Albuera's Perfect Spot: Baybayon Ni Agalon Resort

Baybayon ni Agalon

Unlike with the white sand beaches we used to see on island resorts, Baybayon ni Agalon is actually a pebble beach offering a pool resort located just along the road in Malitbog, Albuera, Leyte.

Small huts, tree houses and 2-storey kiosks were constructed at the beach, overlooking a panoramic view of the oceanfront.

The pool’s structure was wide built with slides sloping down to the water where kids can climb up and slide down to the pool area.

Also, children will surely love to play at the resort’s mini playground equipped with facilities for recreation. My cousins actually loved jumping on the large trampoline set there.

There is also a fresh spa pedicure tank at the resort providing treatment where tiny and toothless scavenger fish clean and exfoliates the skin, nibbling away your dry and dead skin. However, we haven't got the chance to try this spa treatment since the staffs were cleaning the fish tank that time.

The resort, too, has a small menagerie or zoo, lodging different animals like birds and reptiles. One of which are the ostriches seen near the resort’s entryway. We strolled around the resort and saw many kinds of birds housed on big enclosures and saw a large oviparous python resting in its cage wrapping itself on its food.

As you walk around the area, you’ll see these lizard-type creatures of which are suborder long-bodied reptiles dispersed everywhere on ornamental ponds and camouflaging on large brown trees at the resort. The pond, however, was filled with large carp bred fishes swimming at its mud-filled waters, with small pavilions or summerhouses set on ponds.

Additionally, the resort offers overnight accommodations and a snack bar or restaurant where you can buy food and drinks.
