please please, never go to loreland.. hindi maganda yung service nila. pramis! when we went there, ang dumi ng resto nila, ang tagal ng food, halos lahat sa menu wala, madumi ang pool. tapos inabutan kami ng bagyo. wala lang, hinayaan lang nila kami dun. naghanap kami ng payong para makatawid kami from resto to our room, wala daw sila. haay, stressful!

[kittykat]

how much rates ng Club Manila East pag day tour lang? and how much yung mg picnic huts nila? can we bring food inside ba?

[ficklemind]

^^ 310/head yung lowest rate ng daytour nila, Picnic rate tawag nila dun kasi included na dun sa bayad ang pagamit ng mga picnic huts/tables.

meron 360/head kapag sa pavilion kayo magsstay.

Bringing of food/beverages inside is prohibited, madami naman kainan sa loob.

thanks sa reply sis

[crystal_gale]

I want to consider Club Manila East too kaya lang kahit water and snacks ata bawal magdala sa loob..if overnight kasi medyo hassle yun ..

sis freeswan, thanx for the warning! buti na lang sinabi mo..para hindi ko na siya i-consider sa vacation ko

[ms.wanderholic]

Sisses, im looking for beach nearest to Manila?

San ba pinakamaganda?

Im aware that the nearest one way south is Batangas. How bout way up north? (yung accesible sana kahit commute lang)

*if there's a thread for this, kindly direct me please, thanks in advance!*

[tiger_hunt]

^sis...walang beach up north ang mararating mo in 2 hours....
