Basking in the Sun Sea and Sand in Negros Occidental


Posted on April 1, 2008

Now that the summer season has officially opened, throngs of beach bums and sun worshippers are now rushing to the various beach resorts all over the country. While many still prefers to bask in the aquamarine waters of Boracay, there are still other spots in the Philippines that offer equally white sandy beaches and crystalline waters.

Jomabo Island Resort in Negros Occidental

One of them is the province of Negros Occidental. Aside from the moniker as the Sugar Capital of the Philippines, Negros Occidental also boasts of white sandy beaches especially along the northern and southern sections of the province. Various kinds of resorts are available depending on the budget. From the high-end island adventure thrills to the backpacker adventures.

Negros Occidental can be reached via plane or ship from Manila or Cebu and via fast ferry from Iloilo City. Bacolod City, the province’s provincial capital is the gateway to the numerous resorts scattered all over the Negros Island.

When in Bacolod, it is highly recommended to stay in the first and only boutique hotel - The Sylvia Manor. They guarantee excellent hotel service and a sumptuous in-house restaurant offers an eclectic dining experience for their guests. With rates that are just easy on the pocket, The Sylvia Manor is truly a great value for your money.
