CML Beach Resort & Water Park

Property was clean. Entry to the beach closes early (5:00pm). We ordered a snack (hotdog and fries) it took an hour to serve and the reason given was they only have one cook.

Staff is absolutely wonderful, I stayed 4 nights, they helped me with 2 full day excursions. they had 2 employees take us to a nice Batangas beach resort with white Sand , swimming, personal beach hut, good restaurant on that excursion all in their resort vehicle. One other excursion is an island hopping trip to Bauan beach (4,000 Php)area where they allowed us to have lunch at a resort called Destino’s(awesome place wow). Food at CML is very good, just make sure to inform the waiter if you want the American breakfast, otherwise you will get the Filipino breakfast. Swimming in the main area with water slide was so much fun, our 4 year old son had a blast. Maintenance staff will literally turn on all water pump equipment when they see you in the pool and seem to double as lifeguards. Only problem was tv has no internet fed to it , so basically, tvs have zero function. WiFi at the resort works but not in all rooms, in that situation, walk to an area closer to router. You should probably ask for a room closer to the beach because that seems to be where their router is located. The actual beach is dark black in color and not really attractive in a sense. The strengths of the resort are great staff customer service and fun pool equipment that kids will go crazy for. Great food. Resort centrally located among many other Batangas attractions. Take a bus to Lemery from Manila for only 266 php per person. Or rent car.

The hotel caught fire the night before we got there, and they were not able to notify us. As a result they were not able to accommodate us and they had to transfer us to another hotel nearby. It wasn’t a good experience but fortunately the staff were nice, polite and helpful. We stayed on the other hotel for 3 nights but we didn’t enjoy our stay at all because there wasn’t any activities to do in that hotel aside from the swimming pool. Not worth the trip!

The Breakfast Buffet is delicious, a lot of food to choose from. The staff are very nice and helpful. View from the room is phenomenal (stayed by the beachfront 4th floor). Enjoyed riding the Banana Boat and walking on the floatable island.

The staff are very nice and accomodating. The pools are really clean. The kids enjoyed the pool slide. Breakfast is delicious.
