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.

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...

Summer in Aquaria Beach Resort Batangas

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 i...

A Cold Summer at Estancia Tagaytay

Me and my relatives went to a short stay at Estancia Resort Hotel to unwind a bit. It's a big place but it is still there are some portions of it that is not yet developed. You may go in here by riding a jeepney in the terminal in Olivarez (the same jeepney that you ride in going to Picnic Grove). You can see it right away as it is just along the way. There is nothing so special with the looks of the place outside. When you get in, the lobby is beautiful and spacious. in the lobby you will also find there the dining place which is beautiful and cozy with their purple colored seats. While dining you may also see the beautiful view of Tagaytay with the glass walls. (Though don't be surprised, by the right side of the place, you will still see squatter area.) This is what i'm talking about. In order for you to get to the resort itself, you have to go down, you may do so with the stairs or the elevator. (Yes, the first floor is the entrance, the second floor i...
