Head on up to The Sundown Beach Cabana, an all-exclusive beachfront stay in Daanbantayan.
The Sundown Beach Cabana is an exclusive beach house with its own isolated strip of sandy white beach. When staying in their beach, you’re guaranteed to have both safety and privacy from crowds and other beachgoers.

The Private Beach
Located in Bakhawan, Daanbantayan, the cabana flaunts an intimate stretch of white beach with aquamarine waters. Thanks to the cabana having its own beach, you get to stroll, sunbathe, or swim as long as you like without having anything or anyone getting in the way of your quality time!
The beach is cozy and the sand is fine and powdery while several coral rocks dot the property adding some character to the coast. At times of low tide, the water ebbs and reveals long, sandy, tidal flats. The slopes are gentle and don’t drop abruptly into the waters. The sand and the scenery come together as ingredients for a truly wonderful stroll in a beach spanning kilometers.
The Sundown Beach Cabana is a simple, yet beautiful bungalow. It’s fully equipped with all the necessities and comforts of home, but it comes with amazingly relaxing ambiance and a stunning panorama of the beach.
The house has an open kitchen with complete sets of pans and utensils for cooking and dining. You can opt to cook on the gas stove or on their free-standing charcoal grill. The open design lets the aroma and smoke out while inviting the sea breeze in.

Next of the kitchen you’ll find their veranda overlooking the beach and the Visayan Sea. The spacious veranda offers a roomy area where you can seek shelter from the sun while still admiring the beach. The view of the sea and the horizon is so mesmerizing, you can spend hours just staring from the comfort of the veranda!
You might be wondering where they got inspiration for their name. You won’t be wondering too long after you witness the brilliant display of the setting sun right in front of their veranda. Since the house is located on the northwestern edge of Daanbantayan, guests get to see an unobstructed sunset over the Visayan Sea.
At the end of the day, you can comfortably ease into their 3 bedrooms with air-conditioner units. Thanks to the proximity to the shore, the lapping of waves and the sound of the sea breeze will lull you to sleep.

Swimming Pool and Beach
Private access to the beach just downhill from the resort is just one of the best features in Cuestas Beach Resort. You can go for a walk or spend the lazy afternoon listening to the waves against the shore. Plus, a lovely colorful sunset flash in saturated orange and pink is just over the horizon. You can bring your guitar to sing with your colleagues or serenade your partner—assuming you know how to play guitar, of course—as well as pack the speaker for a bombastic music jam by the beach.

Moreover, an infinity pool featuring the same view without getting all salty is waiting for you to take a dip in the cold water. The best time to go swimming is during the afternoon because the water is warmer from the stored heat from the sun during the day. You can let your thoughts wander while looking at the setting sun—how relaxing! But you can also soak during the evening when the stars made their way all over the black sky. Swimming at night eliminates the need to protect yourself from those harmful UVA or UVB rays.
