I had an opportunity to join the tripping sponsored by the owners of Punta del Sol Resort in Island Garden City of Samal (IGACoS) two Saturdays ago. I was with my sister Allyn and her husband Cy who were pretty ashamed because we arrived in the meeting area a little late that the agreed time. :( The trip was scheduled every weekend to those who are interested to purchase a property within Samal Area. I don't have any plan to buy a property in Samal yet but we went there to do a favor for a friend who are looking for an investment in Samal area.
We went to several places that day but our first stop is Punta del Sol Resort Restaurant and Aqua Sports wherein we were greeted with welcome drinks. =)

We don't have the luxury of time to stay longer in the resort but we promised to be back with our whole family hopefully soon. The place is so peaceful and a perfect getaway from the busy city life. Although, the time we spent in the resort is short, we still get to enjoy and feel the place as if we are some kind of tourists.=)
Punta del Sol is a 20-minute boat ride from Sta. Ana Wharf in Magsaysay Avenue. You can click HERE to visit their website for further information.




















Looks like a lovely place to visit!

Hi Rovs! Mukang isolated tong place ano? Kasi parang mapuno sya. Sensya ka na ha. Di me ganu nakaka online now. Pasilip silip lang pag may chance kahit 30 mins. Maya na flight ko.
ReplyDeleteOO sis...Nasa Samal Island sya at ang only way para makapunta is by boat pero pwde din palang mag car pero itatawid ng barge...
DeleteSalamat sa pagsilip. Sorry medyo busy nga din ako ngayon dahil ako ang nag aasikaso sa Papa ko na nasa hospital...
Enjoy your vacation ha...
Been there in 2010 for an event at work. Pretty much OK but my Boss and the rest of my comrades at work opted to book separately as water was scarce in the rooms. Read: The entire Region XII was billeted here for an overnight stay. However, the view was spectacular and this is the perfect place when one wants solitude from the hustle and bustle of the city.
ReplyDeleteBut we were happier when the Boss decided to have us booked at Blu Jazz instead ;-)
Ay ganun bah? Not so good experience pala for you and the rest of your group.
DeleteActually, mas nice and mas developed ang blu jazz..
O nga Rovz. pero balita ko meron daw mas maganda kesa blue jazz. Bago ata. Do you have an idea where is it? Sa samal island din daw.
DeleteAw kelan kaya ako makakapunta jan!
ReplyDeleteSis, your award for this blog is waiting for you to claim it.
