La Luz Beach Resort

It was a goal for us to go to the beach during Holy Week. Our target was the beach strip of Brgy. Laiya, San Juan, Batangas. However, due to procrastination, we ended up only staying for one night - Holy Wednesday night. By the time we came around to booking a resort, only Holy Wednesday night at La Luz was available.

We've been hearing good things about La Luz from our friends and we were not so disappointed with the resort.

The amenities were satisfactory. Our room's distance from the beach was just right; not too near, not too far. The food (P1,050 for 4 meals for an overnight stay) was okay according to my standards, not my mother-in-law's. The beach looked beautiful but the sand was horrible. Correction. They didn't have sand, they had pebbles. Ouch! I have to remind myself to bring aqua shoes next time I visit. However, waters were great for snorkeling.

It was a pretty resort but, honestly, not one that I'd go back to unless they grind their "pebbles" to smaller bits.
