Resorts World Manila

Resorts World Manila

     It was Saturday night that my friends and I decided to have some fun at Resorts World Manila.  It is a luxury casino resort just across the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) Terminal 3.  Also a sister resort to Resorts World Genting - Malaysia and Resorts World Sentosa - Singapore.

     Today, there are eight hotels.  The all luxury hotel Maxims Tower, the 5-star business hotel Marriott Hotel Manila, Holiday Inn Express, Belmont Hotel, Hilton Manila, Savoy Hotel, Sheraton Manila, and Hotel Okura Manila.

     The Newport Mall features high end boutiques at ground floor.  It also houses The Newport Performing Arts Theater.  At the second floor there are many restaurants to dine in, with phenomenal dishes by world class culinary experts.  Then you can shop at Face Shop, Charles & Keith, and Mango at third floor.  And watch your favorite movie in comfort and luxury at Newport Cinemas located at fourth floor of the mall.

     My favorite is at Cinema 1 wherein you sit on reclining chairs, has enclosed private cubicles, unlimited popcorn and drinks, and even a butler service.  I feel like a princess here!  At Cinema 3 you can view the movie in Dolby 3D technology.  While at Cinema 2 and 4 for premier viewing.

     At the Casino, we enjoyed the night playing slot machines.  There are so many slot machines to play.  Even the table games are full.  In the middle is the Bar 360 where the live band and entertainers perform.  So when you get tired playing, just sit and ordered some drinks here at Bar 360.

     Thumbs up to Resorts World!  It feels like you've traveled to Macau.  We had so much fun and definitely will come back for more!

Sagada, Banaue, and Baguio

     My summer get-away for 2010 is quite different.  Why I said so?  Normally I go to beautiful beaches in the country to feel the summer heat of the sun.  This time we explored the Cordillera.      From Baguio to Sagada, we passed the paved and non-paved roads and a never ending curved roads.  Though it took us 4 hours to reach Sagada, the trip was still worthwhile as we traversed the top of Cordillera’s spectacular range of mountains, some mini rice terraces, a river beside a rice farm, and surely a different sight to please your eyes. Trekking and Caving at Sagada April 1, 2010     After a long trip, we arrived in Sagada before noon.  During that time, the town was packed with foreign and local tourists, so it took us some time to look for accommodation.  We booked at Green House Inn at a cheap price of Php 500 per night.      As we walked down the main road leading to the caves, we dined first in one of the best restaurant in Sagada at Yoghurt House.  They served us wit

Revisiting the Spectacular Banaue Rice Terraces

Banaue Rice Terraces (First View Point)         After 9 hours of travel, we arrived in Banaue, Ifugao at 7:30AM.  Still tired and hungry from a very long trip, we rest for a while at Green View Lodge and had our breakfast.      Green View Lodge is a meeting point for backpackers.  The restaurant was packed with backpackers from all over the world.  We even shared a table with Delfina, a French lady who works at Puerto Princesa, Palawan.  Since, my officemate is very friendly and has a sense of humor; she never failed to amuse Delfina.      After a satisfying meal at Green View, we rented a private vehicle to take us to Banaue Rice Terraces Viewpoint, Bay-yo Rice Terraces, and Sagada.  A group of foreign backpackers from Germany, New Zealand, U.S.A, and Australia joined us.      First stop at Banaue Rice Terraces, my second visit to this place, it still amazed me to see the beautiful rice terraces built by Ifugao tribes 2,000 years ago.  There are at least three view point

Cebu City Adventure

     Welcome to Cebu City!      It was raining when I arrived in this city on March 14 in the morning.  The airport metered cab took me to the hotel, where my friends booked it one week ahead.      I checked in at Casa Rosario Hotel located at 101 F. Ramon Aboitiz St., Cebu City.  For only Php 1,200 a night it can accommodate up to 3 persons.  The room is nice, clean, newly painted, and air-conditioned.  Location is near from the main road Maxilom Avenue where you can ride public jeep to take you where you want to go.  Also, it’s so easy to get a cab in front of the hotel.  There are coffee shops, convenience stores, and restaurants nearby.  Banks are just a few steps away.  Everything is just so close.      While waiting for my friends to arrive from Davao, I went first to Ayala Center by asking the Cebuano on how to go there the way the locals do.  I was able to save money because of that.      There are big shopping malls like SM, Gaisano, and Ayala Center.  But Ayala Cente
