The Staycation is a Safecation

Every establishment follows certain rules and regulations imposed by the government for sanitation, safety, health, and many other things. We may be familiar with the “Code of Sanitation” which is very standard for a food establishment. Restaurants that abide by this code could easily be spotted for their quality food, service, and cleanliness. 

All these regulatory guidelines had been in place since time immemorial, but the global pandemic compelled law enforcers to update health protocols on all establishments. They came up with the "New Normal Health and Safety Guidelines for Accommodation Establishments". To ensure that procedures and processes are actively practiced on a daily basis, one must pass the rigorous inspection.

The inspection would not only check the quality of accommodation but also scrutinize whether the establishment would qualify the Covid-19 health and safety protocols for accommodation establishments. It is through this, and only this, that any establishment will be issued with a Certificate of Authority to Operate for Staycations (CAOS).

Here are reasons why you should go to a Staycation resort in Davao City with a Certificate of Authority to Operate for Staycations (CAOS) like the Malagos Garden Resort.

• We Are NOT A Quarantine Facility

We assure you that the lovely girl next door you have been eyeing ever since you got in is wholesome and healthy. If you remember, before you are finally allowed to enter the premises of Malagos Garden Resort, there are a lot of precautionary measures to take. 

It starts with a Health Declaration Form to complete, body temperature check, sanitizing mats to sanitize shoes, an alcohol stand for your hands, and finally prominently placed visual reminders about handwashing, respiratory etiquette, and proper use of face mask and face shield.

Aside from that, every part of the resort is disinfected regularly with alcohol stands around the area. Be it in your room, the linens of your room, the food service area, kitchen, and all public areas are regularly disinfected, especially the objects that are frequently touched. 

Protocols and drills have been the practice in case anyone in the resort shows even the most acute of symptoms. The main goal of the new health security is to reduce the transmission of viruses through guidelines that would not hurt but rather help us. This is what every Davao accommodation establishment must do.

• Not All 4 or 5 Star Rated  Accommodation Establishments Can Operate As Staycations

For hotels to accept guests for leisure purposes, they have to apply for a Certificate of Authority to Operate as a Staycation (CAOS) establishment. Any rating is not a prerequisite to be granted with this certificate. 

This just shows what the pandemic has been trying to teach us on what really are the essential things in our life. Just like the realization that porridge may be not considered something essential to some, but actually is a basic necessity. 

The importance of quality food and room service is very much appreciated. However, if we try to go beyond the glitz and glamor we see and beyond the highlights of a Davao Tourist Destination, there are more important things than what meets the eye. What’s important is who you are spending your time with, and how time is spent safely – always. 

Being with us at the Malagos Garden Resort, we highly suggest contacting reservations through our social media accounts and enjoy thebest place to relax in the city in a breeze. But beyond this, the ease of the online transactions and being just near the city – all safe and cozy with your family – is what makes staying here truly remarkable. Experience your stay with us with your family now and feel the love of quality time accompanied by excellent service.
