Bakasyunan Resort and Conference Center Tanay, Rizal


Stayed at Bakasyunan Resort and Conference Center with my family during a recent trip to Tanay, Rizal.  Situated in an area with a view overlooking the Rizal and other neighboring areas. Though the place seems more suitable for large groups of people, events and team building activities.  Bakasyunan Resort still provided our kids other options for activities in the event of rain or other unfortunate events that may happen during our trip.  Never-the-less, we had a restful and relaxed stay at the resort.

Daranak Falls


Daranak Falls is a place you would want to check-out with your family and friends whenever you’re in Tanay, Rizal.  We happened to pass-by while looking for a place to eat during our trip to Tanay, Rizal, so we decided to drop by and take a peek. Daranak Falls is operated and protected by the local city  Government. The park is designed for good, clean fun and not much on facilities and infrastructures, so you would have to taper your expectations.  Nevertheless, Daranak Falls is good place to relax, have a picnic, and take a dip in the cool and clear waters while enjoying the scenery.

Lorenzo Garden Grill


During a recent family trip to Tanay Rizal, we came upon  Lorenzo Garden Grill, which was highly recommended by the Sisters at St. Padre Pio Chapel in Balimbing, Tanay, Rizal.  According to them the place specializes in grilled meats flavored with fresh organic herbs and spices.  They did not disappoint as the food is not only good but also reasonable.

Tarsier Conservation Area, Loboc Bohol


The Philippine Tarsier is one of the smallest primates known.  It’s size is no larger than a man’s hand and is normally found in the islands of Samar, Leyte, Bohol, and Mindanao. The tarsier is a nocturnal creature which feeds on insects, lizards, and small birds. Tarsiers are really a sight to behold and if you’ve never seen one before you shouldn’t pass off a chance to see one whenever you visit Bohol.

Bohol Bee Farm

During our recent trip to Bohol to attend a family reunion, straight from the airport, my wife and I decided to pass by Bohol Bee Farm to take our breakfast and have a look at the place before taking a tour around Bohol. We’ve heard a lot about this place from friends, but haven’t really had the time to see for ourselves. Since We took the earliest flight to Bohol, this gave us enough time to visit Bohol Bee Farm and experience it for ourselves.

Island Cove Oceania Swim & Splash Park

I have heard of Island Cove for quite some time now, but have not gotten the chance to go there, as it is located in Binakayan, Kawit, Cavite which is far from where We live.  However,  thanks to the newly built roads, it has made it more convenient for us to travel to Binakayan, Kawit, Cavite.  You just got to love technology and progress, using "waze" We only traveled 1 hr. from our home in San Pedro, Laguna to Binakayan, Kawit, Cavite.
