A Balinese oasis in the heart of Batangas

With the COVID-19 pandemic still pretty much part of our present-day realities, most international travel plans are, sadly, beyond arm’s reach. Good thing, there are getaways in the country that allow you to have a feel of some of the major tourist destinations abroad.

One of these is Cintai Corito's Garden Batangas. “Cintai” (pronounced cheen-tai) means “love” in Bahasa Indonesia, and true to its name, this resort will give you so many reasons to love your stay. One need not book a ticket to Bali, Indonesia to experience the island paradise famed for its mesmerizing natural beauty and mystical culture. A Batangas staycation is all you need to experience these delights!

Cintai Coritos’s isn’t just for the grown-ups - kids are in for a lot of fun, too! Aside from the playground, Cintai is also home to free roaming animals such as alpacas and mini horses!

Recharge with their Delightful Food and Drinks

You wouldn’t have to worry about lunch or dinner, too, because their in-house restaurant Abadi serves mouthwatering local and international dishes that fill the tummy and satisfy the palate. Their tinolang manok and chicken satay with peanut sauce are must-tries! On top of their sumptuous fares, Abadi’s interiors are a feast for the eyes. You will be whisked to Bali, Indonesia as soon as you walk through its doors. They also have an al fresco dining area which allows you to enjoy your food while relishing the resort’s fresh air and verdant surroundings.
