Water Garden Forest Park Resort

We had a quick tour at the Water Garden found in Brgy Taculing Bacolod City this summer. You will love the swimming pool once you get there just as I did. There are also enough facilities for those who are planning for an overnight in their villa. After its renovation, the Water Garden Forest Park Resort even became better and bigger. The place is good enough for those who are planning a recreational activity together with their loved ones.

There are also different amenities to the place such as their Play Fountain, Mini Gazebo, Grand Gazebo, and the Lazy River all suitable for those who wanted to celebrate social events in the place. Aside from that, there are also different rental fees for the tents. From the Green Tent price of Php500, there are other round tables available too.

For people who wanted to be scheduled for an overnight stay, there are food court, WiFi access, board room and other more facilities.

Ogtong Cave Resort

I really had a great time with the resort though we only came there just in one day. Perhaps it was even half the day because I really just planned to take photos. Oh well, I admit I really did plan to really look at the beach resort. *wink*

What does it look like? It’s kinda rather full of grassy lawns and that’s what makes it even nicer because you could eventually sit with it despite their pretty chairs and patio furniture. The way it was landscaped is real eye-catchy plus the swimming pool which is basically from their cave’s fresh water spring.

The water inside the cave is real clean and so clear. You could go down at it in chest level. The maximum people to fit there would be 40 though that would appear too crowded already. But that should not be a problem since when you go out there is that concrete walkways leading you to the pool.

As for their overlooking seashore, it’s pure haven. It took me a while to remain in this spot because the view is really spectacular. It is soothing in a way that you would also want to go down the beach if only it’s not too sunny. You could, of course, go down the beach if you want.

see what I mean? ;)

> I so much like their flowers.

Their villas are exclusive areas for honeymooners only so I've only taken the outside shots.

The Santa. Fe Beach Club in particular is just a perfect summer get-away destination.

An Idyllic Bantayan Island

Yeah, I have been away from my blog for a week, I know. It’s warming up and I have enjoyed the white ground for this summer break. I was thinking that there is so much to blog from the week I’ve been away.

Bantayan Island, Cebu – A small Island here in the Philippines found in the northwest coast in mainland Cebu. You could say it’s slightly developed and not so over crowded except during tourists days. Like what my aunt told me that there were such lots of tourists last Easter days. It’s beautiful to see locals making their place even more wonderful to visit. There are farms to make as living. Others do their art craft out of shell like that woman I met at Sillon.

The place would be perfect especially if you are finding for peace and quite time to think and just to relax. Imagine sitting on a bench seeing skies painted in blue, smelling clean air, touching that white sand and of course their marvelous turquoise water. Oh man! The experience is so wonderful. We rode for sea tour to see the corals reaching the Virgin Island. They were really clear and beautiful. My skin gets tanned though. *grin*

Life here is relaxing. No shopping malls and discos. I saw one movie theater but not that big enough as compare to city life. Their plaza is nice and they have such an organized market place. Also, there are lodges to if you are planning for a trip. Sugar Beach Resort, Seaview Apartelle and Marlin Beach Resort were just a few I could name since I have relatives at Bantayan so I cannot able to go into detail for the pricing.

It so happen that people would usually get around the area using motorbikes. Whew! It took me an effort to ride one though that was for a short while. I didn’t really have the patient to learn it. Hehe. Well as for their main transportation to travel towards their market, you can go for motorized tricycles.

In their market they have crabs and scallops which are unbelievably cheaper that we were expecting.

Really, the place is sure worthy for a visit. It is all in all idyllic, unspoiled and indeed a paradise.
