The waters of this island The Pearl Farm Beach Resort is inviting. Crystal clear waves splash gently on the shore and the calm surface of the rock pool washes over the edge into the sea below.
Situated in a secluded cove on exotic Samal Island off Davao City, in the Southern Philippines, this world class beach resort is set among inviting swaying coconut palms and fringed by a glittering white sand beach.
Located in
the southern part of the Philippines is the Samal group
of Islands, an archipelago consisting of nine islands
which stretch out over a land area of 28,000 hectares.
Samal is a beautiful, calm and exotic island with a
coastline garlanded with white sand beaches, abundant
marine life, rock formations, mangroves, and landscape
elements of coconut palms, flowering plants and
fruit-bearing trees. The area is blessed with various
natural attractions and affluent flora and fauna.
Nestled on the quiet side of Samal Island, The Pearl Farm
Beach Resort is a mere 45-minute boat ride from the wharf. This
14-hectare spread was once a pearl farm, where thousands of
white-lipped oysters, transported from the Sulu Sea, were
cultivated for their pink, white and gold pearls. Today, the
resort beckons with the promise of a relaxing private retreat,
under the care of our friendly, charming Filipino
staffs.
All 73 Deluxe rooms, suites and cottages are set on stilts
above the tropical blue water or balanced on a hillside over
looking the sea. The resort is even able to offer even more
luxurious villas in the maximum privacy, which is located on
the nearby exclusive island of Malipano.
Guest facilities include airport and boat transfers, baby
sitting, hairdryers, medical service, safe deposit boxes,
postage, massage, manicure, room service, cable TV, email
access, telephone and telefax.
Plenty of
opportunities are available for delightful open-air
dining on South-East Asian and Western cuisine at the
Maranao restaurant, and guests can also enjoy peaceful
evenings with cocktails at the Parola Bar.
Extensive water sports include windsurfing, speed-boating,
scuba diving, water-skiing, hobbiecat sailing, water-cycling
and rowing, as well as organised island-hopping tours.
Alternatively you can sunbathe at two outdoor swimming pools,
relax in the Jacuzzi, on the two tennis courts or in the fully
equipped games room.
