Last week, we discovered the gardens of the Carmel Mission. Now we travel back here to Boracay, Philippines which I previously featured in my post, Shangri-la Moments in Boracay. The gardens here at the Boracay Shangri-la Resort & Spa are so authentically tropical, exotic and well maintained. The resort employs a fleet of local gardeners who are from the Island of Boracay to take care of these gardens like their own. They know these plants, trees and flowers so intimately. The gardeners maintain them everyday not only for aesthetic purposes but also with preservation of the environment in mind. The gardeners enjoy and takes pride in their work because they are also communing with nature and making an impact in preserving the beauty of their Island of Boracay in the Philippines.
Everywhere we went, we were surrounded by the Coconut trees and local plants and flowers.
Even the birds likes to hang out around here.
The walkway to the Beach is surrounded by plants and trees.
Shangri-la made sure that their outdoor shower is very chic too.
I miss relaxing here.
The sound of the water here is so tranquil.
Stone garden and Banana trees.
A place to relax and socialise is surrounded by water and plants.
I can't resist hanging out here by the Beach.
Have a wonderful and fun Summer Weekend!

ReplyDeleteLooks so lush and beautiful! Seriously wishing I was there now.
ReplyDeleteOh Pamela, you look adorable sitting there on the beah. A beautifully written post with superb photgraphs. Picture number 8 is going straight on my Pinterest. The gardens are landscaped perfectly, not an easy job to have it looking so immaculate. We grow bananas here, mainly for foliage but when we lived in Barnes we actually had little bananas one year.
ReplyDeleteWoW! Such an amazing place. Those gardens are so beautiful and that place look so calm! Also I love the last photo :)
