8 Waves Waterpark and Hotel

 For those of us with children and would rather be spared of  long road runs, yet at the same time are the type who enjoy the beaches and what long distance trips could offer,   8 Waves may be the place to go. 8 Waves is a little over an hour drive from Makati City. When our family first checked in, it was sort of a last resort because the original plans of trooping to Montemar Beach Club or Matabungkay Beach Resort were getting dim at the last minute.  

 

We bumped into 8 Waves through internet search and were initially skeptical because we weren’t expecting much of Bulacan where it is situated. Our initial drivers were the fact that breakfast will be at Pancake House because we’d always dine in this restaurant, and secondly because 8 Waves boasts of having the largest artificial waves in Asia and that got our curiosity running.  

 

As we parked on our way in, we noticed that there’s a Mini Stop Convenience Store along the road and it’s also owned by 8 Waves. I thought its cool.   

 

Reaching the lobby, we knew in an instant we’re going to love 8 Waves. We were given coupons for night swimming, day swimming and breakfast at Pancake which were inclusive of whatever we had to pay per person.  We enjoyed the place that we unanimously decided it’s worth an extension for another night. Thankfully we were able to persuade the supposed next occupant to transfer to another suite as we’re still not over ours.  

 

<We also liked the way our rooms looked, most especially seeing my son having a great time with the eight (8) types of pools to choose from. Of course his favorite was the kiddie pool with Noah’s Ark for a theme. Second is the main pool with the largest waves.Personally I appreciated that its lobby has a baby grand piano and the fact that I was allowed to play some pieces in the evenings during my stay.
