Stayed at Waterfront Insular Hotel Davao - Davao, Philippines.
|
From the waterfront hotel we were able to rent a boat to take us island hopping and see the other resorts located in the area. I was surprised at the many islands and resorts that were there that catered to beachfront swimming, snorkeling/scuba diving and fishing.
It was unfortunate that it was quite rainy during our stay that we were not able to fully enjoy it but I definitely would like to come back to the place.

There is only one place to go to at night and that is "Venue". It is a complex with about ten restaurants, Italian, Thai, Seafood, Western, etc., they share an outside seated area and there is a live band. There is also a huge concert bar/disco with live and recorded music.

Stayed at Marco Polo Davao, The - Davao, Philippines.

During a time of high terrorist alert in the world, this hotel had security measures almost 'beyond the call of duty'! We felt safe and secure at all times. We got around town and visited most of the sites of interest with relatives and friends driving private vehicles, including an in-law owned large jeepney!! We felt safe travelling in a group which consisted mostly of Filipino in-laws who were extremely savvy about our safety. This was a successful pleasure trip during a time of difficult world conditions.

walking distance to MacDonalds... a harrowing taxi ride to the nearest Bank and a lengthy wait for traveller's checks to be changed... nice pool on roof... no tours taken...

Getting around Davao was a experience. Jeepnies were fun to ride and a good bargin to get around town. Lots of sites to see, the shopping malls were fun to visit, lots of bargins and sales on the weekends.

Stayed at Pearl Farm Beach Resort - Davao, Philippines.

The hotel was lovely (we changed from a hilltop - which was a good hike uphill - to a suite). The suite was FABULOUS and the ambiance was perfect. We enjoyed our stay there so much that we rearranged our plans and made a second, two-day visit there during our vacation. The staff were friendly and attentive. The menu selection at the restaurant was minimal, however, the food was excellent. We also rented a banana boat for the children which they enjoyed tremendously. On our return, we decided to stay later so we took a private speed boat back to Davao. It was definitely worth the money paid! For certain, we will return to Pearl Farm again.
