Amazing Views at Coco Grove Beach Resort in San Juan, Siquijor, Philippines
There are a lot of reasons to go to Siquijor. The roads are amazing for long boarding. The natural water holes are to die for. This place is rumored to sell love potions and for real!. And the best reason is an establishment that sprawls at least 800 meters of white sand beach surrounded by clear blue waters.
Coco Grove Beach Resort in San Juan, Siquijor, Philippines boasts to offer complete relaxation and rejuvenation. That with an abundance of natural tropical gardens, crystal blue seas with untouched marine life and unthinkable sunsets on a long sandy, white beach. Not convinced? Let's take a tour of my own experience with this resort.

To start, let's explore their beach. There you can find long stretches of white sand, and cool blue waters. So clear that they really look like God must have used Photoshop to create this wonderful piece of land.

The staff was superb! I cannot speak highly enough of all the staff. They work long hours. But always had a smile on their faces. And always had time to ensure that I was enjoying my stay in their lovely resort. The rooms were simply elegant. The rooms were lovingly designed in every detail. The warm colors immediately lifted up my mood. I felt like staying at some friend's artistic house. And not like staying in a hotel and not to mention the view though.

Kick back in the lap of luxury in the Coco Grove swimming pool surrounded by amazing flora and fauna. On the other side is the otherworldly beaches and impeccable weather. Plus a trip to the local bar with a few drinks in hand doesn't really sound too bad when lapping around in the pool. The curved pool, which snakes around building residences and is overlooked by the Great House, provides phenomenal views across the deep blue waters as far as the eye can see. Between laps, sip on a refreshing cocktail and toast to the good life.

I am utterly and irrevocably in love with Siquijor! It is one of those places where I can truly feel away from it all. Fresh, clean air. No huge buildings. A few cars that I can count with my one hand. Very friendly people. Quiet, clean, and virgin beaches. Affordable. Tranquil. And serene. I have been to the Mystical Island of Siquijor twice in my lifetime. Still, I want to go back to this place again and again. I guess, I’ll never get used to the charm and the peace and quiet this small Visayan island brings.
