The sun already took a glimpsed and the scorching heat of summer was evident. However, the view of the whole resort enticed me to go out of the shaded cottage and take a panorama look of the whole scenery.
I felt the warmth air but I was unable to resist the refreshing burst of colors from the grass, trees, flowers and water. I took a stroll and tucked my camera.
The lawn was an inviting green carpet of neatly trimmed grass, the dainty chic floras blast their nature’s color palette. I grasped the pleasure to observe a flying sparrow and a resting roan-colored horse. The jovial sound of laughter and splatter of water satiates my soul.
Ester Grand Villas is truly an ideal place to bond with my family.
It’s our first time at Ester Grand Villa this summer. I learned about it from the internet while looking for a nearby resort for my husband’s family outing.
Actually, we were looking for a resort that have a not-so-cold swimming pool water for our kiddos, and not-so-far place. Its because my family loves to bring alot of stuffs and prepare alot of foodies when going to an outing! Tough, noh? haha!
We’re a little worried about how crowded it would be so my sisters-in-law and I decided to take a look at it first . We all find it irresistible the first time we saw it – perfect for us!
I don’t even know that we have such an impressive resort in Santa Cruz! I felt it right away that this would be a great venue for us so I made a phone call to their pleasant part owner, Mr. Hector Audine and met the very gracious Ms. Lynn Orijuela.
Their reservation process is no sweat. They even gave me a call an hour before our scheduled time of arrival.
Let me narrate to you our wonderful experience with Ester Grand Villa. This my way of showing how grateful our family are to Mr. Hector and Ms. Lynn.
THE MANSION. The farm mansion sits elegantly with its beauty and character with intimate view of life in Santa Cruz, Laguna. You can wander up to the mansion’s balcony and take the breath taking view of four acres farm land and landscaped garden, waterfall feature and swimming pools.
THE LANDSCAPE. The modern architecture blends effortlessly with the surrounding gardens. The outdoor pools are surrounded by well-maintained landscape and shaded by scattered palms and coconut trees.
THE OUTDOOR SHOWER. Take a walk-through shower in natural warm spring water before swimming in the outdoor warm spring pool.
THE PAVILLION. Ester Grand Villas offers their pavilion located at the poolside. Beside it is the bar restaurant which is still under construction. The resort has its own water supply and vast assortment of cuisine local fruits, fish and vegetables dishes all available on request.

THE SWIMMING POOLS. The swimming pools are installed with the best modern filtration and treatment equipment, for all year round use, including ozone and saline systems.
Many guests and nationwide athletes have used the pool for training purposes. Mood lighting is one of the pools main features. “It's not as simple as just dimming the lights,” The pool delivers bright and cheerful moods during the night, It can have a calmer, more subdued mood.
Our family enjoys all their swimming pools. The location of each pool is very interesting.
Kids love their kiddie pool specially the other kiddie pool with waterfall curtain! Kiddie pools are child friendly, the deepest is 2Ft.
Everyone took a splash in the sparkling water of our magnificently-designed curvilinear swimming pools and are partly shaded my palm trees. When you dipped into the pool, the warm water is just at the right temperature. This made us stay longer in the water just relaxing in the wading pools and Jacuzzi.
THE JACUZZI. The outdoor Jacuzzi has natural warm water where everyone can soak and relax to your heart’s content.
THE COTTAGES. Ester Grand Villas has great set of native nipahut cottages which are spacious and nestled under shady coconut trees to feel the vibe of the provincial flair.
These cool and cozy nipahuts were all well-maintained and very affordable. Each cottages have built-in grill, and sink and has the capacity of up to 20 pax. It has large table and around it are horizontal concrete benches.
I like their little kitchen, all you have to do is bring your own cooking paraphernalia or request utensils from the resort personnel.
THE VIDEOKE. Sing your heart out. Avail their videoke facility and have it installed in the cottages.
THE RESTROOM.
When night comes, torches and antique lamps lit the whole resort. It equally matches the stunning beauty of the resort great for stargazing.
Swimming pools and Jacuzzi have underwater lights. The pathways are also well-lighted and you will be treated to a magnificent view of the resort’s surrounding area at night.
I am really satisfied with EGV Resort facilities and with its efficient customer service. I would definitely keep coming back to this resort. Now I understand why EGV is making a name for themselves.
