Coron [Thread 10]

[izzie7]

Next month na yung coron trip namin but wala pa kaming kahit anong reservations.. Wala na bang updates sa kakagaling lang ng coron? Marami ba talagang lamok? Hindi ba scary yung plane ride?

[huit]

^

marami siguro lamok kasi medyo lagi brownout dun although may mga generators ang mga hotels. bring ka na rin insect repellent lotion. As for the plane ride, hindi naman scary. depends siguro sa pilot. hehe

Hello mga sis, pa help naman please, balak kasi namin i-avail ang package ng Two Seasons, may kasama ng tour sa kayangan lake, twin lagoon, shipwreck at lunch, plus accomodations, and food (breakfast, lunch, dinner), and transfers.

Bale nasa 148,000 kaming tatlo.

Sulit ba yun, I mean, okay lang ba na hindi na namin makita yung ibang mapupuntahan sa coron?

I am so torn kasi, dahil balikbayan kapatid ko, gusto ko mag enjoy siya..

[brandi]

^ that expensive for 3pax sis???

[SnowBall]

^ ginto naman kasi ang presyo sa Two seasons haha sis. Mga 161,000 pala kung sa mountain bungalow, and 180,000 plus kung sa beachfront, nung tumawag ako sa office nila, yung sinabi ko kasing rate na yan eh yung nasa website lang nila.

Sabi ko sobra naman, parang nag amanpulo na kami LOL.

Kaya one night na lang kami two seasons, mapagbigyan ko lang kapatid ko, then yung 3 nights eh sa El Rio Y Mar.

medyo pricey din ang El Rio, pero mura mura naman sa Two seasons. Ang El Rio kasi eh nasa 17,100/pax for 3 nights stay, including the food.

First time namin sa Coron, sana mag enjoy kami.

[brandi]

^ay so it's a luxury resort pala napa Google tuloy ako. Never heard hahaha! Oo nga ang mahal nakita ko yung rates. Never been to Coron pa, prolly next year kaya wala pa ako masyado idea about this place. 😁

@SnowBall, Coron is my favorite place in the Philippines. that being said, sayang naman kung Kayangan Lake, Twin Lagoon at Shipwreck (which i assume is the Skeleton Wreck kasi yun yung malapit diyan sa Kayangan-Twin Lagoon area) lang mapupuntahan ninyo.

ang layo ng El Rio Y Mar, sis... malayo siya sa Coron. Coron is on the lower part of Busuanga. yung El Rio Y Mar ay nasa northeast part ng Busuanga... so when you stay at El Rio Y Mar, dun lang talaga kayo, hindi kayo makakapag-gala sa Coron area.

pero kung yun yung trip niyo, then go ahead. sayang lang kasi sana makapunta man lang kayo sa Banana Island and especially Lusong Coral Garden - the best for snorkeling ang Lusong. pero that is kung mahilig kayo sa snorkeling - pero yun kasi talaga ang charm ng Coron.

@Brandi:

oo sis, pang mayaman siya, eh kami nakiki yaman lang kunwari hahahaha. Balikbayan kasi kapatid ko, siya naman gagastos LOL.



@Travelchic:

thank you so much sis, may ma rerecommend ka bang hotel na maganda na mapupuntahan namin yang mga nabanggit mo sis? Mahilig sa snorkeling ang kapatid ko kaya super okay ang nabanggit mo... please reply sis.. thank you so much.

[brandi]

^ano ka ba sis, minsan ganyan din ako. Nagttry ako luxury resort for a day just to experience the place hahaha then for the rest of the nights, sa ibang hotel na.

[meimei]

^^sis, as long as you're based in Coron town or in the beach resorts near the Coron area, mapupuntahan niyo yan. Wag lang kayo sa super layo like El Rio Y Mar and Club Paradise, hehe.

Two Seasons is w/in Coron area and in fact nadadaanan sa tour na Banana-Malcapuya-Bulog Dos. I mean syempre di nagdo-dock sa Two Seasons mismo ang tour but in the sandbar near it. May snorkeling area kasi dun.

Since you'll only try Two Seasons for a night, the rest of the time just get a good hotel in town, like Asia Grand View. Walang beachfront nga lang sa town, pero kasi dun talaga magandang base for tours.

Basta make sure you include the Lusong Coral Garden in your itinerary.

[bachoi]

May nakapagstay na po ba sa inyo sa Coron Ecolodge and Casa Coron Hotel? Aside from Corongaleri, may masasuggest pa po ba kayong agency. Thanks.

[SnowBall]

@Brandi

apir sis hahaha.


@Meimei

thank you sis for that sinabi ko nga yan sa kapatid ko kaso sa el rio y mar talaga gusto kaya bahala siya.




nagpa book na ako Two seasons for a night lang 43,010 binayaran ko full for a beachfront bungalow. kaming tatlo na yun. 2 adults 1 kid.

then booked na rin a Cedar Cabana sa  El Rio Y Mar, paid 45,000 for the 3 nights and 4.days stay including the 6 full board meals.

yung El Rio Y Mar they offer Coron Island Tour yung pupuntahan ang Kayangan Lake etc. Its 6,500 per person so mga nasa 18k kaming tatlo.

I computed it at least tipid pa din kami ng 60k kesa sa kinuha ko package ng Two seasons hehe.

Jan. 6 to 10 kami.

[brandi]

Enough kaya 3d/2n stay kasi plan ko next year with my family. 😁

[meimei]

^bitin yun. Kami 5D/4N para merong 3 full days ng tours.

[brandi]

^thanks sis!

[michimorada]

mga sis,

May contact ba kayong boatman? penge po contact nos. Yun dati ko contact na si kuya jong eh 2010 pa, tee hee!!

Fiance and I will be spending our honeymoon in Coron on June 2015. We were supposed to take a private tour with accommodation in Sunzen Coron but it costs 11,650 per person now.

Ayun sa pagbabasa ko dito, I changed my mind.  Mas mura kase if we join a tour na lang, okay lang naman samen if may mga kasama sa tour. We booked na lang in Sunzen Coron 4D/3N worth 8850 php in total with breakfast na.

For the tours, we plan to have the following in Coron Galeri.

Inclusions:
Licensed Tourist Boat with Lifevest and First Aid Kit,
Entrance Fees, Tour Assistant on Board, Picnic Lunch with Fruit & Drink

Coron Island Ultimate Tour (Tour B-1)   Php 650/pax
Destinations: Kayangan Lake, Twin Peaks Reef, Hidden Lagoons, Bulungan Beach, CYC Island, Coral Eden

Sun, Sea & Sand Island Escapade Tour ( Tour -C) Php 950/pax
Destinations: Malcapuya Island (Option to add Banana Island & Bulog Is. P250/pax) - we'll add na lang para mapuntahan pa yung 2 islands 

Coron Town Tour ( Tour A)    Php 550/pax
Destinations: Souvenir Shops, Cashew Nut Producers, Tapyas Viewdeck, Coron Baywalk, Maquinit Hot Springs
*** By A/C Van (Landtrip) with Snacks & Drinks Included - DIY ko na lang sana pero since honeymoon naman namen and looking for comfort na rin, pwede na rin to for us. 

Nung ni-compute ko all in all 14k lang instead of 23k, wala nga lang van transfers to and from airport.   Saan ba ako makaka-rent ng van na RT and how much kaya?

Okay lang naman sumama sa ibang tours no? Kasama na rin siguro snorkeling gears? Sa mga naka-try po sa Coron Galeri, okay lang ba service nila? Need ba email or pwede rin sila kahit WI? Kase I'm thinking of checking rin Coron Wonders. 

Sorry ang dami ko questions, but thanks sa mga sasagot. 

[dazzle]

hello sis, pa arrange mo na lang transfer mo sa hotel niyo 150/pax lang naman one way yung van.

ok naman sumali sa group tours yung sa amin kase 5 kami so automatic na private tours na sa amin nagbook kami sa nice in paradise. super ok yung boatman nila and tour guide namin tapos masrap din yung food nila

yung snorkeling gear di pa included add ka pa ng 150/pax.

[annasui]

^ Thanks sis! I inquired with Coron Galeri 100 php lang rent snorkeling gear/day and yun nga, walk in na lang daw a day before the tour to confirm na sasama kame. 

Ang problem ko lang di kame makaka walk-in a day before nung planned town tour namen, hmm.

[kitten^]

I'm here in Coron and late lagi ang Corongaleri sa binigay nila na itenerary. Supposed to be 8:15 alis namin for island tour and as of writing wala paren yung mag to-tour. Private tour pa naman ang inavail ko.
