For island hopping and relaxed beach days.

Since you’re already here, we want to make sure you take advantage of Palawan’s stunning beaches and lagoons, they are truly a must-see! To enhance your experience, we highly recommend wearing comfortable yet stylish clothing. Explore with breathable fabrics like cotton or linen. Choose swimwear, such as a one-piece or bikini, along with a fashionable cover-up. Do not forget to bring a hat and sunglasses for those Instagram-worthy photos! Also, another reminder to pack a quick-dry towel, a waterproof bag to keep your essentials protected, and, of course, sunscreen, because we have to protect our skin!
Exploring the beautiful attractions such as the Puerto Princesa Underground River tour.

When we think of Palawan, one of the first attractions that comes to mind, alongside its beautiful beaches, is the Puerto Princesa Underground River. Who wouldn’t want to explore this UNESCO World Heritage Site, right? If you’re looking for an effortless way to visit, our tour team can help – just be sure to book your tour in advance.
The beauty of this attraction is truly mesmerizing but visiting it can also be quite an adventure. It’s important to wear comfortable and lightweight clothing! Choose clothes that are quick-drying or absorbent. As the cave can be a bit chilly, a light jacket will be useful, too. Make sure to wear well-made sandals or sneakers, as some paths may be slippery. Don’t forget to bring bug repellent!
Maximizing the best resort in Puerto Princesa.

If you choose to just stay at your accommodation, make sure to book Astoria Palawan. Our paradise offers a relaxing, homey, and luxurious environment. It will make you feel like you are at home while enjoying the island life. With this, a chic yet laid-back outfit is sure to be a hit! We are thinking of a flowy dress and stylish sandals, which will look stunning for girls. A crisp polo shirt and shorts for guys will look super cool!
