Address - Bauan Mabini Road, Mabini, Batangas Ambiance/Facilities - We were just amazed as soon as we saw the overlooking from the lobby because it already faces the ocean. The white facade and big pool put your mind to ease Highlights - We booked a superior deluxe room facing the ocean and it was just amazing. We also booked a session of jet ski for 1 hour session with the hotel directly. Avg. Price per Person - Php 7,000 per night Rating - 5/5 #beachlife #celebratewithtrip

We had a great time trekking in Mt Gulugod Baboy. It took us around three hours to get up the top and the different peak points in the mountain. You would need to ride a quick boat ride of about 30 mins from the city just to get to the bottom of mountain. Prepare your worst shoes and dri-fit shirts for this trip because you’ll be drenched in sweat from this trek. Moreover, you should also bring a liter of water because you’ll be thirsty in claiming the mountain. Don’t forget to bring extra shirts for after your trip to change. We were a group of 5 going up the mountain and the stories with friends going up the mountain makes you forget the tiring trek. #trekking

There’s a little Greece in the Philippines. That’s right, you guessed it is in Mabini Batangas. Particularly, in Camp Netanya Resort and Spa Hotel. A normal deluxe room in this prestigious hotel would cost you about Php 7,500 per night on a weekend. O n the other hand, it would cost only Php 7,000 per night on a weekday. The view is truly amazing. There are numerous Greek authentic food at their restaurant. If you want to try their jet ski and island hopping, there’s also services available there. The spa is just perfect. This is a splendid trip indeed given the numerous Instagrammable shots we took while having a relaxing trip. #beachlife

📅 Travel Itinerary Day 1: 7/19 It rained all day from arrival Day 2: 7/20 It rained almost all day. Day 3: 7/21 It was difficult to get in and out of the water, but the sea was quiet. Day 4: The typhoon rain and wind poured down from late afternoon. It was the worst ever. Day 5: The wooden boards of the resort's deck flew up during breakfast. 🏨 Accommodation Recommendation Altamira Dive & Leisure Resort 🍴 Restaurant Recommendation 📌 Useful Tips It's very difficult to find a tricycle after 8pm. You can either go by word of mouth or ask the resort/hotel. It was convenient to be able to call the hotel for a massage.

Hey everyone, I recently discovered a dreamy vacation paradise hidden on the French Riviera - Biot Very Riviera Coast Resort. It fulfills all my seaside vacation fantasies! 🏝️ Stepping into the resort is like stepping into a Monet painting. Vast flower fields bloom freely, colorful blossoms swaying gracefully in the sea breeze. The azure Mediterranean Sea merges with the clear sky in the distance, a breathtakingly beautiful sight. Strolling along the winding stone paths, every corner holds a surprise. The ancient buildings blend perfectly with the romantic natural landscape, and every photo taken has the feel of a vintage movie. 🛏️ The room decor is also ingenious. The Mediterranean-style furnishings are fresh and elegant. Opening the window brings in the sea breeze and stunning ocean views. Lying on the soft bed, listening to the murmur of the waves, it feels as if all fatigue is washed away by the tide. 🍽️ The food is exceptional! The restaurant specializes in authentic Mediterranean cuisine. The tender and juicy grilled fish, with its golden crispy skin, is paired with fresh lemon juice. One bite, and the full aroma of the ocean spreads across your palate. The pasta, made with fresh local ingredients, has a smooth texture and rich sauce. Every bite is an irresistible temptation for the taste buds. 🏊‍♀️ The resort's facilities are fantastic. The infinity pool seems to seamlessly connect with the sea. Swimming in the pool, you're greeted by the stunning view of the horizon where the sea meets the sky. There are comfortable lounge chairs and parasols nearby. Order a cocktail, enjoy a lazy sunbath, and you won't want to leave. 💁‍♂️ The service here is also super attentive. The staff is enthusiastic and professional, from check-in to recommending fun places nearby. Every detail makes you feel at home. Trust me, everyone!

I really think this honeymoon trip is very suitable for newlyweds. After all, there is nothing around here except the sea and the swimming pool. When I wake up, I just eat, drink, swim and watch the sea. If you are bored, you can only do what you want to do (? But I came with a group of girls, so I drank until midnight🤣🤣 #manila #philippines

This time I went abroad to travel to Greece (by mistake) Actually, I went to Little Santorini in the Philippines. La 🤣 Mabini Peninsula located next to Batangas Port It takes about 2 hours to drive from Manila (If you are lucky and there is no traffic jam...) The resort we stayed in this time was Camp Netanya The resort is so beautiful that it will scream 🥹 I heard the sunset here is beautiful It’s a pity that we encountered a typhoon this time and it rained all the time so we couldn’t see it at all🥹🥹 The resort has an infinity swimming pool, gym, SPA, gift shop, bar, children's play area, and art gallery. (The gallery is still under renovation) I don’t know if it’s because of weekdays or typhoon I stayed at the bar for two days this time and the gift shop was not open. But I must praise the infinity pool! Super beautiful! Very nice photo 👍 And the lifeguards will be very enthusiastic to come over and ask if you need to take pictures🤣 If you can’t swim and don’t like taking pictures You can also sit on a deck chair on the shore to bask in the sun and watch the sea. It feels super chill~ #PHILIPPINES # # PHILIPPINES # # MANILA #

Hey there fellow adventure seekers! Just had to share my recent getaway gem – Batangas! It's like a breath of fresh air away from the city chaos, and guess what? Just a 2.5-hour drive from Manila. 🚗 Imagine dipping your toes into the bluest, clearest waters – seriously, I even swam with starfish! If you're a water baby like me, Batangas is your playground.
