Just a 2-hour drive from Davao City's downtown. The resort has a "Bunsod", a cottage build on stilts 25 ft. above sea water that guarantees privacy for guests. Once you're in bunsod, its just waters surrounding you. Great place for snorkeling, diving, nude sun bathing, swimming (try their slides), and fishing.
The road to ComVal (Davao del Norte) is good, with a good view of the mountain range. The resort boasts of its house on stilts called "bunsod". You can ride a pumpboat (during hightide), swim (it will probably take you around 20 minutes) or ride a regular fisherman's boat (bangka) to get there. In the bunsod, you have a breathtaking view of Samal Island, and waters surrounding you. Its the best hideaway from the crowded city!
