Stayed May 17-18 2015,the room we got is a standard room(3,000pesos)that can accomodate 2-3 person(additional 150 pesos for the 3rd person for the swimming pool entrance as only 2 person admission fee is included on the published rate).
First time we went to Batangas.I didnt make any reservations to hotels or resort i saw on the internet prior to our trip. I want to look around as most of the time the pictures of the resorts and hotels posted in the internet are misleading or say fake,you know what i mean,that the pictures on their websites are old old pictures and most of them are not updated.
Okay,here is the story,we go inside a road that is a bit hard to locate if you will not pay much attention. Its Brgy.Nonong Casto.Its a two way traffic BUT to be honest,the road is too small especially if one is a big truck and for sure you will have a hard time squeezing your car.Luckily we go there on Sunday,not much traffic especially in the afternoon.
Me,my husband and my daughter went on a hotel/resort hunting. We inquire for the rooms on other resort,rates there are ranging from 2,000-3,000pesos.That's the cheapest and what surprise me is,its mostly 12hours stay so you will pay additional $$$ if you want to extend,take note,most of them have no shower heater.Plus the beds are horrible.About to give in to one of the resorts accomodation,i told my husband to try two more resort. Luckily we found the La Suena Brisa Resort. First impression,it looks expensive. I almost loose hope as we are also travelling on a budget. But,i went inside and ask the frontdesk staff how much is their rate. I was surprise its not that expensive. Plus,they have a VERY NICE pool. Well maintained place.Beatiful landscape.I ask if i can see the room,they gladly showed it to us with a smile. As the staff open the door,i was surprise that the bed is huge. Can really fit 3-4people.Nice bathroom with heater,fridge,a coffee pot,a flatscreen tv and a huge closet. I immediately told the staff that we will get the room.
The next day,we own the pool as there are no other guests swims that morning.There is a karaoke machine but they have a policy of until 10pm only. It really didnt bother us. Swimming pool is from 7am to 10pm.Their gate going to the beach are closed at 10pm too.City ordinance.
Con:
The beach is really dirty though.I understand that the resort can't do anything about it.Most are seaweedBrgy.Nonong Casto.Its a two way traffic BUT to be honest,the road is too small especially if one is a big truck and for sure you will have a hard time squeezing your car.Luckily we go there on Sunday,not much traffic especially in the afternoon.
