Suzuki Beach Club (Subic Bay)

January 03, 2016 0
Suzuki Beach Club (Subic Bay)






It has been a tradition of our family to go to the beach when it's dad's birthday. This time is no exception.










We went to Olongapo. Actually, we don't really go very far from the city. Years and years, we've been alternating Bataan, Batangas, Subic, and Olongapo. 










We went to a resort called Suzuki. I think the owner is dad's friend of some sort. I'm not sure. Anyways, the view when we arrived blew me away. 








Just look at that. Very nice. Not the best beach but the view of the mountains will surely sweep you off your feet.










They only have one pool there and it's more of like for kids but it did it for us. Also, I have no idea why they opted for Shrek when it's irrelevant. For me at least.










Mika and papa just chilling. The landscape isn't anything grand but it's well maintained so that's okay too. 










The sunset was a show. I mean, I saw breath-taking sunsets somewhere and this is not near any of those but you know, sunset is sunset, can't go wrong really.








The next day. It was a very nice morning and we woke up extra early for the sunrise but we were a bit late so yeah. Went to the beach and enjoyed what's for us instead.









Grumpy sunshine faces. 










Last sunset of the trip so we kind of went out for a longer stroll that day. 










Glad mom was able to join us this time. :)) 










Still didn't make it early enough to view the sunrise but still early to enough to do stuff. We picked up starfishes, crabs, hermit crabs, and stuff. It was a fun-filled morning for sure. 










The moon was still out this time and the sun gives the mountain it's gorgeous red color so I thought I'd be nice to take a photo with it.







Gorgeous view 





It was a very nice trip away from the city. I recommend you book one too! I mean, city life is not really much of my thing so this kind of trip once in a while really gives me that refreshment I need. Ciao!

More Pictures From Subic. A Look Back.

More Pictures From Subic. A Look Back.

Can we just look back for a little while? Great.

Let me just start with this. We had this as a baon for our Subic trip like, years ago. And just because it's Dukbokki, it actually attracted me.

But it wasn't that good. It's just have the shape of the rice cake and basically, sweet and a little bit spicy.

Although that's really how Dukbokki should taste like, it really doesn't taste like Dukbokki. Weird. I know.

Anyways. Can I just say that my nail is love?  I'm really random at putting dots. LOL. I can't believe my Nail Dot made it this far. Bravo!


I hope this kind of thing will be preserved. I mean, a lot of the things left to us are kind of damaged already so yeah. I hope things like this will remain like this in the future.



I don't actually know if it's legal but we crushed the chips I'm holding in the picture to a very small pieces to feed the fishes.

Look at my face for a second though. The sun is up so that's why I'm squinting like that. I don't usually squint like that. Haha



Look at them coming.

Vista Marina, Subic. Review.

Vista Marina, Subic. Review.
    

I don't know why, but for some reason, I really looked happy. I loved the trip because it made me realize that the Philippines, at some point, is not yet "that" polluted. And if only we can do something about it, then who knows? It may still be revived to its best.


Sister and I posing under the sun. WHEW! Nice landscape I must say.


After applying sunblock and all that protective stuff.


The pool is really not very impressive. It is kind of small. Which I think is a good thing. Mainly to invite people to just go to the beach. But actually, the water is not very nice and all that. I really prefer the pool sometimes. But nevertheless, I did enjoy walking in the most shallow part of the bay. Even though I don't look like it.


Waves!


So we showered and went back to the pool. WIN!


The places was generally nice. The hotel room, lobby and stuff. It's quite posh. Sorry for blocking the nice chandelier.



Also, there are like a few restaurants nearby in which you might want to dine. The restaurant inside the resort is not very big and yeah there's like probably 5 restaurants nearby. When I say nearby, I mean walking distance nearby. I don't like that there's no WI-FI though. I mean, there is but you have to pay like 500 php for unlimited use. WTF? That's half a month bill of unlimited internet at home already. But I managed to steal WI-FI from a restaurant at the sea side so yeah. No regrets.

Subic Camayan Resort 2010. A look back.

Subic Camayan Resort 2010. A look back.

This is how the outside looks like. I must say that there's definitely a big improvement! It has this classy thing going on. Way back 2007-2008, it's very much nicer. It was very lame back then, if you ask me. I know it's like 2 years ago but behold! Because I'll be doing 2 more blog post that's way much behind 2010 hahaha. Who cares?


Outside the reception area. Definitely an awesome landscape you have there. Also! You can view the mountain and the beach from the bench. 


Just noming on a bag of Cheetos  haha. Fvck my life. Hahaha. When we went there, I don't know if there's a science behind it but the water is really uber very salty. Ah! Less water = more salt. Why less water? Because it's dang hot in the Philippines and all the water probably evaporated. Yeah. Perfect. 


And yup! My family. The room is quite nice! But like, so many ants and all that. Just on the door of the room though but I suspect that there are like a few inside. Which is gross. They made a new hotel and it's really nicer than before. Before right? My mom told me that the receptionist told her that they are digging a pool but what happened? Who's digging the pool? The ants? The monkeys? I have no idea because there's till no pool and the beach water is not very conducive for bathing. Overall I think this is still a nice resort. Plus! It's relatively near Ocean Adventure ans Subic Zafari so if you're like looking for a place to stay if you're going to that places, it's a very good option.
