Visited: Tuburan Mountain View Resort

April 17, 2014 by Sheila | A B & Me 1 Comment

One of the places we visited during our vacation is Tuburan Mountain View Resort.

Tuburan is located at Sitio San Roque, Bgy. Bolol Mala, Tupi South Cotobato. (Yep, we went as far as South Cotobato during this trip!). It’s about 1 hour away from General Santos airport. From Davao proper, it took us about 4 hours by road.

I didn’t complain (much!) of the long road trip. I was with family and we were enjoying the view. I have not seen a lot of green in the desert so this was definitely a huge change.  It was already almost dinner time when we arrived at the resort so we didn’t see much. We ate and stayed inside the room for the night.

We stayed in a big room with about 12 beds. Good for sharing with friends and families! They also have cottages for those who just want to stay during the day.

Wake up call came early next morning (when I say wake up call, it’s my aunts and cousins knocking loudly at our door, calling us for breakfast … LOL).

We took the chance to roam around the huge property and check out all the amenities.

Fish Pond

This is the fish pond where they have kois and Tilapia.


We weren’t lucky with our catch that day! 🙂

Function Rooms

This is a closed function room which can accommodate 25 – 30 people. Good for conferences and retreats.

This is the bigger (open) function room which is good for reception venues.

Swimming Pool

This is the glorious pool. I love that it is not treated water. This is deep well water that’s so clean that you can drink! The pool is also not stagnant. It over flows to other parts of the resort like a stream. A very nice concept, right?

Flora and Fauna

Aside from swimming and fishing, there’s more to see around the resort. They have a lot of animals roaming around …

And different kinds of plants and flowers… (love love this pic … can you see the fly?)

There’s also a river within the vicinity. It’s only about ankle deep. Really nice place for meditation.

Zip Line

And finally, you can see the whole resort and have an awesome adrenalin rush at the same with the Zip Line.


You will “zip” twice so its double the fun.

That’s me going for the first time. I should have put this on my bucket list  I am crossing this off my bucket list (ssshhh.. I just added it recently. HAH!!) Who knew I would have the guts to do this??

 

This is definitely one of the highlights of my vacation!

Hey there! I’m a mom of two who loves to crochet. Balancing work and motherhood is crazy, but I handle it with love and humor. With my eldest entering her tween years, the chaos just got a whole lot more interesting!

I’m fueled by coffee and dream of working from home. When I need to chill, I turn to my trusty essential oils. They’re my secret weapon for staying sane in the madness.

Join me for mom life, crochet, and my journey to work from home and retire before life passes me by.

I’ve been thinking a lot about the whole “YOLO I’ve been thinking a lot about the whole “YOLO” mindset. It sounds fun — and sometimes it IS harmless. But when we let it guide our decisions without pause… it can turn into a habit of acting first, thinking later. 

This post is just something I made to process that idea. What if we shifted from the YOU ONLY LIVE ONCE to YOU ONLY DIE ONCE? 

It’s not being a buzzkill. It’s about modeling self-control, delayed gratification, and faith in action—even when it’s not popular. 

What do you think: YOLO or YODO?

Ps. I shared more of the story behind this thought over on @threads if you’re curious (same handle!)
