Sherlyn Meets Suncruise : Manila Bay Cruise

My Romantic Hearts day at Sun cruise :)
- Dinner Cruise

Well, Valentine’s Day is just to arrive and the time is not far when all the streets, shopping malls and restaurants will be decked and dotted with love-struck couples queuing up in front of all kinds of places to while away time in each other’s company. For a person who is single the sight might seem stupid, irrational and quite irritating for sure. Some people might feel singularly left out on such occasions and delve into the comforting caress of depression while others might turn extremely bitter and skeptical about life as a whole. But wait. It won't happen to me. I can celebrate valentines on my own. Yes. So I decided to pick a new location for my February adventure, definitely this would be for the celebration of my valentines. I ended up buying 2 sun cruise tickets 1 week advance,

I was able to buy our tickets using my Paypal account. But they gave it back after they informed me that February 11 was no longer available  to my dismayed I did not purchase again. I called another travel agency for this and they booked me on Sunday instead. There was no promo that time, but still It was really affordable. I was able to pay 650 each ( 1,300/ 2 tickets). Anyway, I reserved our tickets 1 week ahead of our desired schedule. It would be better If you'll reserve your ticket at least 2 weeks prior to your desired schedule.

This were the tickets we had, It was kinda expensive because It was a holiday plus Valentine is just around a corner.

Inclusions are:

     1hour and 15minutes of cruises along Manila Bay
     2 Set dinners ( Eat all you can)
     Romantic Serenade on board
     Live Entertainment

There are 3 trips: These are the sailing schedule:

1st sailing: 4:30pm to 5:45pm
2nd sailing: 6:15pm to 7:30pm
3rd sailing: 8:00pm to 9:15pm

We selected the 1st trip cause we really liked to witness the captivating sunset and the lights of nearby buildings which is also an attraction in itself.

We arrived at the Sun Cruise are located at the back of Folk Arts  Theater in Manila at 4pm. Just in time for the registration. My friend  lined up and gave the vouchers.

Waiting for boarding.. Picture Picture..

This was not my first time to travel through water but still I was really excited that time.

Ohhh.. This was really romantic..  I was just thinking that someday I will find the one who will watch every sunrise with me until the sunset of my life.. I Just need to be patient.. Who knows? That would be this year..

  The crews are all friendly and helpful but the reviews that I read about the buffet are true. The food is so-so. Nothing really spectacular. Everything tastes the same and they are all bland. The way they setup the buffet stations also defeats the concept of a buffet style dining as you will not be able to go back for a second round as the cruise will last for only an hour and so with the long line, you will not have much time to line up again to get food.

There is a live entertainment on board and they have great instrument too and so they were able to play good music that entertained the guest during the cruise.

After the dinner, Of course the camera whoring. We moved towards the front part of the ship and we do the strut.  I felt like I was Rose in Titanic. This was really romantic.

I felt great about being single for Valentine’s Day, and I've always felt great. The only valentine I need right now is my self and My God. I don’t think it is depressing at all because I am happy with myself, not everyone can say that.

Valentine’s Day is not meant to be depressing, but instead filled with so much love, even if it is just you. Being single doesn't mean you have to spend it alone or in your room all day. There are many things singles can do, such as taking yourself out to eat, catching a movie or even giving your close friends Valentine’s gifts. You can even grab some other single friends and head out for the night. This was a really memorable Valentine's date for me.

If you will ask me if I will try the cruise again, I would say that I am happy I did it once with my friend and I will probably just spend my money on some other restaurants that I know can offer much more. This was a great experience though.

The cruise experience was indeed great. It could have been better if the food they served is good. The crews are attentive and the view aboard the yacht is great as well. =)
