Robb Report, the lifestyle magazine for the ultra affluent, and the most definitive authority on anything luxurious, has just named—again—the extremely private Banwa Private Island as one of the world’s top hotels. For the second consecutive year, Banwa is included in the magazine’s prestigious “Greatest 50 Luxury Hotels on Earth,” an honor given to it by Robb Report’s 22 “travel masters.” Nestled within the pristine marine sanctuary of northeastern Palawan, Banwa Private Island offers an intimate all-villa retreat where guests can immerse themselves in unparalleled tranquility and a profound connection with nature.
If you’re wondering how much it is to experience this paradise, rate starts at $3,850 for two during peak season for the NorthOne Villa, which is considered a steal, considering you can easily cough up $5,250 per night on the Principal Villa for two. Want the entire six-hectare island to yourself? Exclusive island charter starts from $23,670 plus taxes per night, from 10 to 36 guests and includes all meals, non-alcoholic beverages, daily massage treatments, sports activities, swim and dive activities and local trips to sample the Palawan hospitality and culture. Coming with family? If you’re 4, expect to pay $6,150 for a two-bedroom villa for four, and up to $12,150 for up to eight.
This doesn’t include the 22.5 percent VAT, local tax, and service charge. It does include all of your meals, a daily massage, and some water activities.
