CHECKING IN:: HOF GORIE SAMAL ISLAND
Hof Gorie was one of amusing resort in Samal Island (kaputian) located in the province of Davao del Norte in Mindanao. A ten minute ferry ride from Davao City. Samal Island pristine beaches make it a popular vacation spot.
Experiencing a day full of errands I can still manage to find way to enjoy the summer here in Philippines. We planned to go to Pearl Farm actually, but unluckily we had problem for bookings. So we decided to stay at Hof Gorie, nearby of Pearl Farm.
If you guy's cant afford pearl farm beach resort, Hof Gorie is the good alternative option. As we entered to the Hof Gorie wharf their staffs well greeted us and they serve fresh juices, cold face towel for you to freshen up. As we go through we had our personal butler who will taking care of us during our stay. It was a great service indeed and I had never been received such a good service at any other resort that I've been to.
We stayed at higher grounds, which they called round huts and I swear we had the nicest view. I adore how the architecture came up with this idea, constructed almost full of wood. The room was full air-condition they also provide television and mini refrigerator, the motif and space of the room was just perfect for two.
Few guests who were checked in from the day we arrived until our last stay. Were the only one who occupied the pool, it seems like we rented the entire pool for us.
You will be amaze by the view at the highest peak of the resort with 274 steps from the lower ground.
It was a bit disappointed, the resort seems not that much developing their beach unlike any other resort they have the best beaches has to offer. Overall we are having a great time, the place was clean, peace and quiet, staff were very approachable.
