It was my son's birthday and since my son is not a fan of party, I search the net looking for a place somewhere South of Manila where me and family could spend the weekend to just have fun, relax and enjoy. I checked out several resorts ads online, and finally decided to place a reservation at LA VIRGINIA RESORT in Lipa City, Batangas. I was kind of hesitant at first cause it seems far and remote, but it's not. From Alabang Terminal we just rode a bus to Lipa Batangas thru STAR TOLLWAY, I was surprised that we reach the Tambo Exit in less than 45 mins. then from Tambo we rode a jeep to Mataas na Kahoy (bayan), and from there a trycycle to LA VIRGINIA. All in all travel time is about 1.5 hours to the place, not bad for a weekend get-away. The people by the way, were very nice to guide you, in case you ask them for the right way. So commuting going there, not much of a hassle. It was actually an adventure for me, cause it's my first time to go to Lipa in public transportation. First i get to appreciate was the climate, the breeze was really cool and fresh.
We reached the place around 8pm, It was well-gated and well guarded, it looks safe. When my eyes wander around the area, i felt glad, cause the place was nice and homey, the road going inside the resort is in terrains... the view , was amazing. As i look around i felt like i wanted to rush in and see more of the place..there's just a lot of nice things to see, the place was big and surrounded by life size stone sculptures from big fruits, to wild animals, Buddha etc... I was really impressed, i didn't expect the place would be that nice.
