Superb Resort with spectacular views...
exclusivity, views, setting
6
The Pearl Farm Beach Resort is truly an amazing vacation getaway. From the manicured grounds to the amazing views offered from practically every room you simply can't go wrong with this resort. The Samal House's are in a class of their own. You are quite literally sleeping on top of the ocean in your house on stilts!!! The only downside of the resort is the policy of not being able to bring food with you. And since there is only 1 restaurant with a rather limited and overpriced selection of food choices this can be rather bothersome to some.

The best island resort in Davao
Aquasports, clean beach, clean pools, good food.
9.3
Right from the airport, everything was taken care of, from land and boat transfer at the wharf to the island resort. The resort is well maintained. Aquasports are available with qualified staff. Clean pools and beach. Good food and drinks with reasonable price. More choices on buffet. Movement inside the resort is easy since the hotel has multicabs plying the hotel winding roads.
Hotel Feature Tip:
Motorized aquasports must not be missed.

Relaxing stay
Clean and well maintained resort
8
The resort is old but well maintained.
The staffs are accommodating and very friendly.
Food is affordable.
We tried the Spa, and the ambiance was perfect. However, the spa specialist is not well trained. Need to inform her every so often to make the pressure harder. She even had long nails that left marks on my arms.
On our way back to the city, the waves are horrible. We were wet but there's no towel available.
Over all, the experience was perfect. Will recommend to people who wishes to have a quick and relaxing getaway.

Nice resort with limited goof choices...
location, serenity, privacy
8.3
i would definitely recommend this resort! airport and boat transfer are inclusive in the package. we were welcomed with drinks and shuttle going to our samal house. breakfast buffet comes with the package as well as the island trip to malipano. look for boy hes so accomodating and kind. all the staffs are courteous and accomodating! we really had a great time in this resort! see it for yourself) the only downside is the food choices which are quite limited and expensive as well.
Hotel Feature Tip:
If youre travelling with your partner,i would recommend the samal house that is located in between the two island, we stayed at samal house 18, Its a perfect location to walk going to both shores. And u have a veranda like space wherein you can see the wide sea and the sun

One of the Most Native Beach Resort in the Phils.
Excellent view of the beach and the infinity pool

let me start at the restaurant service, they are very accommodating. we can also figure out the tradition of mindanao because of the show at the restaurant. the buffet is very very good! all the foods taste good, especially the seafood, they are very fresh and the dessert was very great! i can't say nothing but great! while at the place itself, it is very nice place i really enjoyed the beach because of the white sand and we felt like we are the only people at the beach resort. the "manong driver" is very accommodating, anytime we want to explore the area, his there to guide us and he's the one who took us pictures. i really enjoyed my stay there and it is very relaxing.

My husband and i enjoyed our overnight stay in the resort. It has the biggest room we ever had compared to different resorts were been like in palawa, bohol and boracay. It also has the best resort food. Despite that there were many tourists during our stay, we still felt the privacy...it also has lovely scenery...unfortunately, a staff when i asked where we could get beach towels, he told us that he does not know and that the pool will be closed soon. But my husband noticed that it was only 3:00 pm. So, i decided to call ylang ylang spa and the staff there immediately delivered to our room the beach towel that i requested. If not for that incident, i would have given pearl farm a perfect score. But now i would only give it a rating of 4 stars with 5 stars being the highest. Will surely recommend the place to friends and relatives. We are also planning to return to the resort for a much loner stay.
