We arrived at Batis Aramin Resort and Hotel on the morning of May 14. We had a room reserved there since October of last year through our cousin Ate Weng who works there {and who also happens to be a relative of the owner}. We are going to see the Pahiyas Festival the next day which is gonna be held at the town proper located just 15 minutes away from this resort. Perfect, right?
We knew how many were going to we reserved a room which can accommodate at leat 11 people. They gave us a room at the Marikit building which contains 5 singles beds and 3 bunk beds…a bed for each person! The rate is ₱5,300/ night but we were able to get a 30% discount and paid only ₱7,420.
Daytour at Batis Aramin costs ₱120 for adult and ₱100 for children. Overnight rate is ₱180 for adult and ₱150 for children.

After checking out of Bellaroca, we took a tricycle and a jeepney going to Boac. we had reservations here at The Boac Hotel which is think is the most decent hotel in town. It was a Sunday, almost all establishments are closed except for the church, the gift shop and the hippest restaurant at the plaza.
The history, rich culture and the traditions of this small town are the first thing you will notice upon entrance in the lobby as well as in the interior design of the hotel, giving it the ambience of a cozy old home. If you’re on the coward side, it might give you a little bit of a “bahay-ni-lola” feel or haunted hotel feel. Nevertheless, I found it homey
I love this chandelier! It reminds me of the scene in Coraline where in she had dinner in the “other mother’s” house and the other mother was trying to lure her with a lavish spread. Different flavors of smoothies were served in a “chandelier-like” container like this. It automatically went down so Coraline can get a glass of smoothie.
We got this Family Deluxe room for P2,000. It has two double beds, an a/c, a bathroom, towels, soap and shampoo. The bathroom was really small but there was a water heater. What you can see for yourself is what you get. It is a really small room!!
We reserved all the water activities for our last day in Bellaroca. We made sure that we had a heavy breakfast because aside from the water activities, we’d also be commuting to the town of Boac later in the day.
We started with Wind Surfing. Our deal said all non-motorized water activities are for free but they charged us ₱1,100 for an hour of wind surfing. It was kinda difficult because you need to balance yourself while holding that thing that makes you sail {LOL, I don’t know what its called} and there was very little wind that day.
