I am no travel blogger and I wont be discussing much about the destination aside from some insights that you have to consider if you choose to visit this place.
Davao Bamboo Sanctuary and Ecological Park is a property made public by a curious accident. On a wonderful Fathers Day celebration, the owners and their friends invited acquaintances for a daddy’s day out treat in the family sanctuary in Calinan, Davao City. With the demands from the friends of friends, the sanctuary opened its door to people who seek respite and new adventure in the city.
The 9-hectare property was then developed further to accommodate overnight stay and small functions in the middle of a bamboo garden which was the family matriarch’s personal passion. You will notice a huge man-made dome built manually with bamboos and indigenous materials. The pool that flows in adjacent to the dome comes from a natural spring which is connected to a river. The entire park remains true to its purpose to provide a sanctuary and a temporary respite from the hustle and bustle of downtown Davao.
Part of its continuing and on-going developments in the park is providing a full-course menu to its guests and me and my friends from the Davao Digital Infuencers were lucky enough to sample some of their dishes which can be ordered in their resto and buffet. Dont forget to sample their signature dish which is the Chicken with Bamboo shoots. Here are some photos of the dishes that you’d see in their menu!
Thanks Davao Bamboo Sanctuary!

PS. The park is a short ride from Gaisano Calinan and can be accessed by van or shuttle which can be arranged with the resort. No public transport is available from the resort and can be a little bumpy along the road which is being constructed. Bring a lot of adventure adrenaline since you wont run out of things to do especially for day tours.
