Our province, Batangas, is known for the numerous beaches lined up on its coastline. But for those who live near the Laguna-Batangas boundary, our options are limited to private resorts as we live far from the sea, and nearer to the mountains and lakes. In my previous blog entries, I have blogged about a mountain resort and a resort by the Taal Lake. This time, I will be featuring a Balinese style resort, which is located at another area of Batangas which is considered as a biker’s heaven due to its uphill roads and rough lanes, at the municipality of Balete.
Cintai Corito’s garden resort offers overnight accommodations and day tours, located at Malabanan, Balete, Batangas. You are literally inside a garden, with occasional glimpses of the view of the Taal Lake. The swaying trees and the rustling leaves can be heard anywhere: while having a massage at the spa, while having coffee or dinner at Abadi Restaurant, while floating at one of their mesmerizing secret pools…

A day tour of the resort is priced at PhP1,850.00. The day tour includes lunch and afternoon snacks, access to all swimming pools, and photo-op all you want! 🙂 There is a special rate for those who intends to have their prenup pictorial at the resort.
The reason why we went to this resort is to attend the wedding reception of a close friend from elementary school. The reception was held at one of the pavilions inside the resort. The resort has several pavilions where important occasions, milestones, and events can be held privately.

Cintai Corito’s Garden is your sanctuary away from the stressful city life. Its Balinese-inspired surroundings will make you feel as if you are in a remote but secured place. Time seems to be longer while relaxing at this picturesque sprawling resort.
