Before we went back here in Tokyo we had a week blast of fun. From the Christening of my little Axel, spending time at hotel pools in Royal Mandaya Hotel and Grand Regal Hotel & Casino for 3 nights then the celebration of my Mom in-laws retirement party. She had 3 times celebrations and one of that one was her birthday party. I posted photos in my flicker already. If you fancy you can check it out here. Then the overnight stay at Blue Waters Resort was a great time away from the hustle and bustle! I was with my 3 boys, my brother then our 2 yaya’s! It’s located in Garden City of Samal. A little off coast to Davao City. We paid 200 pesos for the boat ride. It’s around 10 minutes or 15. The perks of going there at weekdays? Is that we were the only guests in the resort! It’s a nice place if you really like to just relax.

Here are some photos. Click to view them bigger. :)

We rented 2 family bungalows. And can you imagine that it’s only 1,800/night? It’s not with breakfast though but it’s very cheap already. Don’t expect too much from the room but it’s clean,with aircon, huge beds, toilet is clean,cable tv and a terrace to view the beach! The bungalow where my bro and the yaya’s stayed has a little kitchen. With 2 rooms plus each rooms has 2 beds! With toilet as well. Friendly service and the resort is very clean! they have beautiful flowers, sandy white beach, they got a pool and you can go up the hill to view Davao City!

I have a lot of flower shots there because they have a garden that has abundant of flowers:)

The boys had fun swimming plus the yaya’s too..hehe I was the photographer so, I was in the side always. lol But I took a swim in the pool later that night!

Anyhow, it was a nice getaway..Hope we can do it again next years summer vacation;)

Hi Yen,
We stayed at Pearl Farm resort in 2000. I was beautiful beyond compare. The huts were almost at sea level at high tide. Maybe a foot above the water. The sunsets were breath taking. The best vacation I ever had. Hawaii does not even come close. I would love to go back someday but we have a little son now and the violence is too strong right now. But maybe someday.
Regards,
Scott in Arizona

not all of mindanao is in strife. DAVAO CITY in particular is very peaceful–better than most parts of the US actually. you should try to come back and spend your vacation here
