Canyon Cove Residential Beach Resort - A quiet retreat


From a booklet of free vouchers that almost gone in vain, I had the chance to stay overnight in a cozy private space in Nasugbu Batangas, The Canyon Cove Resort Residential Beach Resort.



Perfectly situated on Far East Road, Piloto Wawa in Nasugbu, Batangas, which is approximately a 3-hour drive away from Manila, The Canyon Cove Resort Residential Beach Resort provides for a quiet retreat of peace and relaxation - away from the hustle and bustle of the city life.



Upon entering the vicinity, you get that feeling of being at the premises of a university dormitory minus the noise of scholarly conversations. A wide parking space, Row buildings that were reminiscent of the ones in Legenda Suites in Subic and Club John Hay in Baguio, lush greenery, leading pathways and cold breeze make for the laid-back atmosphere of the entire place.

We were ushered into a reception of sofa sets with blue and pink cushions. Dim lighting set the lazy afternoon mood as we walked up to the elevators and later on to our rooms. The afternoon sun's rays peeking in through the window sill and the glass balcony door created a dramatic effect to what was already a beautiful room. The bed was so inviting. The pillows were soft and firm - the kind that makes you sleep instantly. But no, sleep can wait as we have to make the most out of the short visit.





We head back to town next to grab something to eat and buy some stuff we need for the night. After which, we immediately returned to the resort for some afternoon fun and frolic. Too bad swimming in the beach was only allowed until 6:00 p.m. so we didn't get to take a dip. Instead, we just enjoyed the night posing for souvenir photos and went back to being kids as we spent good hours playing in the resorts large swimming pool.

The next day started with a buffet breakfast that the resort serves from 6:00 a.m. till 9:00 a.m. We took ours at 8:00 a.m. and after finishing up, I attended to some stuff online, before once again putting on my board shorts and have some fun in the water under the sun.




























After close to two hours, it was time to pack up and go home.

Despite of the vacation being so short of time, it's still nice to have a break from work and daily routine and spend some quality time with friends and loved ones - especially when it's free.
