Pearl Farm Resort, Davao
There are no pearls cultured in the Pearl Farm, which is the first thing I discovered when I got there. There’s a fish farm in the middle of the sea on the way to the Pearl Farm, but there are no pearls. Before I went there, I always had this notion that pearls are being cultured in the Pearl Farm. Not that it matters, anyway, because you go there to enjoy the resort.
From Davao City, we had to take a ride to a hotel-pier. This is where we’ll take a boat towards the Pearl Farm, which is located at Samal Island, some 30 minutes away. You could buy pearls at the pier, but they’re from the rest of Mindanao, not from the Pearl Farm.
When you see beautiful cottages upon lining the white beach, you know you’ve arrived at the Pearl Farm. The view is spectacular and there’s plenty to see, except the pearls. If it’s irritating to hear about me looking for the pearls, it’s just my way of stressing the point that the jewel is the place itself, where you could relax and enjoy nature at its best. Enjoy the white sand, the clean sea water, the cool swimming pools, the gentle breeze, the fresh food and the great hospitality.
