Before the summer ends, sinulit namin ang vacation with Martin's side of the family sa Pico De Loro. We spent 2 days and a night. There are lot of raves and reviews here. So we should try it to see and experience that Luxury. This is for members only. (I heard na it's open na daw for public but I'm not yet sure). You have to know someone who is a member of Pico. Good thing, a friend of a friend is a member. They own one of the condominiums in Pico. Staying in a condominium is way cheaper and practical than staying in a hotel which the last time I inquired (Peak Season) the room I chose for 4pax (2 adult, 2 kids) cost around 12,800 I think. For additional person, you have to pay additional fee that time its around like 2k and of course additional mattress for additional charge. Puro addition? :D But if your'e staying in the hotel, free charge for the use of pool and facilities which is 1k per head. 500 for Off Peak Season. We rented the condominium for 7k/night for 6 pax. (For us, 6 adult and 1 child). I didn't asked the owner of the condo if we can cook and bring food and wala naman nakaisip na it's okay since condo nga sya. You can bring foods and can cook pala, they have available utensils and kitchen wares na. Sayang. Ang laking tipid sana. So we ended up eating sa hotel which is expensive.
Upon registration pala, you were given a cash card which is amounted to 1k+ that you can reload and use for the foods and facilities. Before I forgot, they don't accept cash here! Everything is charged to you Credit Card! So Imagine how much we spent for the entire vacation. (Actually my mother in law was the one who paid for everything).
Pictures muna.

We arrived late in the afternoon na, kaya we didn't enjoyed much the cove since pag 6pm pala everybody should be out of the water na. For Safety purposes. The cove is nice naman. The sand is gray and super fine. Sayang I didn't took photos of the whole place, they have resto by the cove, pero sabi for members only, maganda sya. Hindi ako nagka chance magkukukuha ng details ng bongga since I don't brought Kirsten's yaya with me and gusto nya lagi "Mommy Only" and ako kasi aligaga mag alaga sa anak ko, bukod don, she's not feeling well. She has cough and colds, her pedia prohibited her na mag swim. So super nakabantay ako baka bigla lumublob sa tubig, and it happened. Sobrang inis ako. Oh well. So on that night, she has fever. Ayan na nga. Ang hirap. I was awake the whole night, monitors and carry her all the time. She has fever, cough, and she can't breathe. Ang hirap hirap hirap lang. Bangag na bangag talaga ako. Puyat, pagod, sakit ng katawan. Lahat na sinalo ko. Gustong gusto ko umiyak kasi awang awa ako sa anak ko at awang awa ako sa sarili ko.
Hay. And kudos to Pico de Loro, they have 24/7 lifeline. Martin called the reception and asked if they have clinic where we can get medicine. After 30 minutes, 2 nurses went in our unit. They checked Kirsten's temperature and gave her medicine. And they said na if she has fever pa after an hour, we'll call them again and they will be back at 6am (2am sila nagbigay ng med). So natuwa ako dun kasi may ganong help sila which is ang laki laking tulong talaga. They monitored and gave kirsten medicine every 4 hours.
Hindi rin kami nakapag swimming that night sa pool, of course, I have to take care of my baby. Gusto kasi nya "Mommy Only" (yan ang lagi sinasabi nya pag gusto nya ako gumawa ng mga bagay bagay at mag alaga sakanya". She cries every time I get lost of her sight. But the pool at night is nice. Maganda yung lightning effect nya. You have 2 free towels pala, 50 each for additional.
So next morning, nag ikot ikot nalang kami. We brought her bike. Picture picture para di sayang.
They have this shuttle ride.
The pool area.
The cove. Before she totally get sick.

So if you're going to ask me how's my Pico de Loro vacay? *_*
Well, I would love to go back, the place is not too crowded, relaxing and beautiful. But please walang may sakit. And next time, we'll bring our own food. :)
