Thanks to CashCashPinoy, an
online site that features daily deals up to 90% off, I saved more than half of
the actual price. I don’t expect much, coz I don’t want to be disappointed, but
then, I was impressed with their nice and simple yet cozy ambience of the
resort.
The staffs are very accommodating, the check in time was
2:00pm but they let us stay in their cottage for free (as in “libre”). We ate
our packed lunch first before we decided to stroll around the vicinity. Despite
that we only brought “sunog” na fried chicken and pork adobo na may saging for
our lunch still, it was enough to fill our craving stomachs.
After having our lunch, the staff accommodated us in our
room-to-be. We were very excited to see our tent, to let our food be digested
and to have at least a little time to take a rest. In our booking we chose
campsite tent costing Php1, 499.00 for four (4) persons ‘coz we wanted to feel
like a cast-away even for one (1) night. It’s not because the tent was not nice but
knowing the fact that we were alone in that area, we changed our minds in an instant
(it was Sunday kasi kaya konte lang tao doon, unfortunately, kami lang ang
mag-te-tent). So we decided to upgrade our room to Deluxe so we paid additional
Php600.00 for that. Only one word to describe the room- “WOW!”, an
air-conditioned room with a television, toilet by our own, and mini ref inside.
All we have paid was worth it.
The resort gives their customer a one hour privilege to use
their amenities, volleyball, basketball, badminton, dart, billiards, and
karaoke. So we don’t miss the opportunity to try each of them. These are all
the memories you want to treasure forever.
Leah and I decided to take a nap for a moment after that
tiring sports fest because I don’t have enough sleep before the trip so I slept
for a longer time. While we (the girls) were taking our sleep, our companions
(the girls to be :p) are doing some insanity/weird stuffs outside (I don’t know
what particularly are that, but I can feel it). Haha. They enjoyed each other’s
company while enjoying the picturesque of the resort. They toured around for a
while and feel the frosty water of the pool.
I was awakened by the cold breeze of aircon in our room, so
I have decided to get out and observed Residencia de Riego’s colorful pool.
Their pool was truly great and amazing. What a bright idea to put underwater
light effects, it turns from being simple to FANTASTIC!
We took a lot of pictures beside the pool, for remembrance and for documentation too. Hehe. Before we decided to swim, we hang out through videoke for awhile. We do love to sing; even though songs don’t love us. Haha. We maximized the used of our one hour free-to-use of their Karaoke. I can’t forget the time when we all sang the song “Nothing Gonna Stop Us Now” (Theme Song???) haha. We had our dinner, and as usual yun pa din ang pagkain nmin Haha.

We decided to swim after an hour of sing-a-long madness. But
because it’s too late na and the water was so “lamig”, we don’t stay there for
long.
We left the resort at 5:00 in the morning. Since it was
Monday and an office day, we need to rush back in Makati. We were asleep in standing position
as we travel; it was ok though because we were all carrying good memories from
our escapade an Adventure as they say.
An outdoor expedition is good and it’s even better if you
are spending it with friends. It was here I proved to myself that happiness is
priceless; it can’t be equated by anything.
