Last Wednesday, I opted to take a day-off and went to Samal to visit the beautiful private beach resort of the Lacia Family.
It was indeed very beautiful though they were not yet done developing it. I want to go back in there again however climbing up to the road is too torturous for me. I almost lost consciousness. Good thing Mrs. Rosa Amada Cainglet (kelangan full name?! hehehe) Te Claudette Clemente, Dondon and Te Tessie Interino were there to keep me counscious.
I collected a lot of beautiful pebbles from the seashore. I also had the chance to paddle on a small boaty with Yamyam and Janjan before swimming for more than 3 hours straight!
Anyway, here are some of the pictures…

I’m planning to go to Samal next weekend for 2 nights. Could you recommend a good but not so expensive resort. Also, is there a free wi-fi in the island?
Hello Tom, thanks for the visit. There are a lot of beaches in Samal which are not expensive. The most popular (inexpensive) resort is the Paradise Island http://www.paradiseislanddavao.com/ Their contact number is also located at their website. I hope I have helped you with this info. For the wi-fi thingy.. I am not sure but I think there is in paradise island and a few resorts…
