The breeze of the resort is also nice and you won’t see too much dirty plastic around. When you see Tagbungan Mountain Resort in person you can say that you have been to paradise.

I liked their resort because it relieves fatigue even after a long trip. I really like to travel to faraway places, as long as I know it’s ok and there are no bad comments about the resort, I immediately put it on my bucket list for the next visit.

What makes it even better is that you have multiple pool options to swim in. The first pool from the height is 4 to 3 ft deep and the second pool is 3 ft. The 3rd pool is 2 to 3 ft and from 4 to 7 year old can bathe here. The fourth pool is only for adults because it is 5 to 6 ft deep. The fifth one is only 1 ft deep but wide and the final six pools are only 5 ft

According to my experience here, it is better to go earlier because you can really see the crystal clear water, and if you go in the afternoon and there are many people swimming, the color of the water has changed a bit, although it is still clean.
