Pleasures of paradise

It was the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of the city as some of Manila’s A-listers recently had a relaxing, pollution-free and pleasant vacation in the top-rated Eskaya Beach Resort & Spa, one of the finest leisure and spa destinations in Bohol and in Asia, and a member of Small Luxury Hotels of the World. Through the genuine hospitality of Eskaya sales and marketing director Ralph Lim and the resort’s accommodating staff, guests experienced the pleasures of paradise through the resort’s inviting native-inspired villas that come with your own exclusive pool and jacuzzi, breathtaking views of sea and nature, world-class spa treatments and impeccable service.

Highlight of the trip was a delightful white party hosted by Eskaya that featured the beautiful and charismatic guest of honor — well-known philanthropist Bea Zobel Jr., who flew in all the way from Manila to join the celebration. The members of internationally-acclaimed Loboc Children’s Choir regaled everyone with their award-winning musical show. It was truly a splendid night of dining and wining as guests partied the night away, enjoying Eskaya’s delectable, high-end cuisine, smooth premium wines and soothing ambiance.

What a fantastic Bohol getaway to remember. Only at Eskaya!

A celebration of life and nature

The hardworking Diding Robles, responsible for the success of Royal Homes Marketing and loving wife of real estate tycoon Excy Robles, recently celebrated her birthday with a tree-planting activity in her family’s eco-farm near their mansion in Antipolo. Among those present during the eco-friendly and Filipiniana-themed celebration were Jun dela Paz, Jun Cayabyab, William Sy, Rene Labrador, Lolita Concepcion and Kit Bernardino-Robles. Here’s to more great years ahead, cheers!
