When we think of Guimaras, we think of Villa Igang Resort.
Five years ago was my first to experience the beauty of a secluded beach resort in Guimaras. It was formerly named as Puerto del Mar. At a glance, you will really notice that Villa Igang is a more privy resort compared to the neighboring beaches.
This is a 34-hectare of nature-favored domain; has three coves, a picnic center called The Mooring Cleat, beach cottages, convention hall, conference and game hall gift shop, recreation and sports complex; offers a variety of activities for tourists and vacationists such as swimming, picnicking, snorkeling, sailboating or island touring.
Before you reached the place you will be blown away by the sight of mangroves along the road and a body of water that looks like a lake.
It can be accessed through a 15-min boat ride from Iloilo City to Jordan Wharf and a 45-min jeepney ride from Jordan Wharf or a 1hour boat ride direct from Iloilo City.
The entrance fee is Php100 but that includes sightseeing and swimming. If you just want to take pictures just like we did, it will cost you Php20 and you get to enjoy even whole day of sightseeing as well as relaxing.
My second visit in the place was with my boss. We were the only guests in the resort and just like what I've said, It is best for relaxing. We stayed there overnight and it will only cost you Php700 for a cottage. As long as I can remember, the room is good for two and has a decent toilet. My boss is a frequent visitor there and we didn't have any problem when it comes to food. We bought pork and other bite to eat that time and she said we can have it cooked there for Php50 per kilo and that include the rice. Not a bad idea, right?
At night, we've had a nice and relaxing time to drink wine by the seashore, telling stories, and watching the stars.
I took my boyfriend last year for a whole day relaxing and sightseeing. We were not alone in the resort because we've met a foreigner couple. Of course, we bought some food and we have it cooked there again for our lunch. The staff was very accommodating and they really want your stay to be worthwhile. We ate our lunch by the seashore. We did enjoy taking photographs in the back side of the resort. It has a "mini ruins" and they said it is a good place for wedding. My boyfriend was really amazed of the sight and we even climbed on the top of gigantic rocks. It was a memorable trip for us.
Surely, we will keep on visiting Villa Igang soon.
