by on May.01, 2010, under Hotels, Restaurants

Tristans Restaurant One of my favourite restaurants where I’m going to eat again and again is the Tristan’s Restaurant in my direct surroundings. A walk from Bantayan Cottages at the beach till there needs not more than 5 minutes, if you take your time. The owner of this small Beach hotel and Restaurant is Nancy who takes care of every guest herself and always has a smile in her face. When we were years ago the first time on Bantayan Island we had our first nice contact to Nancy, so that we have today a very good relation to our friend Nancy. Back then only as Guests in her Hotel and today as guests in her Restaurant.

With her love to details she achieved that Tristan’s get to one of the best Restaurants in Santa Fe. Simple, but fine. Her chef is also getting more and more better through all the courses where he acquire more know how. In that way she is famous for her Pizza creations and also the Cordon Bleu. The meals you can get there are from good Philippine dished with fish up to common international meals, things what’s simple but very good taste.

Who likes to reserve a room there could do that under this Number:

Cell Phone number of Tristan’s: 09195371536

But please remember, Nancy speaks only English or Cebuano.

With the outrigger boat to Virgin Island

by on Apr.07, 2010, under General

And again we have made one of these wonderful boat tours where you can have so much fun. As before, we rented the boat and the small crew of “Bantayan Cottages” who have indeed been guiding us in advance on our boat trips. Originally the plan was once going around Bantayan entirely by boat, but unfortunately, the skipper told us that it was not possible because of Bantayan City at low tide is not coming through with a boat. The explanation goes so far that the one who told us that, there sometimes only 10 centimetres of water, between the islands, and we do not intended to push the boat.

So we gave ourselves to our fate, and first visited a fishing village on the neighbouring island Hilantaga-to where we were looking at for a while the sleepy fishing village. It was interesting here was a visit of a carpenter on the beach who built a new outrigger boat. On our Question for another Island where are some small Beaches that are not fully populated our skipper Junjun told us about Virgin Island on a small hidden beach where they were almost always alone. Earlier, I made you a small photo of this sleepy bay. Here a photo of the large outrigger boat that is well intended and is suitable for 10-15 people. It is particularly suitable for small groups because they already own just because of its size provides much more security and comfort than the usual small boats to get hired as usual.
