For our second day in Davao, we spent practically the whole day of my Birthday in Pearl Farm Beach Resort.
Since we were on a tight schedule and going to Pearl Farm is A MUST, we decided to get the Day Tour Package instead of the overnight package since we have to meet our Davao-based relatives for Dinner on the same day.
Day Tour Package (php2,500.00 / pax) includes:
- · 1 Lunch
- · Round trip boat transfers
- · Use of resorts selected facilities (swimming pool, beach area, tennis court, basketball court and game room)
Boat Transfer Schedule:

Wharf Out: 4:00 PM

WARNING: A photo loaded entry. I would've posted more pics for proof but there are just so many. So I just took the ones in my point-and -shoot camera. Sorry for some not-so-nice photos. It's hard to take blog-worthy pics while I'm enjoying the place while I can!

| Pearl Farm Marina Wharf. This is the place for checking in while waiting for our ferry to take us to Samal Island, where Pearl Farm is located. |
 |
| They gave us an orientation and overview of what are the things and activities that we can do during our Day Tour on the Island. There is another separate Island owned by Pearl Farm and we can go there for FREE! We just need to schedule it. |
 |
| On our way to Pearl Farm. I took a nap during the 45 minutes ferry ride. They provided us cutesy water drinks and when we're near the Resort Drop off, there were two jet ski riders providing us entertainment. Someone told me that it's Pearl Farm's strategy to make the guests look at the Jet Ski Riders because it takes some time for the ferry to position it self to the dock. |
 |
| View of the Landmark and the Samal Houses of Pearl Farm. We were welcomed with the nice staff who gave us welcome drinks the moment we arrived. |
 |
| Hello Pearl Farm! Finally we meet! |
 |
| There are really nice huts that's located by the pool that were strategically located. Can you see how clear the water is? I'm not even using a DSLR when I took this photo. I love their infinity pool as well, but the water is cold. I guess I'm just used to hot springs. |
 |
| Other side of the resort |
 |
| We roamed around the place and a golf car took us to the other side of the beach. I took a photo of some of the Samal Houses for rent. |
 |
| One of my favorite part - The Ylang Ylang Spa. The moment we arrived, my cousins and I immediately booked a body massage appointment. |
 |
| Day Tour Package includes Lunch Buffet. I took the photo of my Kuya's Platter! Haha! They have the most delicious Buffet I've had in years and the desserts are just scrumptious! |
 |
| Happy Birthday to Me! We stayed at Mandaya 14 for FREE! The Manager of Pearl Farm is so nice and accommodating, when he learned that we were a large group of 14pax and ran out of by-the-pool huts, he arranged a free room for us during the day! |
We were really lucky that we get to meet really nice people in Pearl Farm (regular customers) and gave us some of their spare cottages and tips on how we can request for extra accommodation.
Pearl Farm Notes:
Pearl Farm Notes:
- I would say: WE SHOULD HAVE GOTTEN THE OVERNIGHT PACKAGE!
- Free use of their beach towels.
- Ferry rides are by schedule.
- There are designated smoking areas.
- A ferry ride is free, we had to arrange it the moment we arrive because other guests would like to go to the separate Island as well.
- The cheapest whole body massage is Php 800. But since my cousins and I were running late due to whatever activities we had, we just had a back massage for Phpo 200.00! They're sooo nice!
- The Mandaya house that we stayed do not have a door for the rest room. I don't know why?
- They only have one golf car to take us around, but the short cut way to the Mandaya houses is beside the Spa.
- They offer other tour packages like the hill top package which my mom and aunts availed while we kids roamed around the place, ala-survivor Philippines! LOL!
- Pearl Farm offers package for honeymooners and the likes, it's best to take advantage of the package.
- The jetskis are for rent and we took home some sand samples from the separate Island. My sister and I have been collecting sand from every beach we went to ( EL Nido, Palawan, Boracay, Pagudpud - name it!) The guy in charge of the jetski took us for a nice ride in his jetski for free!
I was telling my friends when I came back that Davao did not struck me as hard as Cebu, but I would definitely go back to Davao for PEARL FARM RESORT reasons!
This place is PERFECT for honeymooners. I think I want to tag along with my Kuya when he goes back haha! Hello third wheel! But I am eyeing Bellarocca next for my destination.
