Coco Mama –Menu and Prices.  Coco Mama Stalls are located at d*mall, Station 2 Boracay and there’s another one located at the new Hue Hotel Food Court, “streetmarket” Station-X.   Here’s our delicious and mouth-watering Buko Salad ala Coco Mama. But in this recipe we omit the sticky rice it’s optional. The toasted pinipig adds texture and nutty flavor that complements well with the soft and creamy ice cream and sweet-tangy fruits.

Another summer frozen treats to serve to your family and friends, especially when you’re hosting a beach or pool theme party. You can buy fresh young coconuts in advance, and be sure it’s already trimmed and cut in halves. Keep coconuts refrigerated until needed, coconuts get spoiled easily when it is open and left in a hot temperature for a long period of time. You can also serve plain coconut water just add a couple of ice cubes, it’s so refreshing keeps you hydrated all day.

When we were strolling on this private beach here in Savoy – Boracay. I saw the swing, I was so excited to try it, but it was too high that my legs can hardly reach. But I manage to get into the swing, and as soon as I stand on it, it’s effortless the strong wind begins to rock me back and forth. I stayed there for a while, enjoying the swing and the beautiful view, while Ed was busy taking photos and videos. We took some shots here and there and left the beach, for breakfast.

The Hotel are fully furnished and looks elegant. The Hotel accommodation was awesome and the people there are so friendly and approachable. This is the view from our room, looks stunning. There’s a huge swimming pool in front of the bar and on the other side, there’s another big concert swimming pool arena with a beautiful bridge in the center. We have a great time staying there, the foods were great and the room service is excellent.  They serve buffet breakfast, the restaurant on the 2nd floor mostly served Mediterranean Buffet and Asian Fusion Buffet at the Ground floor in front of the Swimming Pool.

The Hotel provided a complimentary scheduled shuttle and van trips for free from the hotel going to d*mall – Boracay Station 2 and vice versa. Time schedule for trips should be followed or else you will be charged for a special trip. Thanks Megaworld for giving us this wonderful Staycation at your Luxurious Savoy Hotel – Boracay New Coast.
