La Playa At the Strand

We're a group of 25pax, we booked a villa and a penthouse and cooked our own food. I liked everything except:
- The flies in the kitchen
- Not allowed to lounge in the beach at night, probably for safety reasons

Other notes:
- Ice, there's a large supply, just ask the guard for assistance - P100 per plastic
- Island hopping available for P3k for 2hrs, there's a snorkeling area!
- Bonfire needs to be pre-booked, P1k
- No videoke (you can bring your own)

The place is good and the whole villa are clean. We enjoy while we stay. We like the place quiet and not crowded. We're going back again next time

Very calm and quiet place. You will drive through a forest reserve it is an uphill winding and rolling road from SBMA came all the way from Laguna it is easy to find dont miss the road sign pointing to La playa

Nice place to stay. We stayed in the mountain view rooms. The upstairs is one room with two full size beds with a table and couch. It was pretty clean, you just have to bring your own bath towels. Toilet paper was provided.

Great experience staycation. There room for improvement for example. Wifi repeater does not workwell. Like me i travel and work at the same time but all in all the service is quality. Very nice staff and guards and life guard are alert thats why you will feel safe everytime.

Great place. They provide wifi connection. No cellular reception in the area though so working on the road might be difficult.

The home was excellent with well-air-conditioned rooms, a fully funtional kitchen with complete utensils, etc. Caretakers could be more friendly to guests but overall, was a good experience.

Great place for group or family. Staff are very nice. Not crowded beach. Overall the stay was awesome. Highly recommended.

Good place and staff a very accommodating. Though could have been better if they also have toiletries available for their guest.

A sweet little getaway place between the lush mountain range of Mt. Natib and the Morong coastline. Hospitality and facilities is very fine. Loved the fresh catch of every day. A must to come back.

It was a solid beach resort, I'd tell you that. Their rooms are the best! Their employees are very accommodating too. Will be back this month!

The place was superb!
plenty of rooms!
very nice interior, elegant and so organized

Lovely and quaint place. Very private and seemingly safe. There was obvious effort to maintain the beach.

We rented both of the Duplex and we got the whole place by ourselves. It is just a few steps from the beach. Yes, not totally beach front but you get to see the farm and mountains in the morning.

There are a few stores around the area and there are no restaurants so you better pack up and bring someone who can cook.

We booked the place via Airbnb. The place is perfect for barkada or family getaways. It is only around 3 hours from Manila. The house is right in front of the beach, which is almost empty so you have all of it to yourselves. The waves can get high so be cautious. The pool is smaller than I thought and needs some cleaning.

Rooms are very clean and spacious. The heater in the shower doesn't work. There are no towels provided so you better bring your own. There are 3 rooms with AC and 1 fan room downstairs so helpers also have a room to sleep in.

Buy food from SBMA before going to the place because there won't be anything nearby. You can buy ice and charcoal from the caretaker. For some reason, the fridge and freezer doesn't cool properly. There are enough glasses and plates for everyone. You just have to wash everything before you leave (best to bring your own dishwashing liquid and sponge).

Lastly, the caretaker is very helpful. He responded very quickly and answered all our questions and requests. I would really recommend this place for a quiet and fun getaway.

Main house, beach front, overall decent
no towels
no food/resto (bring/cook your own or order from villa del rey)
mostly complete otherwise
not that private, got a couple of trespassers during our stay.prepare for bugs and frogs
there is a small sari sari store by the road
the private beach locals bring you for island hopping is already closed
snorkelling spot aint that good
(need gardenia bread for the fish)
3k for a few hours for the whole boat
TIP: ask the staff to buy fresh fish/meat/veggies, rice and whatever you need from their palengke.

The place itself is amazing, The view is unmatched, and the staff are topnotch friendly. We stayed at the penthouse and it was clean af. The utensils and appliances are complete.

If you're going to book, book online as that is their priority. Also, the penthouse is amazing but it is on the third floor and has no pool access. We had problems with the water going up but I think it is just by chance that it broke down during the stay. The beach also has a curfew until 6: 30 P. M.

Really nice time with family and great sunset. Only downside was clients next door partying until 4am. Need to be more considerate.

Went there for a vacation. It was very nice, with all the bedrooms having air conditioning and all private bathrooms. The view was also great. The swimming experience was spectacular, as even though I am only 5 foot, I was able to swim very far out due to the shallow water, and the sea floor was soft maritime sand. My only major complaint was that there was a concerningly large amount of trash and whatnots in the water and the beach itself, I've seen everything from straws to various chip and junk food packaging. Around the beach, there were also tiny yellow-gray fish, swimming around.

Lovely beach. Waves are not so strong. We had a good view of the sea where we stayed. Kids swam in pool or beach all day. We also went on a boat trip which allowed us to see another island. Got a glimpse of the Bataan Nuclear Power Plant too. I simply gave a 4-star review because there aren't many stores around.
