Wanting to escape the noise and pollution of the city?
Spend your vacation leave wisely and relax at this awesome paradise!
We were so lucky to receive a Free Day Tour VIP pass from Ate Marigold.
This wasn't my first time to visit Pearl Farm but this was my first travel experience together with my partner. It was an amazing day indeed. We get the chance to relax and escape from school stress. It was a 45 minutes relaxing boat ride from Pearl Farm Marina, Lanang to the resort. A lot of beach resorts will be passed along the way, one of those was the Maxima Aquafun. Which was our next target resort to visit. 🏊
The Pearl Farm's welcoming aura and friendly staff had never changed since the last time I visited the place. As we arrived to the resort, a jolly music was played and the feeding of fishes at the Parola Wharf came after. Sadly, I didn't get to take pictures during the feeding because we were then gathered for a short briefing of rules and regulations. Complimentary drinks were then given together with a towel and locker keys where we can keep our belongings. Boy's locker rooms are different for the Girl's since it will also serve as a common rest room for Day Tour guests.

After we get to change into our beach clothes, we then started to tour the whole resort. We first visited Butik, their souvenir shop. We decided to buy pasalubong first. They sell t-shirts, mugs, ref magnets, pearl products as well as Tadeco livelihood products. Swimwear are also available in their shop.

After we bought pasalubong, we climbed up to see their Balay Buildings and Conference Room. Up there you can see the Parola and the Malipano Island.

From the top of the hill we climbed down to visit the other part of the resort where the Mandaya Rooms and Mandaya Pool are located. In that part of the resort you can find the Ylang-ylang Spa as well as the Activity Area where you can play billiards, darts and air hockey with friends.

After a quick dip in the pool we then went back to the Maranao Restaurant to have lunch. The food they served was superb! There are a lot of viands to choose from. I love the way they cooked the Talakitok. I can't remember the name of the dish but I can't forget how tasty it was. Also the fruits and veggies they served were fresh.

After the lavish lunch, we settled at some cottages along the beach and had some talk before deciding to avail our 30 mins. free use of snorkeling gears. Pearl Farm Beach Resort has one of the best diving spot in Samal Island. We saw fishes of many kinds.
Visiting Pearl Farm over and over again will not lessen your fond of it. You will always be awed by the beauty and serenity of the place every time, which will make you want to come back again. If will be given a chance to visit this place again for the third time, I won't waste that chance and pack my bikinis and zoooom!
