A fast getaway experience.
It has been a tradition to Filipinos that during the season of Christmas, everyday should be celebrated. We value having fun and relaxation together with the family. No matter how many you are as long as no one gets left behind, then you can surely have fun and relax.
I'll give you some tips and tricks how to get there and how to survive the night.
But first let me give you their offers.

Family room good for 6 persons(6000php/120usd) per night
I gave you first the prices, so that you would be able to prepare yourself on how cheap the prices are.
watch out for some tips, on how to make it even more cheaper ;)
How to get there:
From Cagayan de Oro City, you just need to travel by bus, and it would just take you 30 minutes just to get to the place. Costs 120php or 2.4usd.
From Iligan City, you just need to ride a bus, and it would take 45minutes to 1hour to get there. Costs 130php or 2.6usd.
If you are a family, or you're with a whole bunch of friends, then you can just rent a private vehicle which will cost 3000php or 60usd, or rent a Public Utility Jeepney which will cost 2000php or 40usd.
As for our case, we are from Iligan and we have a private vehicle, so we just have to fuel it for 700php or 14usd.
What to bring:
Please bring cash, that's the most important thing, it depends on how many persons you're with.
Extra clothes:
●bikinis one piece or two piece
●trunks
●rush guards
●beach shorts
●tank tops
●pajamas

※Tips&Tricks #1:
Extra beds!! (RENT: the family room good for 6 pax, the room is so spacious that it can cater up to 20 people)
Food
●snacks
●beverages

※Tips&Tricks#2
Rice cooker & uncook rice(use it for dinner, pre cooked foods, will eventually get spoiled, so you have to be prepared with this, rice is essential to fullness)

Disposable gloves, plate, and spoon&fork.
Serving plates and serving spoons.
(Don't worry for coffee lovers they got it covered)
their restaurant is still under construction, so I can't really say if their food is cheap or expensive, but with the tip I gave, I can surely tell you that you can save a lot of cash.

●any meds needed if you're under medication

Come and Journey with Me!
traveling to gitagum, we rode three cars, as we are 26 people in total.
road trip with the family, and journeying together to the same destination is the best thing on earth.
our driver is so ready and on the go.
so these are the views you will see if you travel from Iligan City. It was a fun ride, actually we were so dependent with google map. The place is already registered so its actually very easy to access.
lagoon signage, finally we are so near.
we just have to go down and the straight ahead till we see the entrance.
I want you to see the premises, the area, the pool, and the buildings.
let's go to the room!
excited to see the room?
the room is so huge, this is the family room
the room inside the room, it's designated for the oldest couple.
I just want you to focus on the pictures, all of them are not edited, cause I want you to judge the area properly, and if you wanna go here, I can even be your personal tour guide.
the view from our balcony.
sunset and gazeebos!! So gorgeous ♡
hammocks! This makes the trip more relaxing. Imagine being on a hammock while enjoying the sea breeze. I really want you to try this. I promise the air is so clean, and the you can't see any trash floating on the sea.
the area is so reserved that you just wanna stay there forever.
groufie time!
incinerated the charcoal until all of them flare up, now you are ready to grill.
time to eat! Grilled pork and fish! Perfection.
time to enjoy the night, but ready your towel first, cause if you get out of the water, you can really feel the cold. (Sea breeze problem)
yup that's the situation we are in. (Everyone's snoring) *evil laugh
finally time to go home. (That's actually the front desk.)
one last fanily picture for the year!
Over all we paid 12000php or 240usd for just 1 night but it's good for 26 people.
For the last time, I just want you to realize the value of family. Cause at the end of the day, it's always about you and them.
Nothing compares to the joy you can achieve if you are with your family.
