Alice Log House Marilog Davao CIty

Front View of Alice Log House

Unquestionably, the Philippines is a country where beaches are the main attraction and the most sought after by tourists. Aside from the clear waters of the country, there are also beautiful spots in the highlands.

Have you been to Baguio in Luzon? If you are coming from the south and want to experience the weather in Baguio, Davao City has its own version of it -the BUDA area. The common term "Buda" is from "Bukidnon-Davao" because it is situated between Bukidnon & Davao. You can experience fog, cold weather and fresh air that can satisfy your desire for Baguio. If you want to stay overnight in Buda, I recommend a place for you to stay in -Alice Log House.

Alice Log House is 75 kilometers away from Davao City, the place is also along the BUDA highway at Bagong Silang , Baganihan, Marilog, Davao City. You can contact them on their cellphone no. 0920 824 4571 for reservations. You can rent the whole house for Php 3500. There is no electricity yet in the area but a generator may be used for Php 50 per hour. You may need to bring flash lights and full charge your gadgets if your budget is tight. Don’t forget also to bring jackets and socks because the area goes below 15 degrees. Also bring your own food because there is no store at the location. They have a stove though if you want to cook there.

Alice is a good place to stay in for families of barkadas. Alice log house has a play room just beside the living room. It has Darts, Billiard table, scrabble game, Chess Game, TV and karaoke. They also have free mineral water so scratch out the water in your list. If you're adventurous you can also visit the famous Epol Spring Resort (waterfalls) which is just a 30-minute walk from Alice.

I can also recommend that this place is perfect for wedding venue and pre-nuptial photo shot. You can also do your wedding in this place because of its view on ARAKAN Valley where you can image the place like in the commercial on Marlboro Country and also in Batanes. This place is really a place to be worth of coming back. Till next time Alice J  

Below are the pictures of the place and our adventure.

The View

Every girl wants a memorable wedding. Something that is worth remembering even if it is already fifty years ago. This is the reason why engaged couples come up with really cool ideas for their wedding. Today, aside from the traditional church weddings, there are also the infamous beach and garden weddings.

In Davao, modern weddings are slowly becoming famous. This is why new business that caters to weddings are coming out here and there. Not only that, other established businesses have added wedding options in their line of services.

This blog is a list of wedding venues in Davao City. These are famous and really cool places to hold your weddings. They assure you that you get your money’s worth with the experience you get from these venues.

The View Davao

The View. It’s very nice to imagine that you get to be married in an elevated place overlooking a large part of Davao City. It is found in Barangay Magtuod in Ma-a, Davao City. To get there, take the road that goes up to Monteritz Subdivision. It is close to the Manila Memorial Park and the Magtuod Elementary School.

Eden Nature Park. For nature lovers, Eden Nature Park is the best choice. Also, if you have an enormous guest list, Eden is the place that can accommodate all of them. Eden holds a large land area of the mountain. Isn’t it just nice to be married around the green trees and pastures? The park is also already complete with a lot of amenities that you might need from the ceremony to the reception and even to the honeymoon. Eden Nature Park is located at Toril, Davao City. It’s really far away from the noise of the city but that is what you want, right?

Isla Reta. Now, here’s a place for the beach bums! Usually, beach weddings are popular choices of younger couples who love to soak in the water under the sun. Experience romance in the cool seawater breeze with your other half at Isla Reta. Contradictory to Eden, Isla Reta is rather small and is best for those who only have a few guests and would like to hold the ceremony privately. Isla Reta is a part of Talicud Island in Samal. This means that you have to get on a ferry boat to go to this very beautiful resort.

Davao Beach Wedding Venue

Clearly, there are still a lot of additions to the list of wedding venues in Davao City. These are just personal opinions and the choice is still yours to make. Just a piece of advice: Whatever you decide, be sure that it is really what you want. Weddings are all about happiness after all.
