The Playa Calatagan Leisure Tourism Estate is Landco’s playground for innovative resort living experiences and concepts — all meant to cater to local and foreign tourists, families, and corporate guests.
With Aquaria, Landco moves closer to its goal of making Playa Calatagan and the rest of the province (where Landco has four other premier residential and agri-tourism projects) one of the country’s most preferred tourism, leisure, and recreational destinations. Landco also plans to put up a world-class seaside condominium near Aquaria, just a few steps away from the beach.
Landco recently treated a select group of guests for them to experience what Aquaria leisure resort has to offer. These lucky guests did some all-day partying in the world-class beach resort, enjoying various beachside activities like soccer, volleyball and frisbee. They also participated in water sports like kayaking, jet ski, wind surfing, stand-up paddle (SUP) boards, and boating.
All these activities naturally made everyone very hungry, so by lunchtime they were served grilled dishes, including lobsters, prawns, squid, chicken legs, beef kebab, and pork belly — these were perfectly matched with refreshing lemon grass tea, freshly squeezed fruit juices, and liquor from the bar right beside the Sands restaurant by the beachfront.
The guests enjoyed the fresh sea breeze, retired to strategically located hammocks where they either read a book or simply daydreamed amid the peaceful, serene atmosphere.
Those who could not wait to enjoy the swimming pools and the beach proceeded to the air-conditioned locker rooms (there are separate areas for ladies and men). Beside the locker rooms are individual showers with adjoining dressing areas and toilets.
Upon leaving the shower rooms, the guests passed through a series of coved pools. One is a kiddie pool with overhead sprinklers; another is a sunken pool bar; the highlight is the main pool with a three-story giant pool slide. There are also wooden cabanas and cove pool cabanas all around. The pools are equipped with a lot of floaters to assist swimmers. Even those who don’t swim can very well enjoy the pools with these floaters helping them stay above the water.
Aquaria charges P400 per head for adults and P200 per head for children. These fees let visitors stay at the resort for the whole day. The smaller cabanas cost P1,000 for whole-day use while bigger ones that are good for 10 people cost P1,500 per day.
For now, Landco allows families to bring in foodstuff and their own barbecue equipment, provided that they keep the beach and the facilities clean. Meals can also be bought from the Sands dining pavilion since the company has a restaurant concessionaire. Liquor and non-alcoholic beverages can also be bought from the square-shaped open bar beside the restaurant.
Chairs and tables are available for rent by families and groups of guests, so they can eat right along the spacious beachfront. Sunbathers can have a lovely time at the sun loungers’ area, which has jumbo umbrellas; when things get too hot, they can easily refresh themselves at the pool bar.
