hi question, we're planning to go to taal batangas to check out the biggest catholic church in asia daw, may alam ba kayong side trip on the way? tia

[riandrew]

Cintai, Corito's Garden

Cheers to the owners! Infernes, this place is more than a Balinese inspired resort.
The murals and sculptures were all awesome. Even the littlest detail was constructed well. The whole place is a peaceful sanctuary. It's actually so close to the real thing.

Di na kelangan bumalik ng Bali. hehe We loved the food and the service as well. Winner ang place for relaxation and ofcors, photo ops! hihi

i have photos in my blog Btw, may day tour din ang cintai. mejo mahal kasi ang overnight rate.

[m]

We went to taal town for a daytrip. We visited our lady of caysasay shrine, 2 wells, taal heritage town and st. Martin de tours basilica. Its a different way to enjoy batangas for a day, not your typical beach outing. Super sulit! You don't need to go to vigan or las casas in bataan para ka na rin nag go back to spanish era and sympre pray and wish na rin sa biggest catholic church in asia, you will be mesmerize inside the church ang ganda ng altar.its only 2.5-3 hrs drive via star toll

[cynth_pink00]

^ I agree sis. Very scenic and the church was just beautiful!

[m]

Yup kaya nga im so glad we took took the risk of going to somewhere na hindi pa namin na try hehe super sulit

[sakura_bloom]

Any advice on going to the taal volcano by road trip? Pagpunta ko ba sa talisay may mga boatnapapunta na ng taal volcano? May per person ba na fare? Or group ride lang sa boat? Isip lo kasi kung konti lang kayo like 2 people hassle kung buong boat rent.

May fee ba sa taal volcano mismo?
Ok ba yung hike dun?
Thanks!

[shegothim]

alam ko magrerent kayo ng buong boat but di ko na sure kung magkano ang fee matagal na kasi iyong last kong punta doon. may fee din if aakyat kayo sa taal volcano (by foot or sasakay ng horse).

[purple_girl]

hi sisses! we'll be having our team building sa corito's garden next week. any feedback sa place? also, any restos nearby? baka kasi mahal ang food. tia!

[honeycrushed]

^ sis, naka magkano kayo for your team building?  ok ba ang corito's for groups?  parang sa pics from the site nila nakakahiyang mag ingay  im also looking for a place for our teambuilding.  last year we stayed at stilts.  batangas area ang target para malapit. TIA!

[purple_girl]

^corito's is really nice sis. ang laki at lawak ng lugar. 8 lang naman kaming nagpunta dun and more of chill weekend yung ginawa namin. mga wala na rin kasi sa mood mag games at mag activity ng sobra. we got a discount so we paid around 18500 for 2 rooms. dun na rin kami nag dinner and okay naman yung food, reasonable price and ang laki din ng servings.

[honeycrushed]

how much ang range ng food sis?  ala carte ba ang serving or plated? almost 2k per head is not bad considering mahal yung place.  roughly, naka magkano kayo sa meals?

[purple_girl]

^meron silang plated, meron ding ala carte. yung dinner namin 1320 lang yung inabot, 2 fish dishes, 1 veggie dish, 1 bowl of rice, 1 order of suman with tsokolate, and 1 order of cintai jewels. 8 kaming kumain and super busog kami niyan. sulit yung food nila.

[honeycrushed]

thanks sis.  will try to ask for a good deal from them.   

[purple_girl]

^good luck sis. hope mabigyan kayo ng magandang deal. more or less 3k per person yung nagastos namin, all in na yun.
