Sierra Madre Resort and Country Club Tanay - Day2

We woke up early to start the day. We'd like to see the sunrise in the mountains and have an early breakfast so we can go down the hill and see if we'd like to swim as Sierra Madre has 2 swimming pools but you have to go downhill to see it . I had daing na bangus for breakfast and tapa for my Hubby both with coffee which cost us around Php300. The price is just right for the meal. After the sumptuous breakfast, we headed straight to the pool but we brought our car because my hubby doesn't want to walk that far because the stairs are kinda steep.



These photos shows the entrance of the Sierra Madre Resort, the Reception Area, Dining or Restaurant Area and the Music Lounge with piano and sound system where you can pay for the Videoke.

We first visited the prayer mountain, since it's Good Friday we paid respect to the Holy Mountain where you can do the traditional Station of the Cross. The last cross would be on the top of the mountain which we did not visited because it needs some trekking to reach it. There's also a Chapel where they conducted a Mass.

The photos below are the 2 swimming pools with overlooking view of the mountains.

The rest of the photos are the places inside the resort where you can roam around and unwind. The view of the mountains is enough to commune with nature, there's also a waterfalls in the resort but I did not go down to the third level because no one's going there and the grasses are tall.

Sierra Madre Resort and Country Club Tanay - Day1

This has been a long overdue review of Sierra Madre Resort and Country Club where we spent our 1st Year Wedding Anniversary on a Holy Week. We booked a room for two nights and was able to get there at around 6pm of Holy Thursday because we were in Quezon in the morning to join my Hubby's Scooterista Ride. Since we do not have enough sleep yet, my Hubby just slept as soon as we were settled. I went out to check the vicinity and was caught by the lovely moon which I took photos on but I found the first 3 photos kinda creepy because of the moonlight effects and the shadows of the pine trees. It looks like it came from some foreign ghost movies.

After taking photos of the moon, I roamed around to see what else to photograph in the vicinity. The bridge and the gazebo are photo friendly since they are lighted during the night. I love how the pine trees are situated at the back of the hall because it gives a nice effect on my photos.

This is the view of the rooms overlooking the mountains. The lights are nice but my photo is kinda blurred. Then I also got a photo of our room just to show you how it looks like. The room is big enough for two persons. It has a toilet and bath but with no air condition because it's always cold here, an electric fan is enough to cool the room down.

Here's a shot of a rainbow during our trip going to Sierra Madre before dusk. We were so fast that I didn't get a good shot of the rainbow as there are electric cables and post in the photo. I remember capturing rainbows in Pagudpud which are more clear and has a good view at the background.
