in Pinmapple4 years ago (edited)

Located in Barangay Tagdo, in Camiguin Island, the place is situated at the foot of Mount Hibok-Hibok which is known for its forest reserves. The resort is 5 kilometres away from the National Highway and very much accessible to any mode of land transportation and if you are a tourist, you can rent a motorcycle for a day which costs 500 pesos a day (more or less USD10) but if you dunno how to drive, local tour guides are available for a cheap price.

So, this is the most famous spring on the island as it offers hot springs. The resort is exceptionally clean and well maintained. The source of the water is directly from the mountain filling in and going out in the pool 24/7. The place is like in the middle of a forest as its surrounding is filled with trees and plants.

You can bring your own foods and just rent a cottage otherwise, there are local vendors outside the resort that sells food for a reasonable price.

There are 4 different divided pools, and each level determines a different temperature from warm to hot. The hot spring is believed to have a healing power that is why a lot of people purposely come to the island. When I was young, I have heard a lot of times that this hot spring resort is the best.

The Second pool has the deepest part (6 ft. deep) where you can enjoy swimming.

This is the smallest yet the hottest pool. We dipped here for more than 15 minutes. Though our body has adjusted on the previous 3 pools, the water temperature is high in this tiny pool. It’s hot but it gives a nice feeling in the body. With closed eyes, I savoured the moment and have my body relaxed in the water. It is just the best relief for my tired body.

A Must

If Camiguin Island is part of your itinerary in the Philippines, I highly recommend this resort. Not only because it is cheap, but the total relaxation your body will have just dipping on the hot springs is worth it. Your body needs it.
