I've only got that, sorry. I did it in 4k, I checked and I could read it. just check the resolution settings, somtimes UA-cam lowers this automatically depending on your internet connection.
My favs are Shangri-la and Crimson. Keep in mind both these resorts closed temporarily due to damage from the typhoon but are now both open. So they maybe a little bare than usual. I haven't been back since the typhoon. Crimson told me in January some of their villas were damaged so I'm not sure all are open as yet. Their dxl rooms were all ok. The Shangri-la said some of their front rooms on 1 (i believe their panoramic rooms)of the wings and their seafood restaurant on the beach was damaged. Again that was back in January so I'm not sure on updates after that.
Have you heard the news lately about an American tourist in Thailand being sent to jail for a bad review he made for the hotel he was staying? It was the first time I heard such news on a guest being sent to jail in Thailand for a bad review. Turned out he was commenting on the corkage he paid for bringing food in his room so the staff called the police and threw him to jail. He bailed himself out only after agreeing and signing a document and promised to remove his bad review from tripavisor with tripadvisor's help. Of course, tripadvisor reneged on its promised and placed a warning text on the property that read: This hotel sent its guest to jail' on tripadvisor page after the said American finally and safely exited Thailand.
That's crazy because hotels write their own fake (good reviews) on TripAdvisor. It's so hypocritical. I can't imagine a hotel that wouldn't write their own "great review" as it's free advertising. So if you had a bad experience best to write the review after you leave :)
@@FindingParadise That's right. But that's in Thailand. Because Thailand has a bad reputation for free speech. So tourists should be warned about speaking ill of Thailand especially about royal family, government or politics, and big corporations who have the influence to send you to jail. Just visit the attractions and praise if you like it but reserve your criticisms only after you left the country. Ha ha.
Or do what most trolls do, have anonymous profile so you can say what ever you like without any ramifications. If it happened in North Korea I guess you just disappear!
Mactan needs more of IBis styles, radisson, hyatt, westin etc... they keep talking about how nice beaches they have, but no proper international resorts like Thailand , Vietnam and Malaysia.. they need alot more new hotels and better roads

There is international resort known as shangri-la resort in mactan
Is it possible to travel to the Philippines right now? Everything I see says no.
No not as a tourist.
@@FindingParadise Will you be doing a video when that is possible?
Yes I will try.
@@FindingParadise your response is worth a sub. 👍
Also I've liked the videos that I've seen so far.
Cheers for that. Have a great one.
Border still close for the tourist?
Yes I did a new video on this here ua-cam.com/video/-Aynz0-z6no/v-deo.html
was at this resort 5 years ago. I was not impressed with the beach at all. The pools were not clear like it wasn't cleaned or filtered.
