The Honeymoon Suite at Barefoot White Beach Resort in Moalboal, Cebu, Philippines

So we are now ensconced in a lovely place right on the water.  There have been activities around here, like the governonr of Cebu and all the mayors visiting the resort almost next door, a huge contingent of kids who checked in for a night last night, and many, many friendly Filipinos saying, "Hello" [we want you to buy this...].  The waters here are the clearest you ever wanted to see, especially in the morning, and there is a wonderful place down the way to eat.  We could have come on this mode of transport:

but we really needed a driver who knew where the resort was.  It is, indeed, down this path which does not list it [it does, of course, list a funny diving group called Aquaholics]:

Inside the resort, you finally know where you are:

And now, our room, the only part of the resort directly at the edge of the sand.  Here is our dining table and "rest area:"

great kitchen with utensils when you ask for them!

and a great sitting area

and a beautiful bed

 

and a nice set of storage places

nice bathroom

We are served beautifully by Arnell (on left) and Abon (on the right):

and we can work on the internet in the villa

Hi April,
Boracay was a fun place but definitely touristy. It's more of what people think Bali would be like (but cleaner, less spread out, better restaurants, smaller).
