From the shores of the resort, you can view the large cargo boats that delver Davao del Norte and Compostella Valley bananas to ports all over the world. (davaotoday.com photo by Jonald Mahinay)
The plantation tour and forest adventure, which costs 200 pesos per head, offers a trip to the Hijo banana plantation processing plant and the Hijo port, owned by Hijo Resources Corporation, the owner of Lanikai resort.
Hijo plantation is selling 1000 boxes of bananas a week to Lapanday Corporation, which is exclusively renting the 120-hectare Hijo port for its use until 2010. At a drop of 13 meters, Hijo is the deepest port in Davao Gulf.

I think Lanikai Resort is one of the unexplored places of our time. I’ve been there myself many times and the place is just awesome. Apart from its scenic views and its being exclusive, this place serves the most delicious foods I’ve ever tasted. The resort staff are very polite as well making you feel at home and comfortable.
I don’t know if they still have it now but we used to play billiards and table tennis there before and at night we became videoke kings and queens. Plus there’s a nearby tennis court if you want outdoor games. But as I said, I don’t know if they still have those now. Better give them a call to check.
I wish to be back there soon…
