Batangas Country Club is hands down the best hotel choice anywhere south of Manilla, and of course in the port city of Batangas. An absolute gem in every sense, easily exceeding standards and expectations of even jaded and picky travelers. Rooms and suites are superb, nicely furnished, bright and airy, quiet and comfortable, with a great AC. The WiFi – top level, excellent for work and streaming too. Good cable TV line up too. You have an excellent gym and spa available every day, morning to evening. Their amazing large pool and the surrounding plush area are in a perfect shape. The maintenance staff somehow manages to keep it in such immaculate condition yet remain invisible to the relaxing folks around the pool. The same goes for their housekeeping staff, a far cry from the US style of ever-present loud staff with loaded carts and radios – the BCC staff will do their superb job without even being noticed, always ready and available in a matter of minutes. The property is away from the downtown craziness, so yes, you will have peace and quiet in exchange for the distance. There is also a car with a driver available to take you to the city and bring back, free and on the first-come first-served basis. Or get a jeepney for a few bucks, at least that is not an issue anywhere in SE Asia! In addition to the perfect condition of the property, the staff seems to be their main asset, always available, yet positive, polite, cheerful and just seem happy to be there. The restaurant deserves a special mention – the food itself may be that one, sole and sufficient reason to visit BCC. I understand they have a new chef, Noah, who has now implemented a new menu and it is an absolute delight. From their early wonderful, free breakfast, thru great lunch time choices, ending with a variety of dinner options – it’s an all-day feast. Last but not least, this property is not pricey. You get what you pay for, this is a relaxing resort. Try to explore your downtown options and see what you get there - very likely it will be a subpar experience there. Whatever brings you to the south, this hotel seems like an obvious choice to stay!
