In fact it is the only known private island in Palawan with clear title suitable for tourism
development, making it an ideal turnkey opportunity for a commercial resort development or simply for luxury, private non-commercial use. The island is uninhabited (except for resident security and maintenance personnel) and remains in a pristine state with no development work ever carried out on the property. The pre-development efforts under taken by Barefoot have secured flexible planning and building permissions for a medium sized resort development that will save a developer/operator two to three years (critical path timeline) of permit applications and the countless hours needed to progress through local regulatory and compliance processes.
The island benefits from being located in the Coron/Busuanga region of northern Palawan, which is classified as one of the Philippines’ three “Super Regions” for priority tourism development, funding and promotion as part of the government’s national tourism master plan. It is also noted for the many tourism attractions, world class diving, award-winning beaches and exceptional natural beauty. Busuanga is served by a new airport facility and comprehensive road upgrades, contributing to an increase in tourism arrivals of 392% in a 12-month period. Recently an unprecedented trend in private investment transpired including the development of the neighboring 5-star Mövenpick Huma Island Resort complete with over-water villas.
The current permits secured for the development of West Nalaut island may be amended to suit the development strategy of any future investor. In their current form an investor may develop a 100 stand-alone villa luxury resort development with amenities such as swimming pools, spa, shops, restaurants, bars, dive center, pier, water sports center and staff facilities.
