PUKA BEACH : the virgin side of Boracay

Aside from the beauty of Alta Vista de Boracay, this is one of the reasons why I wanted to stay in the famous hotel---PUKA Beach. It's my favorite spot in the island. I fell in love with in 2007. Perhaps my insecurity during that time worked in a strange way. Four years ago, I felt so…

ALTA VISTA de BORACAY : my dream accommodation

I was on a tricycle four years ago. We were from Bulabog area on our way to Puka Beach when a big construction on the hill of Yapak Boracay caught my attention.The structures are very imposing so you wouldn't miss it when you pass by.  It looked like a hotel to me but it seemed that t…

Was supposed to post about luxury accommodation 101 but since the Philippines has experienced 2011's worse typhoon yesterday I decided to revert to a food entry.Not  that all my readers are only Filipinos but I personally am not in the mood to talk about some comfortable hotel rooms…

BUGS GRILL BORACAY eat all you can buffet

We went to Boracay without researching anything. The fact that I was there a few years ago made me a little confident that at least I will not get lost in the area. But for sure a lot of things have changed for the past four years. Still, I didn't research about what's hot in the …

LOVI POE bath robe photos

My wife and I watched Zombadings last weekend.We thought we wanted a good laugh so we opted to see the Indie film.We were not disappointed. There are some poor characterizations and lapses in the story but forgivable for a low budget Indie movie. I didn't even bother to over analyze d…
