"Banwa," a term coming from ancient local tribal peoples, means "community", or "people of this place."

​

We believe it is the people that make the difference.  

​

Whilst many of our team have lived and worked in hospitality, the great majority are from Palawan which brings an automatic dedication to hospitality and, a world class, yet discreet level of service.

​

Under the guidance of our hugely experienced Island Manager, Janet Oquendo, our "Team Banwa" not only ensure a wonderful experience for all our guests, but ensure the island plays a vital part in the local community and protection of this biodiverse landscape.
