Comments about the venue:
"I have toured and seen places around the world, but Lagen Resort in El Nido just blew me away. Everything from transport to stay was phenomenal and amazing. Loved the nice and always smiling staff that remembered everything and made our stray great. The rooms are super clean and well kept up, the pool is a great place to relax. All the activities and the coordination were perfect – we just did not have enough time"
"El Nido surpassed our expectations. We did not know that when you have full board during your stay, you can use the facilities of Miniloc, Entalula, and Dirimbula islands. Every day your activities co-ordinator will help you plan something to do - most activities are free (only ones that arent are diving and sea kayaking with a guide I think) We swam with jackfish, ate a beautiful picnic lunch on Entalula - freshly grilled fish, prawns, and meats, salads - all served on banana leaves".
" Good night every body! I may not see you until you go home, so I will say my good byes now, God bless, I will enjoy my wife tonight! Enjoy!"

Juan and Jacky escaped with their kayak and go somewhere where they can enjoy each other privately.
