Another trip... Another adventure...

| The entrance |
It was summer time and I had only 3 remaining days to relax because I'll be having my summer class soon. I felt so bored inside our house, always blackout, so I decided to go in a place, somewhere I can relax. While browsing the internet, I found Alindahaw Lakeview Resort which is located in Lakewood, Zamboanga del Sur (almost 1 hr of travel from Pagadian City, Zamboanga del Norte - 49 km)
From the highway, I rode on a habal-habal (tricycles for mountain travels) with just a fare of Php50 which was almost a 10 minute ride.
With an entrance of Php60 per head, you can already enter the entire magnificent land.

On nightfall, the serenity is disturbed by the croaking of frogs and creaking of crickets. One can feel the cool mountain breeze during the setting of a new day and witness the fog slowly settles down the lake from the nearby mountains. If one is lucky, the lake is still at night that it looks entirely a thin mirros facing the night sky.

| The floating cottage |
If you want to see the whole site of the lake, then you can sit on the iron chairs on this side. There you can see the sweet reflection of the clouds on the crystalline structure of water.
This RESORT is really located in a very tranquil area besides the 722 hectares lake which is believed to be enchanted by some. The lake may be dominated by Purang fishes.

| Yucca House |
If you are with your partner then you can stay in Lumbia Villa (named after the fabled lumbia trees floating around the enchanting lake), Bamboo Suite, Bamboo Executive Suite, Deluxe Airconditioning, or in a Bamboo Deluxe ROOM.
This is your guide in choosing the best ROOM for you which I got from www.alindahawlakeview.com
If you are alone then you can feel the royal treatment in a room good for one person which is the Superior Room. For three persons they have the Bamboo Business Suite and the Executive Deluxe.

| Bamboo House |
At the back of me is the Bamboo House which has three floors. It has 5 well-appointed ROOMS with television and bath. There you can really see the top view of the lake and feel the fresh breeze of air.
For a whole family, they have the Family Executive which is good for four persons. For the whole group of friends, they have the Standard Dormitory with a minimum of ten persons. Remember, there's an additional of 10% payment for every ROOM during Christmas Day, New Year's Eve and Holy Week.

| Palmera Hall |
This Palmera Hall is just a kind of reception hall. If you want to have your
birthday celebration here or even your wedding, then this is the right place for you. This would really be a unique experience for your visitors.

| Lakeview Resto |
If you get hungry, don't worry cause Lakeview Resto is here to rescue your unstable stomach. Well, who would want to enjoy touring the whole RESORT with their stomach talking with them.
Their chef here is internationally-trained so you don't have to worry about eating here. Guests can also request for a private dinner for two at the lakeside for a romantic and elegant experience. Guests can also have their breakfast in bed at their private patio with the most panoramic view of the lake.
Their menu here involves sea foods like crabs, shrimps, etc. They also have Filipino's favorites like chicken adobo and fried chicken which are good for four persons. You can also order a cup of rice for Php15.00. Fried chicken for example is Php135.00 pesos ( 4 pieces ). They also have meats and beefs.

It was such an honor being in this momentous place. I never expected to see a lake as lovely as this. I hope many travelers would experience what I had experienced here. This is such an abode of tranquility.
