Pinarik Eco Resort can be found just a few blocks away from our home. The good thing about the place is that we can go on a family get together without having much preparation. Since everything is within the city, we can visit the place anytime. The resort is perfect for busy people like me who still want to devote time to the family even at my busiest moments.
Where is Pinarik Eco Resort Located?
Showing below is a screenshot of Google map showing the location of Pinarik Eco Resort. Apparently, the place can be reached in less than 10 minutes. For me, accessibility is an important factor to consider when choosing a place a to go. For this, I would consider Pinarik Eco Resort as the most accessible place considering my home location.

It was a busy week for me because of several reports that I need to complete before the end of the month. My youngest sister who is currently working in Manila told me that she will be coming home on Thursday night to spend some time with the family. She was thinking to probably have a night out at a resort nearby. She couldn't decide at that time.
I asked my daughter to search for a good resort within the city. She recommends Pinarik Eco Resort which is located in a nearby village. I told my daughter to take charge of the booking and to get a room for the accommodation of my mother and my second sister who has small children with her.
Since I could not take a leave from work on Friday, I allowed my daughter to facilitate all the needed things regarding the family outing. Likewise, she needs to make sure that Mom will be taken care of as well as her cousins. I also instructed my son to check on the resort before bringing the family to the site. That is to make sure that the place is safe for children.
I instructed my daughter to book for a room where Mom and my sister's children could stay for the night. According to her, the room is good for four (4) persons but they could add another bed to accommodate six (6) persons. The resort is charging Php 600.00 ($12.00) per head for room accommodation inclusive of the use of the pool. However, if the purpose is only to swim, the entrance fee is Php 150.00 ($3.00) per person.
I left the office at 5:00 PM. I was expecting that the family will be staying in the place for an overnight swim. I was on my way when I was informed that they will only be staying until 11:00 PM. I was surprised because I was thinking that they will be staying at the resort for one whole night. But that's okay. They probably decided to stay in our home after they are done swimming. Well, at least we could still have time to talk.
I reached the house at 6:30 in the evening and the people already left. I prepared my things to follow them at the resort. My hubby already prepared the foods so that they may have something to eat when we come back at 11:00 PM.
The Entrance:

I find the entrance design to be a perfect representation of the place. With its name eco-resort, you can expect the place is made up of materials from natural resources.
How We Got the Information:
Gathering information is not anymore a problem nowadays because of the social media where customers can inquire regarding the amenities and the price. Pinarik Eco Resort has their official Facebook Page where customers can inquire regarding availability of the place on specific dates and time as well as the pricing. The resort has the rates posted on their page for easy reference:

At the reception area, you can also find the information you need. The management allows packed food to be brought in, however, eating by the poolside is not allowed.
The Pool Area:

The place is nice and you can say that it was designed for the whole family taking into consideration the children. The pools are round and the swimming pool intended for grown-ups are placed close to the children's pool. The pool area is spacious which can accommodate more or less 50 persons. The place is surrounded by nice looking palm trees which added to the refreshing temperature.

Since we went there at night, we witnessed the magnificent lights around the area. The place is well-lighted and the reflections of the lights make the place even more beautiful.

Near the children's pool is a mini playground. Though I haven't seen very small children playing around the area. It was probably because of the time I went there.

Just looking at the children enjoying the night swimming and playing around, I can say that it was really an awesome place for the whole family.
The Cottages:

The cottages are strategically placed around the pool area. This way, the parents can watch the children even if they are inside the cottage. There are also lifeguards who are roaming around and checking the people in the pool.

Cottages are made of natural bamboo materials which are truly comfortable. You would appreciate the place even if you intend to stay for a short talk with friends.
Other Facilities:
There are shower areas around and the restrooms are well maintained.
Conclusion:
Overall, the resort is a good place to visit and I am giving it a rating of 4 STARS.
Here is another video showing the beauty of the place. Enjoy watching!
