Take a glimpse of how nice it is at El Masfino Hotel & Resort! I’m giving everyone a chance to win an overnight stay for two so make sure to read until the end of this post. :)


Upon arriving, we had to fill up forms and present a valid ID for us to be assigned in a room. The staff are very accommodating and are very willing to assist us with any of our requests! :)


You can also request for a golf cart service if you want to go from one building to another especially if you have kids or senior citizens with you who couldn’t walk that far.
Rooms & Rates
They have a total of sixteen (16) deluxe rooms and four (4) suite rooms. They are looking into the possibility of expanding so they can accommodate more guests. I got to share a deluxe room with my roommate Eunis. :)
Deluxe Room
My roommate, Eunis, and I had a comfortable stay in our room, that we almost didn’t want to go out anymore which could be pretty obvious on this photo. Haha.
There are two beds available and an extra bed can be provided for kids.


Please forgive us if the room was messy since I took the photos when we were about to check-out. Hehe. The room is very spacious for us! It is also complete with a bathroom, cabinet, mini bar, TV, and a vanity area!






Also, look at this beautiful view from our balcony. Wouldn’t you love waking up to this view? :)

Amenities & Activities
As much as I wanted to stay in the room all day, I can’t resist to go out and check how gorgeous the whole place is! There’s so much you can do aside from sleeping in the room. Hahaha.
Lap Pool and Wave Pool
It could have been better if I took a dip in the pool but I didn’t bring swimwear with me. :( There are swimwear available for sale at the lobby but I don’t have the confidence to wear two-piece swimsuits yet. Haha. Maybe next time I’ll try the pools. :)

KTV Room
There’s a KTV room available where you can sing your heart out but it is only open until 12MN and is on first-come first-serve basis. Therefore, make sure to reserve the room as early as you can.
Picnic Area and Playground
Kids and kids at heart would totally love this part! There are grilling stations in the picnic area and probably have a BBQ party!


Dune Buggies and Mountain Bike Rental
For the adventurous ones, here you go! I got to try riding and driving the dune buggies for the first time! Due to the trail not being in a good condition, we just went around the cemented path. Haha. It is good for beginners since I didn’t have a hard time driving it. Hehe.


Beach Volleyball Area
Another activity you can try is perfect for the sporty types! There’s a beach volleyball area you can use as well. :)
Team Building Facilities
Because of the large space, it is also a perfect location for a team building activity. They also provide different obstacle courses for your group!
Golf Course
The golf course is probably my favorite part, despite the fact that I didn’t get to try golf. Still, it’s a good experience to tour around the golf course. It seems like you can stay here for hours, right? Just look at this amazing view!







Restaurant
In addition to these is the restaurant where you could fill up your tummies after the tiring activities.





NOTES
- They also offer Wifi but because the connection is so bad, I wasn’t able to use it during my entire stay. :( I couldn’t use my mobile data (Smart network) either. It might be because of how exclusive the place is. However, as my roommate said, Globe network seems to be working just fine. While it could be a disadvantage for those whose work needs an internet connection, some might find it good especially those who wants to disconnect from social media and just enjoy their stay.
- Bringing of food from outside is not allowed.
- Proper swimming attire is strictly observed.
- Pets not allowed inside.
How to Get There
El Masfino Hotel & Resort is open to members and non-members. Since the resort is very exclusive, going there might be a little difficult if you’re commuting.
- From Cubao, take a bus bound for Baliuag. Fare is around Php 75.
- Drop off Baliuag Town Proper.
- Hire a tricycle that will take you to El Masfino Resort inside Royal Northwoods Golf and Country Club.
Notes
- I’m not sure about the tricycle rates but you can probably try to haggle from how much they would ask.
- Also make sure to get your tricycle driver’s contact number and tell them to pick you up on your check-out date because there are no other transportation that could take you outside the country club.
It would be more convenient if you are going with your own vehicle. You can use your favorite navigation app to guide you on your way to El Masfino Hotel & Resort. :)
A Square Community Hub
Few kilometers from El Masfino is A Square, a community hub in Baliuag, Bulacan. It gives opportunities to aspiring entrepreneurs and offers affordable commercial spaces.
A Square has almost everything you need from restaurants, coffee shops, bags, shoes, salon, spa, furniture and gift shops. There are also offices for government services, banks, insurance and cable network services.







It also serves as a pit stop for those going up north. You can take a few minutes rest before driving back to your destination. Eat something or probably take a quick massage because why not? :)
The first ever open air bazaar in Bulacan will be opened in A square on July 23, 2017. This huge space will be the venue of the bazaar and it seems like it can house a lot of stalls!
For more updates follow A Square on Facebook!
