Bonhomie Escapade

By h3artinwander - January 17, 2020


Last August 2019, I and my friends decided to celebrate our birthday at the beach. It was not only a birthday celebration but also a time to bond, relax, chill and just have fun. We just want to disconnect from our daily routine and we feel like taking a break is what we truly deserve.

We decided to spend our short get away at Bonhomie Leisure and Resort. It is a popular resort destination in Banay-Banay, Davao Oriental not only during summer but all year round. It was recommended by one of my friend who have been there before. Thankfully, my friend is also kind enough to offer us their L300 van to transport us going to our destination! So it's was drawing no more!



From Davao City, it takes almost 3 hours going to Puntalinao, Banay-banay. You don’t have to worry about locating the resort since it was just along the highway.

The resort is really nice and well maintained. Their cottages are well-designed and really comfortable. It is very spacious and well-ventilated. There are a lot of things that you can do aside from swimming. You can play billiard, table tennis, volleyball, dart and chess. There is also swimming pool for kids and adults. They also have restaurant which serves short orders.

It has a white sand beach. However, I recommend to wear your slippers or swimming shoes when swimming since there are a lot of stones which might hurt your feet. They also provided a bamboo raft “gakit” for extra fun.

Day tour rates is at 100/head for adult and 80/head for children. Overnight rates is at 180/head for adults and 120/head for children. We stayed overnight and rented a cottage for Php 3,000 good for 10-15 persons. The cottage is clean however basic toiletries are not provided so better bring with you your personal toiletries. They also have a grilling area and sink for washing which is just beside the cottage.







Overall, the place is very relaxing. Perfect for those who want to take a break from the noise of the city. It is great for family bonding and chilling out with friends.
