Truly a Treasure of Bolinao

It was our company's annual summer outing that brought us to this place. Though it was a tiring six hour drive from Manila, it was worth to see and experience this part of the West Philippine Sea.

Welcome to Treasures of Bolinao folks! Resort was clean and spacious. Good for a big group. They have a billards table, kayaks, videoke machine, and different lounges where you could stay. The food was okay. Just be sure you will not arrive late during eating time. Also remembered the boss of the catering was sort of irate to her staff. She's scary alright. 

House keepers were very hospitable. They are timid yet friendly to guests. We can't forget that girl who showed us the Wi-Fi area while we were waiting for the check in time. We were the only guests who were bought there. And we did enjoyed the Wi-Fi, electric fan and the sofa bed.

Scenes from the Wi-Fi Area

Area has it's own fire place.

Rooms were simple, air conditioned and has its own bathroom.  Guests could ask for extra towels, blankets and bedding without an additional charge. Also, it has a 24 inch television with a DVD player. That time the cable was out. We just borrowed DVDs in the hotel's office. No renting fees, just leave your identification card.

We were not on the beach side, so we have to pass by the kiddie pool and the infinity pool before we could hit the beach.

Meet the waves and infinity pool.

Free foot spa! The sand is very white and very fine. Tough to walk on but it's fun! Waves were never ending. Sometimes small and always big.

Now that's what you call Babewatch :)

People of all ages enjoyed playing and staying in the water while waiting for the waves, even if it was super salty and will really hurt your eyes if it gets in. Pockets will surely be full of sand as the current pushes and pulls you. Surfers were also visible. Caution on the rocks if you don't want to get bruised.

Cape Bolinao Lighthouse is near the vicinity so you could also visit it. You may also visit the Enchanted Cave. I think its a 20 minute rocky drive going there. Sign boards could lead you to it. We went there with a guide from the resort.

Sunset hid from the clouds, but I'm sure it would have been a great view.

I can't share how much was the budget for this trip because the company financed it, but I could share the resort's website at http://treasuresofbolinao.com/.
