davao experience part 2

We're now off to Pearl Farm this time, we opted for the 4PM schedule of the boat.  From Marina Wharf, it's a good 45-mins travel time by boat.  

Upon reaching the resort at around 5PM, we were welcomed with these breathtaking views...

Then, we went to the reception area to get our keys.  Since our room is on a hilltop, meaning guests need to climb the stairs to get there huwat?!?  Good thing they have those golf cart services for their guests.  So I hop on it :)

We settled in our room for a while, and then we explore the place a bit more.  We swim for about an hour and then dinner came, we had it at the Maranao Restaurant.  Since our package only comes for the breakfast buffet, we ordered ala carte for our dinner.  Then lights off.

A pahabol summer escapades this year.  Managed to squeeze in a 3D2N vacation at the beautiful Pearl Farm Resort in Samal Island, Davao City last June 24-26.  This was at the height of storm Falcon hitting the metro.  I was kinda worried if our flight would be canceled or not.  Our flight was scheduled to depart early morning at around 4AM so I had no sleep at all. But thank God that during our vacation, the weather cooperated and not a slight of rain drops we've experienced in Davao :)

Because our schedule was an early morning flight, we didn't had the chance to have breakfast in Manila.  So we had our breakfast at the Captain's Bar which is very cozy and inviting.
