    for me, if Im gonna spend money in a patio or beach scene like that, sa Italy na lang ako. kasi alam kong hindi ako makaka-swim kasi malamig ang tubig kaya wla ka choice kungdi tumambay sa sa veranda hahaha


    na-ingget lang ako sa family dyan sa video kasi parang ang saya-saya nila. I will never ever feel like that anymore kasi buset ibang mga kapamilya or friends ko pag dinala ko dyan, malamang puro side comments after , hinde mo ma-please lol

    I've been to Italy (and Sicily) as a GI. Both places are okay as Mediterranean hangouts. They're nothing special though. I much prefer Antalya in Turkey. Even the Germans and Russians think so too.

    But, we're talking about the PH because my wife have businesses/investments there. So, I know I have to tag along with her in the future. The two places (Casa Amara and Laiya) are 30 minutes apart. I'll try them both. But, Casa Amara appeals more to me.

    Now, you have me thinking about Antalya. Pine Beach Resort. I loved it.

    Beach resorts with a view of the beach from the room on the 2nd or 3rd floor is nothing extraordinary. Madaming resorts ang ganyan, ang ganda ng pool, landscape etc. What sets Casa Amara apart is the view from a much more elevated place. It brings you to a different perspective, more like a bigger picture, literally and figuratively.

    so, one needs a pair of binoculars to view the humans in the pool?

    C'mon. He meant the view of the ocean. So long as there is a sea breeze, shade, and ice cold beer, I'd be happy at Casa Amara. That's why I want to visit (or maybe even live there) the Batanes Islands. The elevated terrain have spectacular views, more than what photos indicate.

    It's very relaxing to stare at the ocean, especially when there is no one else around who might ruin the view.

    heh heh heh.

    i have colleagues there at the B islands.
    they say, the best islands, nature-blessing-wise, are those without a decent beach.
