“Camp Netanya”

The Asian Santorini vibe

Visiting Philippines for special event and I had only 1 day to enjoy, So I planed to go diving in Anilao which is the most famous dive location in Philippines.

Next was choosing the hotel I will spend my day on and I will arrange the dive trip from it, nothing particular was in my head just opened the map and searched for hotel until I find an expensive hotel with price 50% more than any hotel in same area. The hotel “Camp Netanya”, I will be honest I only went through the hotel photos and booked directly no opinions or facilities checking.

I reached manila International airport at 15:20, after I finished security check I ran to catch bus to Batangas city (Anilao part of Batangas) but unfortunately I missed it, finding a taxi to take you to Anilao isn’t easy unless you offer good price. I found a Grab driver (a service company works as Uper) who took me to Anilao for 95$, we spent around 4 hours or more in road cause the driver wasn’t familiar with Batangas city and maybe because he’s old he didn’t trust the map applications.

Evening I reached hotel and checked in I went to room, since my leg entered the room my eyes started to catch the Greece vibes. Beginning with the marble of room floor, the white and blue bed, the wooden table and ending with the blue balcony lay on fiction view.

Woke up early morning to enjoy the greatness of the God the creator in the sunrise scene, view of Balayan Bay alongside with Mabini nature and Santorini fingerprints brings in hotel facilities.

I spent that day in diving and enjoying the view of hotel and late night outdoor movie beside the pool.

Special experience coming to Mabini- Anilao area and that beautiful hotel and the remarkable 2 dives in that location which I will express about next.
