A Week of Summer in Dakak Park And Beach Resort

Second half of April, some cousins, relatives and members of Tita's Cathecism organization chose to spend a week of Summer in the scary place of the Philippines, the Mindanao. But guess what? It was not scary at all - it was amazing! We picked the beautiful paradise of Dakak Park and Beach Resortin Dapitan, Zamboanga Del Norte. My manager at work once mentioned how nice the Resort was and wondered how the Resort look today? And of course, who wouldn't be interested to experience Dakak after that commercial made by AlDub (famous Alden Richards and Maine Mendoza loveteam)?

Just another skyline shot

While we are docking in Dapitan port

It's Holy!!!

Cool shot at Dapitan Wharf!

So, why the place called Dakak? While on our way to the Resort, we had a chance to visit Rizal Shrine. During the quick tour, the guide mentioned Dakak stands for "Dagkong Kakahoyan" or Big Trees. In addition to this trivia, Dapitan City is called Historic City of the South. Why not? This City got a lot and is indeed part of the History. Not to mention, this is where our National Hero, Dr. Jose Rizal was exiled and met her lovelife, Josephine Bracken. Also, in Dapitan lives the smallest person in the whole world. We can see Holy Rosary Cathedral of Dipolog, the City’s century-old cathedral. And of course, most Spanish houses which are reserved until this era.

Visit Bohol Tourist Destinations and Beautiful Spots

FaceCebu (FC) had already visited other Provinces and Islands in the Philippines like Baguio, Boracay, some parts of Mindanao like General Santos, Cagayan De Oro, Zamboanga but failed to experience Central Visayas completely. Not until last weekend, when FC visited Bohol with the help of Travel Blogger, Geezelle Tapangan, who lives in this beautiful island. Now, I'll show you where to go when you have a chance of visiting the land of Tarsiers and Chocolate Hills, Bohol!


Follow us in our Social Media Accounts

Facebook: FaceCebu.Net| Twitter: @facecebu

Instagram: @facecebu| SnapChat: markmonts




1. Alona Public Beach in Panglao Island
This public beach is situated in Alona, Panglao Island and got the Boracay feels. The white sand stretches into the shore but sadly, there were nobody who maintain the cleanliness of the surroundings. The only good thing is restaurants and hotels are available for Locals and Tourists.







2. Visit Sandugo (Blood Compact) in Tagbilaran City
Nothing to expect a lot in this place but if you are a History-Lover then you can relate a lot why it is called Sandugo. Honestly, this is the place to pay tribute and respect to our ancestors in Bohol.





3. River Cruise at Loboc
I've been to two other River Cruises in Bojo Cebu and Dapitan, Zamboanga Del Norte but this Loboc River Cruise is different as it is grand! Their process from reservations to accommodation during lunch buffet and during the cruise is definitely amazing. They also prepare a quick dance presentation from one of the stop during the Cruise. Just one thing that I don't like - their foods are not that great. But the experience is worth it!










4. Twin Hanging Foot Bridge in Sevilla
Okay, all I thought I was that brave as I already conquered Zipline in Lake Sebu and shouted in a Roller Coaster ride in Fantasyland at Glorietta Dapitan but when I set foot in that Hanging Bridge, they shook like omg! But when I was almost near the end point, I did enjoy a lot. This is another must-visit spot of Bohol!







5. Sevilla River Flow
This is not really part of our tour but Geezelle mentioned that there is a cute mini-falls but actually that was a river, Sevilla River. As a nature-lover, there is a satisfaction seeing thus water falling down to the river or it was just me being emotional beast. LOL





6. Tarsier Conservation Area in Loboc.
 Of course, Bohol tour is not perfect without the visit of Tarsier, smallest primate in the world and they are living in Bohol.During our quick visit, we only saw 7 tarsiers but it gave us hope - a hope that this specie will soon be restored from it's endangered stage.




7. Man-Made Mahogany Forest in Loboc and Bilar Towns
This stop is one of my favorites. I just love how God uses Man to save the earth and I mean it. Those Mahogany Trees were planted by Boholanos in the 2KM stretch of Loboc and Bilar towns. It felt like I was not in Bohol.





8. Butterflies Conservation Center in Bilar
This destination was disappointing because there were no butterflies flying around. Okay, there were butterflies like a number of butterflies but not a lot to be called a sanctuary. Anyway, there was a nice area inside the center that captured everybody - we called it a Hobbit door and it was really nice seeing it.

.



9. Chocolate Hills from Carmen
I felt so sorry seeing a small number of Chocolate Hills. I remember these beautiful sceneries in prints when I was in Elementary. And last weekend was my chance and I was very excited but seeing them in person which I could only count by hands - very disappointing! I hope the government can do restore these natural creations.





10. Canawa Cold Spring in Candijay
For me, this can be called "Enchanted River of Bohol". The color of it's cold spring really looks the same to that of Enchanted River in Surigao Del Sur. One thing didn't work for me, there was no maintenance. People come and go and I even saw trashes in the banks they left behind. There was no trash bin in the entrance and I mean garbage cans are not visible. But generally, this is nice spot to visit and have cold dip.





11. Can-Umantad Falls in Candijay
Another favorite of mine - very astonishing!!! Such beauty! I really love watching water falls in waterfalls! Why not? They are cool and romantic! Agree? Check these photos if you do!






12. Anda Public Beach in Anda
We ended the 3-day tour in Anda Public Beach. We stayed in Little Miami Beach Resort which is for us a 5-star pointer. It's not that the Resort is luxurious but the customer service and rooms are recommendable especially when you travel with a buddy or in group of four. Try taking your dinner or lunch in beachfront at One Castle Bar and Restaurant. They had the best dishes in that area. But if you are tight in budget, try their Anda Food Center which offers a lot of choices like carenderia, topsilog and even Pizza and Burgers/Pasta.










13 Try Shot's in Bar
Enjoy night life at Shot's In Restobar in Jagna. They have one room for a videoke session but the whole place got a live band and some booze and good thing, chill in beach front baby!

Last year, Mactan Cebu International Airport(MCIA) has been named as the Best Airport in the Philippines by Sleepinginairports.net (SIA) and ranked 18th in Asia. This year or years to come, MCIA might become the country's only International Airport leaving the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) behind. And just yesterday, GMR Megawide Cebu Airport Corp. (GMCAC) invited Media and Cebu Bloggersto experience the latest changes and updates from soon to be the world's friendliest airport gateway, Mactan Cebu International Airport.

We are just excited as you are, so here are the five changes and updates of Mactan Cebu International Airport (MCIA) as of second quarter of this year.

1. Breastfeeding Room

The permanent location is situated right after the Final Security Check catering to the nursing needs of traveling mothers for both domestic and international passengers. The room features 4 private nursing cubicles complete with a couch and an ottoman on each cubicle; 1 lavatory; 2 baby changing tables with slide tables each; a microwave to reheat feeding bottles or baby food; a refrigerator to store breast milk and a push-button sliding door for ease and comfort.







2. Drinking Water Stations

This newly added update to our Airport is a big help to our beloved travelers who sometimes failed to buy bottled drinking water outside or got no luxury of purchasing "dollar-priced" drinking water inside the Airport. These water stations are available in International and Domestic pre-departure entrances.
 


 3. Plaza Premium Lounge

Plaza Premium Lounges is a collection of airport lounges, meet and greet services and airport hotels worldwide, that strive to make air travel easier and more pleasant. Lounges offer a variety of services, which range from complimentary food and beverages to showers, massages and business centers.

For inquiries, email philippines@plaza-network.com






 4. Newly Opened Establishments

To expand the dining and shopping options for passengers and stakeholders, GMCAC opened additional retail and F&B outlets.
 
 Jollibee, with one outlet each at the Domestic Departures and Arrivals areas.
Starbucks which is located at the Northwing Check-in counter area
Missy Bon-Bon located at teh Gate 5 Domestic Departures

5. Kiddie Toilet

Meanwhile, GMCAC stands firm on its mandate to provide women-responsive and children-friendly facilities. For instance, the company is installing a cubicle for children inside the newly renovated washrooms complete with a children's urinal and toilet.



Special Feature: VeriPax Passenger Reconciliation System
Starting May 9, VeriPax Passenger Reconciliation System will go live! This helps streamline the security check process. Check the video below for guide.





Last year, GMCAC has started working on MCIA's Terminal 2 to boost the airport's passenger carrying capacity to 12.5 to 14 million a year from the current 4.5 million by October of 2018.

I'm not sure but there's something in Traveling that heals the wounds in our past. This is not "hugot". Nod, if you agree. Last weekend, I traveled again and finally completed my Central Visayas trip at the Magical land of Siquijor. Together with Information Technology office mates, we journeyed to Siquijor via Southern Cebu Land trip and a side trip at the City of Gentle People, Dumaguete City. In this article, I just want to show some photos taken in some of the instagram-worthy Tourist destinations of Dumaguete and Siquijor during our quick travel.

Summertime is starting to close. People are now preparing for the coming rainy days. But before we embrace the cold weather, our group ended Summer Season in Sipalay City last weekend. It was a hell of a trip and I mean a 9-hour bus (plus fastcraft) travel from Cebu to Negros Occidental. Famed as "The Jewel of the Sugar Island", Sipalay City is now gaining good reviews from Tourists and Locals with their beautiful islets and Beaches. This seaside City has a lot to offer such as Cliff Diving, Kayaking, Islets hopping and don't forget to taste their delectable foods.

PERTH PARADISE RESORT (SIPALAY TOWER)

Honestly, Perth Paradise Resort is a just a normal mountain resort with a pricy room rates and no breakfast included. But plus points to the Locals who are working in the Resort - very accommodating personnel. So basically, in Perth, you are paying a lot of money for the aerial view of the famous Sipalay Islets and I think it is really worth the peso. To witness a Sunset while dipping in a clean swimming pool and having a booze with your friends is definitely the exact definition of Chill.

After a very successful Global Wellness Day, Shangri-La's Mactan Resort and Spa launched its Marine conservation Hub, Maco’s Hub: Marine Conservation Kaakohan Center. Why do we need to reserve our Marine Resources? Why do we care? Majority of our food source is coming from our Seas and Oceans. We love fishes, Squids and even crave for crabs and shrimps for meals but did we contribute something to protect their ecosystem? Majority of us didn't - that includes me! With the help of Shangri-La's Mactan  MACO's Hub, we can inspire Beach Goers to uplift marine biodiversity and defend their homes.

The center was named after the resort’s mascot, “Maco”, a seahorse, a known icon of a healthy aquatic ecosystem. Maco stands for marine conservation and “kaakohan” is a Cebuano word meaning ownership. Having a strong sense of ownership towards the marine environment is what the hub aims promote to guests. It is adorned with a gallery where guests familiarize themselves with the marine species found at the resort’s sanctuary, and moving forward it will be the venue where guests participate in corporate social responsibility activities under the resort’s Care for Nature program.




Maco’s Hub inspires to create a healthy environment for over a hundred species of fish that call the Shangri-La Marine Sanctuary home, and ultimately to raise awareness on the importance of protecting underwater life throughout the world.




Shangri-La Hotels and Resorts remains committed to operating in an economically, socially and environmentally responsible manner whilst balancing the interests of diverse stakeholders. In striving to be a leader in corporate citizenship and sustainable development, a corporate-level CSR Committee drives the company’s initiatives in the strategic areas of stakeholder relations, environment, health and safety, supply chain and employees. These focus areas are unified under the umbrella brand of “Sustainability”, together with Shangri-La’s core CSR projects “Embrace” and “Sanctuary”.




MACO is located fronting the Shangri-La Marine Sanctuary at the beachfront.

"We adopted a unique metal framework for the new smartphone, allowing it to possess the unique glow and touch of metal without compromising its richness and aesthetics.

Australian Beef, Truly Good In Every Way

Are Cebuano Diners ready for this good news? Combining the nutritional properties, sustainability measures and high food safety standards of Australian beef, one can be assured of enjoying a product that is truly good in every way. As a new standard for red meat, Australian Grass Fed Beef offers a world class meat which Cebuanos would really love.

Main Course during Let's Meat Up Cebu. Cape Grim grassfeed beef tenderloin "Truffle" grilled pink with mushroom sauce enhanced with truffle sauce and accompanied by potato dumpling.

Our host last weekend for Let's Meat Up, Anzani Restaurant in Lahug, Cebu City





Our tables are ready for our 4-Course Dinner.
In the recent get-together dubbed "Let's Meat Up", jointly presented by Australian Trade Commission and Meat and Livestock Australia (MLA), it was highlighted that Australia's climate and environment provides the perfect growing conditions for all types of Beef, Lamb and Goat. With lush green pastures across the island continent, Australian farmers are able to develop a more natural approach to farming.


Ms. Natasha Monks, Australian Trade Commissioner noted that "In Australia, almost all cattle and sheep are raised on natural pastures and this meat is described as "grass fed" or "pasture fed". In the Philippines, over 90% of Australian beef that comes in is grass fed, and this means Filipinos can enjoy a better quality, healthier and tastier beef".

Let's Meat Up First Course, Australian Beef Carpaccio accompanied by Wild Aruguia Salad and Mustard Cream.

Let's Meat Up! Second course, Homemade Cannelloni filled with Australian lamb shoulder stew and "Ricotta" cheese oven baked with cherry tomatoes and parmesan cheese


One grass fed beef product that has been sought after by butchers and chefs who have built their careers on choosing the best product and letting it speak for itself, is Cape Grim. Named after the North-Western point of Tasmania, Cape Grim Beef is the epitome of what the natural environment can do to a product. Cape Grim, along with other grass fed products are now available in top Cebu restaurants and supermarkets.

Australian grass fed beef is naturally low in fat and cholesterol, while offering a high level of Omega 3 fatty acids known to lower blood pressure and reduce the risk of certain cancers.

Let's Meat Up Dessert. Chocolate-cherry baton dark and white chocolate mousse in votive glass Cebu mango sorbet; butter soil!

With many countries, demanding full traceability from paddock to plate, MLA and the wider red meat industry have implemented a number of traceability and quality assurance programs, thus ensuring product quality and integrity, two key points that underpin Australia's valuable reputation as a global leader in the red meat industry.

"We are excited about this development. There are lot of things going for it" - good in flavor, good for the environment and good for the animal" Perez added.
