Santiago Bay Garden & Resort with Traveloka

Last updated on November 6th, 2017 at 06:03 pm

In this modern time, there are a lot of options for us to choose when we want to check the whereabouts of a certain place, travel diaries and blogs are the best of resources for this information. Social media is also a good avenue to get information of a certain place. The rising popularity of travel apps is also a good means to check for reviews and feedback and it also allows us to choose the best option for our travel needs.

I came across with the commonly used apps but I find convenience with using Traveloka during two of my recent escapade, the recent one was at the Island of Camotes.

Santiago Bay Garden & Resort

Santiago Bay Garden Resort is an island resort noted as one of the best  beach resort in the island of Camotes. The resort overlooks the long shoreline of Santiago Bay and one is one of the best place to get a glimpse of sunrise and sunset in the island.

  1. This is so nice. I’ve never been to Camotes, ever since, but it was great to read on this article because I gained a lot of information to go there especially to Santiago Bay Resort. The good thing about this modern time is we have various apps in Google App or in iStore where we can download apps that can help us to travel, or can be our mobile tour guide rather than hiring someone. Good read! Great Job Kuya! 🙂

  2. I’ve never been to Camotes. Duol ra man unta haha. Thanks for this post. Will definitely visit this beautiful island one of these days. Always naay deal sa Traveloka ang Santiago hehe

  3. This is something na wala pa nako na visit but really want to! I’ve also tried using Traveloka and I liked it, pero wala ko nadayon book kay I changed my mind about the hotel. Hehe. Ka nice sa infinity pool oi.

  4. Yay ma try nga soon!
    Infairness, nice pod ang Traveloka daghang barato kapilian.

  5. I’ve heard of Traveloka before! I really don’t travel often so I didn’t wanna download something I wouldn’t use so often. Maybe I should give it a try!

  6. Never been to Camotes and I would love to go there. When it comes to apps, i have used the competitor apps but I might give traveloka a spin the next time I decide to travel.
