FAQ

What is the ideal length of stay to fully enjoy the Lihim experience?

To truly unwind and experience the best of Lihim and El Nido, we recommend staying at least 3 to 5 nights. This allows enough time for spa treatments, private island-hopping tours, and moments of stillness within the resort. Longer stays (6+ nights) are ideal for those incorporating wellness, special celebrations, or multi-island adventures into their itinerary.

Can I request a fully private dining experience during my stay?

Lihim Resorts offers multiple private dining options tailored to your preferences. Whether it’s a candlelit dinner on a secluded beach, a breakfast setup on your villa terrace, or a multi-course tasting menu served poolside, LXV Lifestyle can coordinate everything in advance. Dietary restrictions and personalized menus can also be accommodated with notice.

Are bespoke celebrations (e.g. proposals, birthdays) available at Lihim?

Lihim Resorts, in partnership with LXV Lifestyle, specializes in bespoke occasion setups. Whether you’re planning a surprise engagement, a milestone birthday, or an anniversary dinner, your experience will be customized with floral styling, private dining, live music, or even drone photography upon request. Every detail is managed discreetly and tastefully to ensure it remains unforgettable.

Can LXV help plan experiences beyond the usual island tours?

LXV Lifestyle can arrange unique, upscale excursions such as helicopter tours over Bacuit Bay, private yacht cruises with onboard chefs, inland waterfall hikes, or even day trips to Puerto Princesa’s underground river. We work with vetted local partners to ensure every outing meets luxury standards and aligns with your personal interests and schedule.

Are there specific villas or amenities recommended for families with kids?

Families are best accommodated in the Two-Bedroom Premium Villas, which offer ample space, multiple beds, and privacy within the same unit. While the resort has a serene, adult-oriented ambiance, it can cater to families by arranging child-friendly meals, nanny services, and safe, engaging activities such as kayaking, shallow snorkeling, and nature walks. Advance notice is recommended for any special family requests.

Is Lihim Resorts pet-friendly?

Lihim welcomes pets—particularly small to medium-sized cats and dogs—under specific guidelines. Certain villas are better suited for pet stays, and advance notice is required. Pet owners are responsible for their companion’s behavior, and additional fees may apply. LXV can assist in coordinating pet-safe amenities such as beds, bowls, or treats.
