Summer in Aquaria Beach Resort Batangas


There is this not-so-new beach resort in Playa, Calatagan, Batangas named Aquaria Beach Resort. It is a 3-hour drive from Cavite. 
It is a beautiful place perfect for a summer getaway. If you feel like swimming in the beach or by the pool, you may do so as they have both.



This is what you'll see when you arrived in the place,



This is the beach place. It is not too far away from the pool so you don't have to worry if you need to transfer from one place to another for the sake of the children that you brought with you who wants to swim in the pool instead. Just be careful because we saw two jellyfish in there, good thing we were not stung.




Their pool. This is I think one of the highlight of the place. They have slides too for those who wanted to have some fun. The water is really made to look blue so its really picture perfect.
You don't have to worry too because they have many shower rooms for those who are already finished dipping in the water.
It is a good place to visit, just a bit pricey because it is part of an exclusive condominium. Per adult costs around P400.00 The latest you can stay here is just until 5pm, because as I said, it is still owned by a private condominium, those late nights if I'm not mistaken were already for those who resides in the condominium. Plus, if you are also commuting, it's hard to go home late from this place.

So yeah, that's me and my still-uncombed-hair. That is the legend and the first thing that is very noticeable once you get in the place.

TIPS:
1. Hire a tricycle who will fetch you after you enjoy in the place. Probably the ones that you rode on your way there, just get manong driver's contact number, so that you just text him if you are almost done packing up.
2. Don't stay too late, you may have hired a tricycle going to the jeepney terminal (which is not like a terminal) but the jeepney also aren't available there anytime, mostly it's just until 5pm.
3. Bring towel. Because its worth P650.00 which is way to pricey.
4. If you wanted to come in group, better yet hire a private vehicle.

How to go there:
1. Ride a bus going to Lian, Batangas. (with a fare of more than P100.00)

2. From Lian, ride a jeep going to Calatagan. (fare is P30.00+ each)
3. In Calatagan, you ride a tricycle going to Playa, (If i'm not mistaken, the fare is also hundred plus)

Location: Calatagan, Batangas, Philippines

Late Summer Beachin' at Casa Angelina, Zambales

Image
Can no longer remember when was the last time I updated my blog. I've been so busy that I forgot to put up some stories here. Anyways, just a few months ago, we learned about this so called Casa Angelina, from the town of Cabanagan, Zambales. I know it may not sound as familiar as San Felipe, San Narciso, or San Antonio, but this place is also perfect if you are after peaceful vacation away from the city life. Casa Angelina is owned by the husband and wife tandem of Roy and Joanne. They personally assist the requests of the guests. It only has 4 rooms, 2 are garden view, and the other two for the ocean view. According to Roy, they prefer to keep it that way so the guests can feel the exclusivity of the place. Each room can accommodate up to 7-8 guests comfortably.  (garden view rooms) (This is the first bed you will see when you open the room. They have an additional double deck and bunker bed. Too bad I forgot to take pictures of them.) Their comfort

Vista Tala: Home Away from Home

Image
We just recently went to Vista Tala in Bataan. Another place we found perfect to de-stress and unwind from the busy life we all have at work. With just 3 1/2 to 4 hrs away from Manila, Vista Tala is situated almost at the top of the mountain that's why you expect a really cold weather and a very poor if not no signal at all - perfect if you want to get away and relax for a period of time. We went there on weekday so there's actually not much people except for those that are there on a day tour. We were a bit late from their usual check-in of 2pm. Good thing they are not that strict in terms of check-in period. Since we arrived late, we decided to rest for a while and do some picture taking since its nearly sunset and the weather is getting a lot colder we opt to swim in the morning instead. Look at the view <3 You'll be provided with Wi-Fi Passwords but this only works when you are in the swimming pool area and not when you are inside the room. Ever

Staycation Review: Azumi Boutique Hotel

Image
I've been researching the best booking apps online and I came across Traveloka. Its not the first time that I heard of it nor tried it out, in fact my last staycation before was also through that platform. ( I just forgot to mention on my post). The offer various deals on flights and hotels. Recently because of the celebration of Independence Day, they gave out promos on hotels and flights so I took advantage of it to take a break from all the stress. For the hotels, you get at P800 off. We chose the 4-star mystery deal in Alabang, meaning we won't know what hotel it is unless the booking is confirmed.Before booking they already provided some information on why should you pick that hotel. The hotels participating in the mystery deals are little cheaper compare to the rates if the hotel was already named.The rate there is around P2,700++ and since we have the promo code, we only paid for P1,900. To our surprise, we got Azumi Boutique Hotel. Azumi Boutique Hotel is locat
