Hacienda Darasa Garden Resort Hotel

Last April, we visited Hacienda Darasa via a deal we purchased in Cash Cash Pinoy. Here's my take on the place. Pardon me for whatever shortcomings I may have, this is the first time I'm writing a review about a place.

ACCESSIBILITY
Hacienda Darasa Garden Resort Hotel is located in 791 Pres. Laurel Highway, Darasa, Tanauan City, Batangas.

The Hotel
From Santa Rosa City, we drove to South Luzon Expressway (SLEX) via Greenfield-Unilab Exit. From SLEX we drove until Star Tollway, the gateway to the province of Batangas, via CALABARZON exit (which by the way lessens travel time and helps commuters avoid heavy traffic in Sto. Tomas, Batangas). We entered Tanauan City via Tanauan Exit. From there, we turned left until we reached the intersection after the City Market. Then, headed right to reach the place. From Waltermart, it's around 5-8 minutes drive to Hacienda Darasa which is situated on the left side of the road.

Impression: Accessible. 
  • Commuters will not have a hard time reaching the place because of available public transportation. For more info on how to get to Hacienda Darasa, visit their website here.
  • In any case you need to buy something, the market and grocery are just a ride away.
   

ACCOMMODATIONS
The voucher that we purchased entitled us a discounted stay at three Superior Rooms. It looked exactly how it was posted in their website.

Reservations are a must because rooms are limited.

Impression: Cozy, homey and neat.

Cons: Eating is prohibited inside the room. But you can bring in as much food as you want, granting you will pay for the corkage.

Caleruega Church



Since I am still contemplating on the things I would be posting in this blog, I will be kicking-off with our department's trip to Caleruega Church last June 8.

Transfiguration Chapel

Caleruega Church also known as the Transfiguration Chapel is located at Barangay Kaylaway, Batulao, Nasugbu, Batangas. The privacy that couples and their families get during the wedding, which adds up to the sacredness and sincerity of the ceremony, makes this place a favorite wedding destination. Plus the fact that strategically it is near Tagaytay, another place for dream weddings. Unfortunately, a wedding ceremony was occurring during our visit that's why we have no pictures of the chapel's interior.
