Kiss the Sun

Cabaling Beach Resort


Location: Sitio Cabaling, Barangay, Jordan, Province of Guimaras in the islands of the Philippines.


How to get there? Via Philippines Airline, Cebu Pacific, and Air Philippines from Manila, 9 times daily from Iloilo City. There is also a daily boat trip from Cebu and 21 daily trips by fastcraft from Bacolod to Iloilo City. The Guimaras mainland is close to the Iloilo Harbour and reachable in 15 minutes by motorboat or ferryboat that service the island from 6am to 6pm daily. Travel time is from 5 minutes to 5 hours depending on how you wish to wonder around. For special arrangement, motorboats or pumpboats can be utilized to directly hop to Cabaling Beach Resort and also to visit other different islets.

We didn't take the boat ride and preferred commuting from Iloilo harbour to Guimaras, when we reached the island, we took a motorcycle ride to the place which cost us 300 php. Travel time would take 45 mins in total to get to the resort. After a grueling bumpy ride, you'd have to take a 5 minute walk to get to the entrance but this to me is a pleasant experience considering you'll have to get your feet wet as you would walk a white sand shoreline.







The place has complete amenities, and you don't have to worry about packing for food as they have a restaurant inside the resort. The place will surprise you,in a good way, with its features and structure.
The best part of this place is, it has an infinity pool that will give you a picturesque view of the sea and the city of Iloilo.








For the beach bums, the water will lure you into a laid back mood with its cool breeze and white sand. They also have a man made Jacuzzi on a nearby rock for a private a relaxing experience.





For us though, the highlight of the place is this beautiful bridge, withered by time but exhibits timeless beauty nonetheless. Salutation to the sun is best done in this place.














and if you get so enchanted by the place that you'd like to experience it on nightfall, they offer air conditioned rooms that rivals any hotel rooms in the island.


from 1 out of 10 I'd rate it as 7.5 but I'd like to go back to the place someday and spend the night there with my daughter and friends.
