Di na kami nakapunta sa pearl farm short na sa budget. Hotel Galleria rate 1,600 good for 2pax. no free breakfast, but they have swimming pool and walking distance sa Mall.

Contrary to some comments here it's pretty easy to commute here in Davao, pabalik na kami ng Manila and stayed here for 3d2n with 5k damage per person including airfare but excluding pasalubongs. Thanks Sa mga nag recommend ng royal house, pretty decent lodging for the affordable price and it's in the heart of davao. Dami multicabs available papunta Sa Kung Saan Saan plus with our handy sygic maps from iPad, we were able to go to anywhere and everywhere without getting lost hehe. Thanks to technology. Twice lang kami nag taxi [textspeak!] from airport and back :) so [textspeak!] natipid sa pang taxi pinang food trip nalang haha.Anlaki na ng pinagbago ng Davao since the first time I set foot here more than 4 yrs ago, very progressive and impressive kaya Lang with that, I miss the dirt cheap prices Kase parang Manila na ngayon ang davao when it comes to prices.maganda din Sa samal kulang Lang yung time kaya maxima, hagimit and paradise Lang yung napuntahan namin. Maxima was fun, especially for the adventurous ones,sakit Lang Sa katawan. Haha. Hagimit was beautiful and well maintained, sayang nag photo ops Lang kami at di naligo Sa falls. Overall it was fun and easy for us. Would want to go back with friends pag nag promo fare uli. Definitely more fun in the Philippines! Haha

hi sis jappybee, i'm glad you liked Royale House. Nakakuha ka ba ng discount sis? kasi yung mga sis dito binibigyan yata ng discount (i'm not sure lang).

aicute12 ano bang activities ang gusto mong gawin dun? depende kasi. If 7 days naman kayo, i suggest mag one or two nights kayo sa Samal Island. Maraming magandang resorts dun and pwede kayo mag day tour. Ilan ba kayo?

Hi mga sis!

We will be in Davao on Jan 19 to 21.
Planning to stay at Royale House on our first day since nakapromo naman sya this january. Question lang, malayo ba ang royal house  sa marina wharf? how long will it take kaya? And to crocodile farm?

^hi sis, yes malayo ang royale sa marina wharf pero pwede naman siya itaxi. (sabi nga ng mga taga-davao, lahat sa kanila, malapit!) yung crocodile farm din mas malayo pa sis.

remember:
ang royale house malapit sa aldevinco, city hall, san pedro church, magsaysay park, marco polo, apo view and the bars in the down town area.

i think bihira sa mga sises dito ang nagchecheck in sa may Lanang side where Marina Wharf, Abreeza, Casino and Waterfront Davao are. Ang alam ko lang kasi na hotel yung sa friend ko which is Tropika. I think room rates nila is P1,900. Mahal compared to mga hotels like Royale House. Although marami din naman sa area na ito na mga budget hotels -- yun lang wala pa sa GT ang nakatry. And malayo siya sa downtown.

sis dime060608 sino kausap mo sa Davao? si Joy ba?

Hi sis!
Si Shanine po yung kausap ko sa Royale House. Actually kakabayad ko lang today sa BPI. Sa kanila na lang kami sa first day kasi plan namin is mag peoples park and aldevinco on that day after makapag check in. Sobrang aga lang kasi ng punta namin pa Pearl farm kaya worry ako baka masyado sya malayo. 7:30 kasi dapat nasa Marina wharf na kami..

fortunately/ unfortunately we're moving there for good. may kailangan kasing asikasuhin si hubby dun :(
nung New year ko lang nalaman. kaya eto, tuliro ako kasi wala sa plan ang paglipat dun. just being an obedient wife hahaha!

kung sa bagay i haven't explored davao pa. i haven't explored samal! at gusto ko rin bumalik sa sa surfing spot nila sa Mati, Davao Oriental --  4hours away. sabi rin nila, this is the best city to relocate. hayzz

^sis sa april pa ako dadating dun e. ilan kayo sis? baka gusto niyo mag boating? explore davao has a nice boat... you can rent it for your group. mas sulit kung marami kayo para mura lang ang per head.

dahil matagal-tagal kayo, you can also go to Mati Davao. Maganda dun if you like surfing.  yun lang, 4 hours away siya. no need to rent a van kasi may mga fx going there

The mayor of Mati is a former colleague and a good friend of mine. She's a very good person.   :)

Hi mga sis! Nakabalik na po kami manila.. We enjoyed the vacation sa Davao lalo na sa Pearl Farm.
Sarap nga ng Inihaw na tuna sa Luz Kinilaw, yun nga lang nakasimangot parati mga staff nila and lalo na yung cashier..di man lang marunong magthank you nung nagbayad na kami..ako pa ang nagthank you.. =)
Anyways nag enjoy naman kami ng sobra..we were able to tour din the Hagimit Falls..rented two motorcycle for 200 each but we paid 250 kasi ang layo pala..
Sobrang nice ng Pearl Farm lalo na ng service ng mga staff..bitin ang 2 days and 1 night dun..
