There is a mid sized pool, there are rooms on the main building with the top providing expansive views of the beach. There are also several cottages that can be used during the day if they are not booked or occupied. The beach can stretch to over a hundred meters on ebb tide. Rooms open to the front verandas where you can set up for al fresco dining. Rooms are clean and has airconditioning. Smart TVs where you can plug downloaded movies. There is an outhouse for communal cooking with gas stoves and sinks provided as well as prep areas. This is important because dining out can only give you the same options at some point. There are also hammocks, outdoor seating and lounge chairs and dining huts by the beach side. There is a convenience store by the corner for small stuff if you forgot something. Staff are responsive and accommodating. Prices are reasonable and competitive.

We rented two huts for 8 people located in a remote location. Super cool, but make sure you bring $Pesos$ they don't accept credit cards and they don't accept US dollar. You drive to the end of nowhere and there you are. Last stop on a beat up road and you arrive at this oasis. Very secluded you can also make arrangements to Bbque by the beach in one of the huts. Bring your own Charcoal and food to cook (maybe next time) We just got fresh shrimp & squid (about 5"'s) & they cooked it for us by the beach. Life is rough. I could get use to this. The squid was chopped into small slices w/green peppers and oyster sauce simple, fresh and delicious. The shrimp were steamed with heads on and a large pan of rice.

Went here for a long needed vacation. Got the idea from a cousin who recently visited and thought…read moreit would be a good place for us to go outside the craziness of Manila, and he was right. Short 4 hours drive from the capital, it is one of 2 resorts of the same name. The second one is south of Manila. This one is located north in La Union. The area is not known for its ocean water or beaches but the location is a beautiful spot for relaxing and quietness. We were quickly checked in and found the room. There are a couple of food options located on premises. Try them but they are limited and just so-so. The breakfast is the best out of all the meals. The staff is friendly and accommodating so please be nice to them. Our suite was excellent. Good size, clean, ocean view, cold with AC and well stocked. Our only issue is the kind size bed was sagging in the middle and made it uncomfortable. The pools were all well maintained and clean. We were able to have the pool to ourselves at night since they close it at 10pm weekdays and 11pm weekends. Suggestion: use the pools at night. Less people and cooler. We were especially impressed with the lit flowers when the sun sets. They are spectacular. The spa is located a short walk from the main building, around the club house. They offer various services but always call first. Sometimes they are short staffed. Overall we thoroughly enjoyed our time at Thunderbird Resort. The staff was helpful and friendly. The lunch and dinner service could be better. Include the breakfast service. Highly recommended!

I wholeheartedly recommend that you visit Umingan and make the Bernadine Hotel your home away from home. My search for a comfortable and budget-friendly place in Umingan, Pangasinan, led me to the Bernadine Hotel, and I couldn't be happier with the discovery, This Hotel is an absolute gem, proving that affordability does not mean compromising on quality or service. If you planning a visit to Umingan, look no further for your accommodation.

Could not have asked for a better driver to take us around!

The service was pretty good overall! Though there were some small ups and downs like missing condiments or my cousin's Hawaiian burger missing pineapple but, the fries were definitely a highlight, hot and crispy. Prices are pretty affordable for tourists, and the view is absolutely stunning! Overall, it's a really cute resort with beautiful beach views. The prices are decent. If you're planning a big family trip, I'd probably recommend an Airbnb, but if it's just a few people, this could be the perfect spot. A lot of surfers come here, and for around $150 a night, you can get a family suite with 2 queen beds, pretty reasonable. Want something bigger? A 2-bedroom for 8 people with 4 queen beds runs about $330, which breaks down to roughly $45 per person per night if all 8 adults split it. Not bad at all for a fun beach getaway!

Relaxing, hidden, and far away from the hustle and bustle of Manila. Despite the distance, this…read moreresort was worth the 3.5 hour drive from Metro Manila. Crystal Beach is in the town of San Narciso in the Province of Zambales. The resort features air-conditioned rooms, cottages, and beachside camping tents. They also have WiFi in the main area. There are a few bon fire pits and grilling stations for anyone to use. We opted for a day entrance just to experience the food, beach huts, and the sand. The admission fee, parking, and cost of food were very reasonable. The long journey from Manila definitely made us hungry. We decided to try out their restaurant located in the main common area. Seating was easy and we also chose the table closest to the fan for comfort. We ordered sisig, tuna salpicao, halo-halo, rice, and sinigang na hipon. The sisig has a nice mix of crunch with a citrus-pepper marinade. The tuna salpicao was tender and flavorful. The shrimp sinigang, which is a true Filipino favorite, was sour and savory. Halo-halo came last as a dessert. The bowl was filled with various sweet toppings and a generous scoop of ube ice cream. Post lunch coma started to kick-in and we decided to relax in one of the many beachside huts. Beach chairs were available along with the perfect view of the mountains and blue waters. The beach was almost empty and quiet. There are available surfboard rentals and surfing lessons for anyone seeking to ride the small waves. Showers are available near the common area. I would recommend this resort to anyone seeking a tranquil escape.

The bar area is nice and open. There's a pool table as well. They have live music and karaoke on certain days. The bar gets pretty packed. A local hangout. The beer was cold, and stayed cold. I definitely appreciated that. I didn't get to try the food too much except for a few breakfast items. The bangus was great. Longanisa was good. It's the local savory type, not sweet. The tocino was the sweet kind. Corned beef was made with fresh corned beef. The calamansi juice is very sweet. I would stay here again. I'd recommend this place for travelers coming through. Breakfast is included with your stay!

One issue that I had was that the laundry, which was included with the stay, was not picked up on 2 of the 3 days it was utilized. then I had to ask for the last two days before checking out, and you could tell they rush-washed them. I'm not sure what was going on, but you would expect more from a hotel that charges that much a night. The breakfast area was okay but nothing impressive. I would classify it as overpriced for the buffet style of food, which was more about quantity than quality.

I gave her the cash of 4k, and she also asked for a credit card, not sure what it was for. So I handed her the credit too. And she gave me a receipt for 4k, and I thought that was the receipt for the cash I gave her. Didn't realized that she charge the 4k on the credit card and the receipt was for the card not the cash. So when I checked out, handed them the receipt and asked for my cash back. they told me that was for the card holding deposit which they will reverse so as not to charge my credit card/. And they asked for the cash receipt , but since I did not get one and assumed that the receipt I received was for the cash. They checked their video and was told that I did not gave her cash but only the credit card. Be careful with these hotel staff, of their modus operandi.
