^ I know there's a market in Olongapo City.  That's where we shopped for food when we rented a house (for a vacation) in Binictican years ago.

i've been here last summer with my family and relatives..sad to say hindi namin naenjoy since hindi kami nagplan ng trip ng maayos.. ora-orada na lang so its our fault too.. nevertheless, i still enjoyed the zoobic trip and the beaches..hindi ko lang maalala yung pangalan ng mga beach na napuntahan namin.. siguro, kung may planning eh naenjoyko ito.. will try to go again next time..

^malayo sis. natraffic pa kami last week lang kami pumunta.

and review ko na din ang Treasure Island at yung ibang resort na katabi niya like yung Johans..

ergh..pagdating palang namin ayoko na sa place.
Lumagpas pa kami nung hinahanap namin yun, medyo liblib pala siya.
and i don't like the crowd there.

hindi pa nga kami nakaswimsuit and such madami ng bastos.
service is not so good, parang walang alam mga receptionist nila sa facilities at activities na meron sila, at iba iba pa sagot nila sayo.

was not able to try the watersports dahil magulo sila kausap, tapos yung banana boat na nagiisa sa Johans yun, binenta na daw.

ang dumi tignan, panget ang sand, ang dami pang nagiinuman kahit maaga pa. Para lang hindi masayang punta namin, nitry nalang namin yung boating to other island na hindi part ng service ng Treasure island, may manong lang na nag alok sa tapat.

but after that nagshower na ako agad nangati kasi ako sobra. pero while ng boating kami may mas mga okay palang resorts like yung White Rock ata yun?

and yung isa pa na Resort yung nasa isang island [textspeak!] siya, and you have to use a boat to get there.

Anyhow buti nalang enjoy kami sa Zoobic Safari, treetop adventure and the likes. pero sa tinuluyan namin totally not!

Wala lang talaga kasi kaming idea about the places there. Maybe its just me, meron akong nabasang okay naman ang review niya sa Treasure Island (which is also one reason why eto yung nituluyan namin) pero in MY OPINION lang naman. 2/5 rating ko.
WOULD NOT GO BACK THERE!
siguro if balik kami Subic sa iba na [textspeak!] kami magstay.

^ naku, if I'd known sooner, di ko na sana pina-book :/

Sana it would be a better experience for us. Kasama ko kasi family ko eh. What about the rooms? Malinis ba?

^Family ko din kasama ko nun eh.. haay ako din sana i should've known! nagrely din kasi ako sa mga feedbacks at wala na din namang magagawa dahil wala talaga kami idea saan maganda.

eto lang po sis onewickedsoul, about the rooms, okay lang siya. pero yung aircon ng room namin is mahina, parang isang part lang ng room lumamig. tapos for 3 person yung allowed sa room pero may space pa naman actually for another bed, 4 kasi kami so nag add kami ng 500 for 1 person pero walang bed yun. hindi sila nagdadagdag ng bed eh. yung extra payment niyo is para lang pwede pa kayo magsama ng isa pang tao pero bahala na kayo magsiksikan

tska pala yung C.R. okay lang siya kaya lang bumabalik yung water  :o. Pag nagflush ka ng toilet maririnig mo yung sink tas may tumatalsik talsik na water from the drain (yun nga ba tawag dun? yung sa butas ng lababo?) basta ganun. and isa pang nangyayari once ngflush ka ng toilet, parang aapaw na tapos ayaw na bumaba, ni paayos ko pa sa dad ko gumamit pa siya nung thingy para lumubog yung water, pero take note, hindi ko pa ginagamit yun ah, niflush ko lang para malaman if gumagana.

sa room 9 ata kami, basta yung sa 2nd floor na may balcony with 2 TV na ayaw gumana ng remote nung isa at nung next day wala ng cable channel yung isa.

Ewan ko lang if magugustuhan niyo, depende na din sa tao yun. pero kung conservative family niyo medyo off talaga yung place. parang puro foreigner andun may kasama din na mga filipina.

Pero kami naman ng family ko hindi kami ganun ka-conservative. pero nakaka-ilang talaga yung place. para nga daw squatters area sabi ng ate ko.

Basta lalo na yung receptionist nila ang gulo, magkaiba kasi yung girl sa gabi tska sa morning. magkaiba sila ng sinasabi. Nag inquire kami about watersports na sabi nila over the phone eh "meron daw at malalapit lang daw" pag dating dun parang clueless sila hangang sa may tinawagan silang guy na yun daw nagffacilitate dun ng watersports sabi 7am daw kami makipag kita.

The next day inask namin receptionist, 8 daw yun dating nun, pero kakasabi lang kagabi na 7am. pero mag 8 na wala pa din so we decided to go around at nagdecide nalang kami na sumama dun sa bangkero na nasa labas yung mga nagaalok lang sa labas. pagbalik namin sa resort after magpunta sa ibang island. andun na yung guy na nagfafacilitate daw ng watersports, wala pa pala mga equipment, tapos parasailing niaalok niya eh gusto ko sana talaga yun pero hindi siya katiwa-tiwala kaya mas okay pa ko dun sa bangkero sa labas. mga 12:30 na kasi din nun ang init na din for that.

and yung pool, maliit lang pambata.

tapos yun nga madaming nag iinuman maaga palang. at may mga mamang mukhang hoodlum na kung makatingin kala mo hinuhubaran ka na. at grabe mga makasipol nakakadiri at sobrang nakakailang yun syempre lalo na kasama mo parents mo

Hindi naman sa maarte kami, pero i've been to other resorts din naman na mas panget pa ang facilities kesa dito, pero atleast hindi ganun kabigat feeling na parang may mga nakamasid sainyo.

nung papunta na nga kami naligaw pa kami, lumagpas na kasi kami. Parang hindi naman alam ng mga tao dun yung Treasure Island kapag nagtatanong kami, lumagpas pa tuloy kami, buti nalang at naisipan namin na bumalik agad.

ang itanong niyo pala is "mga resort ng Baloy beach" kasi hindi nila alam yung Treasure Island. tska liblib kasi siya eh. liit ng street papunta dun. then pag pasok niyo ng street may maniningil sa inyo na 90 pesos ata yung per person (or much higher ata yung price? forgot na kasi inip na inip nako nun) sabihin niyo guest kayo sa resort dun para hindi na kayo pagbayadin

kami kasi nagbayad eh, tapos nung paalis na kami sa resort tinanong namin sabe nung guard kunin nalang daw namin ulit yung money dahil nagcheck in naman kami sa resort dun. pero we were not able to get our money back, hinayaan nalang namin at gusto nanamin lahat umalis asa nakakatakot na place na yun.

Foreigner may-ari nun, nakausap ko pa. the name of his pug dog is "Panget" sabi niya yung former owner daw nung dog nag pangalan ng "Panget"

Regret din namin yun na nagpabook na kami.

sana its a different experience for you and your family.
kwento mo din dito. kelan ba kayo magpupunta?
masaya sa treetop haha.
mas okay pa yung superman ride kesa canopy which i thought mas nakakatakot. ang kukulit kasi ng mga staff nila dun nanakot haha

I really hope it will be a different experience for us. Sana yung nag-recommend ng place dito would tell us more about their experience there.

Sis, di ko alam kung di open sa public.. napansin ko lang konti lang kasabay naming guests and foreigners pa.. siguro dahil nasa loob siya ng parang village.. anyway, company outing kasi yung samin kaya di ko alam yung arrangement with club morroco..

i think hindi siya open sa public. need mo atang bumili ng lupa dun sa subdivision sa taas para maging member. member kasi dad ko. i agree ang ganda ng place kaso ang layo.

is there public transpo inside SBMA?  we plan to go to tree top adventure from ocean adventure but i'm not sure if this is possible kung wala kaming sariling transpo.

We went to Subic, actually, Olongapo City on Sunday.

Our destination: Treasure Island Resort

Pros:
- the staff were nice, the security guard was very helpful
- they allowed us to check-in early @ 12nn, it was supposed to be 2pm
- they allowed us to bring food and drinks inside, given we only eat/drink them inside our rooms

Rooms
- room 5, family room, was nice and spacious. it has 1 queen bed, 1 single bed, bathroom // there was both aircon and fan in the room so it was really cold inside, which I like
- room 3, where my parents stayed, was cozy. aircon w/ fan, too.
- the cable tv was working
- the hot/cold in the bath was working
- both rooms have mini refs

Food
- we had lunch there, the food was around 200+, good for 3-4 persons
- their pizza was delicious

Pool
- the water was warm; it was clean
- we had the pool to ourselves come Monday morning; but it wasn't too crowded when we arrived on Sunday


Cons:
- I went home with bug bites; even had an allergic reaction to it so I had to take steroids to relieve swelling
- they said they accept credit cards, but when we were checking out, all of a sudden, it doesn't work, so we had to pay cash

Overall, we had a great time there.

But if I am asked if I would go back? I'd rather not. There are better resorts out there!

I'll be in Subic tomorrow until Saturday. We're staying sa isang guesthouse don (not open to public eh, nagkataon na kakilala lang namin may-ari) then day trip to Camayan.

Called Camayan the other day. Adult entrance is 300 per head (pwede ka na magstay sa resort nila from 6AM to 10PM). Rent ng hut na good for 15 persons is 1k. Sakto na to kasi 19 kami. Yung smaller hut naman is 700. 150 pesos yung rent sa lutuan. Good for three hours na yon. Walang corkage fee sa food and drinks except sa beer.

Kung day trip daw, first come first serve basis. Walang reserve reserve.
