Fort Ilocandia

As mentioned previously, Fort Ilocandia is a family favorite. It is so big that it is never crowded. The ambiance is so relaxing, the rooms large and the food great. There used to be duty-free shopping and I think the casino is still there. The expansive grounds are perfectly maintained and manicured.

The following photos were taken on a Holy Week vacation which coincided with the birthday of Timmy, April 15.

The kids liked it particularly because it has 3 swimming pools, one is Olympic-sized, another is deep and the third a smaller kiddie pool with a slide.

The beach is the widest I have seen and form part of the famous dunes although the sea is a bit rough and deepens quickly.
