    One of the most visited tourist destination in Guimaras. Visitors can visit the Church to pray and meditate or ask guidance from the monks. The Trappist Monastery also has a gift shop where you can buy products produced by the Trappist community. Their jams and mango bars are best celler. It also has a cafe which features Mango Flavored coffee. It has as other selection of coffee, non coffee, tea and juices.

    Great little retreat full of quiet corners for contemplation, a small but impressive collection of birds but the piece-d-resistance is their shop offering handmade local products made in the area. Their mango specialties are a classic but they have now expanded their products to wines, salt dips and organic jellies. Ended up buying a chockful of their stuff for presents. Cards not accepted which is a shame as we could have bought more! Truly enjoyed our visit here.

    A place of peace and quiet. There is actually a gift shop located nearby for pasalubong.

    If you are looking for a calm, solemn and hollistic place, this is a place you should visit. They are manage by Monks which are very friendly and nice. They also have coffee shop, pastry factory and gift shop inside. A good place to stop-over and enjoy the serenity of the place.

    The first monastery here in the Philippines. They put mango in everything. The place is upgraded and quite new. They have a cafe beside, friendly staff as well. You can try their mango coffee but I would stick to your usuals. Mango coffee tastes as it is. Comfort rooms are very clean. Chill place in Guimaras.

    The feel is homey and relaxing. The coffee beans came from their own farm which is on the other side of the coffee shop. The tourist guide told us these, "we pray and work to survive", and it hits home. Lovely day for a newly wed like us. 🏡

    A serene place with a church. You could go here for a prayer or attend a mass. Nothing much to do as a tourist though since most of the area is off limits to visitors. But there's a souvenir shop nearby.

    One of the sought-after Guimaras' Tourist spot. Aside from being a religious site, it is also a depot of different Monastic products which are healthy and nutritious sourced from the monks' farms and local produce.

    Run by the monks of “Cistercian Order of the Strict Observance”, they follow the rules of St. Benedict and are known for their discipline One of their sources of income are their hand made items and delicacies found and sold throughout Guimaras (Trapist Monastic Food Products) Cheaper to buy here directly instead of buying at the Pasalubong Centers at the City Proper Pay respect at the chapel before proceeding to the souvenir shop found nearby

  • 5/5 Joshua George L. 6 years ago on Google
    This is a great stop for tourists pasalubong and for prayer. They sell Trappist Abbey Products at their Tourist Shop. This is a must stop when in Guimaras Island. It's very accessible as it is just along the road. Though it's a tourist destination, one must sincerely remember that it is a Monastery and Monks live there. Silence must be observed.
