My husband and I went to Valentino Resort and Spa for our wedding
anniversary celebration. It is a quick 2hr drive from Manila so it is
really accessible. The staff are nice and courteous. They have their own
golf cart that the guests can ride on to get to the rooms. We got the 1
bedroom villa which cost less than 5k pesos. They also have cheaper
rooms that are also nice and is more accessible to the pool area but it
can only accomodate 2 pax. The villas can accomodate more guests but it
is much more distant to the pool though it offers more privacy plus you
can park your car right in front of the villa which is more convenient
if you got lots of stuff to unload. The villa is simple and it has a
really nice view of the mountain (I think it's Mount Maculot). The only
thing I could complain is that the beds are small (2 single bed which is
not ideal if you are on a honeymoon) and the bathroom is really basic
(the hot water shower is hard to figure out how to use) plus the
drainage is not that good that water tends to stuck when you're taking a
shower. Anyway, the pools are nice especially the jacuzzi. They also
have cabanas near the pool where you can relax. They also have a
restaurant where you can dine. The meals are relatively cheap though the
taste is not that exceptional. You may also order the food and have
them deliver in your room. The place is very relaxing especially at
night where you can only hear the sound of crickets. The staff are
always smiling and I appreciate that they value your privacy but at the
same time attentive to your needs. We did not have the chance to try
their spa because they are already fully booked when we inquired but the
ambiance is nice. The breakfast which is included in the package are
just the usual filipino breakfast meal.
