Promised Land Resort & Lagoon

The landscape of the otherwise great resort has shown some signs of ad hoc topsyturvy after typhoon. Some exterior walls are tainted by molds. Nevertheless, we enjoyed our stay in the resort. Resort buildings are grandeur and elegant. The room inside is 5 star quality with all amenities. It definitely is worth the price we paid. After we arrived at the resort, we visited the restaurant across the resort, the foods are very good, and price is very reasonable. After the dinner, we took a 15 minutes - 20 minutes long boat ride in the canal around the resort. The boat tour guide was very funny and entertaining; the night scenery is serene and very pretty. The next stop is a out door theater watching a show performed by performers from Indonesia's Ba-Li island. The music and dancing performance are very entertaining. The dancer guided the audience to dance with her. We had a good time. Afterward, we went back to our room. What happened next was very embarrassing and frightening at beginning. After entered the room, we could not figure out why light switches were not working, after experimenting for few minutes, we figured it out by put room card in the slot and lights came up. I then took the card out and went down stair to check something out. My wife went into bathroom. After I came back, I heard someone was screaming inside bathroom; the room was in total darkness. I again, put the card in, the light came up and let my wife out of the bathroom. After one minute, the light turned off again. Eventually, we figured it out the room key has to stay in the slot all the time to activate all switches. There is no instructions at the entrance though. It was really embarrassing; we just never stayed in hotels with such features in US. I told my siblings about the experience, they all looked at me as if I was an alien. Big laughs at the end. Free breakfast is exceptional.
