Acquaintance Party at Green Isle Resort

Last weekend, we had an acquaintance party at Green Isle Resort in Samal Island, (Island Garden City of Samal). The resort is not as famous as the other resorts in Samal but we chose the place as a venue because the owner of the resort is a former colleague and so we were able to get a discount for the payment in using the place. We have never been to the place as well, so for a change, we had our acquaintance party at Green Isle Resort.

Green Isle is just a medium-size resort and its developments are still on going. They are constructing now a new building in addition to the existing beach house and a number of closed cottages made of native materials. In the lower portion, near the seashore, there are a number of open cottages which is very cozy if you want to get closer to the beach. I love the fact that the place is generally cool. You don't feel the heat of the sun because there are still plenty of trees surrounding the place.

When we were there, we had the place exclusive for us which made me more appreciate the Green Isle Resort. The space is just fitted for us numbering about a hundred. We enjoyed a lot playing volleyball and a lot of parlor games.

I also brought with me my little girl and it was her first time to go to the beach after being prohibited by her surgeon after her operation for fear of infection. My little one is enjoying a lot, dancing with the videoke music, cheering together with some colleagues when each team were playing volleyball in the field.

We had our food catered by Green Isle. Our food consist of pork fillet, beef afritada, pancit, lechon and fruit desserts like watermelon and pineapple. We had so much fun. And I was very happy that my little girl was enjoying a lot too.

  4. We feel elated with what you shared about our resort. Thank you so much for making us part of your unforgettable bonding moments with your colleagues and some family members. Please come again. We hope to improve the place for your future visits. We envisioned it to be a place for group/family retreats, bonding and recreation and experience to commune with nature, thus, it is not being commercialized to prevent over-crowding the place. Thanks again.From Green Isles Beach Mgt.

Honestly, in my several years stay at UIC, this is the only time I really enjoyed the acquaintance party. I really had lots of fun cheering, laughing and giggling with friends. I love the fact that I was able to unwind and go out with people I knew so well.

  12. Hi there.After I saw some of the pictures and read the short messages it seems that I am convince that green isle beach resort is a wonderful family oriented place to stay for vacation and gathering.
    We are here in San Jose, California and for sure the next time we go home it's gonna be the first place to visit in our list.
    BTW, I am also advertising your resort to my Filipino co-workers here and showed to them the pictures.They were amazed to the beauty of it and they want to visit the place too. They also want to know if it's possible for them to buy a beach lot there.
    And lastly, I'm sure the management are awesome.
    See you soon....
