As a celebration of our anniversary, my husband surprised me the day before our anniversary that we are going to Boracay. And I'm like, "What? Are you serious? Why didn't you tell me earlier?". He said he didn't want to tell me at all, but if he didn't tell me, who will fix our check-in bags and carry on's? Hahaha : ) A few hours left until our flight and I haven't started packing our things yet! Waaahhh!
We left home early because my husband said our flight was 6am bound to Kalibo, via Philippine Airlines at NAIA 2. Another surprise, surprise me. As we were on our way to the airport, our route changed, instead of going to NAIA 2, we headed to Domestic Airport along Domestic Road and I told my husband we are going the wrong way, but he ignored me!
And now my head is going crazy, I really don't know what is going on. Again, another surprise! As we entered the airport we have to present our boarding pass and valid I.D. I told my husband that I'm gonna need my boarding pass, and so he gave it to me. I was shocked that our flight was bound to MRQ via ZestAir. At the back of my mind I was thinking "What the Fwig is MRQ?" Marinduque? What are we gonna do there?
As soon as we checked-in our luggages it's really official that we are going to Marinduque. I didn't stop making "kulit" of my husband until he told me what is going on. The only info that he told me is we're going to some place in Marinduque and we're going CAMPING! WHAT?! All the stuff that I brought was for THE beach, I even brought a swimsuit. Now you're telling me we're going camping! I was really frustrated at my husband at that time!
As soon as we landed, I saw some staff from Bellarocca waiting for their guest. I've heard about Bellarocca somewhere in the web, and I know that the accommodation there was indeed very expensive. I know that we are going camping so I didn't expect that we were going to Bellarocca at all.
Then one of the staff of Bellarocca came to us and helped us with our stuff. I almost cried! Am I dreaming? I was so overwhelmed at that moment. Mr. Smile won't leave my face! Hahaha
We had an hour and a half shuttle ride and about 10 minutes boat ride.
I was so flattered when we arrived. The staff were welcoming us with their wonderful song and they put leis on us. aaawww!
After we checked-in, these yummy treats were awaiting us!
The bathroom was so clean and huge. There's a large bathtub, cubicled toilet, spacious hot and cold shower. The toiletries were made by Molton Brown.
Oh my, the bed is heaven! I wish we had a bed this big!
The Snack Bar was so expensive. P100 for a canned soda!? P100 for a small pack of mix nuts!?
The room was very spacious! It's so spacious that you can accompany the whole family!
; )
The view from our room! I think they got the idea from Santorini.
Lounging here at the lap pool
There are a lot of things to do here like kayaking, snorkeling, etc. And if you're tired of outdoor activities, they also have indoor activities like foosball, billiards, etc. You can all use them for free.
Look at this breathtaking infinity pool. It's a paradise!
For me the food was average, nothing special, and it's expensive.
Who wouldn't have a massage here? It is so peaceful and relaxing.
The staff can take you for a tour around the island via golf cart. They also have a helipad. How cool is that?
Our trip here at Bellarocca was really romantic and a truly unforgettable experience.
Thank you so much to my husband for this remarkable adventure.
Like what they said, "If something didn't go the way you're expecting, something better will come your way!"
