 | Davao Pearl Farm Reviews | 1 - 2 of 2 |  |
It was a wholesome and funfilled experience at the Pearl Farm. From the airport, we took a cab to the Davao Marina, the port for the boat that shuttles visitors to the resort. A warm welcome awaited us as we disembarked: the sound of drumbeats and a refreshing drink, with the hospitable staff there smiling and attending to our needs. We occupied one of the Samal houses which was just above the water - on stilts! The room opens up to the calm sea whose waves rush beneath the floor and the seagulls sing a song of victory as they catch their feast of fish on the water. The room is airconditioned but there was a ceiling fan too. We got to tour the resort with the van driver guiding us. we only got to do some snorkelling on the Malipano island located just across the resort. Going back and forth the islands was not a problem since it there was a speed boat available to take us for free. We were even allowed to have our lunch served at Malipano brought from the main resort. The best spot to snorkle is at another island for 1500 php for 3 hours. The resort is small but we hardly had time to do every activity available to us since the beauty of the place was more than what one could ask for.
The Pearl Farm is expensive. But, on occassions such as the Mother's day or the Father's day, they do offer cheap packages. the best thing to do is to ask the people in the resort. We were originally reserved at the Hilltop rooms but we were allowed to upgrade our accommodations since they had a few guests staying overnight. Most people go to the resort on day tour which cost 1,500 php per person inclusive of lunch and the boat ride. Still, for every centavo we paid, we got really good service and had a really wonderful time.
When going to the Pearl Farm, you must have a reservation because the boat might be full and there are only about 4 trips per day. The first boat leaves the Marina at 8 am to go to the resort while the last boat leaves the resort at 4 pm. The last boat that goes back to the resort is at 6 pm.
There are two pools to choose from which opens at 9 am and closes at 9 pm. There are several aquatic activities - jetski, snorkle, diving, to name a few. The resort staff are professionals and will be willing to provide extra help when you require them. Some extra service are extended to their guest whenever feasible. There is a videoke bar for those who like belting out a few songs.
when you need a nice nightcap, there is a spa service that you could go to. Just be sure to have the service reserved at the time you want it. There are just two beds but it can only be occupied by two persons who come from the same group. Otherwise, only one person at a time will be accommodated to ensure privacy.
