Guam Quality of Life Expo participant wins round trip ticket to Palau and a 6-night stay at Palau Central Hotel

Feb 11, 2023— Of the 1200 visitors at the Quality-of-Life Expo in Guam, one lucky winner won a round-trip ticket to Palau sponsored by Palau Visitors Authority (PVA) coupled with a 6-night stay at Palau Central Hotel and dinner for two at Elilai Seaside Dining, sponsored by Palau Central Hotel and Elilai Seaside.
PVA along with Palau Tourism Businesses attended the Quality of life Expo in Guam. Back in December 2022, a brief presentation and meet and greet with the Joint Region Marianas Warfighter and Family Readiness Quality of Life Team took place in Palau. It was an opportunity for local businesses to learn how to build their consumer reach and provide tour services for military service members, military families, and DoD civilian employees based in Guam. This opened an invitation for PVA, along with interested tourism businesses, to attend the Quality of Life Expo on February 11, 2023.
Wrapping up the Quality-of-Life Expo, the first travel shows for PVA of 2023, there were 1,200 visitors and 41 vendors in attendance, 7 of them from Palau. Those attending and representing Palau were the Australian Embassy, Palau, Dudek’s Nest B&B, EmeralDreams Services, Fish’n Fins, Palau Central Hotel, Palau Royal Resort, Mr. Minoru Ueki Jr., Koror State Legislator (KSL) and Vice Chairman of KSL Tourism Committee and from PVA, Courtney Tellei, State and Community Representative II and Janine Tewid, Marketing Representative.
For the grand finale, a raffle drawing for one of the grand prizes was a roundtrip ticket from Guam to Palau coupled with a 7-day, 6-night stay at Palau Central Hotel with dinner for two at Elilai Seaside Dining. The lucky winner for the grand prize went to Ms. Maricel Nieves, who had stopped by the PVA booth earlier.
Other Palau businesses gifted prizes to be raffled including 2 Kayak trips and 50% Off 1 Night Stay from Dudek’s Nest and a 1 Night Stay in the Superior Premium Room with Breakfast for two from the Palau Royal Resort.
