It's a bus ride from taft, in one of the bus stations there and probably about more than an hour of travel before we arrived in Laguna. We rode a jeep to another jeepney station na dadaan daw sa Lagos del Sol so sakay lang kami. Mejo matagal din nagpuno yung jeep almost an hour din yata and mainit pa that time. Tiyaga (patience) lang kami hanggang sa go na yung jeep. Mejo malayo din yung biyahe pero nice yung breeze (nung wala na kami sa town proper) kasi kahit mataas ang sikat ng araw that time hindi mainit ang simoy nung hangin. Fresh kumbaga kasi mountain naman yung trail eh so walang pollution not like in manila na kapag pinawisan ka manlalagkit ka talaga. We passed along lake Caliraya so it means malapit na yung Lagos del Sol. Nadaanan din namin yung Caliraya Recreation Center na nalaman namin na sikat siya na puntahan ng mga nag wi-wind-sail yata. Ayan finally dumating na din kami sa wakas.
It's a long trail papunta sa reception area nila and mabato. Yung lupa is medyo clay yata kasi medyo orange yung kulay niya. But it's a nice long trail na puro puno and grass sa gilid ng trail. So here we are at the reception area, we get our key to the room and off we go. Hindi na namin nakuhaan yung room mismo pero here is a shot of the pool just in front of the reception area and the stairway papunta sa room namin.
About the room, ayos naman, malinis yung room although medyo parang hindi lang ganun ka-maintained. Isang bagay pa pala, kami lang yata ang check-in guest nila that day, we assumed, kasi the whole place is dark nung kinagabihan. Well, okay lang, habol lang naman namin eh makapag-relax at makapag-spend ng quality time together so that we have achieved. Dinner time, so we have decided to have it in our room so we shared over a whole piece of tilapia and a cup of rice each. What can I say about the food? It's awesome! Grabe ang sarap ng pagkaka-grill sa isda. We can't get enough of it at simot hanggang tinik. hehe. Busog pero parang bitin pa nga yata eh kasi masarap talaga but it's bed time already and we're tired so sleeping time na.
After we finished our food we went around the place to take some pictures. We really took our chance in exploring the whole place since its open to the public for such endeavor. Exotik Restaurant is a great place to eat out and basically terrific.
It's our 3rd and last day and this whole morning is all about swimming and taking pictures around the resort. In fairness to the resort, it's a great selection for recreational trips, team bondings or if you just want to relax and have a moment with yourself or your loved one. The place is so serene and quiet. Hindi ko lang sure kung ano ang feel ng place kapag madaming tao. Hindi lang siguro namin gaano na-enjoy yung place kasi we haven't tried the recreational activities they has to offer like ung wind sailing, jet skiing, and yung boat ride along lake Caliraya.
Great place to relax pero kung medyo gusto niyo ng matao at medyo livelier this place I think is not suitable sa trip niyo. Pang-relax lang talaga.
