A Luxurious Company Outing at Pico de Loro, Nasugbu, Batangas

Last Summer of 2013, our generous company hold our Corporate Outing at  Pico de Loro. Owned and managed by SM Land Inc., it  is one of the luxurious and premiere beach country club resort in Nasugbu, Batangas. Pico de Loro Cove is also a host to many renowned Triathlon and Regatta competition in the country.



Aside from the Pico Sands Hotel and the country club, several buildings of condominiums are sprawled along the picturesque man-made lagoon. Guests can either be the owners of the unit, club members and hotel guests to enjoy the facilities and amenities of the resort.

Pico Sands Hotel

The Hotel has a minimalist architecture and considering the rate, it doesn't have a look of a four or five star hotel. But this was ok for us as we are more after of leisure and facilities offered by the resort and not of the lobby :) On the plus side, they have an excellent customer service as one front desk personnel was assigned per corporate group booking. We are one of the five companies booked that day and we haven't experienced any delays in room check-ins.

Pico Bar and Restaurant

Pico Bar and Restaurant is located within the Pico Sands Hotel. Accordingly, this was the cheapest option for the meal requirement of our group. Price of the meal buffet for our group package range from Php1,000-1,300 per head. Over-all there are generous dishes spread in the buffet and most importantly the taste passed the meticulous tongue and palate of my officemates :) Lagoa and Sun Coral cafe are also some possible choices.
