This villa is another great spot in the resort! If you want to stay in a villa, make sure you request for Villa 13. It is the only villa with DIRECT ACCESS TO THE BEACH! You cannot imagine how valuable that is in the resort. Since the place is very big, the beach is quite far from the villas and rooms. So this villa is the BEST! It has two bedrooms so it is perfect for a family, a hut outside where you can eat outdoors and a patio. BEAUTIFUL!
As you go out of the living room- you see your pool and then the view of the beach
Lounging chairs on the side of the pool and shower
At an angle- the pool looks like it is connected to the beach!

I requested for a tour to see the Presidential Suite…..It was beautiful!!! Even if the resort is beautiful as a whole, this suite is a place you would not want to leave either…no need to leave the resort and definitely no need to leave this villa…
Master Bedroom
From the garden there are stairs going up to the 2nd bedroom which is a separate bungalow all together
Leading to a hut on top of the mountain
On the way up is the entrance to the 2nd bedroom
Hut on the top
With a beautiful view

I was able to take a peek at the new Shangri-la in Boracay. Of course, Shangri-la never fails to live up to its name and reputation. It was beautiful! I heard that there are 1,700 staff manning the resort…not to mention 170 security guards around the area guarding the guests. It is an island on its own…peaceful and quiet. Be prepared to stay in this resort and only in this resort to relax, enjoy and have a peaceful vacation..as it is a beautiful island on its own
When you arrive in the airport they take you to their own port….
Where they greet you warmly…..
….and serve you some refreshments and goodies while you wait for your luggage and the boat to arrive and bring you to the island
View as you approach the resort…
Tree Top villas which I heard are very beautiful! and you can already imagine the view
Because the resort is very big, golf carts are provided to take you around especially if you are staying in a villa
Beach which is semi-private as it still shares with some of the nearby resorts
Lobby
Night shots of the main building and lobby which I thought was beautiful
Health Club
They have this Science and Information Center which showcases the living things around the island
Resort Shop
A bigger Adventure Zone for the kids
An Entertainment Center with board games, Chess, Ping Pong, Karaoke room, Billiards, Basketball and many more
This is the Deluxe Room which is part of the main building 
The lowest level opens up to the garden

It was so nice to meet Maryrose and Liza, owners of Cake Avenue. They are also Assumptionistas 🙂 I always pass by their shop which is under the overpass on my way from Power Plant Mall but I never get to stop. Finally I featured them in the Baker’s Dozen ( Baker’s Bozen Celebrates Valentine February 11, 2009 ) and loved their Valentine offerings. They told me that they started this business because aside from being good friends, they have one thing in common….. they love to cook and bake! 🙂
I tried their new product – Brazo de Yema!! YUMMY!!!!!! It is like brazo de mercedez but yema inside – a different textur. They have it also in sugar free.
One of their best sellers too
And this is their BEST BEST SELLER! 🙂 I tasted it and it is really really good!!! A MUST TRY!! I thought that my Lola’s cook was the only one who could bake the BEST Food for the Gods, but apparently, I have tried a few good ones already
This is their latest collection of pastries – SUGAR FREE!!
