Dainty Scribbles: 88 RESORT

It's summer once again! :) We begin to feel the summer breeze out of unstable rainfalls. The heat of the sun and the aroma of generously drizzled land keeps us excited about getting wet and wild in beaches and exceptionally good resorts. Which reminds me of a very fine experience I had in Laguna inside a beautiful and majestic nature inspired hideaway - the 88 RESORT.

Set in the beautiful spa town of Calamba, Laguna and just 40 miles South of Manila is the place where luxury infuses with tradition. This is 88 Hotspring Resort & Spa.

Built at the base of the legendary Mount Makiling, our resort makes for a relaxing experience. Be in close proximity to lush rainforests and the largest lake in the Philippines, Laguna de Bay.

For hundreds of years, locals have been relying on Mount Makiling’s hot springs to heal and restore their bodies. We channel this miraculous water to flow into outdoor baths and spas for your enjoyment.

At 88 Hotspring Resort, the outdoor spa area spreads out to ten outdoor pools surrounded by well-maintained landscape and shaded by scattered palm & coconut trees.

The natural garden setting and the friendly service made it possible for us to receive an award from the Department of Tourism as the Best Resort in Laguna back in 2007.

It’s time to leave the city behind you. Relax, unwind and renew your body and soul in your own tropical oasis.
