Punta de Fabian, Baras, Rizal

Our office held its most recent planning workshop in Baras, Rizal. The venue was Punta de Fabian, which I had heard about before and passed by several times between trips to Laguna, Quezon and Bicol. Here are a few photos of the resort.

Infinity pool
The view from the infinity pool is quite splendid. That's Laguna de Bai and further you can see Mt. Makiling at the other side of the lake. Tanay town proper is the area between the tree and the pool.
Adult and kiddie pool near the building housing the lobby and indoor dining/restaurant. There are many outdoor eating spaces around the pool.
One of the outdoor dining areas across from the main building is this veranda type overlooking Rizal and Laguna towns including the lake.
This is the view when you descend from the resort to the highway just below it, which is the Manila East Road. I stopped my car to take this breathtaking photo of Laguna de Bai. Only the communications tower seem to be spoiling the view.
I thought that the resort is a good venue for out-of-town seminars. Also, it is a good place to escape to a quiet place. We checked the reservations and it is quite full during the weekends but then why would you want to escape into a crowded place? I think the best times to book would be on weekdays instead. Be wary of the traffic at Teresa town though. It can get pretty bad there. But for other parts of the trip it should be a leisurely travel.
