Travel to the resort is done via airplane to either Kalibo or Caticlan. Flight time is about 45 mins (from Manila). From Kalibo, a 90-minute road trip needs to be taken which will take you to the shores of Caticlan. Once there, a 5 minute ride on the resort’s private boat takes you to the rear of the island, where you will be picked up in a private car to take you to Henann Palm Beach Resort.
