Palawan, voted World’s Best Island in 2020 by Travel + Leisure magazine, awaits visitors once more as it reopens its doors to tourism. Now under a modified general community quarantine (MGCQ), and with the support of the Department of Tourism and the municipal government, luxury chain El Nido Resorts is the first to receive the DOT Certificate of Authority to Operate in the town after complying with the guidelines to accept leisure guests at a 50% capacity. Under the “travel bubble” setup, guests will have to undergo RT-PCR testing 72 hours prior to their departure and fill out health and travel declaration forms upon reservation.
