One Laiya Beach Resort

Last weekend, my mom, my sister, my brother-in-law, my brother-in-law's clan, and I went to One Laiya Beach Resort in Laiya, Batangas (duh!). Overall, the trip was fun. the objective of the trip was a success; to get everyone together under the sun.

A few pros and cons on this place:
Pros:
The bamboo cabins and huts look pleasing to the eye with a dark varnish finish.
The showers had lots of water.
The videoke units are limitless (no need to pay P5.00/song)
(so far that's the end of the pros list)

Cons:
The beach itself had gray sand and you had to walk at least 30 feet from the shore before you could start feeling a little cool on the feet.
The short road from the pavement to the beach itself was undeveloped and a little rain could turn the trip from an off-road adventure to a A Real Life Gran Turismo experience.

Here's the price list of the cabins we rented:
Airconditioned Cabin with toilet and bath - P4,800/night. (the toilet rarely worked)
Non-airconditioned bamboo Cabin with no toilet and bath - P2,800/night.

This place is not barkada-friendly for those quick trips under a budget. It's not even family friendly because the only few (actually, 2) comfortable rooms are always occupied. The sand is gray with your occasional stones and sharp rocks.

I give it 1 GWAPOINTS. (sorry, my conscience could not give it any point but the scoring only allows 1 to 5. *sigh*

You're better off going to Zambales.
