Affordable Vacation Trip For Holy Week and Holidays at Samal Island Davao

Canibad Beach

When we hear of long weekends, holidays, and days off, we are always looking forward to spend time to rest, have fun, or bond with our family and friends. Holy Week is one of the times when people either do their penance or take a vacation. For those who are spending this time for vacation, everything is stress-free as there’s no need to file for vacation leave or be absent from work.

If you are planning a reasonably priced vacation just within or near Davao City, there are affordable beach resorts that could accommodate you and your travel buddies. Samal Island and Talicud Island are the top destinations for local and foreign tourists especially now that the Summer heat has started.

Here are 5 Affordable Vacation Spots you could choose from:

Kaputian Beach Resort

1.       Kaputian Beach Resort is the most affordable beach resort in Samal Island, just one ride from Sta. Ana Wharf via Motorized Pump boat.  The fare is 60php to Kaputian Wharf and a walking distance of about 10 minutes will lead you to this white sand beach. If you are not that prepared, food is not a problem as there are canteens/eateries inside and outside the resort.
Canibad Beach Resort

2.       CanibadBeach Resort is once called the secret paradise of Samal due to its distance which makes it isolated from the popular beaches of Penaplata. The place is located at Barangay Andanao,  one hour ride from Babak. You will have a very bumpy ride going to Canibad. In Canibad, people usually bring their tents as the place is not yet that developed.

Maxima Beach Resort
3.       Maxima Aqua Adventure is the best resort for water adventure. If you love to jump in the deep blue sea, this is the place for you. They have a diving board for you to experience jumping from 15 feet above the water. They also have a giant slide which people of different ages enjoy.
hagimit falls samal 

4.       Hagimit Falls is a perfect place to refresh after having your great time from the beach. This place is also one of the cheapest destinations in Samal Island. Entrance fee is only 20Php for you to enjoy Samal’s famous water falls.

5.       IslaReta Beach Resort is located at Talicud Island. The resort has its own boat operating the Sta.Ana-Davao Wharf route. The one-way fare is just 80 pesos. There’s minimal entrance fee depending if you are taking a day tour or spend overnight.

These are just my personal picks for affordable vacation places in Samal Island/Davao.
