TRAVELIN' | Playa Calatagan = Serenity

We only stayed at Playa Calatagan for about two hours. Two Hours Only! Well, that was because we were just having a tour slash ocular inspection for the venue of our summer escapade this 2010. Playa Calatagan is definitely one in the top list. It is an exclusive residential resort still on its development phase. I think. but companies and large groups can rent the pool area. They already have complete facilities: pools, cabanas, bathrooms, bars, dining halls, etc. But there are no residential houses yet. So mostly, it is still surrounded with greenery... I already forgot the names of the people who toured us around the place but I heard from them that the plan is also to have a hotel within the place so more people can stay longer. Currently, there are no rooms at Playa Calatagan which most of the time discourages the people to stay longer. That is also one of the reasons why we didn't choose the for our Summer outing venue (We chose Pueblo Por La Playa). But I still think the place is worth blogging. I liked the place.

We walked through this wooden bridge from the lobby slash marketing hall to reach the pool area...

The pool was huge... cabanas surround it...

But it does not end to just being a huge pool. it leads to a river pool...also with cabanas and jacuzzis on its every curve...

After the river pool is the kiddie pool and after it is the bathroom and locker area... That rock-formation-like thing in the middle of the pool is a kiddie slide, you know...

The pool area is very near to the beach which i also liked. The sand is not that white and fine...

But the sunset view is very dramatic.... really...

see what i mean....?


We went there last March and i don't know any updates about the place...

But after our visit, we prepared a review regarding the venue. and here are some of the points:
- The ambiance is serene and calm...
- Mostly earth colors...
- Bathrooms and showers are great!
- River pool looks exciting.. especially with the jacuzzi.
- No Rooms for overnight stays. But if you're looking for a twist, camping tents are welcome.
- Wide area for activities, especially for large groups (companies, etc.)
- don't know much about the price. but being a member in this exclusive resort gives you lots of benefits in using the place.
- Sunset is so romantic, dramatic, and relaxing... perfect just before going home.


I'm looking forward to seeing that Calatagan sunset again.
