Check out some of the cool and cheap tours you could do in Batangas and Netanya.
Travel Tips/Things to Remember:
You can book the overnight stay online in advance via Agoda. For less hassle of calling, arranging and emailing back and forth.
- No walk-ins accepted. Make sure to book in advance. Most of the time they are fully booked, especially weekends.
- There would be a time that you cannot contact them, or you would not receive any reply from them. Please be patient. They just recently opened the resort to the public, and they are not fully operational yet.
- Parking is for free.
- The resort is just small. If they are fully booked, expect the place to be crowded.
- They only have 11 available rooms for guests.
- The resort does not have a restaurant; however, they have a kitchen area where you may order something to eat/drink. They offer the traditional Filipino foods like tosilog and bulalo. They also have pizza, pasta, and sandwiches. Some meals are good for 2-3 persons. Price ranges from P150 to P350 per dish.
- You can bring your food and drinks. There is no corkage fee.
- You may bring raw foods and have the staff cook it for you for free. Utensils can be borrowed from the resort.
- There is a dining area, which can accommodate up to 20 – 25 persons (with two long tables) and it is air-conditioned.
- There is no lobby or reception area.
- The pool is divided into three areas: 4, 5 and 12 feet.
- Thereâs a comfort room/bathroom in the dining area which is available for day tour guests.
- Bath towels can be requested. Bring your toiletries.
- Wifi is available. You may request the password from the staff.
- Anilaoâs beach is rocky. It is not ideal to swim at the beach. You may bring your aqua shoes.
- Expect an ongoing construction at the resort, especially in the parking area.
