Easy check in friendly staff, smoking area is situated on the 3rd floor balcony. Breakfast is fried egg with rice along with fresh fruit and bottle of mineral water. Lots of takeaway places outside for food. WIFI IS available in the rooms although site says only public areas. Youtube and Netflix is on the TV but couldn't access the cable TV. Clean room and fresh linen. Fridge is available along with towels, body wash and shampoo. Toothbrushes and tooth paste aren't available.

Was expecting it to have poor service, but no. Complete room amenities you can even ask for iron for your cloths without charge and hey the staffs are all friendly! The room is big also wasn’t expecting that. The beds are great. Very comfortable! Breakfast is not buffet but the food is also good.

Sixteen of us rented two villas. There were plenty of extra mattresses to set up floor bedding. There was a little problem with one toilet, but after removing the top, you could flush it by pushing down on the buttons. The service was a little slow in the restaurant but I’m sure they’re just recovering from the Covid slump. The hot water for tea is VERY hot! We ate dinner and breakfast at the restaurant outside and had a great time. We enjoyed swimming in the connecting infinity pools and the hot water showers were appreciated. Every view (room, common areas, restaurant) of the miles of surrounding virgin forest was awesome, breathtaking and pastoral. The evening weather was cool (high 60’s) compared to the 80’s in the flats. There was a cursory inspection upon arrival to make sure that we were not carrying outside food and drink. There’s a small store on site to purchase munchies, beer and sodas.

Las Casas Filipinas de Acuzar is a cool place, but it has its ups and downs. When we arrived, checking in wasn't smooth. Our key card didn't work, and we had to wait 30-40 minutes to get into our room. Plus, there wasn't even a place to wait comfortably. The food at the Filipino restaurant was okay, but it was pricey for what you got. Breakfast was better though, with lots of yummy Filipino dishes at a fair price. Housekeeping staffs and jeepney drivers were awesome. They were really nice and helpful. Our room was big and had a huge bathroom, which was nice. There's a ton of stuff to do around the resort, so staying just one night isn't enough. You really need at least two days to enjoy everything. The best part was seeing all the old houses. They were like stepping back in time and were super interesting. Overall, Las Casas Filipinas de Acuzar is a neat place to visit, even though it has some things that could be better.

Less than 3hr drive from makati, La Jolla is an excellent beach getaway destination. Rooms are clean and comfortable- premium rooms have sea views while deluxe rooms face the garden/interior road. There are 2 pools- one infinity pool at the beach and one kids pool/small lagoon pool up by the main lobby and playground. The beach is the main attraction- soft white grey sand, very few small rocks. Shallow drop similar to boracay makes it very family friendly. Nice trees provide shade near the sunbeds. Food- main restaurant has the breakfast buffet, while the beach restaurant serves lunch & dinner. The menu is limited, but portions are generous for the price and food was quite good. Pepperoni Pizza was good, and the chicken inasal & pinakbet with lechon kawali were delicious. The hamburger was the only item that we didn’t like the taste of. We had to preorder in advance since some menu items were not available and the service would take time. Staff are very friendly, but we did need to remind them almost daily to clean our room. WiFi is available and globe signal is significantly weaker than smart. Rooms have cignal tv. Special mention to Joyce, mark and the rest of the f&b crew for tirelessly serving the guests during the Christmas break! We will definitely go back soon.

This is the 4th hotel I styed in Mariveles and at last we found gem in the heart of the FAB district. Staffs: Excellent service and always helpful and smiling. Rooms: Very clean and the size is good enough for a couple. Free WiFi, numbers of TV channels, fridge and unlimited drinking water supply that you can get from the dispenser outside. Coffee and tea in the room with small water cooker, simple and enough supply of amenities. Street parking is allowed and there is always a night watch. Banks and ATM are just 50 meters away, there is a convenient store and a coffee shop 100 meters away. It takes 5 minutes to drive to the dry and wet market which is the best fish market in the province of Bataan. If you are in Mariveles during summer time, try to get a tripping to Five Fingers. If you fancy hiking and trekking, take the 8 hours hike to Mt. Tarak which is one of the best spot in Bataan, be sure to start at 0600 am from the entrance.

Upon arriving at the hotel which looked good from the pictures seen while booking. That was misleading to start with. Proceeded to check in. After they spent around 5 – 10 mins looking for the booking which eventually they found. 2 rooms booked for myself and another for my friend. Was then requested for a holding deposit which is fine, but they wanted this in cash. This I didn’t have, and they wouldn’t take a credit card payment (at this point). So now checking in was complete so you would have thought. Was then told that one of the rooms was upgraded to a VIP room. Nice. Proceeded to the rooms on the 3rd floor and was shocked once the lift door open and we came out. A children’s playground within the corridor. not only that it was nestled nicely into the corner where the corridor swept around. Both of us remarked “what the hell is that”. I got the VIP room and guess what! right by the play area and I mean right outside the door. See picture. Not happy about that…the noise was incredible from kids screaming and using motorised play vehicles. Went into the room and put bags etc down and thought big room …no more than 2 mins later the phone rang and was told oh we forgot to take payment for the rooms. This I thought was the opportunity to change rooms as I might have as well been in the middle of the playground at a school. Went down to reception and request a room change due to noise…what a mistake that was. Paid for the rooms with yes you guessed it a credit card. Given a new room down past the play area and shown in…smaller room yup it was…Dirtier and I mean dirty. Stains on the rug which tried to blend in with the patten…or was it even more stains. Great patch of something brown on the ceiling and just to top it all off the bed sheets also stained. The seating appeared to have been attempted to be ironed as had marks where they had left it resting and had made impression on the seat cover. The bed corners were more like foam barriers as the covering had split and all the contents were now acting as bumpers. Took the decision to make a room change back to the VIP room as could just shut the door and hope the kids would not be making the noise all day and night. Next morning, we both went to have breakfast which I can only describe as possibly the strangest dark brown meat on rice. My friend tried it and took one bite and that was that. Then what looked like a rubberised egg was presented to each of us. Off to Starbucks we went. Went out for the day and came back in the early evening to yes, the screaming playground. Ignored this and then went out again for some food. Came back Kids had gone to bed. Bedtime arrived and in the middle of the night I had to visit the bathroom. Not quite awake I went in and on the way out, eyes now working spotted a little friend on the floor waving it legs about. Took photo as I booked the room for myself only. {see photo) Spent the rest of the night up awake as wasn’t sure if my friend had some mates

Very good resort, highly recommended, right next to Subic Ocean Park, with private beaches for swimming, swimming pools, and open-air seaside restaurants are also very cheap. We have about 150 yuan for a meal for a family. There are few monkeys. Children like it very much. It is more suitable for couples or families to travel. It is also a few hundred meters to watch the dolphin show in the ocean park on the side. Many, awesome
