Day dreamer and Believer: Villas by Ecohotel

Villas by Ecohotel

5 Comments

This week was full of events and festivities for our family. We celebrated consecutive birthdays of my cousins, grandma and brother. Imagine how many cakes and sweets I ate this week. *drools* Anyway, this week I was able to squeeze a quick R&R and date with Terry and Paulo. We went to Villas by Ecohotel in Mataas na Kahoy. I knew the place through facebook, got interested and saved the details and pictures for future purposes. Little did I know that I will be making a reservation last April 30. We we're lucky to get the deal for only Php 499 because starting last May 1 day tour starts at Php 699.

The travel time from Batangas City to Ecohotel was like 30-45 minutes only maybe because there was no traffic and we left early. It was far from the city and the road was quite challenging because it was like driving going to Tagaytay via Talisay road. It's steep and looks like a one way road that's why you have to be extra careful. Day tour is from 8am-5pm and we were there at exactly 8 because we want to make the most out of our stay.

A little gate greeted us with the name "EcoHotel" when we arrived. The staffs were friendly and the vibe was really homey and welcoming. I asked the receptionist if how many guests they accommodate for a day tour. She said that they only accommodate 10 pax reservation in a day because the place is just small and they don't want the place to be crowded. We were lucky during that day because we were the only 3 people taking advantage of the beautiful place. See pictures and captions below for a quick and virtual tour :)

Ecohotel opened their private villa for us. The interior design iwas one thing that I loved about the place. The furniture and little decorations are also interesting. Just look at this door. Look at the details! It gave us the vibe of Indonesian culture.

A lot of chit chat happened between me and this girl. Hint: She has a new crush! Hahaha (What's new?! joke) She really loved the place and took a lot of nice pictures too.

Our favorite part! The view from the pool is beautiful. Looking straight will give you a view of Mt. Maculot while looking at the right will give you a view of Taal lake. The pool is just perfect. I think it's only until 5ft which makes it convenient for everyone. We spent almost 3 hours relaxing there. The place is very eco-friendly. There's no wifi nor music. The only thing you would hear is the sound of nature- sound of the chirping birds and the wind that passes by the trees. All we heard were our voices and laughs. It was really relaxing as if you're in a spa.

Outfit. My boyfriend said that I'm the queen of rompers (HAHAHA) because I always have a new romper in my closet. Aside from maxi dresses and skirts, I'm also addicted in collecting rompers. It's not convenient to use especially when you have to go to the comfort room and you have to remove it from head toe. But rompers give me an easier life to style an outfit. It's just naturally appealing and you don't have to put much effort in wearing it. You just have to match it with cute accessories. This romper that I'm using is my current favorite from Shein. It's lightweight and flattering. The embroidery and little details are just too cute. I ordered the size small and it's still a big question mark on how it fitted me. Hahaha! Thanks Shein!

This Shein romper is on sale! You can avail it for only $17 or Php 850 instead of $23. :)

Our day tour fee has an inclusion of a plated lunch of our choice. I had chicken barbecue while Paulo and Terry had pork steak and fish fillet. Each serving comes with a rice, veggies and shanghai rolls. :) We added potato wedges on our order which we weren't able to take a photo because we knocked it down even before we thought of taking a picture of it. Haha!

Thanks love for taking my pictures. :) Lakas maka pogi ng eyeglasses. HAHA

This is not a sponsored post btw (haha) but I highly recommend you Ecohotel for a private and complete R&R experience. Thanks for the warm welcome. Till next time! :)
** Thank you Shein for my romper :)

xoxo,

Rompers are the best in the summer! So easy to wear and they always look cute. The villa looks gorgeous, I love that swimming-pool! And it sounds like the atmosphere was great to relax :)

happy birthday to your granny and your brother, it must have been fun celebrating those two birthdays. Great romper look and I like the one piece swimsuit look as well. You look fantastic.
