Laiya Road Trip

I have been checking out pet-friendly resorts within 100km radius (by land) for the last 3
months, and Sabangan Resort in Laiya, Batangas is our first stop.

Laiya is 3-4 hours by land via STAR Toll way.

Via private vehicle

Take the South Luzon Express Way (SLEX).
Take the Star Tollway at the end of SLEX.
Take the San Jose-Ibaan Exit.
Turn left at the intersection with a sign pointing to Rosario (Key landmarks: Ibaan Municipal Hall).
Turn right at the fork road pointing to San Juan.
Drive straight along the road to Rosario Town Proper (past Jollibee and South Star Drug) to reach San Juan Town Proper.
Upon entering San Juan Town Proper, drive towards the San Juan Municipal Hall and turn right immediately to head to the main road of Laiya.
Drive along this road to reach the resort.

See map below:


Via public transportation

Take ALPS Bus from the following terminals: EDSA Nepa Q-Mart, Araneta Center Cubao, Alabang Grand Terminal.
Earliest trip is at 3:00 AM and the last trip departs at 5:00 PM.
In San Juan (in front of the Municipal Hall), take a Laiya-bound or Hugom-bound jeepney (last trip is at 5:00 PM).


To check rates and availability, visit: https://www.sabangan.com.


Micmic (my 2-yr. old pomeranian) has been enjoying traveling by land, and this makes me want to explore more places that we can reach by car.



This is his first beach experience and I love how he enjoys the sand and the sea water.

Sabangan Beach Resort offers full board meals by the beach. They allow pets on most rooms and can roam around the resort as long as they are on leash.



We stayed in a bamboo bungalow room.
Rate is 10,000 per night for 3 adult guests and a pet.


We only stayed over night due to limited time, but enjoyed the sea breeze and the fresh Batangas air.



Until our next road trip. 😎
