Looking for a short vacation south of Manila?
You may want to check out Acuatico Beach Resort in Laiya, San Juan, Batangas. It is a 3-hr drive from Metro Manila which makes it a great choice for a weekend getaway.
There are 21 contemporary Balinese-designed rooms and villas. If you don't like staying in crowded resorts (like me) and fighting for every inch of pool space, this is perfect!
Acuatico has a spacious infinity pool, or you may also head over the beach if you want to do some serious swimming, snorkeling, kayak or other water sports.
Acuatico comes with an in-house restaurant (Oceano, run by Tamayo's Catering) with buffet spread or you can opt to order a la carte at the pool-side bar (Acua Bar) for refreshing cocktails (and non-alcoholic drinks) and snacks.
If you want to stay connected, there is WIFI access and Cable TV in every room. We were fortunate to get a villa that is right in front of the infinity pool and loungers. When I don't feel like dipping in to the pool, I can simply snooze in front of the villa and relax.
They also have a facility for conference room that can house as much as 30-50 people, can accommodate theater seating arrangement style. Should be great for moderate sized company event.
