We decided to spend our 9th
Anniversary at Nuvali since we didn’t want to go too far from the Metro. We
were simply looking for a place few kilometres from the city where we could
relax and unwind from the crowded, noisy bustle of the city.
We checked in at Seda Nuvali. It’s a pretty new hotel where their first hotel is located at The Fort BGC. The room rate is a bit pricey for an overnight stay but it’s all worth it with all its first class amenities and a lot of outdoor activities alongside the hotel.
The check in is usually at 2PM but we were allowed to check in early at around 10am. We went straight to their game room where you can see few units of desktop computers, air hockey table, Xbox Kinect, PS2 and Nintendo Wii that you can use. There are also giant bean bags all over the room which you pretty much can slouch on after you enjoy the kinect zumba dance.
We took pictures at the back of the hotel
where you can sit and enjoy a cup of coffee waiting for the sun to set
overlooking the man-made lake.
We went around the dirt bike track where my
husband had few scars months ago when trying this out with a friend so this
time we didn’t do it besides there was no one around or no sign that the area
is still an active place.
There were several things you can do here
in Nuvali at a very cheap price. See below;
Bike
rental for only P60/hour (Mon-Thu cut
off time at 4PM) (Fri cut off time at 5PM)
Boat ride for P30/head (Min of 6 persons
and Max of 12 persons)
Fish Feeds at P15/pack
During the night, you can enjoy swimming or
walk around Paseo de Sta Rosa where you can find discount stores and various
restaurants and coffee shops. In this case, we tried Toastbox and the coffee is
a sure winner.
The stay includes a buffet breakfast with a
beautiful sunrise view of the lake and the pool. The hotel also has a gym for
those who are into fitness.
If you are into outdoor activities, you can
try N Camp for team building like activities or do wake boarding but didn’t get
to try this as we were short of time already and head back home where we look
forward to our new destination.
