff members are known for being attentive and responsive, helping ensure that guests feel comfortable and well taken care of throughout their visit. This level of service contributes to a smooth and pleasant experience from arrival to departure.
Over time, Bintana sa Paraiso has received several recognitions. It has been nominated for the 11th Elite Business and Leadership Awards 2023 and World Class Brand 2023. It has also been acknowledged by Booking.com and Agoda through traveler review awards, as well as honors such as the Social Media Star Brand Awards and the Golden Globe Award for Business Excellence and Outstanding Filipino Achievers 2022. In 2025, the resort was also recognized with the Tripadvisor Travelers’ Choice Award, highlighting its consistently high ratings and
positive guest experiences.
Due to its growing popularity, accommodations at the resort are often fully booked. Travelers are encouraged to reserve in advance to secure a stay. Bookings and inquiries can be made through email at [email protected]
With its unique combination of Naasag’s coastal views and Binunsaran’s mountain setting, Bintana sa Paraiso stands as a destination that offers both sea and highland experiences making it one of Camiguin’s most sought-after places to relax, unwind, and appreciate nature.
