Our Adventures: Thunderbird Resorts, Binangonan


We had our first official (after the wedding) honeymoon in Thunderbird Resorts in Binangonan Rizal, it was sort of a last minute thing and we didn't really want to spend so much on the honeymoon so in a not-so well thought of plan we decided to settle on Thunderbird Resorts-which is like a stone's throw away from our house. All in all we enjoyed our stay in Thunderbird Resorts- it was more of a get away and relaxing honeymoon than any of the adventures that we've recently had. 

We wanted to bring my boss from the US to the resort since she plays the machines in the Casinos, now when Paul and I were here for our honeymoon we didn't get to play any of the Casino games. 

Our accommodations came with a complimentary P300.00/each coupon but you can only use it for the table games and when Paul and I went up the casino at around 4:00AM there were still people playing the tables and we just decided not to play since we had a feeling they were going to eat us alive :p 

So during our recent trip to Thunderbird last November 17- we really had the casinos as our agenda :) 

Resort Entrance

A room in Thunderbird would cost around P5,300.00 for the weekday and P5,600 for the weekend but they also have a day trip package, for P1,000.00/person this already includes being able to use the amenities, P900.00 consumable for food and drinks plus the P300.00 coupon for table games. :) It wasn't a bad deal at all and this is what we availed of when we went to the resort. 


Unfortunately when we got to the Casino there was a dress code for Men- they could not enter the casino wearing slippers, sleveless, sando etc. So it was just the ladies who went over to the casino to play the machines. :) 

Now I've never played in the casino and thinking that I might have beginner's luck my boss gave me P500.00 to play with in the machines. After some time--and realizing that I did not have beginner's luck I cashed out at P200.00- although I would say that I still had some kind of beginner's luck since we played with the P200.00 ticket and let's just say that it grew an amount which was enough for us to have dinner outside :)






After the casino we still had 30 minutes to enjoy the pool; since the day trip package was only from 9:00am-5:00pm. It's always a great swim in the pool at Thunderbird resorts and this is because of the great view that the pool has of Laguna de Bay :) 



We had lunch by the pool bar and this is where we 'consumed' our P900.00 each on food and drinks. Take note that lunch and drinks were served a little too slowly for our taste :p but it was still good none the less.

Lovely Gazebo- great place to have a wedding :) 




Don't be fooled- it's a faux sandcastle. 







Thunderbird Resorts in Binangonan is always a great place to stay and relax especially for Paul and I since it's so close to our house and we can always opt to go here when we're really not in an extra adventurous mood :)
