Pandan Grande Island is one island I'd love to return to because it has the rustic appeal of an island paradise, aside from being the nearest resort to the great Apo Reef. It has stayed that way, an island with limited fresh water and electricity (btw, no fans even), and unsophisticated amenities. However, with all these, commercialization has been kept to a minimum. This becomes a distinct advantage of this resort in attracting people seeking a way to get out of it all and enjoy life in simple pleasures.
Visit www.pandan.com for more details and look for Dominique/Dennis (French operators) or Laden (Filipino Admin assistant). Btw, Dennis can also converse in fluent Tagalog.
Kudos to you all for making our stay memorable and hassle-free.
