Caliraya Mountain Spring Resort


Recently, I received an invite from my blogger friend about this overnight stay at Caliraya Mountain Spring Resort, without thinking twice I immediately confirmed her invite. We went together to this event with our 2 other college classmates. Originally, our weekend getaway should be Sept 20-21 but due to typhoon Mario, the organizer postponed the schedule the following weekend.

 

The organizer picked us up around 8:00AM in McDonald’s Marcos Hi-way. Two groups were picked up. Total of 8pax. The travel was not so convenient since we have to fit ourselves inside the Avanza.

After around 3-hours of travel, we reached our destination. Welcoming us is their clubhouse with wide space for dining overlooking their golf course and the Mt. Banahaw.

 

While waiting for the other groups, they provide us glass of Mango Juice. An hour had past and we headed inside their Air-Conditioned Dining room for our sumptuous Lunch. (Photos to follow)


Around 2 in the afternoon, our shuttle service arrived to bring us to their Marina to check in our things to their Anahaw Villas.




Actually there are lots of activities provided for us during the first day, but we opted to stay inside our villa to catch up with one another after 4 years of not seeing each other.



Around 5PM, we headed to their Fishing area to try to catch some Dory but after 30 minutes of waiting, we failed. After a slight disappointment, we went to the veranda to chill. We ate ice-cream while waiting for our shuttle to bring us back to the clubhouse for our dinner.

 

7PM our dinner was served. (Photos to follow)

After dinner, the organizer invited us for some Karaoke Night, we went inside but did not held any microphone to sing. But when we notice that only the 4 of us were left inside the karaoke room, we had our concert.

9PM when out shuttle arrived to bring us back to veranda for the bonfire activity. It took us about an hour before we successfully lit the fire due to the slight rain the poured few hours ago.

After the bonfire activity, we headed back to our villa to rest and sleep.

The following day, we woke up around 7 in the morning for the breakfast call. After breakfast, we had our Golf course tour. The 4 of us is a rotational driver of the golf cart we are riding during the entire tour. The view was spectacular yet the pathways were a bit scary and deadly. Due to the ups and downs and sharp turns of the terrain.

We also did tried the tandem bike which is quite difficult to use the first time but everything went well after few minutes.

They took us back to Marina for the main event. The Obstacle Course. All of the participants were divided into two groups.  The following were part of the course we took.


 

After the cardio-like activity, we dipped in their almost-infinity pool to relax our heavily used muscle from the course. Then we headed back to the clubhouse for our late lunch and checked out around 4:00PM.  (Photos to follow)
