Lemlunay, Maasim, Sarangani Province

When my ex-roomies went back home, they treated me to an all-expense paid Lemlunay trip. Lemlunay allows you to enjoy the magnificence of the sea or take a dip in the infinity pool. 


Lemlunay's infinity pool.

Lemlunay Dive Resort in Maasim, Sarangani Province can be reached after 30 to 40 minutes drive from General Santos City proper. If you don't have your own car, you can take advantage of public vans or jeepney going to Maasim. One-way fare would cost less than Php100. Upon reaching the resort, a Php300 fee will be required. This includes the entrance fee, the use of the infinity pool and a sumptuous meal.

The resort is situated on a cliff overlooking the beautiful sea of Sarangani. Lemlunay is also the home of South Point Divers. As soon as you leave the last step of the stair, you can already have a taste of the deep underwater beauty because of the sea's rich marine life and owing to the fact that the resort's front is the Tinoto Wall. You can rent snorkeling gears, dive gears, or you can enroll on a dive course for a certain amount of fee.  


A breathtaking view from the cliff.

Their menu offers a wide range of food choices and although I haven't tasted all of them, I'm quite sure they're all delicious. These are some of the foods that we ordered. 


Garlic Chicken
Fish Fillet with Chips


Pork Liempo


Grilled Fish

Kids can also enjoy the resort's playground while you enjoy the nice ambiance resting on a hammock. If you wish to stay for the night, they have rooms for you to check in. One room costs thousands of Php per night.

We did try dipping in the sea but hadn't gone too far due to unbearable surface waves.


When we went there the place is still under its renovation phase. Regardless, the resort is one of the best in Sarangani.
