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. Some were ready for check-in, but the one...

Carmina Lifestyle Went Live Streaming with Mom Violy at Manila Baywalk Dolomite Beach

Before Carmina had planned to do a live streaming with Mom Violy she had informed her once you've talked there is no way to edit it. 🤣 Mom Violy at first was quiet giving a heads up.  Carmina explained to Mom Violy she needs to start doing live streaming which is required for everyone who wants to ads on reels in their Facebook. It is a challenge we need to conquer even if we don't know what to discuss while having a live streaming. In the beginning Carmina informed Mom Violy she'll walk at the sky bridge since I was informed it was the only way to cross over to the other side. Mom Violy said, no. I'll just stay in the car. Carmina was preparing herself and began leaving the car. Mom Violy said, okay I'll go with you. I asked Mom Violy are you sure you'll be alright climbing the stairs up on the sky bridge.  It turns out Mom Violy came along with Carmina to explore.  Afterwards walking on Roxas Boulevard Carmina was looking for the entrance of  Manila Bay Walk ...

Mom Violy Craving for Olive Garden's Never-Ending Soup, Salad and Breadsticks

Carmina informed Mom Violy that she would be in the area of Mall of Asia and invited her to join. Mom Violy suggested eating at Olive Garden, and Carmina agreed since they had seen one months ago before dining at another restaurant. The Never-Ending Soup, Salad, and Breadsticks costs 795.00 pesos ($14.00), and you can choose a different soup for this meal. Mom Violy's favorite is the Chicken & Gnocchi soup. Carmina tried their Minestrone during her last visit to Olive Garden. This time, my meal included soup, so I chose the Zuppa Toscana with spicy sausage, kale, and potatoes. It wasn’t as spicy as the server had described. Carmina ordered the Italian Braised Short Ribs , which comes with a choice of rice or mashed potatoes, for 995.00 pesos ($17.45). Each main course includes salad and soup, so you can enjoy a satisfying meal by the time you reach the main dish, along with breadsticks.  A family member ordered the Shrimp Scampi Pasta , which comes with salad, soup, and bre...
