| Our contribution to the recent Philippine tourism marketing campaign |
10 blissful years of marriage saw us at Sheridan Beach Resort, Sabang, Palawan. Anne got a great promo rate from Deal Grocer in the nick of time and we flew to this paradise a few days after our anniversary to escape the busyness of life.
Sabang is the gateway to the famous Puerto Princesa Underground River. Some tourists who'd wish to visit the famed landmark would book in Puerto Princesa then take a day trip to Sabang port then ferry off to the river for the adventure, then take the same long journey back. But it's a good thing Anne found a great resort in Sabang itself so we just walked to the port on day-two! We didn't even know there was a texting contest about the Underground River which ended days after we left, so we hopefully we contributed to us winning the slot as one of the next world wonders! Go Philippines!
Sheridan was one of our best resorts ever! Modern & fully packed with great amenities, scenic spots, modern architecture, and a large pool right smack in the middle of the resort! Spa, pools, bars, gym, FREE WIFI, etc! The pool is a stone's throw away from the beach, thus adding to the awesomeness of our choice. It's like a large boutique hotel.
Journey with us as we relive our adventure through the picture collection below...
