Philippines
It's simply breathtaking and the staff are all ready to greet and help you here. So full of interesting wildlife and foliage! So many different birds for avid birdwatchers. The waters are shallow, gentle, warm, and crystal clear blue. They also run a program for kids here, Junior Hotelier, ask at the front desk if they don't give you details immediately. They have a special welcome box of treats for kids in the rooms when you arrive. The staff infuse the in-room treats they leave you everyday with Filipino culture. The Filipino snacks always come with a small blurb on its origins on the package and some explanation on local ingredients. If you choose not to have your room cleaned, they leave the treat on your porch.
The highlight for is the great customer service, its too good to be true but they are consistently awesome until your very last day. The ala carte food at Firefish resto is good.
