A Weekend Family Bonding in Treasure Island Resort, Olongapo, Zambales


After enjoying our time in Ocean Adventure, we headed to Olongapo City to check-in for an overnight stay. We booked a family suite room at Treasure Island Resort. We choose the resort because it is located at the beachfront and has a swimming pool. A place like this will definitely loved by the kids including me, who is young at heart.


Treasure Island Resort is a casual beachfront resort that is a minute's walk from the waters of Subic Bay. The resort is colorful. Rooms are simply decorated with feature free Wi-Fi, cable TV and mini-fridges. Upgraded rooms with some ocean views including sitting and dining areas. Family quarters includes sleeping alcoves and offer coffeemakers. They also offer diving packages.


Upon checked-in, I explored the resort and took some pictures. I strolled at the shore and waited for the sunset. It was fantastic. After taking a shower, we had our family dinner in the room. From a long ride and couple of hours in Ocean Adventure, I slept early. Unlike last year, we had a long night finishing bottles of beer and a glass of vodka and other liquor mixes. 


I had a good night sleep that made me wake up early. What else to do when most of my colleagues were still sleeping? I strolled the beach of Baloy Long Beach. If I go out of town, most of the time, I catch the sunrise. I even did some hill climbing to catch a picture perfect morning in Subic Bay. After an hour or two, I went back to the resort for breakfast.

After our breakfast, my nieces were so excited to hit the beach. They love playing in the shore. They also love swimming. We enjoyed the beach bonding while the sun was not yet strikingly hot. Took pictorials as usual. Clicked on the camera left and right. I selected few pictures which I think got my best angle in the beach. Forgive my not-so-good beach body. We continued our bonding moments at the pool later on. 



We definitely enjoyed our stay at the resort. We checked-out before 11:00 to take our lunch. We enjoyed a buffet lunch at Grill 99 Roast. They offer eat all you can during Sundays at 11:00-14:00. We made sure to have our stomach full before we went to our last summer destination: Zoobic Safari.
