BRAZAVILLE beach resort, “un endroit tranquille, serene et calme.” Nestled in a sandy beach with endless sea views stretching for miles, shaded by graceful palms amidst a palm fringed shore line. Enchanting and beautiful sunset flames the horizon with different colors.
Located about 250 meters from the center of the progressive town of Hinoba-an, it is a place whose life away from the city has been blessed by the pristine surroundings: fresh air, sand, sea and mountains.
Brazaville started with two bedrooms in 1999. It has expanded its facilities and functions area, to include nice now a total of nine bedrooms with comfortable amenities to offer. Most of the rooms feature views of the beach and the resort landscape. It has high speed internet connection.
Newly renovated beach front house boasts six-bedroom facilities, fully air-conditioned rooms with private bath, hot and cold water. It has a spacious terrace, beach front and lawn for all occasions with the amenities of a fine hotel and the comforts of a home.
Brazaville beach has innovatively expanded itself to organizing intimate beach weddings, debut and all other occasions. It has a restaurant that caters to your palates with local and international cuisines combined and a bar that offers drinks and cocktail mixes for your delight.

As a philantropist in Africa and in Asia, Phoebe has extended her humanitarian activities in the municipality of Hinoba-an. She has been giving away school bags and supplies to some of the less fortunate kids in different elementary schools in the town.
She initiated this project way back in 2014 in celebration of her 25th wedding anniversary, 25 kids were chosen and awarded to Barangay San Rafael Elementary school for two consecutive years. This year’s event, the fashion show runway is dedicated to 56 kids of Damutan Elementary School in Hinoba-an. It is one of her overwhelming joys to be able to share to these little ones.
