The Philippines further lift restrictions to facilitate travel

Atmosphere Resorts & Spa is completely open with all old and new services available, but we do ask that you make an advance reservation, whether it is for an overnight stay or a weeklong holiday or just a day visit. Occasionally, we have private events and we want to make sure that we don’t disappoint you if you drop in without a reservation. Atmosphere remains the perfect luxury getaway along the Dauin coastline and with each restriction lifted, it becomes easier to visit us.

Since February 10, the Philippines is open for international tourists again, after a 2-year closure and for fully vaccinated and boosted travelers, it is very easy to enter the Philippines.

Since February 2022, the Philippines has been open for international tourism and since November 2022, Covid-tests are no longer required for international or domestic travelers. Travel requirements change frequently though, see below for the current rules but also check in with us if there have been any changes locally, and check with your travel agent or embassy if you are unsure of the requirements regarding visas, proof of vaccination and Covid-tests for international travelers.

Our reservations team is available 7 days per week 8am – 4pm local time by phone, and emails will be answered within 24 hours.
