NAVAL DE SAN ANDRES, SIRUMA, CAMARINES SUR, PHILIPPINES

  • 2 years ago
Naval De San Andres is a perfect retreat place for the one doing a soul search, making personal reflection, or wanting to escape the hustle-bustling without getting detached from the community and essential accessibility. Naval De San Andres is a private farm resort located in the town of Siruma, Camarines Sur, Philippines.
Here, keeping away from the contaminant environment of the city just for a while or day does not require extra effort. Because the resort is within walking distance from the town’s commercial area; however, despite the close distance to the town center, the moment you set foot inside the premise, you will be in complete seclusion, away from the noises of the city.
All that will greet you are the sounds of the forest, the swaying, and raging ocean waves, and the squeaking wild birds perching on the tree tops.
You will have the chance to experience going back to the traditional way of living back when electricity was still unavailable, living in a hut without any modern utensils, and cooking foods in a conventional manner using firewoods. You can choose whether to use traditional lighting, a kerosene-fuelled lamp, or electricity power at night.
The cottages are built using indigenous materials available inside the farm alone, designed to make you sense the simplicity of life back then.

Commercially is not operational yet at the moment, but should you wish to grab the opportunity to visit and use the place for your hideaway escapade, you can arrange it with the owners.
