Isla Reta Resort

[Bhyng Lago]

A beachline that has soft white sand and blue-green clear and clean water. A beach resort that is far from the city that took almost two hours ferry ride from Sta. Ana wharf. A beach ideal for retreats, team buildings and group get-away. A beach called Isla Reta is situated at Talikud Island. And the name is derived from the owners surname.

They have concrete houses that can accommodate 2 to 3 persons and wooden cottages for 5 to 6 guests at a very affordable price. Small tents can also be installed anywhere the resort but not within the shoreline area.

You may also buy freshly yield seafoods product such as clams, fishes, seaweeds and crabs in the barangay’s wet market then ask the resort to cook it according to you whims.

On the far end of the resort, there are boulders of rock. If you are patient enough with your fishing rod and worm (or any meat products placed on the end of the string will do) you’d be lucky to have medium size fish good enough to be grilled by lunch.

But mind you, don’t expect too much from the place as the resort is still constantly upgrading their amenities and services.

Nevertheless, the beach itself is a jackpot.

I'll be going there this month as part of my first solo trip itinerary in Davao. Will just stay there for a night and take some pictures. I was able to talk to the owner and reserved a place to stay at Isla Reta for Php800/day.

I am thinking about going to Isla Reta Resort. Any info regarding this resort would be helpful. A good contact person at the resort would help.
