Palawan a weekend get away...

For those who want a back to nature experience whilst staying in luxury

Global Nomad is offering a luxury long weekend getaway to the tropical island and un-touched beauty of Palawan.

Complete with luxury accommodation in water cottages at a leading 5-star resort, gourmet cuisine and a private charter flight from Manila, with VIP 'fast track' through airports, the 'Palawan Ultimate Weekender' is priced at US$1,588 per person, based on double occupancy, until October 31.


Guests are greeted in VIP style at Manila and whisked aboard a private flight on a thrilling scenic ride over lush green islands dotted among crystal blue seas.


The acclaimed island haven is a wonderland of karst cliffs, turquoise waters, powdery white sand beaches and lush forests in a marine conservation area on the northwestern tip of Palawan.



For scuba divers and snorkellers, it is home to hundreds of species of coral, numerous rare birds, marine turtles and thousands of seashells, including the rare Philippine giant clam, the world’s largest bivalve.


From the quaint El Nido airport, transfers are arranged by luxury catamaran or a fully kitted outrigger, past soaring limestone cliffs and majestic islands, making it one of the most spectacular regions in Asia.


The final destination, El Nido Resorts' Lagen Island, is one of the Philippines' leading 5-star resorts, acclaimed by Conde Nast Traveler and Travel + Leisure for its commitment to responsible ecotourism.



Accommodation for three nights is in either water cottages on stilts or a beachfront cottage. Guests are greeted on arrival with an exclusive private dinner under the stars on a sandbar beach, served by a private chef and butler.



Global Nomad escapes are customised for those travellers seeking off-the-beaten-track experiences and with two idyllic days and a wide choice of outdoor activities and natural delights to explore, at any pace, anything is possible.



Guests can kayak and snorkel in the serene lagoons, or laze around private white sand beaches, or get more active and try scuba diving, windsurfing or rock climbing.



Meals including freshly-caught local seafood are at the resort’s buffet restaurant or two private beach club grills.
