I've been doing a 'rediscover Bataan' series as good alibi to always visit home.
I have a previous post on
Bataan tourism here, this one below was my recent trip on the southern most part of Mariveles, Bataan.
Since this is a relatively new place, and since Anvaya cove doesn't cater to non-members - I'd rank this as #1 resort in Bataan. For now at least. ;)
Amenities: swimming pool, play room (billiards, ping pong, etc.), bike, kayaks
How to get there: by car, take the Roman highway all the way to Mariveles (45km fr. Balanga), follow Bagac-road (going west) for another hour (~18km). Kind'a long, but the road is not busy. Bus: go to Mariveles, ride a pre-booked Camaya van ;)
Resort is med-high expensive (7k pesos cheapest room, ask for a discount as I did :))
|
Camaya Sands from a distance. from. the guard house, it's another 4.5km down to Camaya Sands, passing through residential areas. This one is some 1km prior. I saw a river on the eastern side (left of this pic), thriving bird population including raptors. |

|
Sands' reception area. you can tell that the room would be equally nice (i don't have pic). Room is big with big toilet typical of nice hotels. and a balcony. and free coffee. |
|
Resto cottage as seen from the beach. so far the only one. Ordered food was ok, I didnt like the buffet that much although relatively rightly priced (550 dinner, 250 breakfast I think). |
|
southeastern part of the beach. the water level is shallow for a hundred meters (i didnt reach past 50m). |
|
southwestern side of the beach. |
|
nice warm infinity pool not deep at all. jacuzzi pool on the left side (not seen), shallow kiddy pool below this (not seen) |
|
gloomy weather but the pool experience was nice |
