Relaxing, hidden, and far away from the hustle and bustle of Manila. Despite the distance, this…read moreresort was worth the 3.5 hour drive from Metro Manila. Crystal Beach is in the town of San Narciso in the Province of Zambales. The resort features air-conditioned rooms, cottages, and beachside camping tents. They also have WiFi in the main area. There are a few bon fire pits and grilling stations for anyone to use. We opted for a day entrance just to experience the food, beach huts, and the sand. The admission fee, parking, and cost of food were very reasonable. The long journey from Manila definitely made us hungry. We decided to try out their restaurant located in the main common area. Seating was easy and we also chose the table closest to the fan for comfort. We ordered sisig, tuna salpicao, halo-halo, rice, and sinigang na hipon. The sisig has a nice mix of crunch with a citrus-pepper marinade. The tuna salpicao was tender and flavorful. The shrimp sinigang, which is a true Filipino favorite, was sour and savory. Halo-halo came last as a dessert. The bowl was filled with various sweet toppings and a generous scoop of ube ice cream. Post lunch coma started to kick-in and we decided to relax in one of the many beachside huts. Beach chairs were available along with the perfect view of the mountains and blue waters. The beach was almost empty and quiet. There are available surfboard rentals and surfing lessons for anyone seeking to ride the small waves. Showers are available near the common area. I would recommend this resort to anyone seeking a tranquil escape.

We went to Krystal beach but they didn't have room for us for a day stay, so we asked around and…read morewas pointed to Prince JB which was right next door. The owner approached us and asked us if we were looking for place to stay. We paid very little for a big hut with a big table and surrounding benches and a bamboo bed (papag.) They didn't have electricity during the day and the fans were not working, but we didn't care we had shade and the hut can be locked with your things in it to keep it safe. They also had airconditioned rooms if that's what your looking for. Day Rates and Overnight rates are available. The bathrooms were clean as well as the shower rooms. If you needed surf lessons, all you had to do was walk to Krystal Beach's Quiksilver Surfing lessons and you're done. Why pay for the expensive resorts when you can save money and enjoy more at JB's. You can grill food and the owner has ice as well. The beach on the other hand can be a little cleaner. Towards the end of the day there were dirty diapers and plastic bottles, from people passing by, but I think that's everywhere along that shoreline. People are just to lazy to carry their trash to the garbage cans.

This place is quite an adventure. A nice little gem in Cawag of Subic Zambales. Kurokutok is not…read moreyour typical resort in any sense. It's a nature park / camping grounds / day camp . But overall a lot of fun and beautiful scenery. This place is privately owned so it's by reservation only from their Facebook page for now. This place is all the way up in the mountains and off of the main road so it might be hard to find unless you know someone who knows the area. But it makes me feel more adventurous and exciting when you do get there. Especially for a city American girl like me, it was fun going through the trees and mountains and forest. Once you get here you'll realize it's sorta kinda like a fancy camping ground with lots of activities. Great for the outdoorsy adventurous type. It's a camp ground where you or you can rent a cute little hut or cottage which has a simple bed with a bug net, a fan, and towels. Nice little basic necessities. I love the native ambiance of the furniture and you get to sleep in a hut. There are also shared toilets and showers which were clean and well maintained. This makes it a great place for locals and backpackers. Lots of groups, big groups, come here for family parties and gatherings. There are a ton of activities such as hiking, 4 swimming pool areas, a single swimming slide, zip lining, fishing for tilapia in one of their tiny fishing ponds, and even a golfing/driving range! Lots of areas to relax in , lots of seating and grassy areas, a hammock area to lack back and relax and a beautiful small Infiniti "spa" overlooking the subic bay which is great for watching the sunrise and sunset.

We were there negotiating for about an hour explaining our side and ask for the videos around the resort supporting our claim but they said it they are not working, which is not our fault.

Lack of hand and face towels. Hotel guests have to pay for a beach umbrella? - ridiculous! This would have been a complimentary. We're not allowed to have 2 towels for a beach or pool day! The staff was asked for a beach chair and seems don't wanna give us one! WTH?! No elevators/lift... be sure your website says so. Breakfast buffet that was included in the booking sucks! It's cheap- corned beef, viena sausage. Not a lot of fruit selections (only water melon, cantaloup & papaya, I asked for mangos, twice in consecutive breakfasts in our 3 days of stay, said they are out! No one cares and takes note of it. No liquid coffee creamer. A local fresh milk Alaska brand or Magnolia would have been heaven! Highly NOT recommended

Needless to say I was upset and just told them to take it away and I didn't eat anything. Left hungry and upset. Why is it so difficult to get hot fresh food nowadays?

I got the mango bread pudding with mango ice cream, my sis got the mango smoothie, and my dad opted for fried mango ice cream. They were all a HIT! Each dessert arrived with a beautiful presentation. We highly recommend this spot to any visitors to Scubic!

A great day tour and private island!…read more Reservation was made by family for my husband and I to visit while in Subic Bay. The morning ferry had left early so when we showed up at 845 for a 9am tour they called a speed boat to take us across the bay to Grande Island. Once in we were in reception we were welcomed with a cold towel and mango juice drink! also provided were a bowl of Sunchips and waters. We ordered our lunch from a prefixed menu with soup, light meat choices, and a fresh fruit platter: other snacks like soft drinks, ice cream, and chips were available in the shop. They also had a separate hot a la Carte menu. Snorkeling, diving, swimming all available with a coral bed and much more fish including: giant starfish, parrot fish, angel fish, large fish ~2-3' long, 1 big eel and a 4.5' blacktip shark following around a little fish (non human aggressive per Wikipedia). Trip includes an island tour which was fun to see all the area they're going to excavate (including cannons from 1905 with bullet holes on the side) and land they're going to build. Overall a great day and an awesome resort experience! Thanks Ruth!
