This (the Philippines versus Syria tie) was an exceptionally well organized Tie by PHILTA (Philippine Tennis Association). Thank you, Randy and your team for contributing to what was an oustandingly presented Tie, Court and Formal Functions. Accolades must also be of the highest to Plantation Resort and Spa. They were unbelievably obliging, helpful, friendly and their staff were simply amazing in the attention to all the little detail that was asked of them. The hospitality and friendship that they and in fact everyone extended to the Syrian team caused them to come to me with players shaking my hand to say that this is the best Davis Cup Tie that they have ever been involved in. So Randy, you, your team and Plantation Bay Resort and Spa Management deserve every credit for this.

D.S., Davis Cup Referee, February 2013

Had the most memorable great vacation at Plantation Bay a year ago and I will do it again soon. Kickstart your day at fab Kilimanjaro Kafe with daily international breakfast buffet! Sumptuous foods, great staffs/service. Then do your fave watersport (enjoyed my jetskiing and island hopping with blue boat Ms. Flirt) or hit the firing range (did that well). Relax at their first class Mogambo Springs Spa or get into the Caretela ride then finish off your day with their nightly shows and again a well catered dinner buffet! A lot to enjoy at Plantation Bay! Highly recommended for a perfect getaway.
