I was stuck in the city for three weeks away from my usual weekend escapes. The busy days at work coping up with deadlines and obligations made me halt from being a weekend warrior for awhile. And so after those hard days? work, I simply needed a place to slow down and breathe fresh air ? a place where I can simply stay for the whole day, loosen up and chill out.
Bonhomie Leisure and Resort, Banaybanay, Davao Oriental
There?s no other place I can?t think of to give me that pleasant and relaxing stay than this resort I once passed by last summer ? the Bonhomie Leisure and Resort. With the help of the resort?s Operations Manager Ms. Marietta Andrade-Gantuangco, I traveled my way back to this place to do nothing but purely unwind for two days ? the most sought-after break I needed after three long weeks.
The Entrance
Barely three-hour drive from Metropolitan City of Davao, Bonhomie Leisure and Resort is the newest addition to the leisure destinations in the Davao Region. It is conveniently located along the national highway in Puntalinao in the Municipality of Banaybanay, Province of Davao Oriental.
The Resort Amenities
I was genially welcomed by the friendly staffs as I arrived at the resort. As they ushered me going my room, the unique architectural design of the place immediately tickled my interest. The fusion of modern and Asian architectural designs abound the place. They were meticulously planned and neatly constructed complimenting each design. The structure where the rooms are situated has an Asian-country theme. As I looked at it from the outside, these rooms vary from Thai House, Bali House, Chinese House and a modern Filipino House. This fusion ingeniously made this structure so unique and appealing ? designs I only see on the web with internet security. At Php 2,200.00 with breakfast for two, these rooms are worth the stay.
The Asian Inspired Rooms
Bonhomie Leisure and Resort takes pride being the first and the only first class beach resort in the town of Banaybanay frequented not only by locals but also from nearby towns of the provinces of Davao Oriental, Davao Del Norte and Compostela Valley. It features different facilities and amenities that guarantee comfort, fun and excitement for its valued guests. It has outdoor infinity pool for kids and adults, beautifully constructed open cottages, native beach huts, sports facilities and trimly manicured lawns.

On the top of these special features and amenities, Bonhomie Leisure and Resort takes pleasure having the finest white sand beach in the area facing the Davao Gulf. Resort guests who are up for swimming are protected by a perimeter of large boulders that serve as boundary at the beach. I felt so safe and secured swimming even at night on my first day.

Talking about good food, Bonhomie features an elegant open restaurant that serves delectable dishes at affordable prices. It is a dining experience with fresh air amid a charming tropical ambience. ?My favorites were Mixed Seafood Salad and Alfredo. Until now I still drool thinking how delectable they were. I also have to mention that breakfast at Bonhomie is just so delightful one would crave for more.

During weekends, resort guests are entertained by Acoustic Band that plays great music. Guests are welcomed to sing and dance with them. At night, the resort turned into a romantic rendezvous as different lights charmingly light up the whole environs. I can?t help but photographed every inch of it. Just beautiful.

Not known to all, the town of Banaybanay is home to the 8-hectare marine protected area the locals called Burias Islet. Contrary to the locals? description, Burias Islet is more of a vanishing white sand bar heaving with various virgin corals on the sides. It is also a marine sanctuary of endangered giant taklobo and budyong. Bonhomie Leisure and Resort arranges special boat trip to this sanctuary. At Php 1,000.00 good for 5 persons, guests can already enjoy the pristine waters and encounter the rich marine life of Burias Islet.

I am so used with travels packed with different day tours and adventures. But this time, I slowed down and chose to contain myself only at one place all day long. And it was really worth it. Staying for two days at Bonhomie Leisure and Resort is like savoring the privacy and the luxury of true tropical leisure destination. Indulging oneself in an atmosphere of comfort and slow travel defines the essence what I called sweet staycation away from a real home.
