Pure Shores Villa

Overview

Pure Shores Villa is a cliff-top accommodation and leisure facility in Basdio, Guindulman, on Bohol’s southeastern coast. Family rooms sit along the cliff edge with sea views, and the grounds add an infinity pool, garden, restaurant, and bar.

The BPTO lists it under Sports and Recreational Facilities, a category that in practice covers both overnight guests and day visitors here.

Land Already in Local Hands

Pure Shores Villa is one of a small number of family-run tourism ventures that have emerged along Guindulman’s coast in recent years, alongside Landthai Hills inland in Barangay Lombog. Both represent the same pattern: Bohol residents converting land they already owned — here, a stretch of Basdio clifftop — into a lodging or day-visit business rather than waiting on outside investment. Building on an exposed cliff edge over open sea is a deliberate choice that trades straightforward construction for the infinity-pool sightline that is the property’s main selling point; the DOT accreditation on file (No. DOT-RO7-MAB-00688-2021) confirms it operates as a formally registered enterprise rather than an informal rental.

That family-scale model has not displaced Guindulman’s underlying economy. Copra buyers still move through the barangays on schedule and the morning catch still gets sold fresh or dried at the market regardless of how many villas open along the coast.

Location

Barangay Basdio, Guindulman, Bohol. The property sits on cliffs overlooking the sea along the southeastern coast of the island. The adjacent Basdio Marine Sanctuary is within the same barangay.

Getting There

From Tagbilaran City, travel southeast along the coastal highway through Jagna toward Guindulman, approximately 60–70 km. Whether jeepney or habal-habal service reaches the property from Guindulman town centre is not confirmed — arranging private transport or checking with the villa directly is the safer approach.

What to Expect

A private cliffside setting with sea views. The infinity pool is the primary draw for day visitors. The property’s private cooks handle meals for villa guests rather than running a walk-in restaurant — fresh catch bought locally from Guindulman’s fishing community is the likely basis for much of that kitchen’s seafood, in keeping with how coastal properties in this part of Bohol typically source their menus. The property markets private access to the neighboring Basdio Marine Sanctuary, suiting guests combining a villa stay with snorkelling or diving.

Marine Sanctuary Access, With Conditions

Basdio Marine Sanctuary is an 18.4-hectare fishing ground barangay councils set aside for coastal resource management, not a private amenity — the villa’s “private access” framing means proximity and arranged transport rather than exclusive rights over it. Guests snorkelling or diving there are using a community-managed protected area, and the same rules that apply to any visitor — no touching coral, no removing marine life, no anchoring on the reef — apply regardless of which property arranged the trip.

Notes

• Basdio Marine Sanctuary is nearby and offers additional marine activity options; the villa itself advertises “private marine sanctuary access” to Basdio for guests
• Guindulman Bay Area is also in the same municipality
• Whether day-use entry is available for non-guests isn’t confirmed; the property markets itself as a whole-villa rental rather than a day-use resort, so confirm directly before planning a day visit.
• The map coordinates listed for this page may not precisely mark the villa’s location on Guindulman’s southeastern coast; cross-check with the property directly, or via its booking platform, before relying on them for navigation.
