A rendozous for love and romance
!
Romance
What could be more astounding than coming face to face with a
clown fish underwater? What could be more breathtaking than watching
the orange sun take a dip into the sea at the end of the day?
What could be more captivating than watching out for shooting
stars from the balcony of your bay cottage while the waves are
splashing beneath your feet?
A perfect family getaway
Family
Want to give your children a gift they will cherish for the rest
of their lives? Forget about getting them that state-of-the-art
home theater system or a flashy new car. Give them a gift that
won't gather dust, grow old, or lose its value over time.
Treat them to a Dos Palmas Arreceffi holiday. The memories that
come with this magical time with the family are free. And priceless.
Sea food
Food
Although fresh seafood from the waters of Palawan are easily the
most popular items on the buffet table, the kitchen staff, our
in-house Chef, is equally adept at whipping up other dishes to
suit both local and international tastes.
Our different dining venues are designed to make meals satisfying
to all the senses. Kara-e-nan restaurant, which can seat up to
200 people, is the main dining venue
But if you want to add even more spice to your meals, you could
have breakfast or lunch at one of our huts on stilts right in
the middle of the sea!
For al fresco dining, our special dinner buffet is served in a
different part of the resort every night.
Kara-e-nan’s bar, Ereneman, is an ideal hangout for wines
and spirits once the sun sets.
Board Meeting
Corporate

Dos Palmas Arreceffi. But if you really must mix business with
pleasure, we have everything you will need for conferences, meetings,
seminars, and other corporate activities.

An ecotourism destination
Nature
Have you ever gone swimming alongside a clown fish, paddled through
a mangrove forest, or watched a flock of egrets take off into
the sky?
These are everyday occurrences at Dos Palmas Arreceffi and we’d
like to keep it that way. That’s why we’ve spent millions
of pesos to ensure the harmonious coexistence of the Dos Palmas
Arreceffi staff and guests with the countless species of flora
and fauna that also make this special place their home
Little steps, big results
These are the other steps we undertake to preserve the environment.
Segregation, reuse, and recycling of all solid waste so that none
of it is incinerated or dumped into a landfill
Holding of regular coastal cleanup to get rid of trash and sea
creatures, such as the crown of thorns, which destroy corals
Prohibition of the gathering of shells and corals on the beaches
and reefs around the island
Protection of the 3-hectare mangrove forest in which many varieties
of fish breed and thrive
Preservation of sea grass which fish, dugongs, and other endangered
species feed on
Prohibition of the use of jet skis that disturb fish, damage corals,
and pollute the water with their fuel refuse
We've set up our own Sewerage Treatment Plant (STP) on the island
so that our operations won't hurt the environment. We also organize
regular clean-up operations and other evironmental projects around
Honda Bay, to ensure that the natural beauty of the environment
remains unspoiled. Part of our profits are always channeled back
to the environment so you can enjoy your stay in good conscience.
