Besaid
First Arrival: Arrived here through boat, was met with a lot of friendly villagers. They even made me a necklace out of the island's many flowers.
Ambience: The hotel's exterior was quite nice. Nothing very artificial, could see flowers and trees growing around coupled with a natural fountain.
Room: One of the points that HAS to be highlighted. It has a beach cum nature style design. Wooden floor, bright colored wallpaper and lots of windows. The room is very bright and it makes you feel relaxed… The furniture here is pretty nice too, a wooden bed and some rattan chairs overlooking the balcony. The bathrooms are clean and even have an exotic look to it.
Hospitality: The hotel service people here are nice, very friendly to add. The local people here also possess the same traits.
Food: Besaid is primarily famous for its fish. Naturally I had to try it. I ordered it and was very surprised. The fish was crispy on the outside whilst moist and succulent on the inside. It even had a tangy lemon flavor to it. You see, Besaid is a agricultural island and thus fruits and fruit juices are used in practically every dish.
Attractions: Signed up for a nature trail, was quite fun to walk in the morning. We hiked all the way to the beach and had a swim. Very refreshing.
Price: 1000 gil per night.
Overall: This place is exotic, fun and a great place for relaxation. The 1000gil is DEFINITELY worth it!
