Condo project offers ideal investment option in Palawan
Palawan, voted as the “Best Island in the World” by international travel magazines, is known as the Philippines’ last biodiversity frontier. It’s one enthralling haven, a pristine sanctuary that allows one to get a glimpse of nature’s beauty at its best.
Many investors are similarly smitten by the island as it offers vast opportunities for sustainable business ventures, while others simply dream of having a home here.
Sta. Lucia Land, Inc. (SLLI) can provide the opportunity as it offers not only a home in paradise, but also an investment option through its premium condominium development called The Crown Residences.
It is located in Puerto Princesa, within the six-hectare mixed-use luxury leisure development that is Harbour Springs, which was conceptualized and masterplanned by Carino Development and Management Corp. (CDMC).
According to CDMC president Noel Cariño, The Crown Residences is one of the highlights of Harbour Springs, which boasts of world-class amenities. It is also near some famous tourist hot spots, namely Honda Bay, Crocodile Farm, and Underground River.
Owning a property in Palawan, specifically at Harbour Springs and Crown Residences can make for a smart, practical investment — whether as a vacation getaway or as a residential home.
“Palawan right now is officially the showcase of Philippine tourism. Here, it’s all about the pristine environment and the diversity of experience. Palawan offers almost everything that individuals nowadays seek to experience. It has mountains and lush greenery. And there are beaches and islands to explore,” Cariño said.
Improvements in Palawan’s infrastructure had been more apparent with the upgrading of the Puerto Princesa International Airport and the newly inaugurated San Vicente Airport, which make the province and its destinations more accessible to

At Harbour Springs, one can invest in either the Premier Condotel Suites or the Penthouse Luxury Suites, which measure about 200 sqm a unit, have spacious bedrooms, and are equipped with amenities and facilities for a most relaxing stay.
Before the wet season reaches its peak, now is the best time for homeowners to waterproof their abodes. Begin by checking homes for leaks and cracks — and patch these up before further damage which requires costly repairs.
Leaks and moisture accumulation in the home can cause damage to walls, ceilings, and floors and weaken and rot ceilings. Flooring may also peel off and bathrooms and toilets can have ugly, icky-looking watermarks. Worse, concrete walls in the house or the basement can have leaks that can cause more cracks.

The Penthouse Luxury Suites, in particular, offer a unique opportunity to own and enjoy a dream five-star property.
With the fractional ownership program or co-ownership program, buyers are afforded the opportunity to own a home at Harbour Springs at a fraction of a cost.
Through this approach, multiple buyers can co-own the asset. The fractional ownership program is widely practiced and accepted in international markets.
“As a co-owner, you may transfer, will or sell your specific fraction or percentage of the property. There will be a maximum of 12 co-owners in one Penthouse Luxury Suite. This approach offers a practical, affordable and intelligent way to indulge in one’s dream destination,” Cariño concluded. waterproofing in non-toxic formula. It can be used in all concrete structures like fish ponds, firewalls, basements, toilets and bathrooms, roof decks, and even concrete water tanks.
It works by seeping into and bonding permanently with the concrete, becoming one with it and effectively sealing pores so that water and moisture are not absorbed. It can also be applied even on wet surfaces.
Complementing it is Waterplug, a hydraulic cement that has a mechanical characteristic similar to concrete. It is non-toxic and very strong. Once it is set and bonded with the concrete, it can withstand a force of up to 1,500 pounds-per-square-inch (PSI). In comparison, an open faucet has a force of about 40 PSI. Waterplug can also be used to seal cold joints and even anchor bolts of gates and other fixtures.
