Welcome to the Club

The History …

There are various stories about the start of the Coral Beach Club including one that it was once the unofficial headquarters of the ‘Philippines Flying Boat Club’ in the years immediately after WWII but the real Club was founded some time in the 1980’s by a German couple, Helga and Helmut Kilinger.

During the early years, the Club became popular with a group of expat businessmen mostly based in Manila who would come down at the weekends to play golf during the day and then relax in the Club in the evenings.

In 1993, a consortium of these guests banded together under the leadership of John Sinclair and bought the Club. At that time, it only had 6 rooms/cottages and a small Clubhouse. Over the course of the next 20 years, the three accommodation blocks were added, along with the pool & jacuzzi and the Clubhouse was extended to its current size.

All the new rooms were named after golf courses in the Philippines or abroad or famous golfers in tribute to the major part that the game played in the evolution of the Club.

… and Today

The Coral Beach Club now has 26 large & comfortable rooms, all maintained to a high standard, a gentle infinity swimming pool and a bar-restaurant & garden area that can easily accommodate up to 80 guests.

We offer a truly cosmopolitan & international range of eating options and an enviable selection of beers and more than 40 wines from around the world and a comprehensive selection of major spirits brands, all very reasonably priced.

The Coral Beach Club has maintained its strong ties with the Calatagan Golf Club (just 15 minutes drive away), and many guests stay here & play there whilst taking advantage of the preferential rates provided as one of the benefits of being a guest of the Coral Beach Club.

Mi casa, su casa …

…..this old Spanish saying ‘our house is your house’ neatly sums up the philosophy of the Coral Beach Club with the inclusion of the word Club in our name reflecting the ambience we work hard to create where everyone is welcome to come and enjoy their stay at the ‘Relaxation Resort’.

And the future ?

We are always looking for ways to improve our facilities and boost the enjoyment of our guests. We continue to add & experiment with our menu & drinks selection (try our weekly specials and cocktails of the week!) and we are always open to suggestions and constantly on the lookout for new appealing activities for our guests.

Our Green Commitment

As we commit to being as green as possible, we have now invested in 246 solar panels, these panels are installed and running here at the Coral Beach Club. Our efforts will greatly reduce our carbon footprint. Staying Sustainable is very important to us and we continue to commit time and resources on an on-going basis. Another continuing project that really excites us is our continuing commitment to protecting the environment and managing the resort on a fully sustainable basis. We were awarded our Environmental Compliance Certificate by the Department of Environment & Natural Resources in January 2017 and continue to add permits that meet and exceed DENR requirements.
