Carmina's review on Summit Hotel in Tacloban

Last year my dad had informed me he will be getting married in Tacloban the place his wife grew up in the Philippines . My dad said he would like all of his family members to attend since they couldn't go to the one in the United States. Carmina booked her flight during Philippine Airlines ’ year-end sale at the start of 2026. I told my dad about my travel plans for a short trip from Friday, April 17 to Sunday, April 19. My cousins also asked for my flight details so they could book the same flight. My dad said he will book my room for me sharing with two family members at  Summit Hotel in Tacloban . Sending me the confirmation booking information for my reference.  As the months went by, before I knew it, the big day had finally arrived—a rare event that doesn’t happen too often. Everything had been carefully planned by my dad and his wife, Tita Cielo. When we arrived, the check-in time was 2 PM, but there was a mix-up with the rooms.

Fresh Sweet Corn from SnG Mart Ph


Years ago Mom Violy and Carmina would go to the public market to purchase their vegetables. Due to our condition being stranded in our own homes Mom Violy was craving for sweet white corn to make some corn soup out from it.

Mom Violy asked her daughter if she can look online and have fresh vegetables shipped to her home.

Carmina was able to find the white corn from SnG Mart Ph Online Lazada Philippines for PHP 116.00 ($2.42) per kilo.


Carmina prefer yellow corn. She went ahead and placed an order for one kilo yellow corn for PHP 90.00 ($1.88).


There is no COD (cash on delivery) you will be paying another way to purchase online. I prefer paying through Gcash paying wireless is the easy access.

There will be a shipping and handling fee being delivered to your location.

Living in separate home Mom Violy had requested it to be delivered to her home although it had arrived earlier than expected.

Carmina decided to share it to the household where she is living at for our merienda in our home.

Carmina asked Manang V to cook the corn on the stove having to remove the husk and cutting in the middle before having it boiled.

I find it easier to cut in the middle too hot to do it after it has already been cooked.

We have family member who prefer the white corn being whole.
