    My girlfriend and I went to Eagle Point Resort, Batangas, Philipines in 2008. What a wonderful quiet place it is. It made a change from the hustle and bustle of Santa Cruz and we had a great 3 days break there. The staff were very friendly and the food was good.
    A nice relaxing break!!! Brilliant!
