88 Hotspring Resort and Spa - Laguna
Updated: October 30, 2020
Our adventure today will take us 46.11 kilometers south from kilometer 0 in Manila. The historic atmosphere still lingers due to the historical landmarks that you can see all around this place. One of the most famous landmarks this city has to offer is the Rizal Shine or more popularly known as Rizal's house. However I'm not here to give you a history adventure but instead, I will tell you the different side of this city.

Travelers and resort seekers who didn't read my blog The Adventurer's List would surely be unprepared for what's to come. It would surely take a day for you to choose and pick the most suitable resort for you, not to mention avoiding peddlers who would tell you about a "nice" resort only to be disappointed in the end when you see the resort with your own eyes.
 |
| Sunbathing or a dip in the hot spring would be nice for your health. (don't overdo it though!) |
Having been to Calamba City and experiencing the same disappointments a couple of times made me a wiser man. Hence, I learned to trust my instincts and Google.
 |
| Night time is best for taking a dip in one of their hot spring pools. The warm water vs the cold weather? Great! |
Last 2011 my wife and I stumbled upon a very magnificent resort (according to Google.)
88 Hotspring Resort and Spa proved to be a real deal and not just a marketing hullabaloo created on the internet.

ReplyDeleteHi anonymous! Yup the small kubo will fit two people. =) 88 Resort has their own website.
DeleteThank you for visiting my site. =)
Is it necessarily needed to have reservation on this resort? And are they often during christmas and new year's day?
DeleteHi Kathryn. During our stay in 88, we opted to reserve ahead of time because it was the peak season. If you're planning to stay there during the holidays, I suggest to have an early reservation.
DeleteThis article is helpful and well-written. You made me interested going to this resort, really. Would you have an idea how many persons could each room, from Nipa Hut to Small Kubo, could accommodate? Kudos! And, thank you in advance. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your positive feedback Marc. =)
DeleteRegarding the accommodation of each room, the small kubo could fit 2 people (3 if you have a kid), The biggest Villa Room could fit up to 5. =) Hope that helps.
Hi! Your tips are surely helpful pero ask ko lang po if strict sila sa swimming attire? We made a reservation for Saturday and my friend forgot to ask about it. Thanks po...
ReplyDeleteHi! Strict sila sa swimming attire especially sa hot spring nila. =)
DeleteEnjoy your stay in 88!
Thanks for this post hindi ko makita ang website nila at least here nababasa ko pa reviews thanks for making this.
DeleteHello Gerro! You're welcome! Thanks also for the support! =)
DeleteHi! Yung 500 na entrance fee is until what time? We're planning a night swimming there kasi :) Would you know how much is the entrance fee for children?:)
ReplyDeleteHi yung 500 entrance fee is just for day time swimming. =) If you're planning to have a night swimming I highly suggest that you stay for the night. =)
DeleteRegarding children fee it's the same rate with adults.
You made me interested going to this resort, really.
ReplyDeleteThank you. I do hope I would be able to write an article about one of the hotels there in Manali.
Deletehi, plan ko pumunta dyan, ano ung mga amenities nila sa 500 entrance. and kung overnight how much and ung amenities.
ReplyDeleteHi there! Yung sa P500 entrance yun plus swimming to sawa. If overnight ka, you'd enjoy the mini bar (food not free) beside the pool and siyempre yung cottages. Wala nang extra charge yung iba pang amenities. =)
Deletethis is the most informative blog about 88 resort.. dami ko na-open di ko makita yung infos na gusto ko malaman.. thanks for posting the room/cottages rates.

DeleteWelcome. :) as far as I remember ung kubo sa labas ang cr beside the pool. The bigger ones like the villa has one. The standard room sa labas din.
DeleteThank you for the info! For overnight stay, bukod pa ba yung entrance fee and room fee? :)
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome Wilkus. For the overnight kasama na dun yung entrance fee. You can't go on an overnight sa 88 without renting a room. =)

ReplyDeleteHi Anonymous thanks for visiting my blog! Yung Day tour nila 10AM to 7:30PM. Wala silang night swimming unless you rented a kubo (which means magoovernight ka sa 88).
Deletehi ask ko lang kung ksama ba sa entrance fee yun massage at spa nila? tnx
ReplyDeleteNope. Sadly hindi kasama yun. Sana meton silang package na may ganun para mas masaya.
DeleteNope. Sadly hindi kasama yun. Sana meton silang package na may ganun para mas masaya.
DeleteHi there, I just wonder if the 2500 rental for the small kubo rum answers the entrance fee for you and ur wife or it only covers one of u? Also, until wat tym are we allowed if we plan to have overnyt stay. Thanks a lot! ö
ReplyDeleteHi! If you're staying overnight kasama na yung entrance dun for 2 if small kubo ang ibu-book niyo. Overnight is 7:30PM onwards. Book online for updated details.

DeleteI think I answered that in one of the comments.
DeleteHi, itatanong ko lang po kung strict sila sa pagdadala ng food? pinaplano po kasi namin na mag overnight, pede po bang magpasok ng pagkain? :)
ReplyDeleteDuring our time we ate in Max's for dinner and we brought the leftovers back to the resort. Wala namang sumita. hehehe.
Deletejc here.. hi, great blog!! just bookmarked,
ReplyDeleteplan nmin pumunta sa 88 resort next month..
we are trying stay the night at the villa.
ilan ang max capacity at facilities dun?
Hi there JC! Thanks for the compliment. =)
DeleteThe Villa could accommodate a small family. It's safe to say na 4-6 people ang pwede. Basically the Villa is just a place to stay in. The facilities are all in the resort. =)
thanks a lot!! anu ung allowed n swimming attire? white shirt pwede? sa mga cousins n conservative.. hehehe ;)
DeleteHello again JC. Well kung wala namang abs na ipapakita then it's better na mag shirt nalang. LOL
DeleteKidding aside, it's better if you dish out the shirts. Lahat ng pool nila mainit. Keep in mind shirts absorb water. Kung mainit yung tubig lapnos balat mo.
hi there! planning to go there tomorrow pde ba walk-in dun sa pagkuha ng room for overnight stay?
ReplyDeletePwede naman po kuya. Kaso it's always better to book just in case. =)

Deleteu did a very good job for this info.thanks.. pero medyo nalilito lang po ako if ung rent per room, can stay for 24 hours or 12 hours lang??
ReplyDeleteHi there. Yung overnight stay is 7:30PM onwards. If 24 hours yun siguro overstay na yun. so 12 hours lang. =)

DeleteHello! If you went out for lunch, you're not going to pay for another 500 again right? would they give you something or what so you can re-enter the resort?

ReplyDeletehi.magkano po ung macha2rge kung maooverstay po kami?
ReplyDeleteHello Clyde! I'm sorry but I don't know the answer to that. =) hahaha. Di ko pa nasusubukang magoverstay sa isang lugar. Just a guess... baka pabayarin kayo ng overnight or entrance fee. Kung magooverstay kayo for your day tour, for sure susunduin kayo ng staff to inform you na lalagpas na kayo ng oras. Kung sa overnight naman, for sure iiinform din kayo ng staff na lagpas na kayo sa oras. =) Hope that helps!
DeleteAsk ko lang po kung until wat tym ang stay sa overnigth???
ReplyDeleteHi there! It's 7:30PM onwards. =)
DeleteHi neil. Hehe your blog was cool. And some info. Answer may quest. Its just dat. Na confse lng q s ibng info. Just to clarify 2500 dats already included the entrance fee 500 right?!

Like s pool,activities and etc. Hehe tnx
ReplyDeleteYup. kasama na ang entrance pag magrerent ka for overnight. For 2 na yun if dun ka lang sa kubo.
DeleteHi Niel, thanks for ur blog..so helpful..nyway, if 3 kme mg avail ng overnite do u think 2.5k pdin un or my additional ng 500?
DeleteHi Penny! If bata naman yung kasama no need na pero kung adult I think you have to arrange for an extra bed kung papayag sila or a bigger room. =)
DeleteHello po. ask ko lang po if kumuha kami ng nipa hut room yung 7k lang ang babayaran wala ng entrance? and anong room po yung good for 10 persons? thanks po .
DeleteHi Tintin! Yup wala nang entrance fee yun, Yung Villa I guess could hold as much as 10 people.

Kevin here!
Hey Kevin! Since 4 kayo I suggest standard or Villa irent niyo. However, you have a point...
DeleteSummer ngayon tapos hotsprings ang trip niyo. Pero gaya nga ng sabi nila kanya kanyang trip lang yan. Kayo go!
Hi neil.. This blog is very helpful.ive back read the
ReplyDeletequestion and u really took time to answer. Thanks much! Im confused though with the overnight stay. Check in is 1:30,check out is 11:00am the following day requires room to stay right? And if im going to take the standard room for us, hubby and daughter, the rate of the room covers the entrance fee for the three of us. Am i correct?
Hi there. Yes the overnight stay starts 1:30PM and you can check out 11AM the next day.
DeleteIf you avail of any room it automatically covers the entrance fees. =)
Hope that helps.
Hi po... ask ko lng kung may private bathroom na ung standard room nila?
ReplyDeletemeron na po bang private cr ung standard room nila?
ReplyDeleteHi there! sorry for the late reply. Nung binisita kasi namin yung 88 sa kubo lang kami walang CR pero katabi lang noon ang CR so labas lang ng room and yun na. Pero yung malalaki atang room may sariling CR. =)
DeleteAircon ba yun small kubo nila?
ReplyDeleteAircon ba small kubo nila?
ReplyDeleteHi Michael. You'd be surprised. Aircon yung small kubo kahit na 90% siyang gawa sa cogon.
Deleteyour blog is very helpful and TRUE..up to this time 88 is very well maintained as per my sister who visit there last May 18, 2014..and we're also planning to go there! But the food
ReplyDelete..i think it's much better to eat at fastfood and resto outside the resort ;)
Thank you so much Marites.
DeleteHahaha that's true, I told you it's better to eat outside. =)
Hi Neil.Just to let you know that you are Amazing men! :) I'm planning to go there with my girlfriend by first or 2nd week of June 2014. Of course Over night stay P2,500 (Small Kubo Room) for 2 without entrance fee or other charges. Right? My question is free parking din ba or safe ba yung parking area nila? Thank you and Godbless. :)
ReplyDeleteHi Rich! yup tama yung details mo. Regarding sa parking area safe dun as long as nakalock ang kotse mo. =)
DeleteHello po. :) thankyou po sa blog nato. Hehe. Ask ko lang po kung magkano po spa sknila at kung san po malapit yung resort :) salamat po. -Chimme

DeleteAwkei :) Thank you po :)
DeleteYou're welcome! =)
DeleteHello your blog is really helpful, and thank you for answering all the queries of the people. But I'm confused regarding overnight stay, you said that it starts at 7:30pm onwards... but what about the check in time (1:30pm?) and check out time (11am?). I mean, if ever we opt to rent the small kubo (P2500) so the P2500 will cover our whole stay there from 1:30pm to 11 am? Or do we still have to pay the entrance fee P500? I just want to clarify things, para less hassle when we arrive there. Thank you in adv.! :)
ReplyDeleteIt's 1:30PM Check in time - 11:00AM the next day. If you rent a kubo it means you're going to stay for the night (no need for the entrance fee pang day tour lang yun. Hope that helps my friend,
DeleteHi po ask ko LNG ung 2500 na kubo pwd ang 3 years old.. At HND po ba ngbago rate nila till now?thank u 4 the info..thumps up
ReplyDeleteHi there! Yup pwede yung 3 year old sa kubo. Regarding the rate kung nagtaas man yun minimal lang.
DeleteWe're pty of 9 (family) and want to stay overnight, just want to ask what type of room can you recommend? I also want to ask if they do allow extra bed if the number of person exceeds? Hope to hear from you :)
ReplyDeleteHi the Villa Room would do. You can ask them if they could add more beds. =)
DeleteHi Neil :) Thank you for your amazingly helpful blog and replies. You're so patient and humorous pa rin :) i know this is a first but would you know if they allow pets (a small dog in our case) for the day tour? Also is it PWD friendly? We plan to go there with my Mom kasi. She needs a place to nap in kahit paano during the day po sana. Again, thank you and best regards :)
ReplyDeleteHi Martina! I'm sorry but 88 is not a pet friendly place. Your small dog might get lost in the spacious area of the resort. Plus it might fall in one of the hot springs. The resort is PWD friendly though. There are plenty of places for your mom to stay. =)
DeleteHi Neil :) thank you for your very helpful blog and most especially for your patience and kind replies to all the comments. May i just ask if you saw any info there at 88 if they are pet-friendly and PWD-friendly? Thanks again for your helpful blog. God bless you.
ReplyDeleteHi there! I'm sorry but I doubt if the resort could accommodate your pet. =(
DeleteHowever, the place is a good place for your mom to relax. =)
Thank you sir! nice job! Very Informative po.

Deletehi.. plan namin mag overnight sa resort and i heard medyo expensive daw ung foods nila. I wanna ask if may mLapit ba na fast food sa labas ng resort? and since u mentioned na pmunta kau sa SM Calamba, ilang minutes ung travel papunta sa SM? thanks..
ReplyDeleteHi there ms Kristine. There is a Max's restaurant about 5-10 minutes away. You could ride a jeep to it. Regarding SM Calamba... I'm not sure how far it is. Sorry.
Deleteano po ang mobile no. nila?
ReplyDeleteHi there Mark, Wala po akong makuhang details about sa Mobile. Try calling the landline. =) Sorry pal
DeleteKung manggaling kong calamba mo ssakyan ko ppunta ng 88?
ReplyDeleteAny vehicle heading to UP Los Banos would do. =)
DeleteNice and very informative blog.. Thanks for this blog nakapag decide aq where to celebrate our 9th anniversary! I saw this in metrodeal and look for some review yours was very helpful.. I would like to ask if pagbaba po ng bus we need to ride another transportation?
ReplyDeleteBy the ways thanks for your itinerary when we went to tagaytay. Kudos :-)
Hi Xarah! Once you board down the bus nasa harap ka na mismo ng resort. =)
DeleteYou're welcome Xarah! =)
Hello! May I ask if what are the amenities included with the 2.5k aside from entrance fee, pools, and the small kubo? Thank you so much and keep up the good work.
ReplyDeleteBasically un na lahat ang amenities that you get sa small kubo room. Food is not included.
Delete:)
ReplyDeleteHi blogger! is the entrance fee the same for overnight stay? and do you know whether the rate for accommodation is the same din if we plan to stay ng 7pm-5pm? thanks so much for the info!
ReplyDeletehi. you already answered my first inquiry na pla from previous comments. sorry for the redundancy haha. can you inform us nalang if you know kung we need to pay additional fees if we stay from 7pm-5pm the next day haha thanks talaga! :)
ReplyDeleteHi Ms. Gia!
DeleteSadly if you're going to extend from 7pm to 5pm (tama ba? or 7pm to 5am?) may additional pay na yun. Pero baka di naman kasing laki ng entrance fee for day tour.
bawal b food? why do u have to eat outside
ReplyDeleteAng alam ko po may corkage fee sila kasi meron silang sariling kainan sa resort. We ate outside kasi mas mura po dun. =)
Deletegood day!
ReplyDeletesir tanung ko lang kung okay lng bang pumasok kami ng maaga sa 1:30pm for hotel accomodation? naisip ko kasi kung dodoble b ung byad namin if in case mpaaga kami... kunyare... 12pm p lng dun n kami.. pag nagbyad kami ng entrance iba p din ung byad ng entrance for hotel accomodation? papatong po b un?
Hi there!
DeleteI think it's safe to ask them kung pwede yung ganung set up.
Pero I think they would allow you to check in early. =)
Hi Neil! i would like to know if that 2500 is inclusive of the entrance fee already. im kinda confused kasi.. hehe thank you :)
ReplyDeleteHi there! It's already included. =)
DeleteWow. thanks neil, i really like your blog. keep up. miel here btw. :)
DeleteHi miel! You're welcome!
Deletehi there Neil! i am so blessed to have found your blog, it's so phenomenal! anyway, there will be five of us going for an overnight stay and i was wondering if they're going to let us avail of just the standard room then we'll just pay for additional mattresses?
ReplyDeleteHi there Levie! Thanks for leaving a comment.
DeleteThe standard room is good only for 2 pax. I doubt that they would allow all of you to stay in one room. They might suggest that you guys rent another standard room then probably charge you 200 for an extra mattress. =) Hope that helps
thank you so much Neil, youve been very helpful!
DeleteYou're very much welcome Levie!
DeleteWent at 88 twice already! Place was amazing and relaxing! :) Thanks Mr.Neil, your blog helped me a lot! :)
ReplyDelete=) Thank you for the positive feedback my friend!
DeleteI heard a lot of Hotspring Resort and Spa in Calamba Laguna and I can't wait to visit the place. Nice post, this is something new experience for me and my family to try the hot springs. It is good for rainy season to try something warm.
