Want to go to an affordable swimming pool resort where you can get away from the city and the crowds? Well this is the place for you, Andatoria Bay Resort in Baumbayan, Taguig City is a place where you can go by car or by commuting jeepneys and tricycle.

Before I rode the MRT Train, I applied my trusty sunblock because of course.. IT'S STILL EFFIN' HOT.

@My Boyfriend's Friend in Guadalupe.

From Pasay Taft Avenue, to Guadalupe (BEEP CARD DIDN'T FAIL ME <3), from there I had to go meet up with my friends. We rode a jeepney to Pateros (7.00php) then rode a jeep again to Bagumbayan, Taguig (15.00php- 20.00php) it will take you down at the resort itself. I think it was an hour and half of commuting? But it was worth it because of the landscapes and fresh air that you will be passing.

(BEWARE: There are tricycle drivers that will offer you ride from Pateros to Bagumbayan and for you to ride them, they will say that the jeepneys won't be heading there and the only way for you to get there is for you to ride them. PLEASE DON'T BELIEVE THEM IF YOU WANT TO THRIFT YOUR MONEY. My friend was swindled by those bastards and made him pay them 300php and will ask for an extra because of the information so BE CAREFUL.)

After arriving there we paid for the cottage and also the entrance fee.

I also asked if they cater events such as Debuts, Weddings , Birthdays etc.. And they said YES. They also have Air-conditioned Rooms for the Night swimming / Overnight / Stay for 8 hours for 1,500php that can be rented and be used by maximum of 6 people.

The people accommodating us are very nice and guided us to our cottage, you can also ask them to cook for you but I think it will cost you for the service though. They also have a Sari-Sari store there so if ever you don't have shampoos or ice or liquor etc.. They sell it inside near the entrance.

They have only have 2 pools , One for Adults and the other one behind it is for children, but the good thing is, they are separated like LITERALLY.

Their pools are big and wide, they also have I think around 15 - 20 cottages so that way people won't pick a fight over a spot.

There are also cottages near the pool area between the restrooms and shower rooms.

I think it is better to go there at Afternoon and Spend the night there for more time alone with friends, the people said that it is okay for us to drink liquors but only at the time where will not be swimming anymore for our safety, and only drink inside our rooms. And also, it's your choice if you want them to cook for you or cook foods for your group. :D

Adult Swimming Pool.

After I swam like for an hour I think, I started to assemble the coals. BF and his Friend helped me clean the shrimps and rice because instead of spending money again for services, I said to them that I'll be the one cooking.

So all in all, it was an easy trip that you and your friends can go to. The pool and environment is very nice and clean. Affordable commuting and not so hard carrying the luggage.

Commuting :
MRT From Taft to Guadalupe : 16.00php
Jeepney From Guadalupe to Pateros : 7.00php
Jeepney From Pateros to Bagumbayan is 20.00php
Overall Commuting Trip is : 43.00php x 2 (return) = 86.00php

Please Visit them this summer~ <3

Ciao~ <3

Me and my Ex-office Workers / Friendships (yey! ^ u ^ v) had a trip last March 22, 2015, and to tell you the truth, I missed that trip so much. I mean, there's neither wifi nor electricity on the Anawangin Island but that's the reason why it's so popular going there on peak or non-peak seasons.

First of course, the day of going there started with a "selfie". We left the condo of my friends' condo around 3am and met at the meeting place (around our office building). It was a 5-6 hours trip depending on what vehicle you would use, we used a van.

The feeling of bonding with your drunk and non-drunk friends while on the road trip are scenes to be remembered, there's this part where one of my guy-friends started spurting out "Yung gitara hindi nakalimutan pero ung bag ko nakalimutan! Bro, yung brief ko nandun, WALA AKONG SUSUOTIN! Makalimutan na lahat, wag lang ang brief ko!" (He didn't forget the guitar but he forgot to pick up my bag! Bro, my briefs are in there, I DON'T HAVE ANYTHING TO WEAR! Forget everything but not my briefs!) lol.

After chattering and singing for a bit, we took a nap while driving towards our destination. After around 3-4 hours, we took a breakfast - toilet break around Pampanga (I think), after an hour or 2, we arrived at the city. Our budget is 1,400php /per head and we we 12pax excluding the 2 drivers from the agency. The payment for the touring agency is around 600 /per head so we had so much extra money, so upon arriving at the public market, we bought some meats(pork and beef), coffees, dining utilities, drinks, beers and liquors, charcoals, seafoods (squids), and other stuffs that I forgot to mention (because I'm too fab to remember HO HO HO ~).

So we finally arrived, it was around 9am turning 10am that time. IT WAS FREAKING HOT! (remember to apply sunblock guys! ) We waited for the boat to arrive so that we could go to the Island. They had provided us with the giant cooler, pans, knife (that can't even slice a vegetable), and chopping board.

Us waiting for our ride.

RORORORORORORORORORO~

After we arrive on the island, we searched for our spot for our turf own (tents lol), we crossed the river near to the mini forest on the island and found a quiet spot there with not so may bugs nor flies. Us girls searched for twigs, rocks and mini woods for us to cook our food while the guys assemble and cook for us because they lost our bets.

Some of us already trying to prepare the ingredients for the other guys to cook, kt was noon at the time so we were soooo hungry, there are cooks on the beach side but it would cost us around 200php-300php per side dish, so we chose to this by ourselves.

Others were putting up our castle of haven (tent), so that we wouldn't be troubled by night by just assembling the tent when we could be singing, drinking and eating at the bonfire that we will be building by nighttime comes.

Le me will be changing to my ... hihi :">

After we had our lunch and prepared the snacks for the afternoon and dinner for the night, the guys tried to hike the near mountain at the beach side, by the way there are 4 spots (I think) to explore there, the first one is the mountain where the guys hiked, the beach side where us 3 girls swam, the Cove the right side where we didn't go because we were lazy but there are other tourist there that explored the cove and dived after, the last one as the mini forest near our turf.

Them guys taking a "selfie" at the mountain trail.

From Mountain's POV [left] Seaside, [middle] River ,[right] Forest, at the end of the trail on the other side of the beach is where the cove is.

Mini Forest. hohoho <3

After that, we swam and played on the beach and just plain relaxed.

My back looks so fab and skinny.

It was an experience to be utterly remembered, but maybe next time I'll bring extra batteries, my camera died after the sunset so I didn't had the chance to capture the bonfire, the sing-a-longs, the heart warming convos, and the truth or dares, but I can tell you a wee bit of it. One of the guys lost the chugging bet and ordered to go to the river side and scream his question to the one who broke his heart, he shouted "HANNAH! WHYYYYY?!" then he passed out after he had gotten near his tent. :)

Hope you can visit this wonderful place, before we returned to the main island, the driver of the boat asked us if we want to visit the private island where no vendors nor campers are around and we excitedly said yes. The sea there were clear blue, lots of corals and fishes too, it was just...AMAZING. <3

We ended our trip with a good memory, lots of enjoyment and a get-a-way we won't forget. :) <3 Happy tripping if you will go here because it's truly affordable, relaxing and fun. <3 :D
