Anvaya Cove is a luxury resort that is perfect for relaxing weekend getaways with your friends or loved ones.
Anvaya Cove is an exclusive seaside development located in Morong, Bataan.
Its name is a word from the Sanskrit language which means "family," thus aptly
defining what luxury family getaways are. That being said, Anvaya Cove is a holiday spot that both you and your kids will surely love.
4 Ways to Enjoy a Leisurely Weekend at Anvaya Cove with Kids
Our experience at Anvaya Cove
Some days are so hectic that finding a few moments to breathe and slow down seems as elusive as a pin in a haystack. Furthermore, planning for a trip, when you have a lot of things going on in your head, becomes a heavy chore when it should have been otherwise on ordinary days.

| Enjoying the views |
As such, when we were invited by our friends to tag along with them to
Anvaya Cove, we readily gave in and said yes without hesitation or second
thoughts.
A quick overnight weekend retreat, thinking about nothing else -- no
plans, no itineraries, and, especially, no work -- is more than enough to
recharge our weary minds.
Take note though that since Anvaya Cove is an exclusive community, you
need to be sponsored by a member or resident for you to book a
stay in the resort.
Our friends had a business client who happened to be a club member at
Anvaya Cove and who was willing to sponsor our stay and we were to
contribute only a minimal amount.
How to go to Anvaya Cove
All things set, we were northbound one early Saturday morning,
traversing the North Luzon Expressway even before the morning
sunshine.
It's best to bring a private vehicle with you because there is no public transportation inside Anvaya Cove; you have to use your own car to go from one point to the next. It's also a long drive from the main gate to the residential and recreational areas.
After we passed through NLEX and SCTEX, we were in Subic, Zambales by around 8:00AM. In Subic, there are directional road signages that lead motorists to Anvaya Cove. If you could not locate the Anvaya Cove signs,
look for ones that indicate the direction to Morong Gate.
Commuting to Anvaya Cove is not a wise option because, as mentioned
earlier, the only way to travel around the resort community is through
your own vehicle, unless you really want to take long hikes and bear the scorching heat of the sun.
Our rented unit
We rented a whole unit at Anvaya Cove. It was big; it had two bedrooms,
a bathroom, a dining area, a living room, and a kitchen.

| Our unit |
It had all the appliances that we need such as a refrigerator, a TV, a
rice cooker, an electric stove, and a water heater, to name a few. There are also plates and utensils, as such, there is no problem with cooking your own meals in your unit.
 |
| Our bed |
As for the bedroom, there was a queen-size bed inside that can fit three to four people. There were also pull-out beds so there were adequate spaces to sleep in for all of us.
How to enjoy the weekend in Anvaya Cove
Indulging in a day of leisure and getting our dose of peace and quiet were our primary objectives for going to Anvaya Cove. And that was exactly what we did.
Here are the top three things that you can do to make the most out of
your stay in Anvaya Cove:
1. Cool down in the swimming pool
First off, enjoy the swimming pool at the clubhouse. It was a big pool
that was only 4 feet in its deepest section.

It was kid-friendly, that's for sure, but there were also several
lifeguards roaming around the edges of the pool so peace of mind is
ascertained for guests’ maximum enjoyment.
2. Swim on the beach
After swimming in the pool, we then took a dip on the beach. It was
certainly not as breathtaking as the other popular beaches in the
country.

The sand was also cream-colored to grayish and it was not fine.
However, but the beach was good enough for a dose of sun, saltwater,
and the sea breeze.
3. Try Anvaya's recreational and sporting activities
There are a host of other recreational and sporting activities that guests can avail of but at a cost. One may inquire from the Recreation and Leisure Department (793-9000 or clubactivities@anvayacove.com) for details.
4. Take a walk around the beach club
You can take a leisurely walk around the beach as well as the club.
Anvaya Cove is surrounded by mountains, trees, and other
greeneries.
A quick commune with nature and a breath of fresh air can do wonders
and take away your stress.
Dining in Anvaya Cove
Several restaurants in Anvaya Cove cater to one's taste or fancy. There is Bamboo Cafe, an all-day restaurant that serves a
variety of Filipino, Asian, Western and Italian cuisines.

There is also Pawikan Beach Bar and Grill, a beachfront al-fresco
dining area that specializes in seafood and barbecue. For cocktails and coolers, one may visit the Tower Bar and Sunset Bar.
We wanted to try the food so we ordered at the clubhouse. I think the food here is just brought out from Bamboo Cafe. The food is good,
especially the bibingka and puto bumbong but, as can be expected, it was a little overpriced.

If you do not want to eat in Anvaya Cove's restaurants, you are free
to bring rice, fresh meat and seafood, and vegetables that you can
cook in your unit.
We brought with us uncooked rice, fresh pork, and some noodles so
dinner, as well as breakfast the next day, was not a problem for
us.
We also had a few rounds of drinks after dinner and, after that, we were all in snooze land immediately. We woke up early and, after breakfast, we spent some more time on the beach and in the swimming pool.
Epilogue
We checked out early in the afternoon, made a quick stop at Puregold in Subic, then headed back to Manila. This quick getaway was enough to revitalize our minds and bodies and keep us going until our next adventure.
