Sinagtala Farm and Retreat Resort

Sinagtala Infinity Pool

My husband and I had a nice Sunday at Sinagtala Farm and Retreat Resort. Thanks to Groupon PH! I availed of the Groupon deal way back in June 2012 for a one-night stay good for 2 people at Sinagtala Farm and Retreat Resort. I got interested with it since it was a 50% off deal, from 2000php to 1000php. Also, I haven’t been to Bataan so it was a good reason to finally visit the historical province which is just 2-3 hour drive from Manila.

Our Mission is to Remember - A Visit to the Shrine of Valour

The next stop of our Bataan adventure was the Mount Samat National Shrine popularly known as the Dambana ng Kagitingan (Shrine of Valour). Since this was a budget trip, my husband and I planned on going there through public transportation like jeepneys. From the Balanga Plaza de Mayor, we walked going north along Aguirre Street, passed through a river bridge, and continued along Calero Street. We saw the Bataan Terminal after a few minutes of walk. It wasn’t that far really if you’re not afraid of the heat of the sun. We looked for the jeepney bound for Cabog-Cabog. Fare was 17php. We were the first passengers but it didn’t take long before the jeepney was filled.

A Quick Tour in Balanga, Bataan

My husband and I had one wonderful weekend in the historic province of Bataan. We were able to avail a discounted room at Sinagtala Farm and Retreat Resort, thanks to Groupon PH. But before proceeding to the resort, we explored first some of the historical sites of the province.
