Peacock Garden | Around and About


We went to Peacock Garden just a couple of months after our trip to Bellarocca so we just couldn't help but compare the two. Of course, Bellarocca is a lot better in many aspects but Peacock Garden surely had its own characteristics that makes it special. 




First off is the bedroom. Its a studio unit with a fine choice of heavy wooden furniture. Each room has a 32-inch LED TV with cable and DVD player. The balcony opens to an amazing view of the sea. It has a small sitting area that's perfect for coffee in the morning, tea in the afternoon and beer in the evening. The marble bathroom looks clean and classy and also contains the basic amenities with not-so-special toiletries. 






The limited number of rooms in the resort makes it feel very private. Most of the guests only stay here after a tour around Bohol so there are barely any guests during the day. Day trippers aren't allowed by the pool area for additional privacy to in-house guests. Food and beverages could also be served anywhere in the resort for the guests to enjoy. 





The huge infinity pool stretches out to the view of the sea. The view in the pool at sunset is just stunning. There's also a game room and spa though we didn't get to try both. The well kept gardens and surroundings adds to the peaceful environment. And of course, what's a peacock garden without a peacock! There's a cage within the property that houses a beautiful but shy peacock. 






The best and most memorable part about our vacation in Peacock Garden is the food. Its probably the most expensive hotel restaurant we've ever been to but its worth every cent. The restaurant itself looks expensive with its heavy doors, large chandeliers and wooden furnitures. This fine dining restaurant is heaven for foodies and the like. Everything we ordered was superb, its like you can never go wrong with anything.This is actually where my boyfriend's obsession over salmon began. We kept going to different restaurants in Manila trying to find one that matches what we had there but nothing really came close. We'd come back to Peacock Garden even just for the food. Its definitely a must try.









Fine dining, tranquility and the best view of Bohol are just some of the things you'll find most wonderful and unique in Peacock Garden. It may not rest on its own island nor have a dozen infinity pools, but this enchanting resort will surely win you over like it did us. 


Till my next trip ;)
