Los Banos, Fast Track

This trip was a spur of the moment-kind-of-trip. I was informed Friday night, and to travel would be at 8pm, Saturday. It's a good thing that Laguna is just an hour or two drive from Metro Manila, Q.C.

Los Banos, Laguna is located near the boundary of Laguna and Batangas. It is known for it's famous buko pies and hot spring resorts. The hot spring directly comes from the mountainous Mt. Makaling, which then supplies the warm and relaxing hot spring. This place is much appreciated during December months. :)




The landmark? Once you reach Pansol, Calamba Laguna, an array of resorts (private and public) left and right beholds you. So if you have no booked resort yet, it is still okay to go resort hunting and look for the right resort suitable to your budget and ambiance and food.

We arrived around 10 in the evening and stayed at our choice resort, R and R Resort. It was my first time there whereas our friends have been a regular guest in this place. This is a good place for families, couples, honeymooners, etc.

Our house for the evening. :)

Each house has its very own private pool, that is 4ft deep (neck length of my height). It's very warm and very soothing to the body. I really loved it. :)

Before ending our one day visit, we head over to UP Los Banos Campus. And I get to take photos of the surroundings and those subjects we thought were boring.
