Summer springs anew at Sol Y Viento Resort
MANILA, Philippines - Laguna means happy memories by the poolside with friends, families and colleagues, especially during this summer. The province is well known for many resorts and places where recreation is in high prominence due to the abundance of natural hot springs. Above everything, this is a place where the sun and wind converge, offering a majestic view of Laguna de Bay and Mt. Makiling.
What started out as a retreat and training location for a hospital and university magnate, Sol Y Viento Pansol is now a full-service resort, offering a wide array of amenities and a conference center in one. According to the property’s general manager, Eva Sembria, “The resort’s full potential is yet to be realized.â€
Sol Y Viento Pansol is positioning itself as one of the top leisure and meeting destinations in the region, keeping in mind not only the splendor of the place and its unparallel service, but also the health advantage with every guest’s stay.
The Spanish phrase “sol y viento†literally means “sun and wind.†Located at Makiling Heights in Calamba, Laguna, Sol Y Viento offers a perfect spot for families and groups to spend their summer. The property boasts of a natural supply of artesian hot spring mineral water oozing out from the legendary Mt. Makiling, noted to be naturally therapeutic.
In the coming months, the resort will open 132 newly appointed and tastefully designed hotel rooms, 16 restored cabana suites with indoor natural hot spring Jacuzzi, and 36 team rooms. Each room overlooks the bay and mountain ranges and is equipped with individually controlled air conditioning units, hot and cold shower, cable TV, mini bar, and Internet access.
Indulge in gastronomic pleasures at Café Sabroso where an assortment of specialty and local dishes is served. Also, opening soon is a chill-out bar where guests can relax and order any of the house-blend cocktails or leisurely sip a glass of wine while enjoying the magnificent view of Laguna de Bay and the mountain ranges.
It’s not all fun and play though, as guests can revitalize their spirit and soul at the resort’s chapel and Stations of the Cross which are both part of the resort’s development plan. Sol Y Viento will always be indebted to God for all the glory and blessings given to this extraordinary, exquisite and beautiful property.
Calamba is certainly one place you would like to visit this summer — and think of Sol Y, Viento.
