A Day at Stilts, Calatagan Batangas

Dreaming of visiting in a world class overwater villa in a luxurious private resort in Maldives but you are in a low budget? Well, worry no more because Batangas, Philippines has its own local version of Maldives inspired resort, the Stilts Calatagan Beach Resort. It may not as fancy and extravagant as what maldives can offer but it could still give you a relaxing and blissful beach experience!


We planned for just quick weekend getaway, good thing it is just few hours away from Manila located at Barangay Sta. Ana, Calatagan Batangas. Thanks to waze app for a smooth trip. We left Manila around 6:00am.




For only P385.00/head inclusive of entrance, swimming pool and use of other facilities. Nice place, clear sea water, fine white sand beach and a scenic view of overwater cottages and garden. They offer lots of activities like island hopping, ride an atv, snorkeling nd more! 



We availed the Sand bar and snorkeling tour for P1500/4pax. You will be transferred to the boat area via pickup car which is just few minutes away.



The sand bar is just few minutes boat ride. The sand bar is really great! We got to enjoy the entire sand bar because there was no other tourists at that time. 



Unfortunately , we did not continue to go to the snorkeling site because of the strong waves when we were on our way there. Though it was tolerable but of course safety first. They just refunded our payment for the snorkeling tour.

When we returned, we did not enjoy swimming at the beach since it was low tide and even at the other side of the beach is rocky so we decided to stay at the swimming pool. 

A few minutes walk if you want to go to the other side of the beach, though you can ride a shuttle if you want. Most of the cottages for day tour is located in that side of the beach.

Over all, we enjoyed our day tour! But better to stay overnight maybe to maximize the stilts experience.
