The resort offers torch-lit dinners, served al fresco under the stars,
along its dazzling white sand beach lined with prickly aroma trees. The island's 3
km. long shoreline can be circumnavigated in about 30 mins., passing by a rocky
shore where sea birds roost as well as the nearby barangay.
NOTE:This resort is currently nonoperational due to a fire that burned down all the cottages.
