Breathtaking!

 

Our Room

Busy and I were assigned in an air-conditioned room in the first floor, but we opted to stay in the second floor because it has a veranda. Even though the bed was a double deck, it’s okay, we can still fit in one bed ?

There is also a room with a double bed in the second floor but it was occupied during our visit.

Food

Finding a restaurant in Sabtang is a problem, good thing the pension house serves delicious food! It’s because they also have a catering business in Morong Beach, Sabtang.

These are the dishes that were served to us for dinner.
