The province of Siquijor has its fair share of picturesque beaches, diving spots, waterfalls, and beautiful mountains to trek. Go on a vacation at the island and you’ll never run out of things to do. Aside from the natural attractions and island hopping there are also restaurants with delectable menus to try. But for now, you can stick with staying at one of the most beautiful resorts in the area – Coco Grove Beach Resort.

The resort

Coco Grove Beach Resort is a beachfront hotel with a slew of rooms to choose from and many activities to offer. It also has a prime diving spot with Tubod Marine Sanctuary located right in front of the resort. The sanctuary is a preserved coral reef in Siquijor which boasts of a number of fish swimming in crystalline waters. Guests have access to the sandy strip of Tubod Beach and can even appreciate Tubod Marine Sanctuary up close with snorkeling activities.

An abundance of cottages and villas

The rooms at Coco Grove Beach Resort are a few meters away from the strip of white sand that awaits you. They’re divided into seven types: standard, deluxe, superior cottage, executive, villa suite, villa premier, and penthouse. Each is made spacious and can room a minimum of two and a maximum of six persons.

It even has a rooftop boasting of a 360-degree view and a private, outdoor Jacuzzi. There’s air-conditioning indoors and a 32″ TV if you don’t feel like going outside. The Penthouse can accommodate up to four guests.
