Hotels Near View point in Mariveles

Las Casas Filipinas de Acuzar is a picture perfect place until you have to live in it. Our family (6 adults + 2 children) stayed here overnight. The only means to reach your hotel room is through a jeepney / coaster ride. We were checked in before 3pm, but was only able to enter our room at 4pm. The closest food vendor was already closed even though its advertised operating hours is up to 6pm. We had to wait for 2 more hours before another restaurant opened. The beach is about a minute walk from your hotel room which was fantastic. However, all restaurants, vendors are a 10 minute walk from the hotel room. Imagine a 10 minute walk under a scorching summer sun. You could take a jeep to the town square, that is if you're lucky enough to catch one. The facility is broken down into multiple areas. This is both a feature & a limitation. If you like long walks and beautiful views, this is perfect. If you're travelling with a disabled person or with small children, this is a challenge. There was an easter egg hunt the following morning, and plenty of walking and jeepney tours to be had. The place is even more beautiful at night, with all the lights and festivities. Come the end of our stay, we checked out around 12nn. However we were picked up by a jeep roughly around 1pm. The checkout process was relatively easy, but again , it was our trip back to the front of the resort / parking area that took a while. Overall it was a pleasant vacation. The resort crew were very nice and helpful. I would recommend others visit the place and enjoy a day trip instead.
