This was probably my 6th or 7th (and final) Vikings venture. Up until this outing, this used to be…read moreone of my favorite restaurants in Davao. Other than the cake selection, everything was mediocre, poor or unavailable. They used to have a very good offering of American dishes--not any more. The 'Italian' offerings were laughable. The good news is that I did not overeat! I had a couple San Miguels--best part of the meal! Staff is just plain rude. This is not a welcoming place for non-Filipinos...period. Pretty sure that I was the only Caucasian there--now I know why. They advertise senior pricing, but this only applies to Filipinos. Really? WOW! This unwritten policy is shamelessly disclosed, if you ask, when the bill arrives. There are lots of good restaurants in Davao that welcome your business, regardless of one's skin color.

Be a viking when it comes to eating!…read more I can say its a bang for buck buffet where you can stay for around 3-5 hours, that would be enough time to taste every cuisine and drinks. The only thing that will not make it a 5 star is that there are times certain food is not available. I know lunch and dinner is different set of menu though there are still excellent viands missing so every experience will be different, it wont really ruined your experience its just some standard things a 5 star food service should practice. prices ranges from 550 pesos - 800 pesos Some tips, they have a wide range of promo so better take advantage of it since this is more expensive buffet. From birthdays to graduation they have a promo for it. Book in advance there are times the buffet can be full.

Pearl Farm Beach Resort - Accommodations

My extended family of nine enjoyed a two-night, three-day stay at Pearl Farm Beach Resort. I had…read morevisited over ten years ago with my family when they still offered day passes, and I loved it then. This time, we booked Villa 5 on Malipano Island. Malipano Island is a private island located just across from the main island and is accessible by a short boat ride. It features three or more villas, at least two private beaches, a public pool, as well as its own dining area and bar for guests staying on Malipano Island. If you book a villa on Malipano Island, you have access to the main island. However, if you book accommodations on the main island, you have little to no access to Malipano Island. Our villa featured a spacious open-air living room with stunning views of the beach/ocean, three bedrooms with a total of five beds, three full bathrooms, and one half bath. While I appreciate the open-air concept of the living room, we mostly stayed in our bedrooms to keep cool and avoid mosquitoes. During the day, we were either out on the beach or at one of the resort's many pools. Kayaks and paddle boards were available and included in our package. The grounds are beautiful, clean, and well kept for the most part. However, during low tide, you can see the trash on the beach, which turned us off. I actually didn't get in the water during low tide for fear of getting a skin reaction or getting sick. The food is excellent at both islands. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner are all served buffet-style featuring a wide variety of traditional Filipino food options from meat to seafood to veggies. The service is impeccable. Every staff member we encountered was super friendly and helpful. I would still recommend Pearl Farm. Just keep an eye out for trash on the water during low tide.

Pearl Farm was highly recommended to us and is apparently the Maldives of the Philippines. The…read moreviews were definitely breathtaking and the white sand beach was beautiful. The water was so clear and pristine. The boat ride from Davao to Pearl Farm is about 45 minutes. We were lucky because the weather was perfect when we went and the waters were not choppy. We stayed for one night in the Malipano Villa, located on Malipano Island which is a short boat ride from the main resort. The private island consists of seven ocean front villas and has its own beach and swimming pool. There was also a restaurant, but it wasn't open unfortunately. There was only one other family staying at the time so it was super quiet. You can literally hear the waves and birds chirping from your bedroom. It was a bit disappointing as the villa was a bit run down for the price we paid (minus one star). I definitely think it would benefit from a renovation. When you walk in to the villa, your eyes are greeted to a fully open lanai with a beautiful ocean front view. The lanai had a seating and dining area. I didn't care too much for the open lanai because it invited critters in to our villa so we had to make sure all of our doors were closed. The master suite with king bed and second guest bedroom with two twin beds were on the first floor, a spa bathroom on the second floor, and a third bedroom with three twin beds on the third floor. The spiral stairs were very narrow and it was difficult bringing luggage upstairs. I believe the villa can accommodate up to eight guests. I appreciated the cold a/c in all of the bedrooms and the filtered water dispenser. All of the staff we encountered were helpful and friendly. There are different water activities available at a cost. My family opted to do jet skiing and had a lot of fun. The lunch and dinner buffets were okay (traditional Filipino food). Their dining area is open and birds kept flying in to peck at the bread during lunch. There were also fruit flies on the fruit. They should do a better job and keep the food covered. We enjoyed the snacks and cocktails served during appetizer hour. We opted to have breakfast delivered to our villa and the food was good. We especially enjoyed the sikwate (hot chocolate) that I dipped my pandesal in. Upon check out, we were charged 400 pesos (almost $8 USD!!) for a small can of Pringles that was in the room next to the bed stand of the master suite. Mind you that was the only snack in the villa so I thought it was complementary. Ridiculously expensive! All in all, I'm glad we had the opportunity to stay at Pearl Farm. This would be the place to stay if you're looking for a place to relax and enjoy beautiful ocean views.
