Vista Minmar

Before my family left again for Guam we went for an outing. We rarely have this chance to be together so we didn't let this summer pass without family bonding.

Affordable Beaches in Batangas

It's summer once again and is the best time for an outing and bonding. Usually, when you're thinking to go in the beach the first thing that comes to mind is Batangas. Well, it is really accessible of you're in Manila. So, here are the beaches I've been in Batangas which is much cheaper:

Villas by Eco Hotel

In celebration of valentine's day we went for a day tour at Villas by Eco Hotel situated in Mataas na Kahoy, Batangas City.

National Shrine of St. Padre Pio

Pray, Hope and Don't Worry. -St. Padre Pio

Cape Santiago Lighthouse

When we had our family outing at Puesto del Sol in Calatagan, Batangas, we also had a side trip to Cape Santiago Lighthouse which is another must-see attraction in Calatagan.  A 51 feet tall structure and only a few minutes away from the resort so we maximized the opportunity that we were there and headed to the place in the afternoon.

Puesto del Sol

One summer of 2012, my brother had booked a reservation for us thru Metrodeal in Puesto Del Sol which is located at the hilltop of Calatagan, Batangas. We've stayed there overnight with my family. It is accessible from the Metro so if you want to disconnect with the hustle of the city you may opt to unwind here. Getting close to nature and breathe with fresh air are sometimes what we need. The resort is quiet, relaxing and the view is oh so charming.

There are two infinity pools.
