It was a rainy weekend and we're already
at Tagaytay road headed to Canyon Cove in Nasugbu. It was a last minute
change of venue because of the overcast clouds and intermittent rains.
We googled for the nearest resort and found Sol y Viento . We contacted them
and we're fortunate that there was a rainy day off peak promo 50% on
room rate. We got a cabana at Php3500 complete with indoor jacuzzi,
queen size bed, TV, A/C, ref, microwave oven, coffee maker and a tiny
kitchen.
Sol y Viento is located atop a hill in Pansol, Laguna. It is easy to find and the road is paved. There's ample parking. The reception area is nice and you can see Laguna de bay. The front desk staff was friendly and quickly assisted us with our reservation. Check in was smooth. A male staff drove us to our cabana via 4 passenger golf cart. He was very courteous and friendly as well.
The room was spacious and clean. Bed was soft but firm and comfortable. Love the four pillows.
Aircon working fine. TV has cable channels. It has free wifi connection. Toilet and bath was clean and smell good. There is bidet which I like in a toilet.
The jacuzzi area has a glass wall over looking the lush green hill. It has a nice curtain which you can adjust to your desired length.
The water coming out of the faucet was hot and we waited for the jacuzzi to be filled for about 2 hours. The water was very hot and we had to ask the reception on how to cool it down a bit. We were surprised that after 20 minutes, a male staff brought us 2 sacks of tube ice. We were so happy and thankful that ice made the water a little colder and we're able to enjoy the jacuzzi. However, we found out there was no cold shower only hot. This was a let down because we were not able to shower off completely.
Outdoor, there were 3 swimming pools overlooking the bay and the mountains. The bay and the mountain views were refreshing.
They also have this man made waterfalls but the water was a bit cold. 2 of the pools with hot spring while the big pool was really cold.
There was a mini team building area which has signs of not being used for a while.
There are other areas at the resort you can check out.
Restaurant is run by Barrio Fiesta. Food was a bit pricey though. Menu is your usual Filipino dishes and nothing fancy.
I commend all the staff who were friendly, cheerful and customer oriented. I love the Manong who brought us tube ice to cool down the jacuzzi.. I do hope they fix the hot & cold shower because it's all hot and no cold. Overall, it was a great weekend get away.
