HomeBeyond IloiloGuimarasRoca Encantada One of Guimaras’ famous landmarks is the summer house of the Lopez Clan built atop a hill, also known as Roca Encantada or “Enchanted Rock”. The house was built in 1910 in honor of Dona Presentacion Hofilena Lopez. Suprisingly despite the modern exterior, the idyllic mansion is a “heritage house” as declared by the National Heritage Institute. The grand balconies of Roca Encantada offers a picturesque view of the beach front and Iloilo Strait with “La Islas de Siete Picados” not far from its coast.Roca Encantada is located in Buenavista town, Guimaras. From Parola, Iloilo City is a 15 minute ride to McArthur’s Wharf and from there one can arrange transportation through the Tourist Assistance Center in the wharf. From McArthur’s Wharf it is another 45 minute ride to Roca Encantada. For more information contact Benpres Holding Corporation (Nelly): (033)3280779.Don’t leave yet.
