Sun, sand, and sea -- these are the three major must-haves for an ideal getaway. At the right moment, these three factors when combined produce some of the best times.
Out of the 7,107 islands and thousands of miles of coastline, there is one place in the little town of San Juan, Batangas, called Laiya cove, which is about five kilometers of white sand beach, calm waters, and spectacular view. From sunup to sundown, the peaceful ambiance of Laiya never fails to make its visitors long to stay nestled in its warmth forever.
Along this stretch of sandy heaven is a spot called Laiya White Cove Beach Resort, a little corner of paradise. Pulling up from the main road down to the gates and the welcoming area, it was like walking into a secret garden. With exotic vegetation covering the vast expanse of the main court yard, the feeling of isolation sets in and eases the mind right away.
The façade of White Cove exudes a contagious calmness that emanates from the vastness of the space available to guests and visitors. The resort also has a hall where its staff holds weekly Sunday masses.
Found at the Aplaya area of Laiya, which is the central part of the shoreline, the resort lies along the part of the beach ideal for swimming. With a relatively flat sea bed 400 meters off shore, anyone can enjoy the cool crystal clear waters.
After the sun sets, the resort takes on a life of its own. Magnificent lights adorn the facility, turning it into a veritable wonderland.
The place is designed to host large groups and can easily accommodate any function, from corporate events, company outings, family occasions, or a simple family getaway.
Minus the traffic, San Juan, Batangas, is accessible by road with a mere three-hour drive from Metro Manila. Laiya cove boasts of a tropical island ambiance without the hassle of sea travel, a perfect destination for beach lovers and those looking for a relaxing retreat.
