Featured Testimonial of the Week

                   

              

"This is how a vacation to the beach should be like.  Really back to basics and back to nature.  You don't even need to bother with the air-conditioning and the other room amenities since the beach air is perfect.  My kids had the greatest time with the pawikans and other animals that they were able to survive a week without TV or computer games, which is very hard for them to live without.  They were even teary eyed when we left.  The staff was very accommodating and catered to our every needs.  We will definitely come back but hopefully we could bring our friends as well."

Earth Hour at Arena Island

An hour sacrifice is not bad at all when the whole world started to put off its lights last March 31, 8:30-9:30 in the evening in line with the celebration of the Earth Hour.

The friendly staff of Arena Island in participation of the Earth Hour

Arena Island, an eco-tourism destination which greatly advocates for environmental awareness, protection and conservation, participated in this global event. Spearheaded by Mr. Fuji Rodriguez, owner of the island, along with the staff, they turned off the lights in the island and lighted candles instead.

Guests holding candles in their casita's veranda.

The nice thing about it is that there were guests in the island who were enthusiastic to participate in this event too. This couple, Andy and Cynthia, joined the island in lighting candles. Arena Island prepared a candlelit dinner set-up in their casita, where they enjoyed a sumptuous dinner under the stars. According to Cynthia, "We all totally enjoyed our stay in your beautiful Arena Island.". This couple were with their family during their stay in the casitas, the premier accommodation in the island.

Arena Island Supports Earth Hour

Arena Island will support Earth Hour tomorrow at 8:30 in the evening here in Narra, Palawan. The resort will turn off its lights and will prepare candlelit dinner for its guests. Stargazing and bonfire activities will also be the highlights of the evening in observance of the Earth Hour.

You too can do your own little way by simply switching off your lights and gadgets at home for an hour. Join the world in this global action to fight against climate change and push for a healthier environment.
